America's Got Talentlessness
Georgia teen, 14, STUNS the America's Got Talent's judges with a powerful rap about gun violence, which she wrote in memory of her father who was shot and killed before her birth [More]Because nothing says "Stop the violence" like rap! Just ask Dad:
Camoflauge's background formed the perfect "gangsta rap" resume. He grew up in Savannah's public housing projects, had a record of arrests on drug possession charges, and suffered minor injuries in a shooting last year. He also spent three months in jail in 2000 charged with murder in the shooting death of 17-year-old Kenneth Capers. Camoflauge was released after a grand jury failed to indict him.And isn't the "celebrity" panel just oozing in "progressive" virtue! Especially Simon Cowell!

“Plaintiff’s claims share a common question: whether there is constitutional duty under the Fourteenth Amendment for the police to intervene to protect a citizen from criminal conduct by third parties,” Judge Norman K. Moon’s opinion says. “Because I find this duty is not ‘clearly established,’ his claims are barred by qualified immunity.” [More]Who knew?

A Familiar Pattern
FBI got tips about Oklahoma City shooting suspect’s videos, did nothing [More]I'm not sure what the proper protocol should have been because we don't want the feds to be able to haul someone in without probable cause and full due process, and I'm not sure there aren't "demons" of one sort or another lurking in TVs.

When the customer dropped to the ground, the clerk fired three rounds at Ahorrio, prompting him to drop his knife and flee the store.

Knowing Your Place
The memo would be more accurate if it stated that anyone who fails to unquestioningly submit to all the TSA's demands would be found guilty of insubordination. [More]Well if you wouldn't get uppity, there wouldn't be a problem.
You clear on that, Mom?

Last week, the Department of Justice released an updated study from the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) showing that 83 percent of prisoners released by states are re-arrested within nine years of their release. 44 percent of released state prisoners were arrested during the first year after release, 68 percent were arrested within three years, and 79 percent within six years. [More]You don't say.

Lowering the Barr
How the right is defending Roseanne Barr's racist tweets [More]There's a difference between "defending" and pointing out the racist hypocrisy of others getting away with essentially the same thing when the butt of the joke is white.
That's the issue, not the transparent media attempt to conflate "conservatives" with racists.
Because there's really nothing else about her worth "defending."
AMA’s Anti-Gun Proposals Put Political Agenda Over Science
AMA meddling to undermine a fundamental right is nothing short of malpractice. [More]The gunquacks are sticking their bills where they don't belong again.
