In the matter of only a few days Memphis has seen two high profile murders from released criminals.

Eliza Fletchers ‘killer’ could face the DEATH PENALTY as he’s charged with first-degree murder of billionaire heiress and is refused bail

A convicted felon could face the death penalty after being charged with murdering mother-of-two Eliza Fletcher after ‘violently’ forcing her into an SUV.

Cleotha Abston-Henderson, 38, is accused of killing elementary school teacher Fletcher, 34, after bundling her into his car on Friday – with prosecutors confirming the pair had never met before.

When asked whether Abston-Henderson should have been released early after spending 22 years in prison for kidnapping a lawyer, Mulroy said: ‘It’s easy to talk about things 20202 hindsight.

‘In this particular case clearly, he shouldn’t have been on the street. Our office opposed parole at the time and in hindsight the parole decision was a tragic one.

When asked by DailyMail.com if Fletcher was sexually assaulted, the DA refused to answer.

It comes after court documents reveal that he was previously convicted of raping a man when he was a teenager.

He was detained 16 times from October 1995 to May 2000 for rape, aggravated assault and unlawful possession of a weapon.

Abston-Henderson was previously jailed for 22 years after kidnapping a lawyer in Memphis in 2000, driving him around at gunpoint.

A career criminal, kidnapper, and rapist was released from prison only to kidnap (and probably rape, details were not released but Fletchers’ shorts were found in a trash bag away from her body) again.

Then only a few days later…

What we know about Ezekiel Kelly, suspect in Memphis mass shooting

A shooting rampage across Memphis came to an end Wednesday night at 9:20 when Memphis Police took 19-year-old Ezekiel Dejuan Kelly into custody.

On social media, where he allegedly live-streamed one of the killings, he went by various spellings of the name Zeek Huncho.

Shelby County court records revealed authorities quickly filed a warrant for first-degree murder for Kelly on Wednesday as the search for him continued in the city.

Court records also showed more about the teen’s background: He faced four felony charges, including two counts of attempted murder, one count of reckless endangerment and one count of possession of a firearm in 2020 at the age of 17.

Sources told WREG he pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of aggravated assault in the case in 2021. He got three years in that case, but was already out of jail.

Memphis Mayor Jim Strickland said Kelly had been released from jail March 16 after serving 11 months of a three-year sentence for an aggravated assault plea.

Now we know how he turned out.

Soft on crime policies lead to recivist criminals.

People like this cannot be returned to society without causing problems.

The cruelty isn’t to the criminals but to the people that are hurt by them.

I have written about the lack of traditional qualifications of Secretary Buttigieg, Assistant Secretary Sam Brinton, and Admiral Rachel Levine before.

If you thought that the Biden Administration was done hiring people like this, you were mistaken.

The Biden Administration’s White House National Monkeypox Response Coordinator is Dr. Demetre Daskalakis.

This is what happens when you Google Demetre Daskalakis.

To be fair, that last image is him as an instructor at a goth fetish cycle dungeon.  So at least he meets one criteria for a public health expert, he’s in good physical condition and not some fat piece of shit.

And giving credit where it’s due, Daskalakis id the Deputy Commissioner at New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

But the rest of the pictures makes me wonder if by Monkeypox Coordinator it’s his job to coordinate the spread of Monkeypox.

The saddest part of this is: after Admiral COVID Tranny and Secretary Non-binary Cross Dressing Pup Fucker, Monkeypox Coordinator Leather Daddy is mild and boring.

I’m now convinced more than ever that the reason I haven’t been hired by NASA or the DOD as an engineer is that if you Google my name, you won’t fine pictures of me engaged in gender bending sexual debauchery.

OK, it does not count because no gun was used.

Hat Tip Royku

Say when, bitch.

One less ghost gun retailer will be in the business of illegally selling gun parts in New York City, Mayor Eric Adams announced on Tuesday.

We have a rights granted to us by our creator. One of those rights is the right to self defense. There is no limit on how you defend yourself. Hopefully you will keep the collateral damage to a minimum.

In these United States that right is embodied in the second amendment. “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

The second amendment does not say muskets. It does not say muzzle loaders or firearms. It doesn’t even mention knives, swords, clubs or axes. It says “arms”.

