A cop is found passed out drunk in his patrol car. The police decide not to do a blood alcohol check, so he gets away with it. His blood alcohol was 5 times the legal limit, but because police did not follow procedure, the results of the test can’t be used in court. The supervisor who made the call is being allowed to retire without penalty.

The police chief claims it is not a cover up. Police know what needs to be done to make a case stick. Procedure was not followed, and this prevented charges from being filed. Officers didn’t even inform their own police department for over 9 months. This appears to have been done deliberately as a way to keep the ‘blue wall of silence’ intact.

If there is indeed no cover up, each officer who failed to report this crime should be terminated.

Another reason not to buy a Tesla. This guy bought one used, and the company remotely disabled the autopilot because he didn’t buy it from the factory. 

Apparently, attorneys don’t have a right to free speech, since this one got suspended for saying “Never trust a Muslim” on social media, and also expressing his religious beliefs:

“If the homosexual continues committing that sin of sodomy, his soul faces ETERNAL damnation,” McBath wrote on Facebook in February 2018. “Abstain, if you really have that mental illness. It’s not love.”

A man with a lengthy rap sheet for homicide, weapons possession, and possession of a machine gun decided to ambush a pair of cops in their patrol vehicle, then hours later entered a police station and opened fire. Just two years after being paroled from a 2002 incident that involved a gunfight with police, a carjacking, and shooting another man.

I am sure there are more laws here that have been broken, but tell me how one more law will make a difference.

So a 19 year old and a 17 year old murder their 18 year old drug dealer while trying to rob him. Let’s recap:

1 it is illegal to sell or buy drugs
2 it is illegal for anyone under 21 to buy a handgun
3 it is illegal for a minor to have any firearm
4 it is illegal to rob someone
5 it is illegal to murder someone

but hey, what we need here is another gun law

TSA apparently means tit show authority. This TSA agent pulled a female passenger into an elevator, and then demanded that the woman bare her breasts and allow him to look down her pants. Not only should this guy have been fired and charged, but his supervisor should be fired as well for failing to properly supervise his employee. How can a male employee take a female passenger off to a secluded area without anyone noticing? and what happened to the security station that this employee was supposed to be monitoring?

The press is reporting that firefighters let a house burn down because they were afraid of ammo in the home. I am guessing that the press got this wrong and the firefighters remained outside because there was ammunition in the house. This is called ‘going defensive’- essentially allowing the house to burn down while protecting nearby structures- because it is too dangerous for firefighters to enter. Usually, defensive strategies in a single family home are caused by a fire being so advanced that there is a significant risk of either building collapse or the fire is so intense that there is a high risk of injury.

I sincerely hope the defensive strategy wasn’t due to ammunition. Unless it is loaded into a firearm, small arms ammunition doesn’t pose a risk to those nearby. The show Myth Busters already proved that. The International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC), Sporting Arms and Ammunition Manufacturers’ Institute (SAAMI), and the National Shooting Sports Foundation agree with the assessment that small arms ammunition does not present a significant risk under fire conditions, if the ammunition is not supported by a firearm chamber.

Last month, I received a pair of Facebook bans. Apparently, they have noticed that I am to the right of Joseph Stalin have thusly been declared an enemy of the state by someone down there. I have been banned for 30 days, but that hasn’t stopped them from looking through my FB history, I guess. My account is now in a “warning” status and I will not be permitted to purchase Facebook advertising, and face a permanent ban if more violations are found. I have so far not been told anything beyond “something you posted violated our community standards.”

In search of the reasoning behind this, I came across this article. So apparently, anyone that Facebook deems to be a racist will be banned. They are blaming the Christchurch massacre.

“Starting today, people who have broken certain rules on Facebook — including our Dangerous Organizations and Individuals policy — will be restricted from using Facebook Live,” Guy Rosen, Facebook’s vice president of integrity, wrote in a Tuesday blog post.
A comprehensive list of offenses that would see a user barred from Live wasn’t included, although the examples used all had to do with circulating terrorist-related content. (emphasis added)

When I received the original ban, they did reference the “Dangerous Organizations and Individuals policy” which they claimed I was in violation of. My first offense of this policy was my posting of a picture of the inside of a Venezuelan hospital emergency room with the caption “This is where government run healthcare ends up.” According to Facebook, that makes me a dangerous terrorist.

I would note that Facebook has no problem with Antifa being on their site.  Antifa has caused more violent attacks than I have (I have not caused any)

A mother of 4 who makes only $12.50 an hour is complaining that she doesn’t have a car and wants taxpayers to support her commute because it takes her 7 hours a day to commute to work.  Here is an oddball suggestion: Move closer to your job.

A mother of 4 making $25K a year is getting $500 in food stamps, as well as welfare. She could move closer to her job and find a 4 bedroom apartment at the same (or lower) rent.

I don’t see why I should have to pay more in taxes to support a transportation system that I do not use.
