We're the Fauxnly Ones Pretextual Enough

 Police said he proceeded to ask the woman about her driving, asked for her information and briefly displayed what appeared to be a badge and a gun. [More]

But for the locked doors throwing him off his plan, it sounds like things could have gone very differently. 

I always advise on stories like this to be aware of the "Fauxnly Ones" archive because you never know when you might have to prove you had reason to doubt authenticity.

They're wildly popular fast-food places, always crowded, where people go because they enjoy the product, not because of politics and where plenty are employed. So look for the communists to not brook any defiance and to put the squeeze on them at the state level, which would destroy them.

And no, they can't move.

We're the Only Ones Media Savvy Enough

The ATF team on Tuesday put on a use-of-force seminar for members of the El Paso news media who report on crime issues. The “walk-in-their-shoes” perspective included interactive training that showed the journalists how routine traffic stops can become deadly shootouts and how officers must make the call to draw their guns in a matter of seconds. [More]

I guess that'll keep them from looking too closely at the goosestep in their jackboots perspective.

Releasing the Krakens

 Senator Joe Morrissey (D-Richmond) predicts that Virginia’s senate will vote to bring back parole in 2022 — “across the board,” meaning for even the most serious crimes, such as murder. Restoring parole could increase the number of murders, rapes, and robberies in Virginia. [More]

That's why Joe is against you having guns

That he could be elected again after assaulting and almost killing a man, losing his law license twice, teenage receptionist sex and just general sociopathy is confirmation that Edwin Edwards had no idea how far envelopes could be pushed with Democrat voters.
