The motorcycle passed on the driver’s side of a 2014 black Nissan and cut in front of driver Lyndon Edwards, 27, of Miami Gardens, and ended up on the passenger side.
“So I rolled down the window and said, ‘Guy, what are you doing? I could have killed you,’ and he just started flipping middle fingers at me and cursing,” said Edwards.
That’s when the motorcyclist hit the passenger side mirror with his fist, cracking it, Edwards said.
The motorcycle sped away but Edwards was able to catch up. He used his cellphone to record video of the motorcycle but its paper license tag was rolled up so the numbers could not be seen.
“I guess he got tired of me following him so when we got to the ramp to I-95 he stopped and pointed his gun at me,” Edwards said.
The motorcyclist stopped, put the kickstand down, got off the bike, and fired several gunshots at the car as it drove by, said FHP Lt. Alex Camacho.

‘He could have killed me,’ driver says after motorcyclist shoots at him during I-95 road rage incident

I think I covered rice-burner bikers three or four years ago. There is a subculture of hyper aggressive pricks that will go stupid for the slightest of perceived insults and their signature move is smashing rear view mirrors and speed away.

Yes, they even have a clothing line!

The driver of the car sought ego satisfaction for his mirror and got an insurance claim to fill and a pair of new undies. And your average vehicle is going to have a tough time trying to catch up with a crotch rocket, so don’t even think about how you would have acted differently. You give chase, specially after the non-deadly-force deed was done, you are escalating the situation.

You have insurance. Let them take care of the car.

From the “article“:

Hatred of journalists whipped up by populist and authoritarian leaders is degenerating into violence across the world, media watchdog Reporters Without Borders (RSF) warned Thursday.
…

“If the political debate slides towards a civil war-style atmosphere, where journalists are treated as scapegoats, then democracy is in great danger,” RSF chief Christophe Deloire said.
Press freedom was in good health in less than quarter of the 180 countries covered by the index, with the United States sliding to 48th place.
The period since President Donald Trump’s election in 2016 has been one of the “American journalism community’s darkest moments”, the report added.

And pry tell us why you believe Trump is a proven menace to Journalists:

“Never before have US journalists been subjected to so many death threats or turned so often to private security firms for protection,” it added.

“Hatred of the media is now such that a gunman walked into the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis, Maryland, in June and killed four journalists and one other staff member,” the report added.

“That is Trumps Fault!®”  No dear Mssr. Delorie, it was not, you lying sack of French manure. Jarrod Ramos had a long-standing beef with Capital Gazette that dated back to a not-so-nice article they published about him in 2011 or six years before Trump became president. Ramos sued them for the article, lost, sent them letters and left messages that were not warm and fuzzy for six years and the newspaper did not even bother to get a restraining order. Ramos finally lost his mind and went guns on them last June.

Now, are there journalists risking like and limb out in the worlds? Dying? Yes, I have posted about it over and over and over. But trying to blame Trump for killings that got started before he was even thinking about being a candidate for the Presidency is just a cheap way to deflect the problem that Reporters Without Borders have (besides lying): They do not keep their people safe. In fct, you are making them bigger targets by lying to the people who will not give a damn if they are thrown in a dungeon or in front of a firing squad.

Other than in selected areas of San Francisco and South Beach, the idea of having a President Buttplug simply does not resonate with the public and what is worse, he knows it.

why 20 PETE 20 and not 20 BUTTIGIEG 20?

I figure he is pandering to a group so he can do a Bernie Sanders: Collect monies and buy a third domicile somewhere.

An article sent by reader Dave:

East St. Louis public housing residents can own firearms and stay in their residential homes once again, a federal judge ruled last week. U.S. District Court Judge Phil Gilbert said the East St. Louis Housing Authority overstepped its authority in denying tenants their Second Amendment right to own functioning firearms while living in their subsidized homes.

Now, this is not a new thing that has happened. Back in Clinton times, they got spanked by a Federal Judge for treating user of Public Housing as if they were less than human and used guns to excuse to conduct warrantless searches. Some Public Housing Authorities do not ban the possession of guns as condition of a lease as their legal departments find it in violation of the Bill of Rights and some like the case above do and from my experience, they always lose in court.

There is a great Law Review paper from Jamie L. Wershbale you may want to read about the subject: The Second Amendment Under a Government Landlord: Is There a Right to Keep and Bear Legal Firearms in Public Housing

Anyway, besides the legal aspect, this court decision is a great example as how the same topic in gun control keeps coming again and again. Just because we had legal wins does not mean they will stop pushing back. The law only works when it favors them and they like to ignore it if otherwise.

Like I said the other day, there are no original thoughts in the Democrat party.

Nobody running for President on that side of the aisle want to be out of lockstep, so they all end up taking ideas from one another.  They just repackage them in their own words, but they are all the same.

Take Buttigieg’s stance on Capitalism.  He can’t call himself a Democratic Socialist, because that’s Bernie’s shtick.  So he says the same thing that Bernie does about capitalism letting people down and calls himself a Democratic Capitalist, heavy on the Democratic.

Mayor Pete Buttigieg: "I think the reason we're having this argument over socialism and capitalism is that capitalism has let a lot of people down." https://t.co/TsjBqrq2gT pic.twitter.com/lp86oOkqEC

How is Democratic Capitalism any different than Democratic Socialism?  If you let “the people” through the power of government, tell you how you can use your money, it’s still doomed to fail the way all planned economies fail, regardless of what you call it.

The only let down of modern capitalism is that the richest generation, raised in the greatest lap of luxury ever experienced by humans ever, is so spoiled that they believe that it’s unfair that they have to get a job and work, and can’t all be millionaires in their late 20’s as part time Instagram influencers and so want the goverment to take care of them.

You’ll never hear a Democrat say that.

But I digress…

Now that Beto has proven to be little more than a lackluster angsty teenage furry, trapped in a middle age white man’s body, Pete Buttigieg has become the new media darling.

Eric Swalwell had (barely) more than a dozen people show up at one of his rallies to listen to him rant about taking Americans’ guns away.

The progression of Democrat politics could mean only one thing, Buttigieg had to steal Swalwell’s idea.

Buttigieg says "assault rifles need to be on the table" for a ban because, "We’ve already decided that this is within the Second Amendment because we’ve decided that somewhere in between a slingshot and a nuclear weapon, we can draw a line. And that’s not unconstitutional…" pic.twitter.com/EFU701pWjg

I thank Lt. Buttigieg for his service, but as a fiance intelligence officer with the Navy Reserve, his weapon of war was Quickbooks.

That the Navy made him carry a stripped M4 around base for his single seven month tour in Afghanistan is neither expertise in or justification for the banning and confiscation of assault rifles.

Let me be blunt, my AR-15’s are not on the table.

Neither are those of the 50 million other Americans who own the type of semi-auto rifle that these people would classify as an assault rifle.

Appealing to your Naval service, in which you swore to uphold and defend the Constitution, as rationality to restrict the Second Amendment is both wrong and offensive.

This one is coming from Spain.
