Gun Free Zone

First:

Police are investigating a Saturday night shooting at a Southwest Miami-Dade bank that left one suspected robber dead and another fleeing the scene.

Miami-Dade Police say the shooting took place at the BB&T Bank branch located on Southwest 137th Avenue near Kendall Drive around 8:30 p.m.

Investigators say the victim was at a drive-thru ATM at the bank when a suspected robber approached the victim’s white pick-up truck and the two got into a confrontation. Shots were fired, according to police, and the robber was struck and died at the scene.

Second:

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – The mother of a 23-year-old woman who shot at an attempted robber at a Valero gas station told Local 10 News that her daughter had a legal license to carry the firearm. Miami-Dade police said the victim shot the suspect multiple times during the attempted robbery.

Miami-Dade Police said the shooting took place at 7 a.m. at the gas station near Northwest 79th Street and 13th Court.

Neither would-be victim had to retreat or roll over and beg for mercy because they were disarmed as the Florida Democrats would want it. Yet there is legislation being considered in Tallahassee right now that will do exactly that.  Florida has been the example of what a legally armed citizens is really like when it comes of the Second Amendment. What could have been two innocent people killed by violent criminals, turned out to be one criminal now dead one wounded and one sought by the police on murder charges with two good citizens alive.

And that is why we carry.

This is the statement realized by Biden’s handlers through Joe Biden before giving him his Jell-0 and Metamucil and putting him to bed:

Three years ago today, a lone gunman took the lives of 14 students and three educators at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. In seconds, the lives of dozens of families, and the life of an American community, were changed forever.

For three years now, the Parkland families have spent birthdays and holidays without their loved ones. They’ve missed out on the experience of sending their children off to college or seeing them on their first job after high school. Like far too many families, they’ve had to bury pieces of their soul deep within the Earth. Like far too many families — and, indeed, like our nation — they’ve been left to wonder whether things would ever be okay.

These families are not alone. In big cities and small towns. In schools and shopping malls. In churches, mosques, synagogues, and temples. In movie theaters and concert halls. On city street corners that will never get a mention on the evening news. All across our nation, parents, spouses, children, siblings, and friends have known the pain of losing a loved one to gun violence. And in this season of so much loss, last year’s historic increase in homicides across America, including the gun violence disproportionately devastating Black and Brown individuals in our cities, has added to the number of empty seats at our kitchen tables. Today, as we mourn with the Parkland community, we mourn for all who have lost loved ones to gun violence.

Over these three years, the Parkland families have taught all of us something profound. Time and again, they have showed us how we can turn our grief into purpose – to march, organize, and build a strong, inclusive, and durable movement for change.

The Parkland students and so many other young people across the country who have experienced gun violence are carrying forward the history of the American journey. It is a history written by young people in each generation who challenged prevailing dogma to demand a simple truth: we can do better. And we will.

This Administration will not wait for the next mass shooting to heed that call. We will take action to end our epidemic of gun violence and make our schools and communities safer. Today, I am calling on Congress to enact commonsense gun law reforms, including requiring background checks on all gun sales, banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and eliminating immunity for gun manufacturers who knowingly put weapons of war on our streets. We owe it to all those we’ve lost and to all those left behind to grieve to make a change. The time to act is now.

That is unequivocally terrible.

Now it’s really starting to make sense why Biden’s Secretary of Defense is engaged in an ideological purge of the military and is having troops permanently deployed to guard Washington DC.

The Democrats encouraged Antifa and the riots this summer in the belief that it would be good for them and bad for Trump.

The mob may have hated Trump, but the enemy of your enemy isn’t always your friend, and the mob hates most of the Democrats too.

Just like social distancing and the security fencing in DC, radical Leftist violence is just another one of those things that we thought would be over in a few weeks but has become a permanent part of the “New Normal.”

Two grown men break into a home and attack an elderly woman, shooting and injuring her.  A young boy picks up a gun and shoots at the men, fatally wounding one and scaring off the other.

Tell me how else a 73-year-old woman and a 12-year-old boy are supposed to defend themselves from two grown men?

I just hope the boy gets the help he needs to emotionally process what he had to do.

This is why we are advocates for gun rights.

Not down here. Caught this sucker 10 minutes ago.

Look at that sky!

I know, come Summer and karma will pay me a visit. But then again night fishing is a thing.

Hat Tip to Ish for the meme idea. Feel free to steal

I have been trying to do more cardio.  I love weight lifting but I hate running.

For weights, nothing gets me a good pump like Godsmack, Shinedown, Five Finger Death Puch, hard rock like that.

The problem is, you can’t run to that.

This came on in the gym when I was on the elliptical and damn, it is the perfect cadence for me.

I understand why so many gays are thin and good looking, they have the best music to run to.