A few years ago one of the gun hating state of Massachusetts had their ban on stun guns declared unconstitutional. Stun guns are arms and as such are protected under the second amendment. SJC: Stun guns protected under Second Amendment

The newest horrible, no good, double plus ungood, awful threat to the people of this country is a gun that doesn’t have a serial number on it. More importantly, a serial number that the BATFE has a record of. The number of crimes being committed with guns that have no serial numbers is increased vastly.

Mostly because when you go from less than 10 to more than 100 you get huge percentage changes. “Crimes committed with ghost guns has jumped 400% since 2019” could mean that they went from 1 to 4 or from 100 to 400 or from 1000 to 4000. We don’t know because they work hard to hide the true numbers. If the number had climbed from 4000 to 5000 you can be sure it would be described as “more than a 1000 more ghost guns were used in crimes last year…”

Emotional blackmail is a good description of this method of manipulating people to fear something they have no reason to fear. We use to call it “dead baby stories”. These are the stories that were told before the Internet to keep you from doing something. It always had the same form, “Your aunt Jill’s husband’s brother’s son-in-law knows a family whose baby died because he was fed a strawberry. Never give strawberries to a baby or it will die!”

The gun rights infringers are very careful to not actually tell you what they mean when the say “Ghost Gun”.

What they mean is parts. What they mean are objects that might become a firearm. The ATF is currently playing the same game, trying to make parts firearms so they can force registration.

There are a couple of books out there that describe exactly how to use bits and pieces purchased at the local hardware store to create a working sub-machine gun. While it would be nice to have fancy tooling to make them, they are designed to be made with the simplest of tools. A drill and file being the two primary tools required.

The problem is always going to be “When does this piece of metal go from being a lump of metal to a firearm?”

As part of a settlement, Salvo Technologies – doing business as Florida-based 80P builder – agreed to stop selling New York City residents the illegal and untraceable firearms known as ghost guns, which are assembled from gun part kits often sold online.

“Untraceable” is the fear word.

Police procedural shows are very predictable. NCIS was better than most but still. Just about every other week you would hear a conversation like “We’ve identified that the gun that fired the shot is a Glock 49. There are only 9 registered owners of Glock 49s in the area, we need to check them out.”

Or on a really bad day they might have over a 100 registered owners. So some magic nerd in the back would use arcane incantations to have the list filtered down to just left handed 39 year olds whose junk hangs to the right.

There is no gun registry. Some states have one but there is no federal gun registry. Many people believe there is but that’s because Hollywood told them that there is.

For a time Maryland required that every new gun sold in the state supply an example fired case from that gun. This was going to allow the police to solve more crimes. They would be able to pick up a casing at a crime scene and instantly track it back to the person that owned the gun.

Except that it didn’t work even once. They canceled the boondoggle after a number of years and millions of dollars.

The number of times that a gun trace actually leads to an arrest is unknown. The data isn’t collected.

The AG of New York is ordering companies selling parts kits to not sell to people in NY because they might be turned into a real gun and that gun might be used in a crime and they might recover that gun and they might not know who did the crime and they might have been able to trace the gun to the first buyer if only that gun had been registered and had a serial number.

There are firearms that are parts of collections that are multiple buyers removed from the last time that firearm was on an FFLs books. Everytime there is a gun ban scare people decide that a little horse trading amongst friends might be a good idea. So a firearm that was purchased 30 years ago is traded to somebody that in turn trades it to somebody else and forgets about it.

The only thing they have is the emotional blackmail. We have to stand up to their screeching and whining.

[In 2011], the Connecticut legislature estimated there were 372,000 rifles in the state of the sort that might be classified as “assault weapons,” and two million plus high-capacity magazines. Many more have been sold in the gun-buying boom since then. But by the close of registration at the end of 2013, state officials received around 50,000 applications for “assault weapon” registrations, and 38,000 applications for magazines.

Non-compliance is an act of defiance. The law is “shall not be infringed”. Be prepared to fight for your rights.

Settlement blocks another company from selling ghost guns in NYC

I 19-year-old convinced felon in Memphis went on a mass shooting range he live streamed.

I’ll do a deeper dive into this later.  In the meantime, watch the video and learn some lessons on situational awareness.

NBC Out is the “NBC section of NBC News.”

NBC Out is, as you could probably guess, very pro-gay.

