We’re the Only Ones Trigger-Happy Enough

Dashcam video from a police vehicle records 12 shots fired; one round from the less lethal shotgun and 11 rounds from the officer’s handgun. The vehicle then stopped. Chief Cox said no shots were fired from the vehicle and no officers were injured… The officers could face verbal discipline up to termination.[More]

What could you or I face? Then again, we’re not highly trained professionals…

Our State Fair is a Great State Fair!

According to Wisconsin Administrative Code, we do.

Ditto for Summit County Fair officials and complicit Ohio Republicans.

Sure have come a long way since Pat Boone, haven’t we?

Teenage Wasteland

The mayor of Raleigh, North Carolina, is weighing whether to impose a curfew for minors following a series of shootings and chaotic events over the Independence Day weekend, in which several fights broke out and nine people were shot amid a series of teen takeovers across the country. [More]

Teens“…

And as if a curfew is the real issue here.

Teenage Wasteland

16-year-old Darien Harris, who was charged as an adult, was sentenced to life in prison with the first eligibility for parole after 20 years. [More]

So it’s not life in prison, is it?

No worries. I’m sure anyone feral, cowardly, and retarded enough to indiscriminately fire into a group who is then immersed for decades in a brutal survival culture with like-minded beasts will be trustworthy again at age 38.

Going Through the Hoops

Annual basketball tournament in Lorain finds solution to gun violence [More]

“Real reporters” say this $#!+ and anyone dumb enough to rely on them to be informed just swallows it without question. Then again, Ariel Janel probably believes it, too.

I guess Anthony and Emily didn’t play b-ball.

What’s Willie’s excuse?

Happy Juneteenth, everybody!

Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before

“Last night in Queens, a memorial for a teen lost to gun violence turned to horror when gunmen opened fire on the crowd, including several young people who are now hospitalized. This cannot be our normal…” [More]

No, it’s not OUR normal, Kathy. But it’s pretty unexpected (oops) for a significant segment of YOUR consituency.

As is blaming it on “gun violence”…

Classy joint sure to attract all the right people, no…?

Another Great Reason to Disarm You and Me

A 15-year-old boy is facing serious weapons charges after being arrested in possession of a semiautomatic rifle in northeast Portland on Monday. [More]

Bet the breeder sow and sperm donor are real prizes…

No, of course we can’t tell you who he is so you can thank him for adding fuel to idiot Dana Polehanki’s fire.

Boy, times sure have changed.

THAT’ll Teach ’em

Four teenagers arrested after crashing an allegedly stolen Kia during a police pursuit in Edina have been released from custody as prosecutors weigh charges against two of them… Eden Prairie police spokeswoman Joyce Lorenz said two of those arrested were 16 years old, one was 17 and one was 15. All have been released, Lorenz said. [More]

No, of course we can’t tell you who they are.

Who thinks this is the last we’ll hear of them?

Flanagan’s Folly

A 14-year-old boy who was given “many second chances” after being arrested multiple times before is suspected of wreaking havoc in the community with dozens of recent crimes, and Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb said he is fed up. [More]

Fed up enough to name the little reptile and throw his @$$ in a cage until he’s 21, adding on additional time for infractions he’s sure to commit behind bars?

Face it, the retard will never be trustable without a custodian, or even with one.

And speaking of retards:

This is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things

Chaos reigned at the grand opening of Six Flags Over Georgia … with mobs of unruly teenagers fighting inside the theme park, escalating to a massive police response and an officer-involved shooting. [More]

Well, I know where I’m not going.

Something tells me “poverty” and “systemic racism” are the least of these kids’ problems.
