HERO TEEN KILLS HOME INVADERS: Sheriff Gonzalez said three masked men tried to force their way into a home, occupied by an adult woman and three minors, when one 17-year-old opened fire on the assailants. Two of the men reportedly were pronounced dead at the scene, and the third escaped in a dark-colored 4-door sedan.
“LATE EARLY” BALLOTS BLAMED FOR AZ ELECTION RESULT DELAY: The early ballots that came in on Election Day itself are known in some places as “late earlies,” the counting of which has been known to hold up tabulation. “They have to be signature checked, scanned first, then processed by a bipartisan board before they can be counted,” said former Maricopa County Recorder Helen Purcell.

“Two Texas men were fatally shot by a teenager armed with a shotgun during an attempted home invasion, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez.”
Good thing it was in Texas.
Absolutely. If it were in NJ the kid and the mom would be facing weapons and child endangerment charges.
As a NJ resident, I can tell you they akshually wouldn’t.
Probably not. A woman killed a crazy ex-boyfriend who broke down her door in my old town. State cops called it a good shoot and no charges.
Your results may vary if closer to NYC.
Sorry. I was speaking off-the-cuff. I was looking for a hellish nightmare gun laws state and NJ popped into mind because of your recent article.
Oh yeah, it makes intuitive sense. But NJ is pretty standard when it comes to use of force and deadly force in your home.
Now if the cops or DA wanted to be assholes, they could toss the shooter in jail if they found out they used a weapon with a mag greater than 10 rounds or fired hollow points.
HPs are legal in your home, IIRC.
And this satisfactory result was provided by a shotgun.
Jus’ sayin’.
+1 Mossberg
With some training, he might have gotten the trifecta.
Look, you already have two down. While tempting to go for the rare triple, you want to be sure you have marked where the first two fell and go verify that they are actually dead. Nothing so bad as having a cripple get away because you were being greedy.
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. For defending a static position, like your home? A shotgun is a damn good choice.
“One and done.”
President Mushbrains nods in agreement.
Fuck Sotomayor and fuck that religious exemption bullshit.
Sotomayor denied their request without comment and did not consult her colleagues in her decision; she is not required to.
She’s basically God.
She’s the Circuit Justice for the Second Circuit. That means she hears the emergency petitions from that circuit.
Right, and I am guessing each one of them opts not to give a reason for the decisions they make. I just don’t like seeing it.
Ugh why do we have to have her. Can we trade her for a better judge?
I’m told she is wise.
Skittles, M & Ms, anything of greater value
She’s actually pretty good on criminal defendant rights.
So what you’re saying is at least one of them is worse than her. Yay!
““They have to be signature checked, scanned first, then processed by a bipartisan board before they can be counted,” said former Maricopa County Recorder Helen Purcell.”
But back when votes were counted by retirees with pencils they got it done by election night.
True, that. It’s amazing how as technology improves the counts take longer. Of course there were fewer absentee/mail-in/etc ballots back then, too.
There’s a bunch of races in CA where it looks like they stopped counting/reporting. (CNN update page)
Yeah — my county results haven’t moved since late at night on the 8th — but the Congressional race between Adam Gray (douche) and Duarte (probable turd sandwich) is reported with different percentages and is supposedly contested on national news reports.
So I’m really wondering just what the hell is going on at the county level — if they’re sitting on a bunch of mailed in ballots, fine… but update the totals sometimes already. Since those numbers are only 23.6% (which I think is pretty low turnout even for a midterms around here), there’s a lot of possible shenanigans.
I’d like to see how they validate signatures. I don’t have much faith that anyone can validate thousands of signatures accurately.
They don’t validate my signature when I sign in to vote in person. All I have to do is sign.
Back when they had paper registries, they did actually check your signature against your driver’s license. Now they have mini computers and you have to sign with a stylus on the screen. There is zero point in trying to validate that signature. They just scan the barcode on the back of my driver’s license and hand me a ballot.
Yes, that is how it happened this year for me too.
Ditto for Colorado.
What I found weird is there is no set precinct location. Once they scanned, they went to the bin and pulled out the appropriate ballot.
Ha! You live in a highly modernized precinct – mine is still a paper book.
They don’t check at mine either, but I think being in-person at least eliminates the less brazen cheaters.
Also, overly strict signature validation could be a problem too. My signature has evolved over the years, and it always depends on the type of paper and pen used, what the underlying surface is, too much masturbation, etc. I take little comfort in the idea is that a signature is enough to validate.
No signatures here, no IDs. The only security measure taken on Tuesday was asking me for my full name after I had given them my address. That makes the process so much more serious. In September when I voted in the primary I was asked if I was *my first name*, I replied yep and got a ballot.
Isn’t she one of those with the Innsmouth look? Don’t the folk if Innsmouth always want more?
That’s Chicago Mayor Lori Lighfoot. “Auntie Maxine” as the left likes to call her is the annoying scrawny old church lady who bangs on your door Sunday morning when you have the worst hangover of your life.
I seem to recall pictures of Maxine where she had a distinctly frog-like visage distinct from the walleyed fishy aspect of Mayor Lightfoot.
I don’t know for certain, but based on her appearance, I think she gets her wigs from thrift stores.
So apt.
Wonder if Maxine got one of this guy’s checks?
Wot?
I’d have expected that link from OMWC.
Nah — he’d be looking for the story where they were pushing sugar glass and rock candies out of the van.
I think that’s not kosher. Which is nice.
Really? You’d think some of those talmudians would know that chickens don’t give milk.
I defer to our resident (((Chosen People))) for these nuances.
I have no issue with this OTHER THAN PUTTING CHEESE ON YOUR FRIED CHICKEN
Definitely not kosher.
What about putting pineapple on fried chicken?
Kosher
What if it’s in a sandwich?
Some people thought it was weird I put honey on fried chicken.
By sandwich, I mean an actual sandwich, not a “fried chicken sandwich”.
These always make me think it’s a disgruntled soon-to-be-former employee or contractor who’s blowing up the company’s rep on the way out the door. And their supervisor is too dumb to catch it, if they’re even looking.
At least it’s not Kentucky Fried Pork.

