"Hey, let's pay Amazon to put a bug in our house
that we don't know what will do!" No, thank you.
The father of four says a team busted through the front door, threw flash bangs, knocked pictures off walls, damaged the ceiling and burned holes through clothes and carpet.
At the wrong damned house. Again.
Sheriff's office spokesman James Bradford wouldn't say if the Renck family would be compensated for the damage.
"Hey, we trash your house, not our problem to fix the damage."
Along that line, Comey is screaming about the damage to the EffingBI caused by Congress investigation the crap he was in charge of; let's have a blast from the past:
In fact, years-long violations of the rules about the FBI’s use of secret spies have led to massive investigations across every branch of government, including a multi-volume, 3,528-page congressional investigative report in 2003, a scathing 314-page report from the Department of Justice (DOJ) inspector general in 2005, and even a scathing 228-page, $102 million ruling against the government in 2007 after a federal judge ruled that the FBI deliberately withheld evidence, leading to the wrongful convictions of four men, in order to protect a mob informant. (Three of the men were originally sentenced to death; two died in prison awaiting justice for a crime they didn’t commit.)
The 2007 ruling from U.S. District Court Judge Gertner, which the federal government chose not to appeal, reads more like a John Grisham novel than it does a legal dictum. In her introduction, Gertner made clear that the horrific miscarriage of justice perpetrated under the guise of the FBI’s confidential spy program wasn’t the result of innocent missteps by a few bad apples, but was instead a coordinated conspiracy involving the rogue agents, their supervisors, and even the FBI director himself.
But we're not supposed to question their activities now, and if we do we hate America and apple pie and all. Right. Speaking of:
"You will damage national security if you find out how much money we're wasting!"
But we can trust them. About everything. Right.

Of course this is unpossible,
the left says so.*
ALERT: The only confirmed fatality is the suspect. He was apparently shot-to-death by an armed citizen. Three citizens were injured, two of whom were shot. A large number of witnesses are detained. There is no indication of terrorismat this point.
As someone has said, "Carry. It's a lot lighter than regret."
*Of course, they lie.

Bet you that if it'd been a Che shirt and someone felt offended,
they'd have received a lecture about free speech. It is Oregon.
Seattle city council decides it wants lots more people to leave.
That's not what they call it, but it's what is means.

Forget it, Jake, it's Broward County.
QED: For her excellence at ignoring every possible warning to protect
the school’s budget, the bureaucracy is going to reward her.
For the bureaucracy, a school shooting is the best thing that could happen. Nobody got fired, nobody is going to jail, everybody is keeping their pensions, and the school gets more money for security and can hire more six figure bureaucrats to manage school security.
No, I’m not being cynical or sarcastic. This is 100% accurate.
That is fucking horrifying.

We now turn from bitching about news, politicians and socialists
to one of the things I started this blog for: shootyness.
Once I figured out how to pour in the Lee 405-grain hollowbase mold and got good bullets*, I've been impressed with how they shoot. Both with black and smokeless powder. The basic 26.0 of Accurate 5744 shoots quite nicely at 100, I do my part I get groups around an inch. Today tried it with 70.0 grains of 2f black:
I started with five rounds, and the first one was way high, at which time I realized the elevation on the sight was way off. Dammit. So adjusted and shot this, which is four rounds. Which is impressive as hell to me.
And one other gun: remember that Cadet? While back while messing with loads for it, I tried dropping a .32 semi-wadcutter intended for pistols in the muzzle, and thought "Hmmm, that seems like it might fit decently", so loaded five.
The results were terrible; he showed me the target, at thirty yards two had keyholed and the other three were spread out badly. Then, a short time later, I had an idea: those bullets had been cast of the mongrel alloy I use for general shooting, so might it work better if cast of a softer alloy? Say, the 15-1 I use for .45-70? So borrowed the mold and next time I was casting I made some of these. And they did this at 50 yards:
MUCH better. I'm going to have to make some more of these for future testing.
And now I need to move some stuff so I don't trip on it later, and get some sleep.
*For me it was running the lead hotter than usual, and (using a Lee bottom-pour melter) letting the stream fall further from the spout to the mold.

How soviet are they?
This Soviet:
The threshold for punishment by the public university, whose president once said students who voted for Donald Trump were motivated by hatred, is so low that “if you say something that might offend someone else, you could get disciplined or thrown out,” Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation, told Jacques.
According to Jacques, such top-down micromanagement of students’ interactions with each other is “creating a climate of suspicion on campus by encouraging students to spy on one another. They never know who they can trust.”

