Oh, I've seen this kind of crap before, now it involves Flock cameras

Short version: high-risk traffic stops followed by
A Wisconsin woman was pulled over at gunpoint twice in one week after Milwaukee Police Department staff failed to remove a vehicle alert from the Flock license plate camera system.
TWICE it happened.  

Years ago, in the NCIC(National Crime Information Center) files there was a BIG problem that cost the city of Los Angeles millions because- again, short version- they found out that the Police Department, after finding out the description they'd used in the original stolen car/wanted person entry, was not valid, they re-entered the stuff WITH THE SAME INFORMATION.  Which led to the poor bastard being pulled out of his car at gunpoint several times.  When he filed a case, the judge read that, said "You have no excuse after the first mistake" and awarded the guy a big settlement.Now we have effing Flock cameras being used as if they're part of the LE network, and getting people pulled out of their cars at gunpoint.  And, similar to the NCIC problem, if people don't make damn sure information is cleared out when it should be, sooner or later some poor bastard pays the price.

And, as Kim put it,
And if anyone in this party of “desperadoes” had been accidentally shot, it would have resulted in an “Oops, my bad” response from the cops, no doubt.
Followed by "Hey, Qualified Immunity, you can't sue us for it!" I'm sure.

Oh yeah, I've seen this before.

A lot of 'proper' leftist Jews are probably having fits right now,

looking at what their Party is doing, and saying about them.  When they'll get tired of being told they're evil?  That they and Israel should be done away with?

I know there are lots of dumbasses out there who support The Party No Matter What, but you'd think that, eventually, this would get through to them.

Of course, the fact that the EffingBI played Russiagate and lots of idiots still buy it bears against sense getting through...

A double-barrel 1911?

Definitely unique, but personally, no.

Speaking of "NO", this Dem candidate in Michigan who, it seems, has confessed to illegal voting.  Among hating where she lives now.


Found this piece of video on the most recent Trump attack, and- well,

Everyone seems to have been thinking "Ok, this part of the job's over", which let the guy rush past them.  With a shotgun.
Definite failure of mindset, I'd say.

Speaking of failed mindset, are they finally going to get rid of Starmer over there in (fG)Britain?  And if they do, just what Labour asshat do they think will do better?  And will the people start actually throwing all the traitors and backstabbers out?

And is it too late to stop the damage?

Damage?  Like, as the headline puts it, the acting ATF head very literally sleeping with the enemies of the 2nd?

It’s pretty easy to say that the violence is coming overwhelmingly from the Right if you overwhelmingly edit out any political violence from the Left.

Now I need to get some actual stuff done.  Hopefully.

If you don't bother to keep the records complete and accurate,

you can't bitch too much about how you need more laws because 'these laws don't work', among other things.

Ah, the London janissaries,

always ready to serve their masters.

I've got to clear some tabs with news ran across the last few days

Yes, some of this is at X, but you don't need an account to see these. For more details, you can search around for more. 

  Isn't it wonderful what our News Professionals won't talk about?


Unbelievably, @BBCNews has done a THIRD version trying to explain what Intifada means and STILL doesn’t mention the actual violence of the first and second Intifadas.

"But I am IMPORTANT, you commoner!  Stop criticizing me having all this security!"
He walks in surrounded by armed police and security, funded by the public, while ordinary Australians are told we don’t need protection and should just trust the system. He doesn’t live under the same rules he pushes onto everyone else.

If politicians want to disarm the public, then they should be disarmed too. No armed security. No taxpayer-funded protection. Walk the streets like everyone else has to.

That bloke should have walked in and out of the Bondi memorial on his own, the same way any other person would. Instead, he’s wrapped in a security bubble while lecturing the country about safety.

Biggest hypocrisy in the country.


So let me get this right…We are demonised for flying our flag but now the government wants us to go and fight for it?

Keir Starmer, I have news for you.


