A Prediction for Tomorrow
Please hold comments and correspondence until my return.
‘Sheltering’ Parkland School Cop Not the ‘Only One’ with No Duty to Protect
So much for those who would prohibit their countrymen from keeping and bearing arms. So much for those who claim the police will protect you. So much for those who disparage self-defense as vigilantism. [More]Sure Scot Peterson's now getting a pension and benefits most can only dream of, but ask yourself one question: Would you want to be him and live with such self-realization on your soul?
An Incalculable Loss
Rapper XXXTentacion has been shot dead in Deerfield Beach, the Broward Sheriff’s Office has confirmed. [More]Ain't no "aspiring" about it.
And now for a moment of reflection:
The rapper, accused of beating his pregnant girlfriend, was slapped with 15 new felony charges in December, including witness tampering and witness harassment.Forgive me for not having high hopes for Junior.
Another Broward "gundeath." If only the authorities would disarm you and me.
Because SPLC knows who's to blame.
Insult to Injury
The school security monitor who was skewered, and ultimately transferred, for not stopping the gunman at the Parkland, Florida, high school was suspended last year for sexually harassing one of the victims, Meadow Pollack, and another female student. [More]Might as well blame gun owners for that, too...

Bank of Amerika
Bank execs assure Parkland parents of commitment to stop financing assault weapons makers [More]So where's the "staunch supporter of the Second Amendment" in Congress proposing a bill to make such economic fascist discriminators ineligible for taxplunder-funded insurance and "bail outs"
Curses! Foiled Again!
Three men accused of trying to rob a couple Friday afternoon as they walked to their car outside a DeKalb County Kroger were shot in the shopping center’s parking lot, police said. [More]Kroger...? The place the Bloom-Borg Moms tried to strong-arm?
We asked Shannon Watts for an official reaction to the DGU:

Shart All Night
Twenty-two people, including a teenager, were injured early Sunday in a shooting at a 24-hour art festival in Trenton, New Jersey, the Mercer County Prosecutor's Office said. [More]But...but...but...
They don't have much effect on the Tahaij's of the world, do they?
Metastasized 'Progressivism'
The 4 Stages Of The Collapse Of Venezuela [More]And the cancer is spreading.
[Via Bracken]
UPDATE: Might as well celebrate. Good thing there were no guns.
Say, didn't Bracken write something about a stampede once...?

We're the 'Only Ones"-in-Training Covered Up Enough
“I can’t file a report for false reporting against them unless I know their names,” Westbrook told Campus Reform. “This is a problem because these cadets are training to become police officers,” she explained. “Making false reports like this is not only damaging to my reputation but the cadets’ as well.” [More]You know, "the officer"...
There's something to be said for an education that provides such practical real-world experience.

Not Supporting the Narrative
Armed Civilians Shoot Would-Be Mass Shooter At Washington Walmart [More]Can't have that! Why, there oughtta be a law!
Until then, continue social justice shaming them into completing their conversion to the dark side.
[Via Michael G]
UPDATE: Florida, too.

A 'Gun Control Trailblazer'
Gun-Control Group to Honor Hillary Clinton for ‘Unwavering’ Commitment to Passing Strict Gun Laws [More]And she'll be honored to show up with her armed security detail to accept the award.
I wondered how this could be the Gungrabby Gabby Group's 25th anniversary but then recalled the name change, which a lot of these charlatans seem to find prudent in order to mask their intent.
I still wonder if Hillary will ever answer my question:
Should Juanita Broaddrick have had a gun to defend herself from rape?It seems like a pretty straightforward "yes" or "no" kind'a question.

In Case You Didn't Realize You Were in Crisis Mode
This Father's Day, men are experiencing a crisis of masculinity. The solution? More feminism. Men experience violence and oppression because gender norms are not changing. In other words, feminism isn't killing men — toxic masculinity is. [More]The only things toxic are the insane demands to deny reality. NBC "Thinker" Noah Berlatsky sounds like he's trying to convince himself.
Does he ride side-saddle, too?
UPDATE: Sorry-- looks like I scanned too fast and made a false assumption about the Canadian.

They've Gotta Find Something to Complain About
It took days to figure out where all the bullets flew when a man licensed to carry a gun exchanged shots with a masked 16-year-old boy and killed him on a busy street in Oak Park last year. [More]It was investigated, no criminality on the part of the defender was determined, and the results pretty much confirmed what we can instinctively infer from the above lede.
Heck, it sounds like he did a better job than most "Only Ones."
The "problem" is, Katherine Rosenberg-Douglas and Jennifer Smith Richards of the Chicago Tribune would rather see their readers dead than armed. Rather than just report successful DGUs, their agenda is to cast doubt on bearing arms and feed the Violence Policy Center's "Concealed Carry Killers' machine.

And Now, the Stars of the Show...
Parkland survivors will appear at gun control rally ... [More]What personal qualifications, achievements, areas of competency or other factors aside from the dice breaking the right way for them do they bring to the table?
The gospel of mandating even more be utterly helpless seems to have escaped "reporter" (publicist) Bryan Lowry, who evidently couldn't find a voice that challenges the narrative he wanted to help spread to include in his "news" piece.

Mayors Scapegoating Guns for Failed ‘Progressive’ Policies and Own Criminality
“Bipartisan” is a euphemism for overwhelmingly dominated by Democrats and RINOs, used so they can give the impression that citizen disarmament is an American value. And of course this is all political theater, as nothing they demand will have the slightest impact on the violence that their own policies and edicts make inevitable. [More]Hey, they've gotta do something to provide cover for the incompetence, coercion and fraud they rely on.
Nice Beam in Your Eye There, 'Your Highness'
The United Nation’s top human rights official on Monday called on the Trump administration to end its "zero-tolerance" policy, which has resulted in the separation of migrant families at the southern border, calling the practice abusive. [More]"Prince" Zeid bin Ra’ad Zeid al-Hussein, eh? What did Mr. Payne counsel us on hereditary "leaders"?
And he was "an officer in the Jordanian desert police"? I wonder why his outcry isn't against "exploitation and abuse" of migrant workers, or the "50,000 refugees from Syria ... trapped in the desert on the border with Syria in appalling conditions" with "[d]eath sentences ... imposed and executions carried out"...?
I also wonder why U.S. tax payers are still underwriting the global Mos Eisley Cantina known as the UN, and if Zeid here wouldn't be more helpful carrying some water.
Raging Bullcrap
Six people are charged with the running of an international prostitution ring, whose call-girls entertained the actor Robert de Niro, the former tennis player, Wojtek Fibak, two senior (but unnamed) French politicians and several Gulf princes. The agency specialised in tricking, or trapping, star-struck teenage girls into selling their bodies with the promise of careers as models or actresses. [More]Too bad the punk's not on Twitter so he could be goaded.
