The Sgt. Shultz Defense

Loudoun Schools Did Not Record Multiple Alleged Sexual Assaults Over A Period Of Years Despite State Law, Records Show - Law also requires sex assaults to be reported to superintendent; superintendent claimed he did not know of any sexual assaults on school property. [More]
Even though they clearly broke the law, don't expect any to be assigned cellmates who can better explain the issue firsthand.

Nothing to See Here


 Austrian MP Eva Holzleitner collapses in the middle of a parliamentary session. She announced on Instagram that she had been vaccinated, stating that "vaccine skepticism is unfounded". 

Ladies and Gentlemen, vaccines are saf... [More]

There's nothing quite like a personal testimonial to help make my mind up.

Strictly Speaking

In her ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Marilyn J. Horan noted, “Although the courts owe ‘substantial deference’ to local zoning decisions, restrictions on rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment…must still satisfy intermediate scrutiny…At this stage and for purposes of the Motion for Preliminary Injunction, the Township has not provided evidence that the challenged Ordinance provisions…in fact serve the asserted government interests of health, safety, and welfare.” [More]

Good for the injunction, but what's the rationale for the First getting strict scrutiny and the Second getting second class treatment? What could be more compelling than "the security of a free State"?

Right Thinking Rewarded

Facebook will count activists and journalists as “involuntary” public figures and increase protections against harassment and bullying targeted at these groups, its global safety chief said in an interview this week. The social media company, which allows more critical commentary of public figures than of private individuals, is changing its approach on the harassment of journalists and “human rights defenders”, who it says are in the public eye due to their work rather than their public personas. [More]

That doesn't go for all, understand. They just don't want you calling lying leftists liars. Us wrong thinkers will still be punished.

Has anybody seen the Facebook commercials stumping for new internet regulations, that is, government backing for their censorship and disinformation practices?

Much Ado About Nothing More Than Some Idiots

 'Huge problem': Passengers are bringing a record number of guns to the airport, TSA says [More]

Who do they think they are, Donne Trotter?

I never will understand how anyone with a gun could be that oblivious. That said, if someone intended to, what do you think the security theater gropers would be able to do about it, particularly against several serious operators with a coordinated plan?

UPDATE: Leave it to a Biden USA to make a federal case out of it and for oath-breaking "Only Ones" to go along.

"Acting," eh? Anybody watching to see what Lindsey and the Vichycons will do?

When the Cat's Away...

 Wednesday is at least the third time the cats have escaped the owner's home.  [More]

If not enemy action then inexcusable incompetence...

Let's hope it doesn't eat Fifi, someone who knows how can lure it to safety, and the "Only Ones" don't just freak out and shoot on sight.

If He'd Just Listened and Stopped Crying...

 Tevin Branom, 21, is accused of beating his 3-year-old stepson so badly that he broke the boy’s ribs and killed him. [More]

He was just trying to be a real man...

Time to amend the law again: Anyone who can't be trusted with a child can't be trusted with oxygen.

F***** Around and Found Out

 “This is a tragic case in which two people died in a dispute over a mere $200 of firewood, and our thoughts and prayers are with their families." [More]

No, people died because they threatened the life of the wrong man.

We're the Only Ones Running Down Enough

Officer on trial for hitting and killing 12-year-old girl with police SUV [More]

I know they have no duty to protect us. I guess we'll find out if they have a duty not to kill us.

And All He's Gotta Do is Act Naturally

 Bernie Bros vow to make Sen. Sinema's life 'unpleasant' starting today [More]

Since when have communists ever made anyone's life pleasant?

Now that they let biological males use the women's room, carrying out the threat ought to be a snap.

We're the Only Ones Modeling Enough

Talk about a story dripping with diversity!

Now she can be a model prisoner.

Speaking of Empowering...

 'View' guest co-host explains why she's a gun owner: 'I felt very empowered' [More]

If her co-hosts have their way, the politicians they empower will take care of that.

Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Piers Morgan Paradise

Police failure to tackle violence against women 'infuriating,' UK PM Boris Johnson says [More]

Curious. The fact that women are denied the means to protect themselves isn't even mentioned.

So who else are the killers, aside from the example with the policeman? Might there be something else we're not being told?

And why is no one infuriated with Boris Johnson?

Thank You, Captain Obvious

Illegal immigration is destroying our country [More]

So is the "legal" kind under current suicidal policies. That this article doesn't even mention the political fallout seems either a Kid Shelleen moment or deliberate diversion.

Easy Targets

 A man armed with a bow fired arrows at shoppers in a small Norwegian town Wednesday, killing five people before he was arrested, authorities said. [More]

You know what would have stopped him?

Uh, never mind...

UPDATE:
Earlier, officials said that the suspect is a Danish citizen and Muslim convert who had previously been flagged by authorities over concerns that he had become radicalized.
Figures they're baffled as to motive...

We're the Only Ones Unreasoned Enough

 Babbitt shooting internal police docs reveal ‘no good reason for shooting,’ according to Judicial Watch [More]

Which makes Byrd a murderer and the Capitol Police accessories and coverup conspirators...

Point of Contention

Don't Know Much About History - New York’s Supreme Court brief on the Second Amendment is flawed. [More]

Far be it from me to challenge Prof. Halbrook's recounting of what was, but I will respectfully offer an alternative premise: New York knows exactly what the historical truth is and their arguments are not flawed, they are calculated lies.

Just like Gunwalker was not a "botched gun sting"...

UPDATE:

Halbrook then nicely deconstructs an anti-gun brief headlined by a "Vote Freedom First President" Supreme Court shortlister.

UPDATE: 

David Kopel weighs in with Amnesty International, a group that ought to know better than anyone about totalitarian brutality, siding with citizen disarmament.