It's great advice, except for all those places the Elites don't allow it.
I'll add, ran across a mention the other day that most armed Australian cops are not allowed to carry their sidearms when off duty.  Which means the Australian government doesn't even trust their own cops.


With all the actual terrorists out there, you'd think that neither the EffingBI or the Aussie version would have to get mentally unbalanced kids groomed into getting arrested.


Speaking of groomers, and useless cops, more idiocy from (fG)Britain.


Things to do, this is all the time I've got for this right now.

Apparently the Aussie cops have borrowed the 'He was on our radar' crap Updated

from the EffingBI.
NSW Police Commissioner Mal Lanyon, as mentioned above, suggested to ABC that one of the shooters was known to authorities but “the person that we know has very, very little knowledge to the police.” It is not clear if Akram was the man he meant. “So he's not someone that we would have automatically been looking at at this time,” Lanyon said, excusing police.

Isn't that just wonderful?

And the Prime Minister is rightly catching heat for leaving something important out in his "I feel your pain" comments:
What is so shameful is that after the shooting, which specifically targeted a Jewish holiday event, the prime minister of Australia refused to mention the religious motivation of the attack or call it terrorism. He merely said his thoughts were with the victims and that the killing was “shocking and distressing.”
Now, we have to(they think) cut the bastard some slack, it wasn't that long ago he was kissing Pali ass and saying less-than-kind things about Israel and their government to buy caring points with the various 'Let's Have Intifada' types.  So if he actually called it a anti-Jew terror attack, it'll upset all those people he thought he had bought approval from.  And being a ass-kissing  control-freak politician, he can't do that.


On the bad guys having guns, when laws in Australia are what they are: the question occurs that, besides "Well, we knew about him, but he wasn't considered a threat", I have to wonder if he was able to get-keep guns and ammo because some clown in authority didn't want to be called a racist for telling him no?  

Update: Ian has a piece on the reaction times, and let's say the Aussie cops don't look real good

Worth reading

When a society begins to suppress intellectual and spiritual searching and dreaming — by punishing speech, regulating thought, discouraging questions, denying the existence of spiritual reality — it is not only a political decline, but a sign of deep unwellness.

Where populations lose respect for liberty of conscience, inquiry, and discourse, society becomes nasty and brutish. Truth-seeking, spiritual health, and peace are inexorably linked. Across formerly open, stable, safe western societies, censorship and repression have been rising as safety, cohesion, and quality of civic life decline.

We must resist cancel culture and speech codes for the following reasons:
Good reading follows.

Our own Rotherham, combined with massive fraud, and cops and prosecutors either corrupt or too incompetent to do their jobs.
For over a decade at this shingle, we've reported on the industrial-scale gang-rape afflicting almost every town up and down the spine of England, most recently on a special edition of The Mark Steyn Show. The stories are all different, and yet in their most salient aspect all the same: In every town the girls are doubly violated - sodomised by their Pakistani Muslim clan-rapists, and then further assaulted by a whitey-white officialdom that is, as a practical matter, on the same side as the rape-gangs. The politicians, the social workers, the media, the coppers, all of them. In a particularly brazen example, after our friend Samantha Smith made her debut appearance on the Steyn Show, the goons of West Mercia Constabulary came banging on her door the following morning to warn her about going on telly to talk about it. Of course, Samantha, having more courage than the entirety of the English police, immediately went back on telly to shove it up West Mercia's flabby arses:
...
What would you do if you wanted to incentivise the exciting multiculti phenomenon of gang-rape? Well, you'd do exactly what the impeccably "progressive" Hennepin County Attorney, Mary Moriarty (pictured at top right), did. You'd do a "plea deal" with Mr Mohamed:

He was sentenced to three years in prison for the attack on the 15-year-old, but the sentence was stayed for five years, meaning he served no time in prison...

