Or just a gay rapist? The rapes happened in 2005 to 2008. The victims are in their 30’s and 40’s. Doing the math, his victims could have been as young as 16. Spacey was in his 40’s at the time.
Is there anyone in a position of wealth and power in this country that isn’t a sexual deviant?
That doesn’t appear to be the case, because they had no problem here. I’m wondering where the ‘tip’ that he was making guns came from. We all know about the NSA analysis of internet traffic. Was it that?
I’m glad he was caught, but what is a guy with 9 felony convictions doing as a free man?
Anther shooting, and the left is predictably dancing in the victim’s blood before the scene is even cleared or the families of the dead are notified. It’s so predictable: calls for gun control that would not have mattered. The current calls are for universal background checks (in other words, gun registration). This young man who did the shooting had a clear record, would have passed a background check, and a proposed BG check law would have done nothing.
No, every shooting and its victims are simply political fodder to advance a political agenda. The left doesn’t give a rip about the victims, except to the extent that they can be used to advance that agenda, truth and facts be damned. As we proved just this week on this very blog, the left doesn’t care about facts, logic, or the truth.
To debate the left about gun control is a complete waste of time, because they won’t listen. So I just won’t do it. You want gun control? No. Your move.
No, what I want to talk about is social media’s responsibility for this shooting. He was a troubled child that grew into a troubled young man. The clues were there, but as often happens in these cases, no one said anything. Word is, the shooter posted pictures of his guns to social media, and said that a shooting was coming. He actually told one woman it was coming.
In the hours leading up to the killings, the shooter reportedly showed off his guns to an LA-based woman via his Instagram page, taunting that he was ‘about to do’ something.
When the woman asked what, he said: ‘I’ll tell you before 11.’ He began shooting at noon.
The school had purchased technology to monitor social media, but it apparently didn’t work.
So now we come to the point I am trying to make. I have been tossed into Facebook jail dozens of times. Sometimes within minutes of posting something that didn’t agree with their leftist viewpoints. So how can a person post threats to carry out a mass shooting, and Instagram (the site where the threatening posts were made) didn’t notice?
The technology exists for social media companies to monitor what people post. We know it, because they have done it for the past several years. Why don’t they report these things? The only possible answer is that they don’t because they WANT more shootings so the dead victims can be used to advance their agenda.
It seems like there isn’t a day that goes by without a teacher getting caught have sex with children. This time it’s a male Lake County, Florida middle school teacher who forced a male student to perform sex acts while the child was at his house.
Someone in Canada robbed at gunpoint? Impossible. Canada has all of those gun laws.
It seems that the CDC has been doing firearm homicide studies. The study found that the rate of gun homicides among Black males between the ages of 10-24 was 21.6 times higher than white males of the same age. I guarantee you that this means the CDC is about to have its gun violence budget cut.
The CDC also claimed that the study showed that planting trees and grass on vacant lots reduces firearm violence by nearly a third.
Democrats are down in the polls, and so we have two mass shootings in two days. What’s up with that?
Once is happenstance, twice coincidence, three times is enemy action. Where will the third one be?
Revisiting the police shooting at a Central Florida Target store, it looks like the police DID get this one right. There was a gun in the car (a gold plated Glock with a 30 round magazine) and the criminals tried using their car to ram police vehicles and run over a deputy.
The deputies involved were detectives and were not road deputies, so did not have body cameras. However, the police did release security camera video from the Target store that shows the Audi with the critters in it ramming police vehicles.
Of course, there are apologists for the criminals. Sandman USAF had this to say:
There is no law in Florida that says I can’t carry an extended magazine just like I can have a military style rifle thay I have used in Afghanistan. No one should die for petty theft of some trading cards.
My reply to that was this:
Lie. The rifle you would have carried in Afghanistan would have been a military M4, which is classified under US law as a “machine gun” and has been outlawed since 1986. There is a law that says you can’t carry a handgun unless you have a permit, which people under 21 cannot get. They didn’t die for Pokemon and Pizza. They died because they tried to use their car as a weapon against cops.
Had they surrendered to the cops, it is likely that nothing would have happened to them. Target doesn’t want even charges pressed. Even if Target wanted to press charges, a plea deal would have meant misdemeanor petty theft charges and some probation. Instead, these pillars of the community (/sarc) turned what would have been a stern talking to into attempted murder of a cop and a police shooting. Stupidity.
Look at this picture of a “protester” tossing a Molotov cocktail at a Wisconsin church, and reflect on Florida law:
Throwing a Molotov cocktail is arson, which is a forcible felony. A Molotov cocktail is also considered to be a destructive device under 790.001. Throwing one is a forcible felony Participating in a riot whereby the participants are forcibly and violently attempting to destroy any building is a forcible felony under 870.03.
Forcible felony, according to 776.08, includes arson, aggravated assault, and the unlawful throwing, placing, or discharging a destructive device or bomb, and any other felony that involves the use or threat of force.
If you see this in Florida, deadly force is authorized. You can shoot this fucker dead in the face.
Four men, aged 18 to 20, decided to cover the license plate on their car and enter a target in Kissimmee, FL in order to steal pizzas and Pokemon cards from the store. Security called the local gendarmes, who arrived and attempted to take the young men into custody. For some reason, the police perceived a threat and opened fire, killing one and injuring one of them.
The police are having to keep silent until the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), who investigates all police shootings, completes its investigation. Their attorneys have been all over Central Florida news, claiming that the police overreacted and shot the men for no reason at all. The local press has been eating it up.
One of the claims that the lawyers are making is that the police never identified themselves as cops. At the same time, they are also claiming that the cops shot the men, even though they had raised their hands in surrender. The usual claims of racism aren’t available to them, because the deputies involved were the same race as the critters who were shot.
If you have read this blog any amount of time, you know that I don’t always side with the cops. Sometimes, I agree with what they do, sometimes, I don’t. This case is one of the former, in my opinion.
One question that has been raised throws cold water on the attorney’s claims: If the cops didn’t identify themselves, then why did the criminals raise their hands in surrender?
Those young men weren’t choirboys. They went there with the intent of stealing, as evidenced by their covering of the license plate with tape. Their records indicate some of who these men were/are:
On top of it, Nejame (the attorney) is well known in the area as being the lawyer who represented Casey Anthony, the woman who got a 13th trimester abortion. He represents the criminal element of Central Florida.
