The operator clearly confirms he intends to fire “two rounds.” He fires one shot. Enlarging the video to full screen appears to show him squeezing the trigger a second time with no results. [More]

Naturally, he has a criminal history.
And naturally, he didn't stop after the murder:
On Jan. 5, 2022, Badon was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Police from Humble say the assault charge was based on a Jan. 2, 2022, incident, in which the defendant shot a different man and then shot towards yet another outside of the Wilson Food Mart in the small, Texas town. Court records obtained by local ABC affiliate KTRK allege the same gun was later used to allegedly kill DueƱes with.

Actions Have Consequences
A Litle Bird Told Me...
I am hearing things...Could be bullshit, never know. I am hearing that Biden Inc is about to move on the Shockwave and similar firearms. (next week or so). My source says that ATF has begged them not to upend this particular can of worms but Just-Us employees without an understanding of the issue want to press forward with it as they see it as an easy win.All I can say is my guy's been right before.
Speaking of Being Underrepresented...

We're the Only Ones Surprising Enough
It's Only 'Commonsense'
Crockett declared that the struggle against Republicans for election integrity, etc., is a "war." Cross didn't merely agree, she upped the ante by a mile: "It is a war, it is indeed a war. And I have to say, they have won some battles, Jasmine, but we have to keep our eye on the war. And everybody needs to pick up a weapon and get involved because this is for the safety and lasting of the country." [More]
No Doubt an Indictment of 'Gun Laws'

His death is being investigated as a homicide. It is understood he died after a single bullet passed through the bedroom wall as he slept in bed. Police said they believed the incident was a random act involving individuals participating in the reckless discharge of firearms, local TV reported. [More]

Much Ado about an Anonymous Troublemaking Snitch
The Lafayette County Sheriff’s Office is defending one of its jail employees for her decision to wear attire featuring the Confederate flag years before she began working for the agency. [More]
As they should. The "anonymous tipster" feigning outrage over this is just a cowardly @$$hole doing it for personal reasons and deserves to be outed. That The Star assigned two reporters to it says plenty about them.

During an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union", Adams said that street cops can't seize guns fast enough given the constant stream of guns being supplied to NYC. [More]
Just what those who will not admit the irrefutable need-- more "gun control" blame games for the predators to ignore. But don't argue with me-- argue with Mr. Adams.
That Eric Adams sure is a different kind of mayor, isn't he, Tucker?

We Have Met the Enemy and He is Us
I’m not ruling out the idea that all of the seeming collapse could be a retrenching action, to get a better foothold, but if the American patriots don’t seize this moment and do some radical realignment, I mean ripping some things out by the root, not only for political stability going forward, but for economic stability, too, we’re going to wind up with something worse than war, worse than internal conflict, we’re going to have wasted the best chance at freedom we’ll ever have.

At Least They're Not 'Rightwing Extremists'
While rivalries between gangs or crews may drive killings, the underlying disputes frequently stem from petty insults, criminologists and local officials told Fox News.

As Sure as Your Name's Kate
Wow!!! Talking about coordination!! Oregon Governor Kate Brown and Everytown/Moms Demand Action conspiring together to get a bunch of Everytown’s people to shill for legislation, in which Kate Brown will promote their stories on social media. Straight outta the playbook! [More]
Aren't there laws against government workers engaging in activism while on the clock and using public facilities and resources? Not that they don't do that and worse all the time. Some day, I'd like to see an honest audit of state and city worker social media posts and check the timestamps to see if they were being paid to work.
Kate, you just plain bad, you know that?

Well, Lynley Janet Rayburn* has been wearing orange for 14 years... Maybe when she gets out she can become a "commonsense gun safety law" motivational speaker.
And, oh, look, the victim took gun-grabber advice and gave them what they wanted:
Smith and Rayburn hogtied him and raided the house, which at the time was stocked up with Christmas gifts. They took his debit and bank cards and requested him for the PIN numbers, which he provided hoping they’d take his belongings and go away.If they want to tie you up, consider yourself already dead with nothing to lose and act accordingly.