He was sentenced to 14 months in prison for the 2024 sexual assault, but that sentence was also stayed, meaning he avoided prison.
...
How is it that a multiple gang-rapist walks free? As those of us who have engaged in the thankless task of trying to get American "prosecutors" to put career criminals behind bars well know, it all starts very butch - he's facing forty-seven felony charges each carrying a minimum sentence of twenty-nine years! - and then gets plea-dealed down to a couple of misdemeanours and an unpaid parking ticket. The County Attorney isn't talking, but her spokesperson - the usual pronoun-laden pajama boy - is defending the deal:

"Due to circumstances that cause difficulty in many criminal sexual conduct cases, these charges were the available and appropriate ones to secure a felony conviction," spokesperson Daniel Borgertpoepping told Fox 9.

Ooh, a "felony conviction"!!! That sounds scary!!!!!
A felony conviction should be scary.  But when asshats like this are running things, it means nothing.

And the Governor in charge of this, and these people, was picked for the Democrat Vice-President candidate.  God, what we dodged in this election.

Would you like further proof of what arrogant, idiotic, useless twats British cops are?

An IT consultant was arrested by police in Britain after he posted a picture online of himself posing with a gun in the US.

Jon Richelieu-Booth said he was shocked by the “Orwellian” decision by West Yorkshire Police (WYP) to prosecute him over the social media post.
Oh yes, they're that stupid, and- assuming they're telling the truth- someone saw the pictures and crapped themselves and called the cops in the first place.

Ah, Britain, your ancestors who were peasants had more balls and brains than a lot of you do now.

The latest example of "Keep your mouth shut and don't show this to people" from (fG)Britain

Shabana Mahmood, an Islamist politician who wanted to outlaw any discussion of Islamic violence as ‘Islamophobia’, was appointed to head security by the Starmer regime, has warned “I urge people to avoid comment and speculation at this early stage.”

There’s no need to urge the public to “avoid comment and speculation” when the violence comes from the right-wing or a mentally ill man.

Once the authorities urge us to “avoid comment and speculation”, we know what they don’t want us talking about.

Mahmood’s warning isn’t just an empty threat. Those living in the UK who ‘commented’ or ‘speculated’ in the past had the police show up at their door and have been arrested.

Wonderful, isn't it? More information on this "Oh no, it's not terrorism!" attack here.  And another attack shortly after the one noted above, also involving someone yelling 'Aloha Snackbar!', which translates to "We don't know his motive."

That Scottish girl who pulled the knife and hatchet to run the bad guys off?

They dropped the charges on her- apparently even their cops and prosecutors catch enough shit and they get the point- and now we have this, borrowed from Lawdog:
The British legacy media — and the British Upper Class bellends toffs — scoffed at her accounting of events, because — you know — that sort of thing just doesn’t happen2 in Old Blighty.

In an event that surprises abso-bloody-lutely no-one, it is (quietly) being reported that a Romanian grooming gang in Dundee, Scotland has been sentenced for “raping and sexually abusing at least 10 women”3 across the city.

This is Ian’s shocked face.

We are Officially Advised By The Authorities that there is absolutely no connection between the two incidents, and how dare you. Just because a 14 year-old girl produced weapons after she and her 12 year-old sister were exposed to grooming gang behaviour by Eastern Europeans, followed by guilty verdicts against multiple Eastern European4 grooming gang members, doesn’t mean that she should have defended herself and her sister!5

Horse puckey. Dundee isn’t that big.
As to whether they're Religion of Peace adherents, no mention, and I'd be shocked amazingly if the Brit cops or press mentioned it if they are.

Summation borrowed because he says it so well:
I do have to say: I appreciate the fact that — for once — the Brit government decided to round up a grooming gang, instead of covering up for it, arresting witnesses, ignoring victims, and jailing outraged family members7 — but that little girl should never have been hemmed up by the British legal system.

Just because y’all got half of one right, doesn’t mean I won’t continue to call: “Shame on Great Britain. Shame on you all.”