“The city never justified why an unvaccinated stripper can spend hours in close proximity to customers in an indoor venue, while a city sanitation worker cannot pick up refuse, outside, with virtually no person-to-person contact absent a vaccination that violates his religious convictions,” the brief said.
What the fuck does religion have to do with it? Is this America, or isn’t it?
We couldn’t keep it.
But democracy is safe, right?
Yeah, that’s one point that bugged me through the whole vax mandate saga last year. From my perspective, the first amendment “freedom of religion” really should be taken as how they wrote “freedom of conscience” or “freedom of thought”. You don’t need to have a priest’s permission or be in an organized group to have a fundamental disagreement with the government, and overriding a citizen’s free will should have a high bar (involving NAP in a perfect world, probably… I’m no jurist).
Right up there with the “you aren’t a journalist if you aren’t credentialed!” argument they try to make to shut down bloggers, police auditors, etc. Twits.
“Maxine Waters, chair of the United States House of Representatives Financial Services Committee”
Yes, this is very stable genius we want in charge of money.
The simple fact that she is chair of the committee is an affront to any semblance of ethics in DC.
https://www.bostonherald.com/2010/08/10/ethics-scandals-a-family-affair-for-maxine-waters/
100%.
I would have gone with “not in jail” rather than “chair of the committee”.
“LATE EARLY” BALLOTS
What a fascinating term.
That judge disallowing the polls to stay open after there were issues likely killed her chances. Not illicit fuckery but fuckery nevertheless.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t it the tabulators that were down? Couldn’t people still submit their ballots to have them tabulated later? Or are you worried that those votes will be discarded altogether?
I’m not sure wheter in-person voting is via touchscreen, or physical scanned ballot. But as I’ve said before, there is no reason why they shouldn’t have an emergency plan for each precinct — pre-printed paper ballots that can be filled out by flashlight and counted later. That should be a universal precaution.
Festina lente.

Sotomayor is an overweight alcoholic not in the greatest of health kinda old leftist. Of course she wasn’t going to issue a stay.

“He believes our democracy is still under threat”
Well, that’s true.
I’m still awaiting the day when someone tells these morons it’s a Republic.
That would immediately get them flagged by the FBI.
Except not really, anymore.
KFC messed up, but it sounds like an honest mistake so you apologize, move on, and screw anyone that wants to blow it up further.
Nevermind. Live by the DEI sword, die by the DEI sword. They deserve whatever they get.

