Sans make up and gaudy earrings, but still recognizable.

Christopher (AKA Tiffany) Moore in on parole for Armed Robbery with Deadly Weapon.

I guess prison does change a man, specially one without soap on a rope.

Stolen from Facebook

I assume some of you already have read this article from last month.

Last night in several parts of the capital city of Caracas, people hit the streets protesting President Maduro’s re-election that many have called illegitimate. It seems there are legitimate questions about his party pulling some California-style voting fraud and the Assembly (a collection of elected and useless politicians) rejected the results which Maduro promptly ignored and swore again as President.

This are some clips of the front page of El Nacional newspaper this morning:

GNB is the National Guard and PNB is the National Police which comprise half of the repression against the protests last night. The other four identified with the yellow check marks were the “Colectivos”, the armed pro-government goons that are in some cases (like last night) more violent than the police or National Guard. In one location, they murdered a woman who was just standing at the front of her house. In other places, they waved guns, shot at houses and businesses and just operated like advancing and unopposed Mongols.

The Colectivos for the most part are bullies with guns who know are unopposed. Even the few times they were arrested a decade ago, they were promptly released by orders from higher up, so they know they will not face a court of law ever.  They are predators without a natural enemy in a fenced preserve full of cute little bunnies to hunt at their pleasure.

Future Somalia in the Caribbean is lost. They are being slowly pared away and they still refuse to step up and do what they need to survive. There are guns in Venezuela but it takes some cojones to get them, but testicular fortitude has been sorely lacking down there for a long time.

They made their bed and they are being raped in it.

The cause of the explosion is “under investigation.” It is not uncommon for fuel thieves to tap pipelines and steal gasoline. Sometimes the gamble does not pay off and a roasting occurs. However, this mass incineration is special when you consider people went willingly to a fountain of gasoline to steal a couple of gallons.

I had some ideas written, but I checked the stats on  the previous post and it was one of the poorest-performing post of the day. And it seems it also insulted some people by engaging in victim-shaming.

I decided not to waste any more time in the subject. I do believe you are all smart and can come up with your own strategies to avoid having your weapon stolen from your vehicle.

If you actually need an idea, Miami-Dade Police Department has a nice reminder.

For those who may not know, Ladd  used to run the almost defunct Coalition To Stop Gun Rights Violence and then moved to that not very successful gun control group founded by the longest Stockholm Syndrome sufferer George Takei. Old hands will remember CSGV supporting the mass incarceration of Americans and being “understanding” of the Native American massacres of the Old West and the Japanese Internment Camps in WWII.

Reader Mal Roadkill sent me this screen cap which I am not surprised to see: Doxxing the MAGA Hat Kids’ parents

As I said, I am not surprised. Ladd has always demonstrated a contempt for the life of anybody who does not march with the rhythm of his political beat. Bad news for him is that we regard him in the same way.

Never forget: They do not care if you live and they much rather have you killed if they can get away with it.
