Mayor Recognizes June 2 as National Gun Violence Awareness Day in New Providence with Proclamation

Lemme see: An anti-gun city mayor wearing orange? Somehow it sounds familiar..Oh yes! That long tradition of Mayors Against Illegal Guns of having less than honorable members who are serving prison time or had to renounce to escape prosecution for felonies that included illegal uses of firearms.

A meme trying to shame me: FAIL.

Not only I can look at it, I have gotten my hands stained with pig’s blood. Hell, back in NW Spain, you save the blood to make sausage and some weird crepes that I never got the taste for. I also pulled out and saved the intestines to make chorizo, got the kidneys because they are tasty to eat fried with olive oil, paprika and onion (You do need to cut them up first, wash them good and leave them soaking in booze for several hours to remove any odors or flavors not compatible with eating.) But I loved the hams, smoked in the Spanish tradition to make Serrano (no the ultra salty shit some supermarkets sell.)

Face it Junior, pig is damned good eating. And if you get hungry enough, you will get dirty too and a lot less judgmental .

Here, start eating.

They have gone from Rule Britannia to Quivering Limey Bitches. What else can you say when the contents of the average kitchen drawer are now considered an arsenal?

These are comment extracted from Reddit related to the post about the drop in crime in the area near the NRA Annual Meeting:

You have to love the adherence to their own prejudices while suddenly doing a 180 on them. One day NRA members are the spawn of the devil and next they are not bad, just their ideas to allow good people be armed as it is their right. And the NRA retirees must share the secret of looking so youthful.

NRA are good guys again, it is just the ideas that sacred them. Funny, we call it The Bill of Rights.

Yup, they are scared of the Bill of Rights somehow. And if they need to lie and manipulate to make sure those “awful” ideas do not propagate and make people enjoy freedom, they will do so.

So, we are bad, but we aren’t. Get a whole bunch of people with guns will end up bad, but does not so, that’s an exception because they are not bad but their ideas are… How in the hell these idiots don’t end up with a herniated brain  is beyond comprehension.

Feel very free to steal and share:

What happens when you gather 80,000 Second Amendment Loving Americans into a small area for a weekend of gun-related fun? Blood in the streets? Indiscriminate shootings? Bodies piling up at the smallest of offense? You know the answer.

Same as last year, I checked with CrimeMapping.com and used them again this year to capture the results for your convenience. I checked the three previous weekends for comparison purposes.

Weekend of 4/30/2016 to 5/1/2016

Next is the weekend of 5/6/2016 to 5/8/2016

And then we have the weekend of 5/13/2016 to 5/15/2016

And finally the weekend of the NRA Annual Meeting, 5/20/2016 to 5/22/2016.

Here is a handy guide of what the icons mean:

The area in display covers way more than what most attendees probably walked around the Annual Meeting. For the NRA AM weekend, we see 5 icons with numbers, three represent multiple dug offenses and the other two are multiple larcenies.

As for the rest, you draw your own conclusions.

If a kind soul reminds me next week, I will update this post with the crime results for the upcoming weekend.

Update: It was told that the area shown does not correspond dead center with where the big exhibition happened and that is right.

I centered by mistake at the Kentucky Int’l Convention Center where the National NRA Foundation Banquet has held rather than the Kentucky Exposition Center.

I did go back to CrimeMapping.com and selected an area that covered both places and to get a better feel, I did the whole week rather than just the weekend. There is still a noticeable reduction in crime even when the area bigger and less affected by the attendees. I will update the maps at a later date since we are heading into a holiday weekend.

Maybe 22 square miles might be a tad much,,,, 🙂
