“I will not be specific because I intend to get away with it.

First, if you are coming after my individual civil rights, it’s personal.

Second, when it has become personal, nothing will be below me and everything will be on the table. You, your employer, your house, your business, your spouse, kids, parents. Because as it stands today, for you, everything of MINE is already on the table. My business, home, car, employer, family. Social media accounts, Amazon buying records, memberships, donations.

You will regret living under the same rules you imposed on me.”

And like Joe said, I have nothing more to add.

New Orleans police have arrested one suspect in connection with the armed robbery at the Waffle House on Elysian Fields Avenue on Thursday night (April 19).
Ernest Thomas was arrested on one count of armed robbery and one count of attempted armed robbery, but remains in the hospital as he recovers from gunshot wounds, NOPD said.

…

Thomas stood on the side by the counter and served as lookout for the other man. A customer armed with his personal firearm drew his weapon as the other robber approached him, causing the robber to flee. Thomas then pointed his own weapon at the armed customer, the police release said.
The customer fired several shots at Thomas, who then ran out of the Waffle House and fled in a white Chrysler with the other robber. The customer later told police that he believed he had struck Thomas.
Later in the night, a white Chrysler pulled up at a local emergency room and dropped off a man with several gunshot wounds to the back, hip and arm. The man matched witness descriptions of the injured robber, according to the release.

Waffle House armed robbery suspect hospitalized with gunshot wounds: NOPD

I love happy endings. Now if you are so kind and check the date of the article, you will realize that this particular event happened 2 days before the shooting at the Waffle House in Nashville.  Why, one wonders, this particular Waffle House event was not publicized? It is a rhetorical question.

And without taking anything away from James Shaw Jr.  and his brave action, but I read many years ago in Tom Clancy’s Clear and Present Danger that armed combat beats unarmed combat.  I have tried to live under that principle ever since.

And now it would be a good time to bring back this classic video so full of truth:

I understand that she has a core group of followers that will eat that crap up, but just plain accusing 5 million Americans of so disgusting crimes?

All of the sudden I have this vision of Shannon pulling a Charles Whitman at the NRA Annual Meeting.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – In roughly one year’s time, a private company pumped nearly 6,000 gallons of Broward Sheriff’s Office gas paid for by taxpayers into its own vehicles – and now that dubious expenditure is fueling a “no-confidence” vote by patrol deputies in an effort to help push Sheriff Scott Israel out of office.
…
BSO gave Napa Auto Parts, which has a contract to deliver parts to BSO’s fleet, access to its gas tanks and public records obtained by the union show that the company was responsible for taking 5,786 gallons of publicly financed gas from BSO pumps in about a year’s time.
“It should not be happening,” Bell said. “It’s the fleecing of the taxpayers right now.”

Sheriff’s office gives private company thousands of gallons of free gas

The rumbling for Governor (and future private citizen) Rick Scott to have Sheriff Israel removed grow louder, but short of finding a video or him having sex with a minor in the middle of the Swap Shop, I do not think scot will develop the balls to anger his non-existent Democrat voters from Broward.

The gift from the President of France to the US: A sapling from Belleau Wood where the US Marines made their name in WWI at the cost of 9,777 casualties, included 1,811 killed who rest in the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery.

We will refrain from making jokes against the French till tomorrow.
