Anybody See 'Assault Weapon' Listed?

Global News has learned that Wortman had access to multiple guns over the course of the rampage — a rifle, a handgun and a shotgun, sources said. Global News does not yet know how he obtained those guns. [More]

Add to that:

Sources confirmed to Global News that Wortman shot RCMP Const. Heidi Stevenson in the chest before dragging her from her car and shooting her again. He stole her handgun, sources say. It’s not known whether he used the handgun on any of his victims.

And authorities say the guns that were "his" were "illegal"...

Fast-track that man to SCOTUS.

He was born in Havana, meaning he's seen what happens, just like Dr. Faria, and unlike worthless recipients who had everything handed to them and are doing their best to kill the dream.

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

In a TV interview, he told me, “One thing is to allow millions of illegal immigrants into the country, not keep track of them, and then weaken the voting laws….In the book, I go through several ways they do this. They fight voter ID laws, which are very common-sense laws because everybody agrees on them.”[More]

We're the Only Ones Familial Enough?

A Vermont police officer faced a judge on Monday, charged along with his father in connection with what investigators say was the long-term sexual abuse of a family member. [More]

I've seen too many false accusations to draw any conclusions without a lot more evidence. And then there's the crazy factor.

A purpose of the "Only Ones" is to call out special privileges and exemptions the rest of us don't get. In this case, I'm withholding judgment, which is the way all of us would want such reports to treat us. There's nothing special about that.
