Witness Me

I have changed my mind.  Venezuelan socialism is AWESOME.

It’s a real life Mad Max movie.

That’s it, I’m packing a shipping container with all the guns, ammo, and food I can, and going to head down south wearing a midget as a hat.

“Who runs Caracas town?  J.Kb. Runs Caracas town!”

 

The John Crawford III Case: Officer who killed Walmart shopper won’t face federal charges.

DAYTON, Ohio – The Justice Department says it won’t bring federal charges against a white police officer who killed a black shopper carrying an air rifle in a Walmart in Beavercreek, Ohio, in 2014. The case involved a 22-year-old Fairfield man, John Crawford III, who had taken a BB/pellet gun off a store shelf. A 911 caller reported that a man was pointing a gun at customers, and police charged into the store. Store surveillance video shows that Officer Sean Williams shot Crawford…

… To establish willfulness, federal authorities would be required to show that the officer acted with the deliberate and specific intent to do something the law forbids. This is one of the highest standards of intent imposed by law. Mistake, misperception, negligence, necessity, or poor judgment are not sufficient to establish a federal criminal civil rights violation.

I think this is the final nail of this case. Let’s face it, any Legal action to be brought would have been against the caller who (IMHO) willfully lied to 911 and began the chain of events that led to Mr Crawford’s death. When local authorities refused, not only Justice was not served, but a dangerous precedent is now floating around: You can get away with SWATting.

Don Hume has passed.

Just heard about it. The words and photos are from his grandson:

“Don Hume peacefully left this life shortly before midnight last night to be with the Lord in heaven. He was a husband to a wonderful woman for 62 years, a father, a grandfather, a great grandfather, a provider, a mentor, an innovator, a businessman, and truly a Legend. He will be loved, missed, and cherished by many. Thank you Grandad.”

My first CWP holster was a Don Hume. When I sold the gun, I put the holster as part of the package which made the buyer very happy.
The legends are leaving us.

How the mighty have fallen: Brady Campaign an appendage of Moms Demand. 

My notifications popped with another futile case brought by the Bradys in which the defendants will probably be stuck with the legal bills. I almost ignored the last bit at the bottom of the article:

About Us: The Brady Campaign and Center, united with the Million Mom March, is a national network of over 90 grassroots chapter affiliates mobilized to prevent gun violence at the community level.

Damn! Handgun Control Inc went from being the premier Gun Control organization and the one that without a doubt was the most effective, to be Shannon Watts’ purse carrier. Then again they keep pursuing lawsuits that end not only bad but shafting the clients and son enough you depend on somebody’s bank account to keep the lights of fame on.

I love it when they screw up like this…

This is an actual headline from the Washington Post:

For some reason the Left still believes they speak for everybody or at least they can read minds. If the intention of the Fake News Writer is to make you believe that Law Enforcement is seen as some sort of Evil Force by the majority of the American People, he could not be more mistaken.

Listen, as much as I understand that Black Lives Matter has managed to push the narrative of all cops are murderers to a sizable percentage of the Black population, the same does not apply to Whites and other minorities. I know there are some whiny shitheads in the Chicano community that communed with BLM, but East Coast Hispanics? Latinos that have lived in Latin America or are sons and daughters of immigrants that lived under a Police State (which is most Latin Nations anyway) find US LEOs the height of politeness and professionalism.

This is a lame attempt by Mr. Balko to create a controversy where none exist but for a few in the Left and he probably picked up the “dissent” by the postings of some Chest Thumpers on our side.  What he does not understand because he simply does not spend time in our world is that we are in a perpetual state of analysis and criticism among ourselves, but that does not mean there is a break up and dissolution of our resolve.

We catch a picture of a Gun Owner being unsafe, we fall upon him like pigs on fresh corn and free mud. Several decades later, the argument of 9mm versus .45 ACP is still going. Do not badmouth the 1911 or say anything bad about a John Browning design or you will be tarred and feathered. And I don’t want to get in the political arena and legal issues. Hell, even instructors are reviewed and discussed with savage detail.

But the Left has the misconception that if there is an argument, it can only mean there is not unity. This is based in their dogma that in order to have unity, their members cannot argue the edicts brought forward by The Betters.  To do so is treason and immediate expulsion from the group and obtaining the label of traitor. And you don’t have to go far to see it, recently a journalist was relieved from her post for covering the removal of Jewish individuals from a LGBT parade because their presence and Pride flags with the Star of Israel would make Palestinians feel bad or some horsehit like that. So basically the organizers sent the Jewish Women back to the closet and the journalist got punished for calling attention to the contradiction. Dissent is verbotten in the Left.  On our side? You tell us we can’t do something and even the most College Educated, Multi Doctored Scholar from the West Coast will suddenly develop Southern accent and say: “Challenge accepted. Hold my beer.”

And the last mistake Mr. Balko made was not figuring out that he just informed over a million LEOs across the Nation that they have good friends in the NRA. When it comes time for passing Legislation, more cops will stand on our side than with the Gun Control nannies that have taken into their bosom the Black Lives Matter Pigs Must Die movement.

Thank you.