Bad enough for a cop to play "I don't care if you're legal,

I'm, arresting you", worse for the idiot prosecutors to file charges.

And worse yet:
Williams has not received his gun back from CPD. And despite a court order from a judge, neither has Washington.
I'm pretty sure a judge has some way of making his displeasure known, and he should use it.

Go look at the Village Hemmorhoid's 'Political Social Media Posts',

 it includes stuff from the Chicago PD that ought to be evidence in the trial of the people who gave the orders.  Jeez, did they not think about this stuff being available, or were the politicians- in and out of uniform- too stupid to consider it?

The man says it: "Do you want federal troops in Chicago?"

Because this will damn well do it.
BREAKING: DHS announces federal agents in Broadview, IL were rammed & boxed in by 10 cars, including a woman armed w/ a semi-automatic gun who had posted online threats to “fuck up” ICE & was flagged in a CBP intel bulletin. DHS says feds fired on her defensively.

 
DHS: “Pritzker’s Chicago Police Department is leaving the shooting scene and refuses to assist us in securing the area. There is a crowd growing and we are deploying special operations to control a growing crowd.”

More here.
And Instapundit has this:
Statute: The Insurrection Act. “Whenever the President considers that unlawful obstructions, combinations, or assemblages, or rebellion against the authority of the United States, make it impracticable to enforce the laws of the United States in any State by the ordinary course of judicial proceedings, he may call into Federal service such of the militia of any State, and use such of the armed forces, as he considers necessary to enforce those laws or to suppress the rebellion.”

Oh, this will get sporty.  And the asshole in charge of Chicago PD is going to be answering some very pointed questions.  So are the Mayor and Governor.

Once again: Trust the EffingBI?

Why?
Few months ago:
...Just last December, the Department of Justice's own watchdog proudly announced there was "no evidence" of undercover FBI employees in the protest crowds. The Inspector General's report was crystal clear: no undercover agents at the Capitol on January 6. Period. End of story. ...

Now,
The FBI secretly deployed more than 250 plainclothes agents to the U.S. Capitol during the Jan. 6, 2021 riot, an operation so disorganized it unleashed searing frustrations among many of the FBI's rank-and-file that the bureau had lost its core competencies to "wokeness" and allowed its employees to become “pawns in a political war,” according to an after-action report kept from the public for more than four years.
Oh, of COURSE there's lots of "We shouldn't have been doing this, but we had orders!"  Maybe some of the bastards actually mean it.

But not one of the bastards deserves any trust from us.

Ran across these two articles at Kim's place, first a .gov that works hard to tear the social fabric

says it needs to work hard to restore it.  But you can guarantee that, if anything, they'll probably try to double-down on the tearing(mass migration, censorship, two-tier 'justice' system).
Downing Street also said that Deputy PM Angela Rayner, whom Starmer has tasked to focus on social cohesion, admitted that in conjunction with other economic factors, “immigration and the impacts on local communities and public services” have had a “profound impact on society”.

“She said it was incumbent on the government to acknowledge the real concerns people have and to deliver improvements to people’s lives in their communities,” the government readout stated. This acknowledgement was hedged by the typically pro-mass migration Labour Party government, which maintained that Britain remains a “successful multi-ethnic, multi-faith country.”
Translation: "We have to pretend to care what those bigoted peasants think, maybe we can fool them."

In return he was sent a link to this, which seems to boil down to "Maybe helping the illegal migrants and others and showing the cops don't care about the locals wasn't the best plan, and we're having real problems."
“This is about whether the country still values the men and women who step forward when everything else breaks down. Right now, many of them feel utterly abandoned,” she said.
Let's see, you've got who knows how many cops busy policing social media and arresting people for daring to speak unapproved things, they help the illegals & friends and censor anyone who, say, carries a British flag or otherwise refuses to kneel...  exactly what are they supposed to consider 'stepping forward when everything else breaks down'?  When they're helping things break down?  And you're giving the damned orders?

