Gun Free Zone

I read J. Kb’s post and I had to shake my head

So you are in jail, arrested after some dust off at the local night establishment or some incident in the streets and your Public Defender shows up. You ask her what are her qualifications and she throws at you the fact that her box is only munched by those of the same gastronomic tendencies and that should be enough. This is the moment you need to go to a Loan Shark and get money for a real lawyer.

It would appear the accuser based her story on an episode of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit up to the point of the name of the store, the article of clothing and where in the store.

No way! Trump’s clearly unhinged accuser claims he raped her in a Manhattan Bergdoff dressing room…..it’s literally the plot line to an old “Law and Order” episode. pic.twitter.com/4J0eajQpIv

Listen, I understand you hate Trump with all your guts and are ready to bring him down by any means necessary, but stop messing with rape. People are now so sicked by the misuse of the accusation they are bound to cast a serious doubt in the real events and that only favors the real sexual predators.

Five dead after golf-course dispute leads to shooting, fire in California

What?  No way.

An argument that started at a California pitch-and-putt golf course led to five people being killed in a shooting and fire, according to the Santa Maria Times.

Santa Maria residents and police said that a long-standing feud between three men boiled over on Friday at the Casa Grande Mobile Estates golf course, about 140 miles northwest of Los Angeles. After the three men were seen arguing, gunshots were fired. One of the men was shot inside the clubhouse, while another was found dead on the grass nearby.

A golf feud turns deadly, I bet you never thought you’d read about that.

Police identified Kurt Backe, 70, and Richard Hansen, 78, as the victims who were fatally shot at the course. The shooter has yet to be identified.

Holy shit, wow.  I’m going to go out on a limb and postulate that the shooter was a septuagenarian too.

Police believe the suspect returned to his mobile home after the shooting. The gunman’s home then went up in flames after a small explosion, and the fire spread to nearby homes before it could be put out. The situation was made even worse by ammunition exploding from the gunman’s home.

“All throughout the firefighting efforts, ammunition was cooking off,” Police Chief Phil Hansen said to the AP.

Live fast, die young, go out with a bang.

Authorities initially found two bodies, one of which is believed to be the gunman’s, in the rubble of the house. But a third body was found in the rubble of the burned-out mobile home on Saturday, bringing the total number killed up to five.

Somebody was not having a relaxing retirement, that’s for sure.

What I learned here is: the next time the old dude wants a mulligan, just let him have it.

Seriously, with all my heart. I can’t wake up without a raging headache, I had two cases of sun strike so I can’t go outside between the hours and June and November. The car is still burning to the touch inside at midnight and shit still needs to be done and that means I have to leave the Cocoon Of Cool.

And then you have the overly-cheerful people going “Yay! It is the summer! Let’s go outside and have fun!!”  and the only reason you don’t pop their asses from your air conditioned shooting perch is because it is more fun to watch them burn their skins and suffer sun strokes themselves.

And of course, life laughs at me. I lived all my life in a tropical country hating the heat and I get to move to South Florida where the heat is in constant copulation with humidity and you get to “enjoy” it like an ugly live porn show in Mombasa .  With my luck, next I have to move in the Everglades or the Louisiana Bayou.

I have to go out now….

Tiffany Caban Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and ran for District Attorney of Queens in New York.

She was heavily endorsed by AOC herself.

Ending the War on Drugs means we must transform DA offices across the country.

In Queens, @CabanForQueens wants to set a new model for the country:
✅ End Cash Bail
✅ Stop Prosecuting Drug Use (it’s a HEALTH issue!)
✅ No Corporate $

Caban won the election.  This is how she chose to announce it:

This campaign started with just four women, sitting around a kitchen table, saying: we have to change the system.

So I did what many thought was unthinkable for a 31-year-old Queer Latina public defender whose parents grew up in the Woodside Houses. I decided to run.

— Tiffany Cabán (@tiffany_caban) June 26, 2019

I don’t care that she is either queer or Latina.  That she clearly has made this central to her political identity does not bode well.  As we have seen so often in recent history, identity politics and social justice are almost always in conflict with actual justice.

We built a campaign to reduce recidivism.
Decriminalize poverty.
End mass incarceration.
To protect our immigrant communities.
Keep people rooted in their communities with the access to support and services.

— Tiffany Cabán (@tiffany_caban) June 26, 2019

The changes we are fighting for will mean a fairer and more equitable and more effective criminal justice system.

That doesn't come at the cost of safety—it is the source of safety.

— Tiffany Cabán (@tiffany_caban) June 26, 2019

Transforming this system will not be easy, and it will not happen overnight. But I am ready. We are ready.

So what I’m reading here is that violence in Queens is going to go up.  Qualiy of life will decrease as quality of life crimes skyrocket.  The streets will run red with blood and brown with human shit.  Open-air drug use will be everywhere, and makeshift tent cities will appear in every lot.

It’s not hard to predict this, because Caban’s rhetoric is the same as every politician in every major West Coast city that now has a standard of living that is comparable to the slums of Mumbai.

I’m going to start following the news out of Queens to track the decline.

Because of stuff like this:

Hang them next to the Pineapple Pizza Heretics.  🙂

Blog Brother George from The Universal Spectator just sent me this:

Dear David, talk to the Secret Service about assassinations and they will tell you something like this: If you are breathing and unhurt, you are not a target.  Brother George points something out that bears repeating here: “This kid has acute narcissistic personality disorder” and he is right.

David did not know that the “victim” stars in the Gun Control constellation come with an expiration date in both usefulness, freshness and Media appeal.  And he is feeling the lack of Media love also because let’s face it, Getting inside Harvard with an SAT that is good enough for community college only made you look bad. Add to that the scandal about parent buying school entrance for their kids and even the least suspicious mind starts to wonder how the heck di you manage to get into the big H.

And now that your ego is hurt because you are not getting video fluffed by Jimmy Fallon or George Streptococcus you come up with this assassination thing. Now, it may work within the core Left and up north, but down here in South Florida? In South Florida full of people who escaped dictatorships that used the “assassination attempt” excuse to order mass arrests and extra-judicial killings?  Used to restrict or eliminate basic human right? Used and abused so much it became a joke? No kidding, Hugo Chavez on average while he was alive claimed one assassination attempt every six months. And not to be less, President Maduro constantly claims the US is trying to kill him.

Bravo David, trying to get your star shinning again, you chose the path of South American dictators.

Actually, it is fitting.
