The more of these videos that I see, the more I support cops just kicking the ever living crap out of people.

Teens
About 1,000 ‘teens’ rushed in and ‘took over’ an Orlando attraction. They rushed ICON Park on International Drive, which is in the heart of Orlando’s tourist area just down the street from the Orlando Convention center. I used to go to the area a lot- there is a lot to do there, and the restaurants are pretty good. ICON park has a large Ferris wheel called the Orlando Eye.
What did these ‘teens’ do when they got there? Why, they started fights, ran off paying customers, and punched the cops who responded. Nine of them were arrested and two cops were injured. The ‘teens’ were exactly what you would expect them to be. Damned Norwegians and Amish people cause trouble wherever they go.
Anyhow, the families of these poor victims of systemic racism are complaining and threatening to sue. This is why I stay far away from Orlando these days. It used to be that teens stayed in their part of town. Now that isn’t the case any longer.

More Info, the Manifesto
Fifteen minutes ago, the Washington Post released what they are calling the shooter’s “manifesto.” It was reportedly sent to family ten minutes before shots were fired, so I would class it more as a suicide note. Here is the full text:
Hello everybody!
So I may have given a lot of people a surprise today. Let me start off by apologizing to everyone whose trust I abused.
I apologize to my parents for saying I had an interview without specifying it was for “Most Wanted.”
I apologize to my colleagues and students for saying I had a personal emergency (by the time anyone reads this, I probably most certainly DO need to go to the ER, but can hardly call that not a self-inflicted status.)
I apologize to all of the people I traveled next to, all the workers who handled my luggage, and all the other non-targeted people at the hotel who I put in danger simply by being near.
I apologize to everyone who was abused and/or murdered before this, to all those who suffered before I was able to attempt this, to all who may still suffer after, regardless of my success or failure.
I don’t expect forgiveness, but if I could have seen any other way to get this close, I would have taken it. Again, my sincere apologies.
On to why I did any of this:
I am a citizen of the United States of America.
What my representatives do reflects on me.
And I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.
(Well, to be completely honest, I was no longer willing a long time ago, but this is the first real opportunity I’ve had to do something about it.)
While I’m discussing this, I’ll also go over my expected rules of engagement (probably in a terrible format, but I’m not military so too bad.)
Administration officials (not including Mr. Patel): they are targets, prioritized from highest-ranking to lowest
Secret Service: they are targets only if necessary, and to be incapacitated non-lethally if possible (aka, I hope they’re wearing body armor because center mass with shotguns messes up people who *aren’t*
Hotel Security: not targets if at all possible (aka unless they shoot at me)
Capitol Police: same as Hotel Security
National Guard: same as Hotel Security
Hotel Employees: not targets at all
Guests: not targets at all
In order to minimize casualties I will also be using buckshot rather than slugs (less penetration through walls)
I would still go through most everyone here to get to the targets if it were absolutely necessary (on the basis that most people *chose* to attend a speech by a pedophile, rapist, and traitor, and are thus complicit) but I really hope it doesn’t come to that.
Rebuttals to objections:
Objection 1: As a Christian, you should turn the other cheek.
Rebuttal: Turning the other cheek is for when you yourself are oppressed. I’m not the person raped in a detention camp. I’m not the fisherman executed without trial. I’m not a schoolkid blown up or a child starved or a teenage girl abused by the many criminals in this administration.
Turning the other cheek when *someone else* is oppressed is not Christian behavior; it is complicity in the oppressor’s crimes.
Objection 2: This is not a convenient time for you to do this.
Rebuttal: I need whoever thinks this way to take a couple minutes and realize that the world isn’t about them. Do you think that when I see someone raped or murdered or abused, I should walk on by because it would be “inconvenient” for people who aren’t the victim?
This was the best timing and chance of success I could come up with.
Objection 3: You didn’t get them all.
Rebuttal: Gotta start somewhere.
Objection 4: As a half-black, half-white person, you shouldn’t be the one doing this.
Rebuttal: I don’t see anyone else picking up the slack
Objection 5: Yield unto Caesar what is Caesar’s.
Rebuttal: The United States of America are ruled by the law, not by any one or several people. In so far as representatives and judges do not follow the law, no one is required to yield them anything so unlawfully ordered.
I would also like to extend my appreciation to a great many people since I will not be likely to be able to talk with them again (unless the Secret Service is *astoundingly* incompetent.)
Thank you to my family, both personal and church, for your love over these 31 years.
Thank you to my friends, for your companionship over many years.
Thank you to my colleagues over many jobs, for your positivity and professionalism.
Thank you to my students for your enthusiasm and love of learning.
Thank you to the many acquaintances I’ve met, in person and online, for short interactions and long-term relationships, for your perspectives and inspiration.
Thank you all for everything.
