We're the Only Ones With Balls Enough

A veteran police officer and his ex-girlfriend face simple assault charges for getting into a fight after attending the city's first police ball in 70 years, police said Friday...

He said he did not know the nature of Williamson's disability, but he suggested her ability to engage in a fistfight could raise questions about her permanent disability status.

What?

What did you think I meant?

Harvey,You're Doing a Heck of a Job

"I am very happy with FEMA's response so far," responded Vice Adm. Harvey E. Johnson Jr.

The news conference looked like a success in the Bush administration's effort this week to demonstrate it could respond competently to a disaster.

On Friday, however, the agency admitted that the softball questions were posed by FEMA employees, not reporters.

No wonder the government is so big on authorizing journalists.

Authorized Journalists Won't Authorize Ad

As hundreds stand outside to get into the Roanoke Valley Gun Show, hundreds are taking a stand inside against a local newspaper.
Annette Elliott owns the show.

She says earlier this week, the Roanoke Times rejected an advertisement for her show after the paper decided to stop selling ad space to shows with unlicensed dealers.

Roanoke Times...Roanoke Times...oh yeah, they're the ones who employ this idiot and published the names of gun owners...

DAMN You, John R-i-g-g-i-o!

A 20-year-old man suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the head while he was apparently playing with the gun at a South Side home Saturday night.

Who else's fault could it be?

This is a job for Snuffy!

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Lawbreakers protesting a lawful establishment--and getting away with it.

I guess if you're Snuffy Pfleger, doing the mayor's work if not the Lord's, you can. Funny--I wonder if he'd be as supportive of gun owners deciding which laws they want to publicly flout? [Insert Borat "Not!"]

I read another account that prominently featured a Virginia Tech "survivor" (i.e., lottery winner). This pathetic creature was helpless to protect himself and useless to those being murdered around him, yet is out there protesting that the rest of us should be rendered equally contemptible--under force of arms, of course.

We're the Only Ones Suckling Enough

A new crime-fighting project aims to collect data on all illegal firearms confiscated in Northeast Ohio, which law enforcement officials hope will make it easier to trace guns used in violent crimes.

Officials announced the project -- dubbed the Ohio Gun Crime Center -- Friday. It is part of an initiative to tackle gun violence in the region.

The initiative, the Northern Ohio Violent Crime Consortium, is paid for with a $5.9 million federal grant.

And, of course, it will have little effect except to increase the dependency bond between greedy Only Onelets and the federal sow's teats, assuring that loyalties will be directed toward a police state as opposed to a free one.

And Another Thing

We talked yesterday about the new Jane Harman Dissent Eradication bill. I forgot to mention the introduction date of this monstrosity, and can't help but wonder if it's coincidental or intentional.

This Day in History: October 28

General Sir William Howe, new Commander-in-Chief of the British army, issues a proclamation to the American residents of Boston forbidding any person from leaving the city on pain of death. He also orders citizens to organize into military companies in order to aid in the "defense" of their city.
