It is, apparently, a case of “Sudden Jihadi Syndrome“. 3 people shot, one fatally. Thwarted by another cop who did not hesitate. But for the most part, not a peep from the US media.

Strange though, we heard all about the White Nationalist Nazi loving dude who killed 3 black people yesterday in Jacksonville. All over print media, radio, and TV.

But nearly nothing in the US based media about the Syrian Muslim gunman who planned a mass casualty event in July.

One wonders why the discrepancy…..

For the obtuse, that last line was sarcasm….

Personally, I think he had photos of Michelle’s dick….

Daily Mail:

No 911 call…No toxicology…No ID of witness: What ARE the Obamas trying to hide about death of personal chef while paddle boarding in pond outside their Martha’s Vineyard mansion?

Police in Massachusetts are continuing to cover up information about the death of Obama personal chef Tafari Campbell even after declaring the case closed this week, DailyMail.com can reveal. The response has prompted an outcry from First Amendment advocates who have been left asking: ‘What do they have to hide?’

Is starting to pinch…..

Seems that even the State of New York is feeling that .

The state don’t want to spread out the “Migrants” all over the state, but rather concentrate them where they already are (although the people living in those areas are not in agreement) and may well not help New York City in funding the migrant shelters either (Apparently New York City has a “Right to Shelter” law in place….but the state says it doesn’t apply outside of the city….)

NYC is starting to feel the pinch of all those migrants needing shelter, food and care… It is expensive…..I think it is wonderful that they are feeling that pain….and that burden should continue to be spread out by the southern states to EVERY city that claimed to be a “Sanctuary”…..the liberals need to have their feet held to the fire…forced to walk the talk.

Of course, the rich liberals in Martha’s Vineyard showed us their true colors, and at some point the folks in NYC will have had enough of what they wished upon the Southern border states…….But until then let them squirm.

Fuck Joe Biden, the DOJ  and fuck the “Immigration and Nationality Act”.

At least Elon Musk wants to hire Americans and doesn’t want to spend his money on wages for non citizens and those here illegally.

This looks like the Biden Admin is using the DOJ against all of Biden’s detractors.

Since Georgia has eliminated “Cash Bail” for criminals, why do Trump and his other “Co-Conspirators” have to pay their bail at Fulton County ?

I mean, seriously. Pick one and stick with it, or you are just showing that this is a show trial….If thieves, murderers and such don’t have to pay bail to get out of jail, then why does Trump and his friends?

So here in the Greater Chicago Metro area it is gonna be a hundred degrees Fahrenheit.. Hot, yes. Humid too.  Like dewpoints in the 90’s. Plus no breeze.

The media is, of course, hyping it up greatly. Like it has never happened before. (It has, many times). Lots of times I’ve worked outside in these conditions in the past. I may or may not do so today. But the TV folks are playing it up Big Time.

They are telling everyone how to not die in this terrible (not) heat.  Do people really need to be reminded to drink enough water? To stay out of the sun when possible? Is it a good idea to thwart Darwin by reminding them of this? Are people really stupid enough to not drink water and to stay in the sun when it is hot and humid? Should we care if they do?

The issue isn’t the heat, as they say, but the humidity and lack of a breeze. Even sweating, one cannot cool off because the sweat doesn’t evaporate. But it isn’t like it hasn’t happened before, and it isn’t like it isn’t endured by people in our southern states every year. It’s hot, but not even record hot.

If you die from being out in this weather it is generally cause you are stupid.

So I overhear this asshole bloviating loudly (In public) about how “MAGA assholes” cannot seriously be considering voting for Trump for President again? Loudly and in public, telling anyone in earshot about how voting for Trump is voting for a criminal and the downfall of the country…..

And I should have just kept my pie-hole firmly closed and picked up my food and left the take-out place…..But no.

I asked him to explain how assholes like him could consider voting for a jerk like Biden (or, for that matter, Hillary) who so obviously was selling the office of the presidency (and vice presidency) and that of Secretary of State to foreign powers and special interests….I bought up Barry’s most obvious kickback scheme from the founders of Solyndra  and how much that cost the Taxpayers but enriched the founders of the company…..

“Yet you assholes keep voting for them, and people like them because they are “Democrats”, who also want to reduce our freedoms and the things that made this country the best in the world………, so why is it unreasonable for the MAGA people to vote for greater freedoms and for someone who wants to “Make America Great Again”? How come it is all one sided?”

I thought for a minute he was gonna cry. But lucky for me, about then my food was ready, so I left.

(note that I still hope we can find a leader that isn’t Trump, mind you….But when push comes to shove when it comes down to two…he may be the best of the bad choices)

Have you noticed the subtle indications that Covid 2.0 panic is being implemented?

The gentle reminders on TV and radio that “The Pandemic may be over, but Covid isn’t” and “you may be done with Covid but it isn’t done with you” , and “Covid is still the 5th leading cause of death” in the advertisements by the US department of Health and the CDC….

The gentle slide back to the old ways….some institutions requiring masks…Morris College wants masks in Hallways and lecture halls (but nowhere else?)  Seattle requiring masks in Healthcare facilities….

Some studios in Hollywood requiring masks in their offices…

The subtle messaging in the media about the upcoming Covid season. ..one of several new strains

The fact that they know Covid is invading the US again from other countries but won’t do anything to stop it, much like last time when they allowed folks from China to still fly to the US and enter without any quarantine…. If they think these new variants are an issue, then why not test every person entering the country from elsewhere for ANY covid? ? Why not do basic prevention to keep Covid out of the country? UNless they want another set of panic….

I guess those folks in government need more money…

I fully expect that there will be another “Two Weeks to flatten the curve” emergency that will (again) last for a few months.

Adjust your prep plans accordingly….. Beat the rush, stock up on TP flour, yeast and such early…..(what else did we run out of in the stores?)

And remember what happened to the financial markets last time and adjust your investments to plan for that….minimize the damage…. You might even be able to make money long term if you plan it right.

But whatever, expect some level of Covid Panic/Lockdown again. Plan accordingly.

We worry about our safety, our children. Put those homeless in someone else’s neighborhood!

Funny, innit, how these Blue folks never want to share the pain they wish on others….

Be it migrants in Martha’s Vineyard, windmills off Long Island, or homeless people being housed in affluent San Francisco neighborhoods…..Always Not In My BackYard….

So SumDude decided he needed the contents of the cash register more than the proprietor did..

He arms himself with a box cutter and announces the robbery.

Customer decided this is not gonna happen. Pulls his gat and takes 7 shots to protect the clerk from bodily harm.

He pulls his firearm and just as calm as hell takes aim and fires. First shot misses, but the other six hit SumDude. Note that he never let go of the 6 pack of bottles while shooting. (ETA: And it wasn’t Bud Light)

Ne then goes to his car for another magazine and holds Mr. SumDude until the cops get there. SumDude did not attain room temperature.

6 for seven under stress with one hand. And he never dropped the bottles. Pretty nice.

Obviously a small caliber handgun, but it still did the job.

First rule of gunfights: Have a gun. Second rule: Be able to use it.