Sincerely,
Cole “coldForce” “Friendly Federal Assassin” Allen
PS: Ok now that all the sappy stuff is done, what the hell is the Secret Service doing? Sorry, gonna rant a bit here and drop the formal tone.
Like, I expected security cameras at every bend, bugged hotel rooms, armed agents every 10 feet, metal detectors out the wazoo.
What I got (who knows, maybe they’re pranking me!) is nothing.
No damn security.
Not in transport.
Not in the hotel.
Not in the event.
Like, the one thing that I immediately noticed walking into the hotel is the sense of arrogance.
I walk in with multiple weapons and not a single person there considers the possibility that I could be a threat.
The security at the event is all outside, focused on protestors and current arrivals, because apparently no one thought about what happens if someone checks in the day before.
Like, this level of incompetence is insane, and I very sincerely hope it’s corrected by the time this country gets actually competent leadership again.
Like, if I was an Iranian agent, instead of an American citizen, I could have brought a damn Ma Deuce in here and no one would have noticed shit.
Actually insane.
Oh and if anyone is curious is how doing something like feels: it’s awful. I want to throw up; I want to cry for all the things I wanted to do and never will, for all the people whose trust this betrays; I experience rage thinking about everything this administration has done.
Can’t really recommend it! Stay in school, kids.
This guy is clearly sane, clearly leftist, and clearly planned this out. He’s a smart guy. CalTech isn’t a school for idiots. The insanity defense isn’t going to work here. His biggest flaw, and IMO the reason his plan failed, is real life isn’t like a first person shooter video game. He expected to sail through level after level of increasingly serious opponents until he faced down and defeated the “big boss.”
Look, the Secret Service has a limited budget. They can’t search everyone and their hotel rooms. This is still the US and people still have civil rights. Instead, they layer security. He made it through the outer layer, which was staffed by hotel staff and local police. He got to the first layer staffed by Secret Service personnel, and decided to run through the checkpoint. He didn’t make it. Had he, there would have been more and heavier opposition, but there was no way he would have made it all the way to the room where a gaggle of protectees was sitting.
On a larger note, the left has declared war on the nation. Read social media for a bit. I do, and what the left wants for us is no less than a full on communist utopia, with themselves as sitting around writing poetry, painting pictures, and playing video games while the rest of us toil in the factories, fields, and gulags. That’s why they hate the electoral college- they don’t think those of us who live in flyover America deserve a say, because we are all uneducated racist rednecks who are busy fornicating with our sisters.
It’s coming. Keep stocking up on supplies.

More Information
As usual, in the immediate aftermath of any event, things reported as facts are just wrong. Even eyewitnesses claim to have seen things that it later turns out they could not possibly have seen. Call it the fog of war, it’s like playing telephone as a kid. As I wake up this morning, the reports now are that the suspect is a 31 year old teacher named Cole Tomas Allen. He graduated from CalTech and was known to have donated to the Harris campaign in October of 2024. No other political activity has been reported at this time. He lived in Torrance, CA with his parents in a home they moved into six months ago. He was a guest at the hotel, and charged the first security checkpoint armed with a shotgun, a handgun, and several knives.
Security camera footage released by Trump on social media shortly after the incident shows the suspect running past security officers who appear to be disassembling the metal detectors. Once the president was seated in the ballroom, additional attendees were not permitted to enter the secured area, which is why they were taking them down.
It appears that the shooter was able to be captured without being shot because the moron tripped and fell as he ran through the checkpoint.
One witness, Erin Thielman, a military veteran, left the ballroom to call her son and said she had heard three loud bangs that she believed to be gunfire. She saw a man fall flat right in front of her and said he was carrying what appeared to be a rifle and magazines.
Videos of National Guard troops and agents running around, weapons bared, screaming “Blue, blue!” to prevent blue on blue incidents. Democrats are claiming that this is staged, because real Secret Service have radios and don’t need to yell. When I tried pointing out yelling blue on a radio doesn’t work for that purpose, because the person in your radio earpiece can be miles away, so doing that is just stepping on radio transmissions for no reason, but yelling lets the people in front of you know who is who, I was told by these experts in firearms, shooting, and law enforcement who all graduated from the Dunning Krueger school of all knowledge, that I don’t know what I am talking about.
Of course the left is busy screaming that this entire thing is a false flag, just as they do after every assassination attempt on Trump’s life, even as many Democrats call for his death. That is stupid, for the same reason Alex Jones’ claims about Sandy Hook were stupid. You can’t get thousands of people to all tell a fake story like that, and not have at least one of them decide to come clean in order to be famous. In case you are keeping a count, this is the fourth time in the past two years that someone has attempted to murder Donald Trump. The score is two would-be assassins dead, one serving life in prison, and one in custody awaiting trial.