From the Cynics article…
“According to an Associated Press analysis, 44% of voters “say the future of democracy was their primary consideration.” This is almost as many as those listing inflation as their top issue.”
Democratic consultants have the easiest jobs in the world. “Tell them it’s either vote for you or the nation will collapse due to an uprising of painted dudes in Order of the Water Buffalo hats.”
And it doesn’t matter if it’s true because 95% of the media will propagandize for you.
They’re laughing themselves all the way to the bank, that’s for sure. “Can you believe they fell for that shit, Ralph?” “No way, Herb.”
The blue ballot dump bump.
In the Georgia Senate race, a large batch of ballots for Georgia Democrat Senator Warnock was dropped that placed him in the lead, and then the votes after that point in time were near all the same proportion of Warnock to Walker votes. This drop gave Senator Warnock the lead and may have prevented GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker from winning the race outright.
Not at all suspicious. This of course is how Warnock will “win” the runoff.
Maricopa also had an “historic” number of ballots dropped off on Election Day. I think they were referring to junk mail ballots dropped off at polling places. Nothing suspicious there.

As projected by multiple news organizations and analysts Wednesday morning, James is expected to keep his lead and become Michigan’s 10th U.S. House district representative with 48.8% of the vote being reported. His Democratic opponent, retired judge Carl Marlinga, trailed with 48.3% of the vote.

In the filing Thursday, U.S. Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar, acting as the lawyer for Treasury and the IRS, wrote that the federal appeals court “correctly held” that the request for the tax records by the committee’s chairman provided a “legitimate legislative purpose.”
Purely for educational purposes. No salacious intent. And they definitely won’t be hand delivering copies to WaPo and the NYT.
Uh, why does the IRS get a say in this?
And why are they for it….
They are obliged by law to provide to the Ways and Means chair any tax information requested.
What I am getting at is why stick your nose in it? All thier lawyer should say is we will follow U.S.C blah blah unless otherwise order by the courts. Not to actively urge the case in one way or the other
This isn’t even an argument save for Trump – who does not want his real income disclosed, lest it undermine his mirage of wealth.

It’s not even Thanksgiving…
KFC has apologised after sending a promotional message to customers in Germany, urging them to commemorate Kristallnacht with cheesy chicken.
Come on. Anything that fucking retarded must be intentional.
Considering that you can’t say anything about the Nazis without being thought as one, it’s possible that the people in charge of KFC’s promotions simply didn’t know what it was about. To them this promotion meant as much as a President’s day sale. Just a thought.
Exactly. The explanation in the article is perfectly plausible. It was an automated message tied into a national observances calendar. Of all the things to get outraged about, this is one of the dumber ones. Bold statement, I know.
That only works if Kristallnacht is an observed holiday.
Narrator: It is not a “holiday” in Germany.
It is.
And they eat some fried chicken.
With cheese if they’re smart!
Went by completely unremarked when I lived there. Times change, I guess.
Almost sounded like in memoriam of, not celebration of. But everyone is so far up their own asses nowadays
Then a firing for incompetence is certainly in order. I’m very careful to look up unfamiliar holidays before I comment on them to an international client. Anyone in business development, which definitely includes Marketing, should be taking this very basic first step.
If you didn’t know any better, you’d think that Krisallnacht sounds like a pretty swanky event.

Once upon a time, Kay Jewelers did a TV spot with a couple and the girl was deaf. If they had made her say the “every kiss begins with Kay” tagline in her best Marlee Matlin-voice I would’ve ran right out and spent at least $5k on jewelry. But alas, they weren’t clever enough.

Project Veritas’ latest
Project Veritas released a new video today exposing an educator working at a prestigious Connecticut private school, Iman Rasti, for sexually-explicit statements he made about his current high school students.
Rasti, who oversees Greens Farms Academy’s Writing Center, teaches Middle School English, and is the Seventh Grade Dean, was recorded fantasizing about young female pupils. He even admits that his thoughts could get him in trouble at work.
“That possibly means me losing my job, my reputation — it’s way too risky. Like, one thing they [students] do these days, they sit down in front of me, they purposefully sit down somewhere in the class that is literally directly in front of me. They spread their legs wide open and that is just brutal. Brutal,” Rasti said.
Not even highschool bro? gross.
“NYC employees filed an emergency application to Sotomayor requesting that SCOTUS temporarily stop the city from enforcing the vaccine mandate while the group challenges the city in the federal Second Circuit court of appeals.”

People should just ignore it if it’s from that long ago.
First paragraph I’m thinking, wasn’t that 50 years ago?
Yes.
And I smell bullshit.
I have to believe the statute of limitations has run on that claim. Civil claims usually have a statute for minors of age of majority plus two years.
In long ago times there were seasonally unemployed men in the Twin Cities, mostly single men, miners and ore boat workers, that didn’t operate in the winter. Some had a problem with the booze, some didn’t. Many went to the main library in Mpls and read during the day. It was warm, quiet and no one bothered them. They weren’t homeless, they had a cheap flop house but wanted to get away from the more chaotic scene on Washington Ave.
Anyway, Washington Ave got cleaned up, unemployment benefits helped keep some in the towns where they worked. A lot or at least some were well read while waiting to go back to their jobs. Homeless maybe but not derelicts.