Barring a miracle, Britain is screwed, and in a few years there'll be a star & crescent flag flying over Parliament and women who don't dress 'properly' will be grabbed by the morals police.

Side matter: I doubt it would be safe for me to take that vacation to the British Islands, as I'm probably one of many on the list of 'Arrest them for hate speech if they ever set foot here' people.

Well, the Brit government knows who they consider the enemy, and are making sure

the cops- excuse me, the janissaries- know it too.

And it's, at this point, exactly who you'd think.

 “The fact one of the t-shirts has a union flag on it is entirely coincidental.”
Oh yeah.  Very convincing.

This girl is brave, in two ways; first to put her face in public for the slavers to see,

second because the Brit government will really want to shut her up.  And the janissaries pretending to be peace officers will happily take orders to make it happen.


Which brings us to this:
THIS Labour government has many delusions, but perhaps most astonishing is that it seems to believe we still live in the pre-internet era. That’s the only possible explanation for Jess Phillips, Minister for Safeguarding and Violence Against Women and Girls, sneaking into the Chamber on Tuesday afternoon, hours before the Commons broke for Easter Recess, in the hope of brushing the betrayal of grooming gang survivors under the carpet.

By all accounts, her fellow Parliamentarians were given just 45 minutes’ notice of the statement that Phillips read out. Phillips herself seemed almost bored by what she was reading, racing through it at breakneck speed with the attitude of a surly teenager. But the words are there in Hansard, available to all online. They read: ‘We will set out the process through which local authorities can access the £5million national fund to support locally-led work on grooming gangs.’

In other words, the five inquiries for which the £5million had been earmarked have been scrapped. Instead, any local authority will be able to apply for funding for ‘more bespoke work’ – victims’ panels, audits of the handling of historical cases, and suchlike. With more than 50 towns implicated in the atrocity, that £5million won’t stretch very far.
When you consider the number of council members and cops and politicians* who've been involved in this, both passively and actively, both trying to cover this all up  and some actually taking part... the facts actually get out, an awful lot of the British people would, I think, say "Now or never" and start acting.  And even nothing more than demonstrations would probably blow the place apart**.

Which is exactly what it appears is needed.


*testimony and records of actions, which included cops raping the girls, whether as payoff or because they were part of it; want to take bets on how many politicians were bought off the same way?
This also includes the chickenshits in both parties who never had the balls to say or do anything about it, and now are terrified they'll be held to account.

**The minute a lot of people go out waving flags and calling for justice, the janissaries will be sent out to stop them, no matter what they have to do.  Which at some point becomes the badge as a mark for the enemy.  Throw in a bunch of the muslims who've been allowed to decide they run the place starting to beat and kill people in these crowds, with the cops protecting them while they do it, well, a lot of people just might decide their ancestors didn't fight and bleed and die to let this happen.  

And over here, the EffingBI... can cleaning out be enough,

or just flat get rid of the place?
New chat logs released by the House Judiciary Committee this week show the extraordinary lengths the FBI went to behind the scenes to shut down any discussion of Hunter Biden’s laptop in October 2020 after the New York Post broke the story.

The conversations, withheld by the FBI under Director Chris Wray, show that senior leadership issued an internal “gag order” on the laptop.

The FBI had been in possession of the abandoned MacBook Pro for 10 months by that stage, after computer repair shop owner John Paul Mac Isaac handed it over and warned of the potential crimes and national security concerns he had found.
We've been told that with Patel in charge, the Good Agents are actually doing their jobs again... We'll see.  It's going to take a lot for that place to start regaining some trust.

Ah, Britain, you elites and most of their minions suck,

and a good many of both belong in jail.

This piece is from an actual cop who tried to do things, and found the bastards just wanted her to shut up and go away.  And there was enough class snobbery mixed in with the cowardice to make you wonder if there's no tar left in those islands.
