"We had never logged a month of 60+ mass shootings prior to 2020."
So it was SAFER BEFORE the Socialcrats seized power and funded ANTI-FArt and BLOM?
NOTE: General Methodology | Gun Violence Archive

"The FBI does not have a definition of Mass Shooting." So did the Anti-Gun GVA made one up that fits its agenda?
So, it seems Socialcrats and Violence go hand and hand.
Maybe we should ban Socialcrats, ANTI-FArt & BLOM, instead of a CITIZENS Right to Self Defense?
Because Banning citizen ownership has time and time again PROVEN the only 2 groups that will continue to have firearms are the Government and the Criminal Element. History tells us eventually the telling the difference between the 2 becomes a challenge.
BTW:
In my county the LEO response time is 10 to 15 mins.
They usually arrive and ask us to put the weapon away. Then take control of the problem/suspect.

Large raids have been happening in Brazil for years. Started with large gangs paying up the Amazonto isolated towns, taking over the town, robbing the bank and then anything that moves, then getting out before the responding federals arrive.
[Just The News] The revelations come at a sensitive time for the FBI and Director Christopher Wray, who has insisted widespread problems revealed about the bureau's conduct in the now-discredited Russia collusion case have been fixed even as new revelations of misconduct come to light.
The FBI, already under fire for its handling of FISA warrants and confidential informants, is enduring more scrutiny as the Justice Department admits agents failed to disclose to a court that they had paid — to the tune of six figures — a white supremacist publisher for years to be an investigative source.
The admission came in a series of court filings this month in the case of Kaleb Cole, a Washington state man accused of being a member of the white supremacist group Atomwaffen and participating in an intimidation campaign against Jewish Americans and minority journalists. Cole has pleaded innocent and awaits trial.
Cole's lawyers filed a motion to suppress evidence gathered against their client on the grounds that the FBI had failed to disclose in a search warrant application that a publisher of extremist literature had been paid about $144,000 over 16 years to be an informant, including $82,000 for work in the case against Cole. The confidential informant (CI) also had an earlier felony conviction that wasn't disclosed, court records show.
The filings don't identify the informant by name but describe him as a publisher who "owns and operates a publishing company that distributes white supremacist writings."
"The CI began his long career as a professional informant in exchange for consideration regarding his sentence on a federal conviction for possession of a firearm with an obliterated serial number and an unregistered silencer," Cole's lawyers argued in an Aug. 13 motion.
"The failure to include the information about the CI's incentives is made more egregious by the fact that the warrant application incriminated Mr. Cole based almost solely on the alleged observations of the CI," the lawyers added.
Given the 1000's of court system "sealed" document leaks we have seen over the years in the NEWS? What if the FBI had listed that informants name on court documents?
How were a few over zealous FBI agents able to make a career out of conducting an investigation based on data from a Media/Social Media CI source?
Since it appears a few overzealous FBI agents were able to obtain warrants without listing the information source? Did these agents deliberately mislead the court system and their district supervisors?
Shouldn't we be looking closer at the "Appointed" Federal Judges that issues these warrants also?
Should the public be demanding stricter guidelines with heavy Legal Repercussions against both Judges and anyone circumventing the legal system?
In all honesty
I want to know the results of this 16 year investigation.
What did it accomplish?
Did it save lives and property?

In no particular order, other US Government agencies and activities leading the race to the bottom include the CDC, US Postal Service, BATF, Department of Education, Department of Agriculture, Homeland Security, IRS, DoD, and DNI.

#6 What have you got against the dynastic cluster fcuk that is DOE?
Keep in mind that in the event of govt 'shutdowns' they send their non-essential, their words not mine, workers home. That number is almost universally above 90% of the work force.

/\ Whahahahaha.... Having done a little work at Oakridge and in the Tri-Cities of Richland, Pasco, and Kennewick, I can assure you the absence of DOE was simply an oversight.

Makes you wonder how much of Crime, Inc. is either a partnership with the FBI ala Whitey Bulger or an actual FBI-run operation like the Whitmer kidnapping plot.
"Give us some jobs for our Confidential Informants and a steady stream of expendable dupes for the prosecutors, and we can look the other way on the big stuff"

^ Pretty much already the established case by all we know, or was at one time. E. Tarrio of the PBs is still somewhat in question. We do know he was working with FBI but that relationship might no longer be in place and probably ended in 2018. Now that he's been sentenced, I'm thinking they've gone their separate ways.

Yeah, like when Ed Norton kicks his own ass in his boss' office.
The 5,500-mile Colonial pipeline that supplies almost half of the gasoline on the East Coast shut down Sunday Afternoon. The initial press released stated it was a preemptive measure and only "Temporary".
But is looking like 2 to 3 days min.
However, Six refineries that process 1.92 million barrels per day of oil into gasoline and other petroleum products, either shut or curtailed some production. That includes two Valero Energy (VLO.N) plants in Louisiana that combined process 335,000 barrels per day and Phillips 66's 255,000 bpd Alliance, Louisiana, refinery.

I hope you realize you're the asshole shouting at the top of your lungs "YOU DUMBASSES! YOU CANNIBALIZED YOUR BUSINESS JUST LIKE THE PEOPLE I ELECTED MADE YOU!"

Sounds to me like y'all should be filling y'all's tanks while it's still cheap, to last y'all the two decades or so until we get a sane government and can get production online.