Did that a couple times.

“EXCLUSIVE: Donuts, cereal and pizza should be redefined as DRUGS: Scientists say highly processed foods are just as addictive and harmful as CIGARETTES”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-11413339/Donuts-chips-pizza-redefined-DRUGS-scientist-say.html
No, drugs should be defined as pizza. Thirty minutes or less, or your eight ball is free.
These are the experts we’re supposed to trust.
Ive always loved how they skirted the issue about alcohol being a “drug”. I guess the FDA still won’t (cant) play in the ATF’s backyard.

You think the Hatfields and McCoys feuded? Just get two bureaucracies into a turf war.
Oh one of the largest polluters in the US is the DoD, and EPA has sued them many times.

Sure, why not.

My ex could have learned from these people.
At this point what difference does it make?
The Dow gained 1,200 points today. All of the headlines say it’s because inflation cooled to 7.7 percent. Expectations are pretty low out there.
If you hemorrhage the strategic petroleum reserve, it can make a difference.
Only had to last till this week.
I dont want to go all Alex Jones, but getting rid of the petroleum reserve is by design. It weakens us a a nation if say, some shit should break out.
The Dow gained 1,200 points today. All of the headlines say it’s because inflation cooled to 7.7 percent. Expectations are pretty low out there.
Maybe they (the “smart” money) figure the pressure is off the Fed to keep raising rates, and Powell will put things on cruise control.

A lovely word salad worthy of VP Harris.
No, Harris would’ve had shorter words and repeat some of them.
Shorter is not longer. Shorter is not longer
That’s what she said.
I think this year is going to be bad. People have already run up their credit cards.
Auto loan delinquencies are on the rise.
I read some scary shit about small business rent delinquencies.
Shit storm incoming.
As in they are happening already, or are expected to?
A shocking percentage already behind.
There are always delinquencies, of course, but it appears to be getting ugly. I’ll try to find the article again.
Sounds depressing.
Small businesses get fucked the hardest. It absolutely is depressing.
Just wait until Biden’s new army of IRS assholes are hired and pointed at us.
To be fair, a lot of small businesses commit tax fraud, with both undeclared income and business deductions for personal expenses. When Mrs. Dean was briefly a business broker, she wouldn’t present financials unless they lined up with the tax returns. Practically none of them did.
Practically none of them did.
So?
Taxation IS theft, after all.
I feel really bad for our local family-owned restaurants. They’ve had to increase menu prices at least 50% because of supply costs. And that’s driving their customers away. That’s some hard shit for them to deal with right after recovering from the forced Covid closures.
That’s some hard shit for them to deal with right after recovering from the forced Covid closures.
I’m so fucking tired of ignorant shitheads telling me that you can just pass those costs along.
No, dumbfucks. Just because the retards distort the supply chain doesn’t mean that market signals go on vacation.
Fuck.
Was Repo Man ever a Thursday night movie?
No, but it could be.
Doesn’t that risk classing up the joint?
Tonight is classy! It’s British!
That’d be a good one. Also, Student Bodies if that hasn’t been done.
GREAT idea.
As an aside, am the only one here that’s done that? It wasn’t as fun as the movie, but I did repo a plane once.
Repo’ed a few cars when I worked in a bank – hard to believe they didn’t outsource that, but then again, they had a dumb college grad willing to do it (with someone who had experience).
Yeah, I worked for a finance and leasing company when I first got out of college. We also bought a bunch of portfolios from banks who thought leasing cars would be a sweet and easy way to make money (it’s not)!
It was a blast, actually. A lot of our stuff was in CA, so we outsourced that. Stuff that was close to home, me and another youngster handled it.
We had a Porsche go walkabout in CA. I had the most amazing investigator out there who recovered it in Texas, called me from Iowa and delivered it to Minneapolis in the middle of winter. I met the guy, drove him to the airport and then took the car home and put it in my garage (it was a Saturday) We had recently moved into our first house and were getting to know the neighbors. Wonderful neighborhood, but let’s just say that a 911 cabrio was an unusual sighting. In winter. Late on a Saturday night.
One of my neighbors told me later that he assumed I was a drug dealer!
Good times.
And that was before he saw the Porsche!
Life of a repo man is always intense.
Penguin!
How’s things, my brother? Still jammin’?
A plane?!
Piper Cherokee.
It wasn’t that big of a deal. Just towed it from the field to a secure hanger.
The giant-assed RV was much more challenging!
There was a reality show for about five minutes some time within the last few years about plane repo folks. Got themselves into some dicey situations! 😳
So my dad, whose day job was as a city insurance adjustor/investigator, and whose night job was as an investigator for a particular law firm, was stealthily called into the bishop’s office at church and asked for a special favor. This favor involved “repo”ing a car of a woman who was trying to get away from her abusive husband. Husband wouldn’t give her her car back. Of course, my dad did it, and happily. He always called it “stealing cars for Jesus.”
Not gonna lie, it’s kind of a rush.

