It looks like suicide by cop. When none of the police shot back, according to the updated article, Salman shot himself in the head and died.

[NYPOST] An "incredibly intoxicated" Pennsylvania man shot his dog and grilled the animal in a fire pit in his front yard, authorities said. Yep. I'd have to be incredibly intoxicated to do that too.
Nikolay Lukyanchikov, 48, was arrested Friday outside his Northampton Township home, where cops found a burning fire pit and a couch in flames in the front yard, police said.
"Once the fire was under control, patrol observed an unknown animal badly burned and charred on top of a small metal charcoal grill," Northampton Township police said in a statement. "It was later learned the animal was Lukyanchikov’s dog."
Lukyanchikov was "incredibly intoxicated" at the time and unable to speak, according to an affidavit of probable cause for his arrest obtained by the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Lukyanchikov was also dousing $100 bills with lighter fluid and burning them in the metal fire pit — which was topped with a barbecue grate where his pooch was cooked, according to the affidavit.
His Gramma’s recipe called for a tasty green garnish, so he did.

[LIBERTYUNYIELDING] Like the swallows returning to Capistrano every March or the cicadas, which are currently swarming the East Coast after a 17-year absence, noose sightings occur with a distressing regularity. Last year’s sighting was made in June in a park in Oakland, with the offensive reminders of Jim Crow hung menacingly from tree limbs.
Mayor Libby Schaaf immediately launched a hate crime investigation only to discover that the knotted lengths of rope had been placed there by Victor Sengbe, who is himself black and used them as part of his exercise routine.
Now it’s happened again. The College Fix reports:
Earlier this week, a pair of black Penn State University professors reported a "noose" in a tree behind their house.
As reported by the PSU student newspaper Daily Collegian, the professors said the incident was "deeply distressing to them and their family."
The Centre Daily Times notes the profs believed the "noose" was "deliberately placed [on the tree] to harass them."
As with the case in Oakland, police promptly opened a probe that included an inspection of the neighborhood. And, as was the case in Oakland, the "nooses" were not placed by anyone harboring malicious intent toward the professors or anyone else. In fact, they weren’t nooses:
... [A]ccording to the professors’ neighbor who was interviewed by police, the "noose" actually was part of a swing set. The neighbors’ kid told police he merely had thrown the rope "into the woods." ... [T]he rope just "happened" to fall on the tree.
[AMERICANTHINKER] ... In one lifetime (mine), the civil rights movement eliminated all forms of racial discriminatory laws in the U.S.A. There isn’t a single racist federal, state, or local law left. America has succeeded in transforming itself into the freest, most diverse, tolerant, fair, prosperous, popular, and inclusive country on the face of the Earth. Every American should be proud of this great achievement.
One final note. Some Americans often confuse economic and political freedom (non-discrimination) with equal outcome of success in the workplace. If a company is seeking to hire a Ph.D. in physics, to even be considered for the job, an applicant must, of course, have a Ph.D. in physics.
According to the American Institute of Physics analysis published in February 2021, in the two-year period of 2018 and 2019, out of a total of 1,910 Physics Ph.D.s produced by our graduate schools, 42 (2.2%) were Hispanic-Americans, only 9 (0.47%!) were African-Americans, 92 (4.8%) were Asian-Americans, 860 (45%) were white, and 887 (46%) were non-U.S. citizens.
With figures like these, it is clear why the percentages of African-American (12.3% of the population) and Hispanic-Americans (12.3% of the population) Ph.D.s in physics in our workforce are drastically under-represented. If you do not have a Ph.D. in physics, you simply cannot apply for a position that requires it! To make this point unmistakably clear, it is not the fault of American companies that they employ so few blacks and Hispanics Ph.D.s in physics - there simply are not enough of such Ph.D.s to consider hiring. In other words, racism has absolutely nothing to do with these minority employment disparities.

