Meanwhile, Across the Pond in Sarah Brady Paradise...

Golfers arrested after fighting off gang attempting to steal clubs...

According to reports, the players were about to tee off on the fourth hole of the course in Bromley, Kent, when they were confronted by a group of teenagers brandishing planks of wood. [More]
Officially insane.

We're the Only Ones Harboring Secrets Enough

Police allege Det. Stephanie Lazarus, 49, shot her ex-boyfriend's wife, then harbored the secret for more than two decades. [More]
Y'know, I was just saying to myself this emphasis on the "Only Ones" is getting a bit overwhelming.

The stories just keep coming in. More than I can process.

I sure feel good knowing Stephanie was out there carrying for all those years when I was living in LA---and that when I did, I was taking the risk of losing my freedom or life if she or her colleagues had discovered it.

We're the Only Ones "No Charge" Enough

Charges won't be filed against troopers or a paramedic, involved in a scuffle near Paden. [More]
It wasn't the paramedic who deserves to be charged. He didn't assault anybody.

I guess that's how these guys cover their hind ends.

You'd better believe if the "Only Ones" could have gotten him for obstruction or resisting, they would have. And they'd have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for those darn cameras...

We're the Only Ones Shredding Enough

Document shredding puts Strike Force in doubt

The integrity of the team of 34 officers and supervisors from 13 local law enforcement agencies, who focus on gang- and drug-related crime, now is so damaged by the unauthorized destruction that it may never restart operations.
[More]
The whole team?

Gee, that must be what happens when you have "a few bad apples" in the "Only Ones" barrel.

Some of the comments are what we've come to expect from those afflicted with AWMD (authority-worshiping mental disorder).

Take the Poll

Should states loosen restrictions on guns? [More]
I've talked about Parade Magazine before.

We're the Only Ones "We've Got the Beat" Enough

Holloway appears to comply, but Rios jumps out and begins hitting him with his fists and a baton. [More]
Let the "Only One" apologies begin.

We didn't see the whole tape.

We didn't hear what he said.

Just a few bad apples do not spoil the whole barrel.

Hey, if he'd listened this wouldn't have happened. He's lucky they didn't shoot his ass.

It does kind of let us know why some don't particularly want us to have cameras. Or guns. Some day, those animals who perpetrate official brutality, and those who stand by and condone it, may feel very, very alone.

Torture Not Unconstitutional

Taser use to obtain DNA not unconstitutional [More]
Now imagine if they tried this at Gitmo.

Oh well, I can hear the police state apologists telling us what a scumbag the suspect was and how he deserved what he got. Their dim, worshipful minds just can't seem to think it through.

The Warrior Gene

Boys who have a so-called "warrior gene" are more likely to join gangs and also more likely to be among the most violent members and to use weapons, a new study finds. [More]
Ah!

Something else to abort!

Unless, of course, you're a licensed and registered Sardaukar breeder...

How many remember "Soldier"?

A Sticky Situation

Richmond Coliseum Bans VCDL Stickers! [More]
With the hive mentality exhibited here, I'm tempted to stop calling them "antis" and start calling them "ants." They get so worked up over repressing people they're almost comical.

Almost.

Good job, VCDL.

My favorite part is this:
Stay tuned - this could skyrocket.
Let us hope.

A Poor Way to Fight Gun Violence

It may surprise some, but I won't argue too hard against the mayors' assertion that criminals won't file off or replace imprinting parts, and won't stop to pick up spent casings. They could, but why should they? Since their guns are the "illegal" ones the mayors say they're against, that is, since they're almost certainly stolen/black market guns, it's not like lawful purchase records can be traced back to them.

And it's not like one violent sociopath will let this nonsense slow them down one bit. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner shows our old pals the Mayors Against (Your) Guns still trying to baffle everyone with BS.

Also get the latest from my fellow GREs.

Tell a friend?

This Day in History: June 8

All our accounts, for several days past, agree, that the Enemy are preparing to make a considerable embarkation of Horse and Foot, and by the Quantity of Water, Hay and Provision of other kind it should seem that they are going out to Sea. But tho' this is the appearance, I beg you to keep a good look out lest they make a sudden turn towards you. [More]
