We're the Only Ones Roadside Assisting Enough

Former officer gets 25 years in shooting death of stranded motorist [More]

Hey, he was just being active...

Blame Trump

Oyer referenced President Donald Trump multiple times, comparing her client's racial slurs and targeting of Democrats and the media to similar views that the President has taken ...  "Donald Trump uses similar epithets in his everyday language and tweets," Oyer said. [More]

And by default, if you agree with the agenda he campaigned on, she's talking about you.

They all are.

A Model Inmate

Well according to this, Frank, he was a model prisoner.

Bishop argued to the parole board that his client was a "model inmate" and posed no threat to anyone in the community. [More]

Yeah, all the time he was under 24/7 custodial care he didn't shoot anybody.

Social Justice Warrior

It looks like a real one this time -- the good kind. [More]

It's nice to see a candidate for office who gets it and isn't afraid to explain to those who don't. I like what I'm seeing from Eddy Justice, and while I haven't found a campaign website yet, you can learn more about what he believes from his Facebook and Twitter pages.

The Opposite Day "progressives" have swindled too many useful idiots into believing "innocent until proven guilty" is a dangerous and radical idea. Justice's article on "red flags" does a good job explaining why that's the true radical danger.

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

Reed, who lost a nephew to city gun violence, said it's time to try something new and that this is a program proven to work. [More]

Information on who the nephew was and what he was doing does not seem readily available in the reports I've seen that repeat this claim. 

And if it's been "proven" then it's not "new." I'm wary of proponents attributing causation for murder fluctuations to a program dependent on trusting the word of gang "leaders" that they'll be good.

A Situation Rich in Target Opportunity

International thieves from Chile are suspected of committing hundreds of burglaries across Southern California after obtaining visa waivers to enter the United States, authorities said. [More]

Based on what the politicians Californians elect encourage and discourage, I'm with Tommy Lee on this one.

We're the Only Ones Active Enough

“Actions are better than reactions,” Noor continued. “If you are reacting, it's too late to protect yourself."  [More]

Sweet. You could use that "justification" to kill just about anybody.

Sounds like we need us some LEO-only "Scorch Your Ground" laws...

You CAN Stop the Signal?

[More]

I will be interested to see if this happens again, and'/or with any others of my online friends. Having been subjected to Google News feed blackouts and Facebook "community standards" rejections, I'm starting to feel like I'm at the end point of a Goldfinger quote.

Funny. Attack pieces on RKBA don't seem to have these problems...

Aural Gratification

Mueller report contains claim Russia taped Bill Clinton having phone sex with Monica Lewinsky [More]

Whoever has that tape could make a fortune if they set up a site where they charged people to hear it. I'd want to play it fast so it sounded like Alvin and the Chipmunks. And post it to Hillary's Twitter feed.

Court of Contempt

A Massachusetts District Court Judge and Trial Court Officer were indicted today in federal court in Boston on obstruction of justice charges for preventing an ICE Officer from taking custody of an alien defendant. [More]

Democrats, naturally. Throw the book at them. Put them in prison.

I, Terrorist

Trinity College professor tweets ‘whiteness is terrorism,’ refers to Barack and Michelle Obama as ‘white kneegrows’ [More]

And:

At the time, Berger-Sweeney said she supported Williams’ right to express his views, but found his words personally offensive.

Everyone who thinks she'd take that official position had a white professor made comparable comments raise your hand.

A Pound of Cure

Because an ounce of prevention would be racist. [More]

True to His Nature

Nonprofit Pays Bail For Man Who Attacked His Wife, Hours Later He Murders Her [More]

There's a truism about custodians in there somewhere...

My first thought when seeing this:

Don't touch the snake. It bites.

Nice snake...

Ow! It bit me!

Naturally, the Bail Project insists there is no way they could know that snakes bite. That's' quite the Opposite Day "progressive" result they achieved there, no?

A Sporting Proposition

NRA insiders and longtime observers describe an organization at war with itself over a central question: Has it strayed too far from its original mission of gun safety and outdoor shooting sports and become too political? [More]

You tell me, Lisa Marie Pane of the Associated Press. Here are the Purposes and Objectives from page one of the Association Bylaws:

No mention of that, eh? How do you fulfill duty #1 by abdicating political and legal actions?

It's almost like this is a hit piece masquerading as news to advance the meme that gun owners need to be more Fudd-like, just as Republicans must become more "moderate."

Back that turnip truck up so I can climb back on and fall off proper this time.

Carrying on the Tradition

Investigators searched Baltimore City Hall and Mayor Catherine E. Pugh’s homes among other sites Thursday, a highly-visible indication of a federal criminal case over lucrative children’s book deals she cut with businesses connected to the government she has run since 2016. [More]

Baltimore?  Doesn't that make her a Bloomberg mayor?

Who does she think she is? Sheila Dixon?

We're the Only Ones Multitudinous Enough

We found 85,000 cops who’ve been investigated for misconduct. Now you can read their records. [More]

How many barrels of "few bad apples" does that make?

Democrat Hypocrisy on Executive Privilege Recalls Different ‘Gunwalker’ Reaction

Curiously, Nadler, fellow Democrats and most of the DSM contained their outrage and instead provided cover for the Obama administration’s obstruction of justice in the Operation Fast and Furious investigations conducted by the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. [More]

If Trump does it, heads must roll! But using executive privilege to cover their own real crimes is just fine and only a conspiracy theorist would object.

Seek, and Ye Shall Find

Germany: Asylum-Seekers Brutally Assault Passersby Out Of ‘Boredom’, Get Away With Light Sentences [More]

I'd say in a sane world that would be grounds for immediate deportation, but in a sane world, they wouldn't be there in the first place.
