Partially rewritten and condensed for fair use purposes.
[COLLIVE] A shooting incident in Denver, which killed a young Jewish man on Tuesday night, was originally reported as a drive-by shooting.
Local authorities said that that this was a "crime spree" that ended with the senseless murder of Shmuli Silverberg, 19.
But, according to highly-credible sources, as well as multiple social media reports surfacing online, this is not what happened.
The armed suspects entered the Yeshiva building. They fired at a school employee, who was able to get out of the way, and was unharmed.
The original Facebook posting said it was a deliberate act by the suspects, but it later transpired that the shooting was part of a number of shootings spread out over a number of city blocks, starting in Wakandan country.
No need. The fella who first objected to the incident being classified as an act of antisemitic terrorism, said he knew the people at the yeshiva well; he had conducted training for concealed carry permits, and had given talks on the subject.
It just happened to be that young man's unlucky day.

LeRoy says there's something you should know
Not everybody has a place to go
And home is just a place to hang your head
And dream of things to do in Denver when you're dead

I think it’s adorable, Skidmark. The thing about poetry is that in order to fit the rhyme and rhythm schemes, the poet must carefully ponder word choices. In the process, thoughts tend to become more crystalized than when just writing prose. Not always good or useful thoughts, to be sure, but it’s a slower process — more like sculpture than painting or drawing in the visual arts.

Have noticed that a lot of social and MS Media are really pushing the loony tune Trump'er angle or making it seem like all Trump Supporters are emotional loony's.
eg. YOUTUBE "The Legend of Karen Episode #" every episode it makes sure to cast several Karens and Loony-tune Trump'ers. Never a biden supporter.

Monica Brown, the driver's biological aunt and adoptive mom, said she's troubled by the video and believes her loved one didn't need to be shot.
"I feel like this was excessive force," she told NBC News on Thursday. "He couldn't go anywhere. They surrounded him."

^ "Devonte Dawayne Brown, meet Mr. Sherlock Holmes!" It's a demographic long shot, but just for kicks put me down for 'should've shot our own damn suspect." Something about the reserved tone...
Refused to exit the vehicle or comply with lawful orders.
Possible drugs, weapon and etc.. in the car.
Decided to engage in Felony fleeing, which required pursuit thru public streets with pedestrians. Causing great harm and endangerment to the general public.
Avoid more attempts to stop.
Was finally hemmed in / boxed in. Repeatedly order out of the car and refused.
Started RAMMING police cars and driving towards officers attempting to remove him. Using a Vehicle as a deadly weapon.
Still refusing to surrender, attacking police and police cars with his vehicle in attempts to continue Fleeing. The suspect with pistol in the car was shot.
Devonte Dwayne Brown did the pretty much the same thing before. "Police had previously encountered Brown on June 3, when they charged him with a count of obstruction in connection with another attempted traffic stop..."
OUTSTANDING WARRANT
Maybe why he was fleeing?
Newton Co. 07/12/2017 Child Support Arrest Order # 91249
PREVIOUS ARRESTS
Doing a internet check uncovered multiple criminal and traffic records matching the name "Devonte Dwayne Brown" that also show related family as "Monica Brown". So he has a history of other interactions with the GA. Police officers.
[NavyTimes] The 78th secretary of the Navy, Carlos Del Toro, who as sworn in Aug. 9, released a message to the fleet laying out the “four Cs” that the former officer sees as vital challenges to the department: China, culture, climate and COVID. and cRacism
In the Aug. 10 message, Del Toro echoed other military leaders in warning of China’s ascendance and its goal of challenging U.S. military superiority.
“We will not let this happen,” he wrote. “We will deter China’s aggression, protect our national security and preserve the peace.”
When it comes to culture, Del Toro wrote that “every Sailor and Marine of all races, genders, religions and ethnicities must treat one another with dignity and respect,” and that such behavior ensures combat readiness.
He called climate change an issue that “exacerbates every challenge we face, from naval installations to frequent deployments.
On the COVID-19 front, Del Toro called for vaccinating the force “with expedience.”
“If we are not vaccinated, we are neither deployable nor combat ready,” he wrote. “Immediately, the Navy and Marine Corps will make every effort to vaccinate and care for our force and defeat the scourge Covid has inflicted on our troops.”
Del Toro’s stance on vaccinations follows a Pentagon announcement this month that vaccines will soon become mandatory for all servicemembers.

Well, in terms of reality and this administration, two outta four isn't bad. Trouble is that in practice China will go straight to the back of the line and stay there.

I was never in the Navy, but I did live in dormitories for 8 years (private high school, college) dignity and respect were not on the table. I have trouble imagining the Navy as being any better in that regard.

What he addressing the theatric version of The Navy, like a touring Broadway show? Or was this the fighting Navy, the military version?
A tower cum red and white dome
Loomed over the old Soldiers' Home
Till it got in the way
And was toppled one day,
But the bubbes all missed it. Well, some.

