Female robbery suspect shot by armed Quiznos employee during ‘take-over style’ robbery, Salt Lake City police say [More]

Compare this to the behavior of a trained professional.

New York, New York, It's a Wonderful Town

MS-13 is targeting New York for more bloodshed: authorities [MORE]

Thank goodness this has nothing to do with that "single issue."  Besides, they don't recognize that in de Blasio's sanctuary anyway.

The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down

Lee Ann Walters is accused of tearing a novelty license plate off of a truck. Then she backed into the driver, causing a knee injury, and fled the scene. Witnesses say she nearly wrecked her car into concrete pylons trying to flee. She had children in the car with her. [More]

And she an attorney works for these guys?  Guess we'll see if "Put your trust in us" is warranted...

Australian Gun Owner’s Proposed ‘Happy Medium’ Overlooks ‘Shall Not Be Infringed’

Some of us aren't “sporting shooters.” Some of us are fighting for nothing less than freedom and we know what’s at stake. We also know that the gun-grabbers will happily accept any incremental concessions they can swindle us out of and then complain about how “extremist gun nuts” are unwilling to “compromise.” Cede to them a beachhead without a fight and they’ll use it to launch their next incursion, because their long-stated goal, before they felt compelled to mask it, is to have it all. Any sop thrown their way in an attempt to appear “reasonable” makes about as much sense as throwing a scrap of flesh to a circling pack of jackals and expecting them to go away sated and to leave you unmolested. [More]

Sometimes bad ideas are offered in good faith by sincere people who haven't considered all the ways their proposals can result in evil rather than good.

Watch Their Hands

Oregon Firearms Federation warns of impending deceptive trickery. [More]

'A Good Start'? For What?

Firearms and Explosives Office - FEOJune 20 at 2:24am · Quezon City, Philippines · FOR INFORMATION and Dissemination:All Permits to Carry Firearms Outside of Residence (PTCFOR) are hereby suspended in the entire island of Mindanao for the whole duration of Presidential Proclamation of Martial Law. (See attached photo: Memorandum signed by PDG RONALD M DELA ROSA,Chief,Philippine National Police) [More]

I'm told he did it on his own "authority."

Here's a backup story. Naturally, the "Authorized Journalists" call it "a good start," making it fair to ask what the end is going to look like.

I bet all the exemptions still apply.

Teen killed by bullet when LA County deputies fired at pit bull: Sheriff's office [More]

Did they just blame the bullet?

#LaughMyOssoff Redux

Broome or Bust

So much for Happy Ramadan. [More]

If he stole, do they get to cut his hand off?

I also don't get:

We do believe he has left the country. We have information to indicate that ... According to officials, Abdullah was sent to the Broome County Jail to wait for arraignment. 

Huh?

There's a lot more to this story than we're seeing here, and I'm afraid there are those with a rigorous agenda and incentive to obscure some particulars.

A Gun in the Home!! And Near a SCHOOL!!!

Suspected home-invasion robbers fatally shot in Brentwood [More]

[Insert name of gun-grabber here] would rather the resident had been killed than armed. Especially since the predators had a gun, which would have offered a superb blood-dancing opportunity.

Josh is Synonymous with Joke, and a Sick One at That

Herschel notes a conspicuous absence of moral constitution.  [More]

I've noticed it myself.

We're the Only Ones Grounded Enough

Police on the scene told the off-duty officer to get on the ground and surrender. He complied with their commands. When another officer recognized him and told the others to let him get up, another officer shot him. [More]

Sorry, I thought you said "Light him up..."

The Lesson of Placeism

Anyone who believes "We live in a safe neighborhood, it can never happen here" is a fool. [More]

Ask Sharon Tate. Or William Petit.

Several summers ago, we noticed smoke billowing over some nearby trees and then all kinds of emergency services started showing up. Yet we live in the safest part of one of the safest cities in the country.

A prudent person would not mistake that for a pass to go oblivious.

Reclaiming What's Theirs

A 'Progressive' Admission

WHY NO ONE SHOUTS 'JESUS IS GREAT' WHEN THEY KILL [More]

I saw a blurb the other day for Adult (and there's a misnomer) Swim's "Black Jesus," and realized that understanding "progressives" constantly ridiculing the central figure in Christianity, but not Mohammed, is more nuanced than they know they'd be marked for death -- which they would be.

Every time they diss Jesus, they're tacitly admitting they believe Muslims are primitives from an inferior culture who are unable to control their savagery. Otherwise, why be afraid to ridicule them and their beliefs?

Open Secrets

Former CIA officer accused of selling top secret information to China [More]

You gotta wonder if the place is just lousy with traitors.

And not just that agency.

The Temporary Safety Ain't Working. We Want Our Essential Liberty Back

In fact, tens of thousands of computer systems all over the world have been “backdoored” by the same N.S.A. weapons. Mr. Ben-Oni and other security researchers worry that many of those other infected computers are connected to transportation networks, hospitals, water treatment plants and other utilities. [More]

That's some"national security" we're being forced to pay for there.

It Depends Upon What the Meaning of the Word 'Conservative' Is

MSNBC Gives Conservative Radio Host Hugh Hewitt a Show [More]

The guy who helped Hillary by playing coy on Trump until he could no longer hold out, and who figures 2A only rates intermediate scrutiny?  The guy who says "Listen to [Rubio]" on immigration? That "conservative"?

By picking "Republicans" like Hewitt and the wretched Joe Scarborough, MSNBC presumes to set itself up as the arbiter of conservatism, feeding the lie that everyone "to the right" of the controlled opposition is an "extremist."
