What a big, brave man.
My favorite line:
"Officer McDonald was cleared of any wrongdoing."Yes.
Of course he was.

Notes from the Resistance...
"Officer McDonald was cleared of any wrongdoing."Yes.
Seven years ago, the streets swallowed up Clifton Montgomery and spat him into an Ohio prison after he was convicted of aggravated robbery and burglary...Money drove Montgomery, who was released from prison more than a month ago. Now he wants to steer youth away from the route he took.Yeah, the streets do that to me all the time, too. It's not like I have free will or anything.
Montgomery is one of many local people featured in Peace by Peace, an anti-gun violence documentary...
A gun stolen from a high ranking San Antonio police officer's car is now in the hands of thieves.Way to go, Rudy. Now, when some lowlife pops a cap into somebody with your negligently stored gun, maybe the San Antonio SWAT team can raid the wrong house again, and you can be out in front of the microphones swearing "everything was done by procedure."
It happened at Tokyo Steakhouse off of San Pedro Wednesday evening, while Deputy Chief Rudy Gonzales was at the restaurant off-duty.
A 38-year-old man was kidnapped in front of his house Thursday morning by three men armed with guns and dressed as police, authorities confirmed.And when you're conditioned to automatically submit to authority...
AN ELDERLY woman watched in terror as robbers shoved a gun in her son's mouth.What kind of sick control freak would demand a mother be helpless to protect her child? Or that a man should be helpless to protect his aged mother? And what degeneration of the human spirit must occur for sovereign, free-willed individuals to accept this as their lot in life?
The 81-year-old woman could only watch helplessly after three men forced their way into her flat demanding cash and threatening her son at gunpoint.
As New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg explained it, safety officers will use mobile scanners starting this spring, allowing them to make unannounced visits to city middle and high schools to check for weapons.Plus, our desire to indoctrinate them into the mindset of being inmates instead of citizens couldn't be more clear and compelling, either.
Students will be asked to go through detectors similar to those used in airports.
"Our reasons for doing this couldn't be clearer or more compelling," said Bloomberg. "We have zero tolerance for weapons of any kind in city schools."
Police officials said Barcott was visiting friends when he retrieved a gun and suggested they play Russian Roulette. He then loaded one bullet into the cylinder, spun it and closed it.Maybe if California passed a law making it illegal to "sell a handgun to an individual under 21 years of age..."
His friends told him not to fire, but Barcott put the gun to his head and pulled the trigger, police officials said.
Guns are bad. They fire bullets. They hurt people.Boring, overbearing, repetitive and negative: Yep, sounds like the antis to me.
That's the message "American Gun" hits its audience over the head with, using all the grace and finesse of a pistol whipping.