[FOXNEWS] Rescue teams in Mexico City late Monday responded to the collapse of a metro overpass, killing at least 23 and injuring about 70, according to authorities.
The scene was chaotic. People posted images and videos on social media, which appeared to show the train cars inverted and resting on the road below. Authorities said cars were trapped. Dozens of rescue workers were at the scene.
At least one orange-and-yellow subway car was captured hanging from an overpass, which was about 16 feet above the road in southern Mexico City. A television host in Mexico City tweeted a video of rescue personnel using ladders to help passengers get down from a tilted subway car.
The city's Comprehensive Risk Management and Civil Protection Agency, in a preliminary number, said at least 13 people died and about 70 people were maimed.
"What has happened on the metro today is a terrible tragedy," tweeted Mexican foreign minister Marcelo Ebrard.

Direct translation of the article
[REGNUM] Azerbaijani political scientist Fuad Abbasov, who was previously deported from the Russian Federation and also known for his pro-Turkish propaganda, called to prevent the Victory Parade in Stepanakert on May 9 with the participation of Russian peacekeepers and to shell the capital of Nagorno-Karabakh from Grad multiple launch rocket launchers. Abbasov said this during one of his streams. Grad is the Russian made BM-21 rocket artillery rocket launcher system. Used by many nations.
Abbasov was outraged that in Nagorno-Karabakh, Armenian forces, together with Russian peacekeepers, would hold a parade in honor of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
“Yes, two Grads should be put there so that they don’t repeat this again,” Abbasov said.
Abbasov was immediately reminded of the situation in 2008, when Georgia struck with "Grads" on the base of Russian peacekeepers in Tskhinvali (South Ossetia). Then it ended with an operation to enforce peace on the part of Russia - the Georgian troops were defeated, and Abkhazia and South Ossetia gained independence.
[Hot Air] Carnival Cruise Line is ready to get back to work. While the cruise industry waits for final approval to resume travel, the cruise line moved two ships into the Port of Galveston. It’s a not-so-subtle reminder that after a year of waiting, it is time to bring back jobs and economic advantages in port cities like Galveston.
Federal orders halted cruise ships fourteen months ago. The City of Galveston has been hit hard by the economic pain brought by the pandemic. Carnival Cruise Line is the Port of Galveston’s largest cruise operator. The cruise industry brings $1.6 billion in annual economic activity and employs 27,000 people in Texas. On Sunday two of Carnival’s ships — the Carnival Breeze and Carnival Vista — pulled into the port as a way of highlighting the cruise line’s economic impact on the area. A rally was held on Monday.
The CDC has given the ok for cruise lines to get back to business by mid-July. On March 2020 the CDC issued its first No Sail Order and then extended the order indefinitely on September 30. Last month a glimmer of hope for those eager to get back to cruising emerged when the CDC issued a letter stating it would consider rescinding the order by July if 98% of passengers were vaccinated and 95% of crew members. Carnival is reviewing CDC guidance but has not issued its decision on vaccination requirements for guests or for the crew. Crew members were vaccinated for COVID-19 onsite from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston during the Monday rally event.
Carnival is the only cruise line operator with three year-round ships based at the Port of Galveston. They carry about 750,000 passengers each year. The port has two terminals. One terminal is used solely by Carnival, the other is shared by Carnival, Disney Cruise Line, and Royal Caribbean. Carnival launched its first year-round cruise program from Galveston in 2000. The port is expanding, adding a new terminal, thanks to a deal between it and Royal Caribbean Cruises.
[ZERO] What is more concerning is that not only are companies talking about inflation, they are also responding to soaring input costs by hiking prices either in absolute terms or by stealth shrinkflation.
We presented an example of the latter over the weekend when we showed how Costco was masking nearly 15% inflation by selling a paper roll with 140 sheets for the same price it used to sell 160 sheets.

When there is a minimum hourly wage increase naturally prices will increase so the rich can still enjoy the same comfort level.
Want to help the middle class and below..
Eliminate incomes taxes below $65k per worker.
Then make all taxpayer $$$$ collected only spendable in and on the USA citizen.

Russia should announce that they have a missile capable of killing meat eaters and watch the left in the west become Vegans. Or a bomb that kills only men and watch the lefties pile into gender reassignment surgery centers. Or one that will kill whites and make race relations in the west that much worse.
I mean if you are gonna create a pretend psychological weapon you might as well make one that causes hysterical response in your enemies.

I would develop a system which would create double rainbow after double rainbow until the hippies and the druggies slip their surly bonds into unexpressed madness.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.

the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