If I recall, Alex Jones was sued and ordered to pay a billion dollars for claiming the Sandy Hook shooting was false. So why isn’t someone suing the left for the same thing? Probably because the ones saying this don’t have jobs or money, and are posting that from their mom’s basement.
As to videos of the shooting itself, I am always fascinated at how the Secret Service does their job when an incident like this occurs.
That’s all I have for now.
EDITED TO ADD:
The press is claiming this to be the third attempt, but I don’t think they are counting the guy who attempted to enter Mar a Lago with the shotgun, because Trump wasn’t there at the time. I still count that one, because it was an attempt. I didn’t say it was a good one, just that it was an attempt. None of these idiots are any good at trying to assassinate the President. They aren’t good at a whole lot of anything- who charges a secret service detail with a shotgun, after all?
It turns out that I was not counting all of them. In all, there have been 18 security incidents involving President Trump. Nine of them have been what I would call attempts at assassination, and 5 of those have happened in the past two years.
- On June 18, 2016, Michael Steven Sandford attempted to grab a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officer’s pistol and expressed his desire to murder Trump.
- On September 6, 2017 Gregory Lee Leingang stole a forklift and attempted to drive it toward the presidential motorcade and admitted his intent to murder the president by flipping the presidential limousine with the stolen forklift.
- On August 10, 2020, Trump was escorted from a press briefing by a Secret Service agent after an armed suspect was shot outside the White House fencing.
- On September 20, 2020, Pascale Cécile Véronique Ferrier wrote a ricin-laced letter to Trump.
- On July 13, 2024, Thomas Crooks fired eight shots from an AR-15–style rifle at Trump near Butler, Pennsylvania.
- On September 15, 2024, Ryan Routh waited for Trump at a golf course while armed with a rifle in West Palm Beach, Florida, later admitting he was trying to kill the President and had at least one accomplice
- On November 8, 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice charged Farhad Shakeri, an Afghani citizen, along with Carlisle Rivera and Jonathan Loadholt (whom Shakeri had met in a U.S. prison) in connection with another murder-for-hire plot to kill the President at the request of Iran
- On February 22, 2026, the United States Secret Service shot and killed Austin Tucker Martin, a 21-year-old man from Cameron, North Carolina, who was reportedly carrying a shotgun and gas canister onto the grounds of Mar-a-Lago
- and now last night’s attempt.
Crime
Death
Anyone who reads this blog knows I am opposed to the death penalty- not in theory, but because too many in our court system are willing to lie, cheat, and right the system to get convictions whether or not the accused is innocent.
With that being said, anyone who would spend an hour raping and murdering a 7 year old little girl while she cried for her mother deserves to be killed in the most painful way that can be arranged.
This animal pled guilty, claiming he panicked after accidently hitting her with his FEDEX work van. Video showed otherwise, and audio captured after he covered the camera caught the rape and murder.
The family’s life has been torn apart. Kill him. There is no way to make him well again, but there is a way to make sure he never kills again. Society failed that little girl. Let’s no fail another.

We Forgot
Remember 9/11, we won’t forget?
Until NYC elected a Muslim mayor. Now the Muslims put prayer rugs right on top of the list of firefighters killed on 9/11.
and don’t tell me bullshit about inside jobs. I have friends who were there that day, some died, most didn’t. I won’t permit such half baked comments.
I was on shift that day, friends died. So keep that shit on your own blog.
Crime
Suspicious
The man who was shot dead by Secret Service agents after entering Mar a Lago armed with a shotgun at 0130 this morning had been reported missing by has family less than 12 hours earlier, and local police had notified the FBI.
Twelve hours isn’t even long enough for a missing person report, much less FBI notification. What else was known that made this necessary? Did he leave a manifesto or something?
Now all of the news stories I found from when he went missing have been scrubbed. The left is already claiming it to be a false flag designed to boost Trump’s numbers.
Too many more Trump assassination attempts, and i will have to create a blog category specifically for this.
Cops
Police Shooting
Today, I came across a 2023 incident in San Bernardino involving a shootout between a deputy and a criminal. The action begins at the 10:00 mark.
The lesson here is stay in the fight, even after being wounded.
Cops
Shooting
A Walmart in Poinciana Florida, an unincorporated community that spans Osceola and Polk County, had been hiring off duty Sheriff’s deputies as security. One of them confronted a group of “teens” who had been shoplifting. That’s when one of the youths decided to pull a gun on the Deputy, thereby changing his crime from misdemeanor larceny into armed robbery, a forcible felony.
The Deputy conducted an impromptu ballistics test of his .45 ACP caliber Glock, which performed as expected. The crowd became a bit irate because the deputy shot a “kid,” so another off duty deputy, along with an off duty firefighter, both of whom happened to be in the store and were armed, assisted the original deputy in securing the crime scene until others could arrive. I can’t post the link to the tweet with the video, because it’s been restricted. Click on the tweet below and take a look.