It’s so pro-gay that it totally failed to understand straight people and published an article that only made straight people hate the gay community.

It was supposed to be a “hot boy summer.” Then came monkeypox.

Over 100 people, mostly gay and bisexual men, told @NBCOUT how the outbreak put their long-awaited plans on ice. https://t.co/L0wUiTaUW4

The article linked in the Tweet really is something to behold.

How monkeypox spoiled gay men’s plans for an invincible summer
Queer men across the U.S. talked to NBC News about the dates they never went on, the sex they never had and the gatherings they avoided due to the viral outbreak.

For many gay and bisexual men, the sprawling and chaotic monkeypox outbreak has upended a summer that was supposed to be a well-earned opportunity — following the peak of the Covid crisis — to finally have some fun and revel with their gay brothers without the threat of viral infection hanging over them.

Lost amid the frantic media and public health reports about monkeypox epidemiology, the delayed vaccine deliveries and the squabbling over how best to communicate about the virus are the millions of GBTQ people whose happiness, well-being and connection to one another have in many cases been considerably compromised by the mere threat of monkeypox infection.

Dr. Alex Keuroghlian, a psychiatrist at the LGBTQ-health-focused Fenway Institute in Boston, said the outbreak has “been extremely distressing for community members and is also triggering in that it harkens back to the early days of the AIDS epidemic. It has a chilling effect on people’s sense of community, cohesion and belonging.”

Over the past 10 years, the introduction of PrEP, the HIV prevention pill, and the emergence of landmark studies proving that successfully treating HIV blocks transmission of the virus have cultivated a resurgent sexual liberation among many GBTQ people. Long-standing anxieties about HIV have eased, and hookup apps have made meeting sexual partners as convenient as procuring takeout — hence the term “ordering in.” As a result, people like Rojas have felt free to explore and revel in sex in a way queer people haven’t since the AIDS epidemic brought to a crashing close the sexual freedoms gay men enjoyed during the 1970s.

“Post-Covid,” said Rojas, recalling how he experienced the free-spirited bacchanalia into which monkeypox arrived in New York City this spring, “everybody went crazy, and there were sex parties all over town.”

“I’ve stopped going to sex parties,” he said, given that public health authorities identified such gatherings of men as major monkeypox risk factors. “I also stopped having sex with people who live off their OnlyFans. I additionally stopped cruising at the gym, I did not continue to go to Fire Island, and I stopped attending orgies.”

The article goes on but that last paragraph is enough.

Here’s the gist of it.

After two years of COVID paranoia coming to an end, the gay community was ready to celebrate by fucking and sucking everything they could in an absolute bacchanalia of anonymous promiscuous unprotected sex.

Rather than learn that such behavior was what caused the HIV epidemic in the 1980s and avoiding it, they used PrEP to reduce the risk and carry on with the sodomy.

(On a side note: If there was ever an argument against PrEP, this is it right there.  A drug that was supposed to help people after accidental HIV exposure is now fueling wanton anonymous gay sex parties.  At a cost of $21,000 per year, I’m offended that the insurance risk pool is covering that.)

Then BAM!  Monkeypox struck.

It was, once again, too risky to have a total cum-drenched anonmyous bareback suck ‘n fuck fest sex party.

And this caused gay men to suffer emotionally and not feel a sense of community.

The thing is, NBC Out, in trying to generate sympathy for the gay community, just didn’t read the fucking room.

For middle-class straight people, this sort of behavior is degeneracy.  We have no sympathy for people who had to stop going to orgies.

That is under normal circumstances.

Now consider that we were all locked down for COVID.

We were all told that if we went outside without a mask on we were grandma killers.

Holidays and family gatherings were canceled.

We were unable to live normal lives.

Some people lost loved ones and couldn’t attend funerals.  Others missed weddings or other significant life events.

After all that, we’re expected to feel sorry that gays had to cancel a fuck fest?

No.

This article rolled back 40 years of gay rights advancement.

It vindicated every Right-winger and moralist who condemned the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s as the result of gay behavior.

It demonstrated that the gay community was lying when they said they wanted to get married and be like everyone else and that what people used to think about the gays as debauched sexual perverts was right.

This is what happens when you lose perspective, you aim for empathy and you create antipathy.
