Love "Only Ones" Style

Maybe it's because it's Valentine's Week, maybe there's just something in the air, but these all came to my attention in literally the space of a few hours yesterday--I did not set out looking for them.


WARNING: The stories are "adult" in nature, that is, if you consider sexual predation and perversion to be adult qualities. If you think you might be offended, stop reading now.



We're the Only Ones Rubbed the Wrong Way Enough
At least six Inglewood police officers are suspected of having on- and off-duty sex at massage parlors and other adult businesses targeted in a recent crackdown on the businesses, according to officials. Acting Chief Julius Davis said his department is investigating the allegations of sexual favors in exchange for protection from prosecution, but he added that there is no evidence of criminal acts.

"We have not found anything that indicates there's any criminal conduct involved," Davis said.

No, of course not, Chief. Between that and the rape the FBI is investigating, the mask-wearing, the gun-pointing, the exposing, the fact that nobody's been fired and you're conducting your own hen house investigation, why on earth would anyone suspect a crime has been committed? It sounds like just another day at the Inglewood PD...

We're the Only Ones Gender-Bending (Over) Enough
City Council members have asked the state attorney general's office to investigate claims of sexual misconduct, racism and brutality at the police department after residents complained officers were mistreating Hispanic immigrants.

What, you mean declaring itself a "sanctuary city" just ensured an undocumented victim pool in Maywood that could be exploited? Who could have guessed?

My favorite revelation:
One of the claims under investigation is that a high-ranking officer forced a transsexual man to have sex with him multiple times over seven years, the newspaper reported.

We're the Only Ones Coming Into Your Life (and Your Open Car Window) Enough
No one disputes that an on-duty Irvine police officer got an erection and ejaculated on a motorist during an early-morning traffic stop in Laguna Beach. The female driver reported it, DNA testing confirmed it and officer David Alex Park finally admitted it.

Hmmm. Sounds like a moving violation.

We're the Only Ones Exposed Enough

Former U.S. Rep. Joseph M. McDade has been charged with exposing himself to two women Jan. 18 near a southwest Florida beach, police there said Wednesday.

You'll recall that the "Only Ones" designation isn't reserved exclusively for LEOs, but applies to all government elites "with power and abilities far beyond those of mortal men."

I went after McDade over 10 years ago, first because he was a Republican who supported the federal "assault weapons" ban, but also, because when indicted for conspiracy, bribery and racketeering, the coward tried to use the Constitution's speech or debate clause to claim legal immunity.


"Isn't it hypocritical," I wrote at the time, "that this individual should reject the plain language of the Bill of Rights and then use a cynically manipulative misinterpretation of that same Constitution in a desperate attempt to save his skin?"

It looks like this time, McDade doesn't need anyone else to expose him for being what he is.

Boycott Succeeds in Removing Signs

A handful of local gun owners say they plan to boycott - when they can - businesses that post signs prohibiting concealed handguns under the state's new concealed carry law.
Mall Manager Dan Flores, who supports posting "No Guns" signs, just doesn't get it, does he?
"Just look at what happened at the Trolley Center," he said, referring to a shooting this week at a Utah mall, where a teen killed five people.
Yeah, just look, Dan. Those signs sure work great.

And in spite of her removing the signs, I'm afraid I'd still avoid anything run by A. J. Connard because of this life-endangering belief:
I'm not that afraid of people coming in with guns. I just turn myself and my employees over to the big man upstairs."
It reminds me of that old joke: "I sent you a boat, I sent you a helicopter..."

WarOnGuns regulars will recall this card, available as a free download to serve your boycotting needs...

Dang--he beat me to it :)

We're the Only Ones Open Enough

Question: What do the local "Only Ones" REALLY think about fellow citizens/law abiding gun owners?

At least in Manassas Virginia.
Sailor Curt provides the answer. Apparently some friends went to a pizza place, and since it serves beer, they switched from concealed carry to open, as required by law. A patron got his knickers in a wad and called 911, and "The Only Ones" proceeded to harass "The Tony's 7" as only 'The Only Ones" can.

My favorite part of the first-hand account:
Once outside, one of our party had a copy of the ABC letter explaining the legality of open carry and a copy of the VA State Police web page[Emphasis added--DC]. When approached, one of the group of officers said, "don't come over here and fight us" and that he "didn't need to see our damn letters". His supervisor, wasn't interested in talking either.

This Day in History: February 16

On this day in 1778, two future presidents of the United States, John Adams and his son, 10-year-old John Quincy Adams, sit in Marblehead Harbor, off the coast of Massachusetts, on board the frigate, Boston, which is to take them to France, where John Adams will replace Silas Deane in Congress’ commission to negotiate a treaty of alliance.
