I could have started this with the Dodd story, but I thought

he deserved mention all on his corrupt own. So I'll open this with Since the clowns in DC don't want to enforce the borders, this kind of thing happens and causes states to say "Screw you, DC, we'll do something ourselves."

Pinal County sheriff’s Lt. Tamatha Villar says the deputy suffered a superficial wound to his abdomen after being shot with an AK-47 assault rifle Friday afternoon.

Villar says the deputy was doing smuggling interdiction work and found bales of marijuana in the desert. He then encountered five suspected illegal immigrants, two armed with rifles, and was shot.

At last check, the suspects were shooting at police helicopters in hot pursuit. More from CNN:

Pinal County is located between Phoenix and Tuscon and has been described as a key transit point for illegal immigrants. Sheriff Paul Babeu told CNN that an estimated 80 percent of illegal immigrants eventually pass through his county along the way to other locations.

Considering this is drug smugglers out of Mexico from the sound of it, they might actually have real AK47's; what was that crap about 'guns being smuggled INTO Mexico from the US'?


Be interesting if it turns out the National Inquirer is doing the reporting the professional major media won't do. But then, as Insty says, When was the last time they got one of these things right? . . . .


Free Speech wins one against sharia, but it took a threatened lawsuit to get the bus weenies to honor their contract.
On April 13 our ads began running on Miami buses. On Friday, April 16, after CAIR complained, Miami-Dade Transit pulled our ads. The reason? Karla Damian, a spokesperson for Transit, said they might be “offensive to Islam.”

It was an outrageous denial of our free speech rights, and a stunning capitulation to Sharia. Even worse, it was a blatantly inconsistent application of Miami-Dade Transit’s policies: CAIR and other Muslim Brotherhood-linked groups ran campaigns on buses across the country last year, including Miami, inviting people to convert to Islam and claiming that Abraham, Moses, and Jesus were Muslim prophets. Miami-Dade Transit allowed the CAIR bus ads, despite how offensive they were to Jews and Christians.

In December 2008, the Miami Herald ran a glowing piece on the CAIR bus ad campaign, which ran in Miami-Dade and Broward counties for eight weeks. No one took offense, despite the Islamic supremacist nature of the ads. No one breathed a word of protest.

It was important to counterbalance this offensive appropriation of the founding figures of Judaism and Christianity and outright deception with a healthy message. But although Miami-Dade Transit had no trouble with CAIR’s offensive message, they found our defense of religious freedom unacceptable.


'Citizen Gore', hehehehe...
Famed in American legend is the origin of the Gore legend. Raised in a humble Georgetown penthouse, he was left the deed to a supposedly worthless abandoned Tennessee Senate seat. Instead it housed the famed 1992 Clinton lode. For 50 years thereafter, there was no American issue on which he took no stand, no microphone by which he would pass. He urge America to one war, and later condemned America's participation in another. Oh, wait. That was the same war.

In politics, always a bridesmaid, never a bride.


From Theo, we find eight nasty ways to die in the jungle. They do leave out anaconda and python, but these are definitely nasty ways to go.


I've heard of troubles with neighbors, but damn...
Giovannini told police that after being struck, he looked and observed his neighbor, later identified as Robert Wood, 41, entering his home. The victim then noticed an arrow protruding from his back and yelled for his girlfriend to call police and an ambulance arrived immediately.


Gee, a bill put together by a bunch of nanny-state jackasses to control the auto companies and so forth.... what could possible be/go wrong?


Damn, it's raining again.


Ah, the mind of(to quote Kim) Richard 'The Turd' Daley: if he can't get what he wants, he'll ask the international nannies to force us to give it to him.
Friday, April 30, 2010: Fearful that America’s Supreme Court will soon strike down Chicago’s handgun ban, frustrated by the Illinois legislature’s rejection of his anti-gun agenda, and repudiated by American courts and legislatures over his plan to sue federally licensed manufacturers and dealers of firearms for third-party crimes, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley (D) is showing contempt for his own country’s and state’s institutions, by seeking a foreign entity to enforce his anti-gun agenda against the American people. This week, Daley called for “redress against the gun industry” in the World Court, in The Hague, Netherlands. Forgetting or not caring who his constituents are, Daley blurted “This is coming from international mayors. They’re saying, ‘We’re tired of your guns, America.’”
Attention Daley, you statist bastard: WE'RE tired of your corruption, your desire to control our lives and you; so fuck off. You think we like the idea of 'international mayors' telling us how to live? What we can own? Fuck you twice, you miserable little dirtbag. Your little friends want to call in the National Guard to try and control crime in the city your family has run for decades, and this is what you want to do?


Ah, the sun is out, and I've got some stuff I need to pick up. So you're on your own for a while.