I remember (roughly) a bumpersticker I saw during the 70's oil panic here in the 'Oil Patch': "If Yankees don't like Refineries they can freeze in the dark..."

Colonial Pipeline has shuts down Fuel delivery lines due to Hurricane Ida
The 5,500-mile Colonial pipeline that supplies almost half of the gasoline on the East Coast shut down Sunday Afternoon. The initial press released stated it was a preemptive measure and only "Temporary".
But it is looking like 2 to 3 days min.
Note: As we have been previously told during the 3-5 day May 2021 Ransomware attack. The Colonial Pipeline TX-LO to NC carries about 100 millions gallons a of fuel a day, that means 6 refineries that process 1.92 million barrels per day of oil into gasoline and other petroleum products, either shut or curtailed some production.
Which will effect gas availability and Prices for a few days to a week.
#3
This shutdown only covers the TX to NC stretch. The terminal in NC is full and continues pumping to NJ, the end point. Liquid pipelines have terminals with storage tanks every few hundred miles, to allow for variations in flow rates.
This is mostly about the shut in refineries in LA not producing any flow input.
As to prices, well, any excuse to raise prices.

[Breitbart] Local Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials in China’s southwestern Yunnan province forcibly quarantined over 5,000 residents of Jiegao district this week in an effort to curb the spread of the district’s latest Chinese coronavirus outbreak, the South China Morning Post reported Friday.
“More than 5,000 people from Jiegao district in Yunnan province were asked to pack their belongings on Monday [August 23] and Tuesday [August 24] and board buses taking them to a group quarantine centre in the city of Mangshi, 100km (62 miles) away,” the Post revealed, citing local government sources and residents.
A government source in the Yunnan city of Ruili, located 3.5 miles northwest of Jiegao district, told the Post on August 25 local CCP officials planned for the “evacuated” residents to stay in a group quarantine center for 14 days, during which time provincial health officials would “thoroughly screen everybody” for the Chinese coronavirus.
“He said the total evacuation of all the residents in the district had been completed, adding that the measure was the ‘last resort’ because the district had been locked down since March but had continued to report local infections,” the Post added.
[NYPOST] Democrat Eric Adams ...retired New York City police captain, member of the New York State Senate, first Black Brooklyn borough president, law and order Dem after a brief fling with the Publicans. The New York Times isn't fond of him, suspecting he may not actually be black... isn’t trying to beat Republican Curtis Sliwa in the mayoral general election in November — he’s gunning to blow him out of the water.The retired NYPD captain-turned-pol has raised $2 million over the last 43 days, a war chest for what’s essentially a skirmish with a pre-ordained victor, his supporters told The Post.
Sliwa, by comparison, has garnered $200,000 in contributions.
"He’s growing to crush Curtis Sliwa," Councilman Eric Ulrich, a Queens Republican who supports the moderate Democratic candidate, told The Post.
Adams is seeking to win by a wide enough margin so that he can have a mandate to pursue his law-and-order agenda at a City Hall with a lefty legislature.
The Brooklyn beep raised the seven-figure sum by casting a wide net— hitting up both Democrats and Republicans from Queens to the Hamptons and Martha’s Vineyard—and keeping a brisk schedule of up to five events a day, sources said.
Ken Fisher, a politically connected real estate attorney, hosted a recent fundraiser for Adams at the Sky Bridge Terrace at 2 World Trade Center that brought in $50,000.

[digitaltrends]-The Chinese government is inviting scientists to help build an enormous, 1 kilometer (0.6 miles) long spacecraft that it wants to construct in orbit. The wild concept is to build a giant orbiting craft the size of 10 city blocks from components sent up by rockets one piece at a time.
The concept is outlined in a project document from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (in the attachment titled "Guide for major projects of the Ministry of Mathematical Sciences"), which describes how the organization is looking for proposals for constructing an "ultra-large spacecraft with a size of one kilometer," saying this goal represents "a major strategic aerospace equipment for the future use of space resources, exploration of the mysteries of the universe, and long-term living in orbit." But they don't have proper pronouns!

But Han who pull heavenly wagon
The name China - Chung Quo - means Middle Kingdom, halfway between the gods in Heaven and us big-nosed barbarians down here on Earth. Having a ginormous orbital station would be a nice piece of symbolic propaganda and testament to Han Superiority(tm).
[AP via Market Watch] Federal probe opened earlier this month after series of similar crashes.
ORLANDO, Florida — A Tesla using its partially automated driving system slammed into a Florida Highway Patrol cruiser Saturday on an interstate near downtown Orlando and narrowly missed its driver, who had pulled over to assist a disabled vehicle.
Earlier this month, the U.S. government opened a formal investigation into Tesla’s Autopilot driving system after a series of similar collisions with parked emergency vehicles.
The trooper whose cruiser was hit shortly before 5 a.m. Saturday had activated his emergency lights and was on the way to the disabled vehicle when the Tesla hit the cruiser’s left side and then collided with the other vehicle, highway patrol spokeswoman Lt. Kim Montes told The Orlando Sentinel.
The report said the 27-year-old man in the Tesla and the driver of the disabled vehicle suffered minor injuries and the trooper was unhurt.
Tesla TSLA, +1.53% did not immediately respond to an email sent to its press address.

This is the buzz-ump-teenth time; Tesla EV kills a Gasoline Motivated Vehicle - Must be in the programming - "Your mission Teslev, is to wipe out Gamoves; Now get out there and get'em."
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
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.
That pesky intelligence source problem again. They really should seek professional help.