True story, btw: Jewish old ladies' home practically in the shadow of the rusty old thing (which was visible from, and loved by, pretty much everything in Boston that had a soul).
[YouTube] Meet the man who inspired the character of Big Brother in George Orwell’s “1984”; the man who Churchill’s family would have liked history to bury; the man so secretive, he ordered to burn all his official records upon his death. What was he hiding? This is a journey through the unforgettable, unbelievable and breath-taking life of Brendan Bracken.
Bracker was one of Churchill’s closest advisors and friends, a relationship that particularly bothered Churchill’s wife Clementine. However, Bracken was devoted to Churchill and was instrumental in the most pivotal point of WWII – Churchill’s appointment as Prime Minister. Bracken was newspaper tycoon, Member of Parliament, Wartime minister, Peer of the realm, First Lord of the Admiralty, the first spin doctor, yet a compulsive liar, unmarried and secretive – and a “complete fantasist”.
This film tells the extraordinary story of a truly self-made man who helped to shaped some of the most important events of the 20th century.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Tropical Storm Henri is expected to become a HURRICANE with wind speeds of 85mph before it hits New England and Canada next week with National Weather Service warning those in its path to 'monitor it'. for those wondering, Obama's estate is protected pretty well from storms that travel east of it, even though it is only a few feet above sea level. There is a barrier island protecting the inlet that borders the estate and the likely path of the storm is east of Martha's Vineyard so his estate would feel the weaker part of the storm. Of course things could change.
Lots of storms all of a sudden. Is this normal or unusual, and if unusual are they extremely unusual or just a bit out of the ordinary?

☺ House Speaker Pelosi blames Trump'ers
for Henri threatening Massachusetts.
She went on to call for Democrats to investigate the application of Pronouns in Naming and the lack of Transgenderism.
Stating just because the storm is still deciding what it wants to be. It should not be forced to be labeled Herricane, Him-acane, Tropical Storm or a North Easterly. Let it decide. ☺

Henri curved a bit to the left (west) and currently a 2-5' surge is forecast for Martha's Vineyard as well as other parts of the NY, RI and MA coast. This assumes the storm will reach minimal hurricane intensity but come ashore as a Tropical Storm.
this would be enough to do some physical damage but not catastrophic by any means
fwiw, Hurricane Bob in 1991, which came ashore near Newport RI with about 100mph winds, produced a general 5-8' surge but in places it exceeded 12'. Property damage was well over $1B, several lives were lost and it caused extensive beach erosion,

Can we ignore anything less than seriously major storms, please? I don’t know enough to judge when articles on the subject are submitted, so please choose your articles carefully — we had 89 articles published today, which is a bit much of the unimportant stuff when there is a major situation using up bandwidth. We spend more time on the fun stuff when the world is quieter.
My heartfelt thanks to you all for making Rantburg the wonderful place that it is.

Tropical Storm HENRI near hurricane strength to become the first 21st Century for NE; (1st) NE hurricane in 30 Years! Will effect Northern New Jersey, New York City and All New England States
Important enough ?
The Northeast megalopolis is the most populous megalopolis located entirely in the United States, with over 50 million residents, as well as the most urbanized megalopolis in the United States and the megalopolis with the world's largest economic output.
I have no idea, my dear. Is it that much worse than the usual? Lord Garth and Raj don’t seem to think it’s terrifying, though Lord Garth posted the article, whereas you are concerned. I depend on Rantburgers to put in perspective for me the many, many things you know that I don’t.

On July 8th 2021, as a month’s worth of rain deluged the city inside of two hours, the vulnerability of the subway went on full display in videos of commuters wading waist-deep into pool-like stations.
That was just a severe weather front lasting 2 hours - Henri is going to be a full time job of survival - the infrastructure - water systems, electrical lines & substations, communication hubs, cell towers have not been challenged by a hurricane 🌀 in 3 Decades.
So yea, I sent in a link for your consideration for tomorrows RB Post - If this doesn't meet the threshold - don't post - your the moderator/editor-

Thank you for explaining, Glereper Gleamble3946. I noticed your article in the hopper — it’ll be published along with the rest in half an hour. I’ve added a link to this discussion so all our readers will have this perspective.

[REGNUM] Last week, 41 aircraft of foreign countries (29 reconnaissance aircraft and 12 UAVs) conducted aerial reconnaissance along the borders of the Russian Federation and were tracked by Russian radar.
No violations of Russian airspace were allowed. Infographics with data from the RF Ministry of Defense were published on August 20 by the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper.
In total, the pilots of the Russian Aerospace Forces performed 224 flight shifts at 68 airfields as part of combat training. Military transport aircraft made more than 900 flights.
According to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the armed forces, within the framework of combat training, carried out about 13,000 practical measures at 135 training grounds. About two thousand driving lessons were completed, of which 50% were at night. The paratroopers performed about seven thousand parachute jumps.
More than 100 submarines, surface ships and support vessels guarded the maritime borders last week.
As part of the state defense order, BMP-2 infantry fighting vehicles and KamAZ-4350 vehicles were repaired and delivered to the troops.
As reported by IA REGNUM , 33 foreign reconnaissance aircraft approached the borders of Russia last week.

My first guess would be "because they are young people".
And because they are anti-Israel, so anything Israeli authorities suggest they’ll be against as a matter of principle. And if, in the process, they can do something touted as harming Israelis, that’s frosting on the cake.
Very separately, I think it was Procopius2k I have to thank for stepping in yesterday when the discussion started to get heated. It was inestimably comforting to be referenced when I was off dealing with local things, and seeing with what grace y’all responded. I am enriched by knowing you.

Six children hospitalized with post-coronavirus inflammation eight-year-old boy had coronavirus a month ago, and was asymptomatic, and this week he was hospitalized. Because of the scope of the infections, there is concern that this trend will continue to worsen."
"We're talking about a relatively high number of cases, and that's connected to the fact that there is a general rise in infections, and because the children aren't vaccinated," said Dr. Galia Barkai, who heads Sheba Medical Center's Pediatric Infectious Diseases Unit.