About wonderful Sweden,
In one telling anecdote, Snegirov described a type of conduct I've witnessed repeatedly in Norway: he's on a train from Hamar to Oslo on which all the seats are
taken; although a number of able-bodied males (including young men in
military uniforms) are seated, none of them stands up to offer his seat
to any of the several elderly women (some of them weighed down by
massive backpacks) who are forced to stand. But then a Pakistani man
boards the train, and a red-bearded Norwegian immediately “jumps up ...
and invites the Muslim to sit down.” The Pakistani says no, but Redbeard
insists. After the Pakistani sits, Redbeard stands with his back to the
door, his facial expression making it clear that he feels he has “done a
good deed.”
Snegirev also
visited Grønland, a Muslim-heavy part of Oslo, where he met Yevgeny
Dyakonov, a local from Uzbekistan. Describing Grønland as more dangerous
than even the worst parts of Moscow (I wouldn't know, having been in
Grønland many times but never in Moscow), Dyakohov talked about the
several times he'd been mugged by his own Muslim neighbors and explained
that it's no use to go to the police, who give you the brush-off.
(Verdict, based on my own experience: true.) Dyakonov mentioned a fellow
resident of his apartment building, an actual Somali pirate who lives
on welfare and child benefits and whose rent is paid by the government.
When Dyakonov asked why he doesn't work, the man said: “I'm a born
pirate! I never worked and I will not work!”
And if you speak too openly about it, you run a serious risk of winding up in jail. Because BadThought has been criminalized. And because PC At Any Cost.That country, and Sweden, seem to be the furthest down the track to screwed. And their 'elites', their leadership, seems to think that that's good.
Says it well
If this was orchestrated without the express knowledge of Mr. Obama,
then it reveals just how blatantly he instructed by example the
weaponizing of the entire federal government to carry out his low,
dishonest and unjust ideology. By any means necessary, one might say.
Only instead of being driving by visions of justice, these people were
driven by visions of undying power.
If this conspiracy was carried out at the express direction of Mr. Obama or other high officials in his administration, then they belong in jail. From unmasking of political opponents, to leaking their names to the press, to killing legitimate investigations, to launching politically motivated witch hunts, a racket of this scale could not have been carried out without some major juice and cover at the top levels of the Department of Justice, FBI and the White House.
The rogue henchmen carrying out the dirty work, as always, presented as perfect, decent and most honest little Boy Scouts like former FBI Director James B. Comey.

"Don't worry, this will never be abused or misused, we have standards!"
Yeah. Right.
After confirming Hall’s identity, the deputies announced they had a deposition and were there to take his guns. The news left Hall dumbfounded, but he obeyed the orders of the officers and retrieved his two handguns.
...
... Hall, who had no history of mental illness, handed over four long guns, but when he questioned why, specifically, they were taking his firearms, they couldn’t provide him with an answer. In fact, according to Hall, the officers, who apologized throughout the process, admitted that they had never confiscated anyone’s guns before and had no clue why they were there other than the “mentally defective” stamp on the deposition.
...
As it turned out, the hospital where Hall had undergone a sleep apnea test four years ago had a patient who shared the same name as Hall and also had a similar social security number. That patient was previously treated for a mental health issue, and Hall and Panzone believe that’s where the mix-up occurred.
Well, isn't that just freaking wonderful? And the crowning- and expected- crap:
However, some six months later, although Hall now has his guns, no one in the medical community has taken responsibility for the mistake, nor has Hall received an apology from anyone, save the deputies as they confiscated his guns by order of the deposition. In fact, Caitlin McCann, a spokeswoman for the Mohawk Valley Health System, said they have no knowledge of any such misidentification.
Despite having all this in front of them. "We know NOTHING."
“I’m surprised it sailed through the way it did with a man who has a spotless record,” Panzone said. “To me, presumption of innocence is the foundation of our system, and this provision doesn’t allow for that.”
Make you a bet: quite possible that some of the asshats involved in this think "Who cares if it's the right guy or a real reason, I don't like guns." So screwing someone who's innocent of wrongdoing doesn't bother them so long as 'icky guns taken away.'

'Mass tragedy' 'Horrific incident' It's like they don't want to admit
that all their laws didn't prevent a mass murder. Would really mess with the Preferred Narrative, don't you know.
Next will be the usual asshats demanding everyone who didn't do anything be punished for it.

Probably because the EffingBI was too busy chasing 'right-wing terrorists',
or just horrified at the thought: "He expects us to actually go after a terrorist supporter who's a minority and a tenured academic? That'd cause us problems!"
So the question is not, “Why did it take so long for Kent State to fire Pino?” He was just advancing their morally bankrupt vision of tolerance and diversity. The larger question is, “Why did it take the FBI so long to catch Pino?”