I got cold calls from two different Hyundai dealerships today asking if I wanted to trade in my 2019 Elantra for something newer. Sales must really be in the shitter
Used cars are non-existent. My dealer back in MN wants my F-150 in the worst way!
“My dealer back in MN wants my F-150 in the worst way!”
No doubt. You can transport a shitload of drugs in an F-150.
6.5 foot bed, so yeah.
Although the MJ is legal in MN now.
I just got a quote on my 2014 FJ Cruiser with 113,000 miles. I disclosed that the airbag and seatbelt idiot lights were on (long story, which I didn’t need to go into). $22,000.
Wow.
A dealer offered $25,000 if we could clear the idiot lights. That would require new front seats, which are practically impossible to find.
Sure it’s not the sensor?
100%. It has seats that don’t plug into the car’s wiring.
Nothing left to cut – pandemic version
Hmmm… I would guess that people and animals used to live a lot closer together than they do now. But what do I know. I never went to a fancy public health workforce initiative.
A new generation of interns will learn to write super awesome models from the people who predicted 70K deaths in Minnesoda if nothing was done and only 50K if lockdowns were enforced.
And the actual (inflated) body count was . . . ?

“Lifting Universal Masking in Schools — Covid-19 Incidence among Students and Staff”
“As such, we believe that universal masking may be especially useful for mitigating effects of structural racism in schools, including potential deepening of educational inequities.”
“The decision in some school districts to sustain school masking policies longer may therefore reflect an understanding among parents and elected officials that structural racism is embedded in public policies and that policy decisions have the potential to rectify or reproduce health inequities.”
https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2211029
SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!
Da fuck?
My sentiments exactly
Maybe we need a new and improved Pol Pot to rid us of the education PhDs.
All your children are belong to us!
My kids barely escaped this bullshit. If I had younguns now the only options would be homeschooling or moving to a saner jurisdiction. Leave my kids with these asshats for 6-8 hours a day? No way.
According to the study, lifting mask requirements led to about 12,000 additional cases of COVID. Other than the scary maybe’s and could’s in the beginning, nowhere in the study do they talk about deaths caused by lifting mask requirements. Which I assume means you can safely estimate them to be right around zero.
Let me show this shit-covered number I just pulled out of my ass.
“And for my next trick, watch me cite inequity as a reason for us to keep mandates in place!”
The masks didn’t work very well for Covid, but they really filter out the racier particles before they can infect innocent children of color.
Racist particles dammit!
I wish I got paid to write gibberish.
Shoulda gone to law school.
One might think the Nation of Islam was writing this crap.

Sid and Nancy?
Ugh. This Elmo covid vax for kids commercial is so fucking cringe. And they played it 3 times in 10 minutes.
Jeez, the political surveys are still going on. I just got off the phone with a pleasant lady who wanted to know why I voted for or against Oz and Fetterman. She ended with a “If the 2024 candidates were Biden and Trump, which would you vote for?” I told her “I wouldn’t vote for either even if you put a gun to my head.” She actually laughed.
You didn’t ask her what she was wearing?
Is it on Tubi?
Fantastic fear of Everything: Yes
Repo Man: No, but it might be on Crackle or something else.
It is. i just enacted my own goddam labor. I deserve a cookie.
Your miraculous ability to unthread has rendered me incapable of assessing the correct movie.

Now that is a classy movie title.
*Lights Q signal*
There are hits for “gingersnatch” on PornHub.
No doubt.
I refuse to take your word for it. I’ll have to find out for myself.
it [Repo Man] might be on Crackle or something else.
I wonder if it’s on that channel I added last night (can’t remember the name) If it has The Devils, there’s no telling what else might be on it.
Keep ’em guessin’. That’s my motto.
