And the story of the Uvalde school shooting gets worse still..

BREAKING NEWS: Uvalde acting police chief RESIGNS after mayor vowed he ‘will be gone by the end of the week’: Damning new audio proves he KNEW there were ‘eight to nine’ children alive and needing rescue during massacre but failed to help

Lt. Mariano Pargas of the Uvalde Police Department has resigned from his position, days before he was likely to be dismissed at a ‘special meeting’ of the city’s council.

Pargas, 65, was the commanding officer on the scene when 19 children and two teachers were shot dead by crazed gunman Salvador Ramos on May 24 at Robb Elementary School.

The resignation comes days after CNN published damning audio and video that showed the officer failing to act and properly relay information about the unfolding attack.

The dispatcher told Pargas that there were eight or nine students still alive inside of the classroom. He asked the dispatcher: ‘This calls you got in from the… from one of the students, what did they say?’ She answers: ‘Ok, Khloie’s going to be, it’s Khloie. She’s in Room 112, Mariano, 112.’

The dispatcher goes on to tell Pargas: ‘Eight to nine are still alive. She’s not too sure… She’s not too sure how many are actually DOA or possibly injured. We’re trying.’ He replies: ‘Ok, ok thanks’ and then hangs up.

A minute later, Pargas is shown relaying the information he obtained to a Border Patrol agent inside of a Robb Elementary School hallway. However, when Pargas goes outside to talk with a Texas Ranger outside of the school, he didn’t mention the 911 call.

McLaughlin said: ‘I think if we’d have had this, all this, and I think if we would have had your video and what we saw and everything we saw last night, I think Mariano would have been gone sooner, in my opinion, would have been gone.’

They knew there were kids still alive, a lieutenant was told by dispatch but did nothing to act on that information.

If this man had any decency left, he’d go home and eat his service weapon.

If he doesn’t, I wouldn’t convict a grieving parent gave him service weapon gavage.

Aleatory Ruminations for 11/18/2022

 

 


Is anybody else suffering from Election Saturation? As much as I like the politics of our causes, it reaches a point I just want to shut down almost all inputs, specially after the election is over and the inevitable wave of pundits come out to tell you what all meant and means.

 


 


Do you remember the scenes in the movie Heartbreak Ridge where the platoon members came running out of the barracks with a bunch of t-shirts trying to figure out which one was the gunny wearing that day? That is me trying to dress for the frigging multiple personality Tennessee weather.  Having days topping in the low 80s and the dropping to the high 20s can drive anybody insane pus catch a cold or pneumonia or some other crap.


 


 

I believe I am going to get back and smoke pork again. There are some nice BBQ restaurants to be found in the area, but dear Lord they want and arm and a firstborn for a pound of pulled pork. And what I have found disturbing, is the abundant sales of electric pellet smokers rather than the traditional charcoal & wood contraptions. Is this even legal in the South? At a minimum is as immoral as dancing Salsa butt-nekkid in the middle of Baptist services.

 


 



 

Friday Feedback

The snow is starting to fall. The wood rack is full. Time to gather around the woodstove to enjoy the warmth.

Any feedback for us, feel free to let us know.

What firearm did you purchase and decide it just wasn’t for you?

Have you have you ever picked up a firearm and had “hate at first manipulation?”

This one bothers me: Tennessee Collects $1.14 Billion in Sales Taxes in October.

The state of Tennessee has collected $585.8 million more than budgeted in taxes and fees in the first three months of the fiscal year.

That’s after the state collected $4.6 billion more than its initial budgeted estimate for last fiscal year. Tennessee’s State Funding Board heard testimony Thursday from economists as it worked toward establishing next fiscal year’s estimates.

The largest collection came from sales tax, where Tennessee collected $1.14 billion. That’s above the $1 billion budgeted estimate and more than an 11% increase from the $1.02 billion collected in October 2021.

How much of that extra income is due to inflation? Stuff costs more and the sales tax does not care if you can pay the higher collection because you are spending more because you are forced to do so or just because you have extra income.   

 

Round and Round We Go

On Nov 7th, 2022 Judge Suddaby issued his preliminary injunction enjoying parts of the NY State CCIA.

Most of the “good moral character” requirements were enjoined as well as the intrusive requirements the state was using to make that determination. Along with the good moral character being enjoined, Suddaby also said that many of the locations cited as “sensitive places” were not. He also enjoined enforcing the “opt into the 2nd” law where there had to be affirmative signage on a location to allow CCWs to carry.

Today the Second Circuit court granted an emergency stay of Suddaby’s order. We’ll update this article once we have the text of that stay.

This was just a three judge panel that issued the stay.

Interestingly the injunction issued against restricting the right to carry in a place of worship is still in place.

Schummer and the Democrats are a bunch of… words fucking fail me.

Democrats: WE NEED MORE ROE V. WADE BACK!. ABORTION IS HEALTHCARE! (Let’s kill hundreds of thousands of babies!)

Same Democrats: PEOPLE ARE NOT PRODUCING MORE BABIES! WE NEED ALIENS!

In the lower tier of the scale, I figure abortion has taken 20 million lives since it became legal in the 70s. One of the excuses given at the time is that we could not keep reproducing because we simply could not feed and care for all. Now the same eugenic motherfuckers want to legalize 11 million illegal aliens with the excuse we need more people to mow the lawn and do shit they cannot lower themselves to do and, of course, vote for them for years to come.

Do you still doubt they will not give two shits to get you killed if it advances their hunger for unlimited power?

Old News: Old Lies.

Cute Gun Control article from 40 years ago.

And this section was told over and over and you still see it floating around.

At the time, we were shocked and surprised at the revelation. It is not till later that we come to find out that “known by their assailants” was such a generic and open-ended term, it did not make sense unless your intention was to misguide people and garner support gun control policy. You have seen John Meth-Head walk by your place of business every day and in a couple of occasions he has addressed you for money or you had asked him to leave your dumpster alone, does not mean you know the guy as you would a friend or a coworker. But if John suddenly becomes aggressive to the point of bodily harm and you defend yourself. the fact you had seen him before automatically constitutes that “you know him.”

And then there is the question of relevance of knowing the assailant: Who gives two damns if it is a blood relative train to brain you with a hammer or the mailman who decided to try to rape a female on his route? Relationship closeness or lack of it does not make a defense from a credible threat of death or bodily harm more or less legal or defensible.
