You Know the Drill

Oh, look: Something else for the antis to get their knickers in a wad over! [More]

A Fair Trial

The reason for this is that the guidelines, like the mandatory minimums, provide prosecutors with weapons to bludgeon defendants into effectively coerced plea bargains. [More]

Between that and economic Wacos and career-obsessed "team player" prosecutors, and "progressive" judges and ignorant juries...

"Safe Passage"

WTF, can't people read signs? [More]

Any other illusions we can shatter for you this morning? 

Forget it Jake, it's Chi-Town.

We're the Only Ones "And They Say There Are No Stupid Questions" Enough

"I heard (a man) say, 'Oh, you're gonna shoot me?' like sarcastic almost," Haidarasl recalled. [More]

Greenfield said she was arrested—and spent the weekend of July 9 in the Delaware County jail—for videotaping a police encounter with Burke that day...The phone, according to Burke, could have been concealing a dangerous weapon—a cell phone gun, or stun gun. [More]

Pretty cool, eh?

Being me, I don't grok tech, but I understand there's a capability to hook something like this up to feed into the Internet so that badged evidence tamperers can't erase it. If one of you smart young guys can explain things slowly, I'll break out my Martian/English dictionary and see if I can follow along...

We're the Only Ones Getting Carried Away with Our Work Enough

A statewide manhunt was launched Tuesday after deputies say a Katy ISD police officer was abducted by a fellow cop. [More]

Let the average cud-chewer see Office Reyes with a gun and they shrug it off. Let them see you with a gun and let the bladder releasing begin.
