Domestic Terrorism
Oh, this is fun:
In the middle of the night Wednesday, police arrested an armed California man near Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s home after the man allegedly told officers he wanted to kill the justice.
Of course, he’ll only be charged with illegal possession of a firearm, will plead down to misdemeanor picking his nose in public, and be freed on $10 bail.
I leave it to my Readers’ imaginations as to what would have happened had this been a Texan stalking judges Kagan, Sotomayor or that new Commie. Especially the latter, her being Black and all.
Wishful Thinking
Apparently, Border Patrol agents captured 23 “migrants” criminals making their way over the border. Even worse, these happened to be not ordinary “migrants”, oh no; these were actually on the so-called terrorist watch list.
What followed was this query:
Fox News reports from a Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB) obtained under a Freedom of Information Act request that Border Patrol agents apprehended 23 migrants whose names matched the list. The apprehensions occurred between January 20 and December 27, 2021.
Former U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner and Chief of the Border Patrol, Mark Morgan, told Breitbart News that the report from Fox News raises serious questions.
“The real question we need to be asking this administration is, what did you do with the 23 people from the Terrorism Screening Database you took custody of?” Morgan said during an interview. “Their arrest would have triggered further investigation by the FBI and other law enforcement entities.”
“Did you release some or all? he asked. “Did you remove some or all?”
My hope is that they were “removed” by taking them out back and shooting them dead, but I’m almost certainly wrong. Unfortunately.
First, McVeigh
…and now this asshole:
On Jan. 12, the Del City Police Department received an intelligence bulletin about someone making threats to blow up the Occupational Safety and Health Administration building in Oklahoma City.
Investigators learned that the man said he was going to rent a truck, fill it with gasoline, blow up the building, and then take his own life.
As an impartial observer, I should note that it doesn’t seem like Oklahoma City is the prime location for gummint offices, does it? (I know, we shouldn’t have so many gummint offices in the first place [/Andrew Jackson].)
Officials say Moore threatened the OSHA because he didn’t agree with the agency’s guidelines regarding COVID vaccinations or face coverings.
Seems a kinda strong response just for “disagreement”, I have to say; so 10-to-1 says this Covid bullshit was threatening his livelihood.
Or else he’s just a radical libertarian.
Nothing To See, Move Along
So late yesterday, some asswipe went into a North Texas synagogue, took four people hostage and had some demands.
…because of course it was — actually, only one of Islam’s Finest — and he wanted some other asshole (convicted) terrorist freed from jail.
What happened next?
After a ten-hour standoff, an FBI Hostage Rescue Team made entry and rescued the three remaining hostages. The FBI confirmed the suspect is dead.
My only regret is that the Feebs took the little turd out. Shoulda just left him to a Texas Ranger. (“Only one Ranger?” “Only one asshole.”) Same result, less fuss.
And Speaking Of South Africa
…we have this little situation developing in Mandelaland:
Looting broke out in several cities in South Africa this weekend after the country’s former president, Jacob Zuma, began serving a 15-month sentence last Thursday for contempt in relation to an investigation of corruption during his tenure.
I should note that Zuma — corruptus maximus on a continent renowned for its systemic corruption — was convicted of perjury, rather than his extensive and bald-faced plundering of South Africa’s already-straitened treasury.
So why are the Usual Suspects copying their BLM counterparts in the U.S.?
Well, it’s all happening in Kwa-Zulu/Natal, because Zuma is a Zulu, you see, and so why not riot and loot all over his homeland?
Needless to say, just as Baltimore was set on fire after some strung-out Black asshole was killed by cops in Minneapolis, so Natal’s little exercise in ad hoc property redistribution is spreading outwards, and the boys in Johannesburg aren’t going to be left out of the fun, no sirree.
The background to all of this is actually a combination of two factors: the grinding poverty that persists in South Africa, and the fact that the hapless and incompetent government has not been able to get even close to vaccinating its people against the Wuhan Menace. The plague that has ensued has resulted in knee-jerk lockdowns, preventable deaths by the hundreds of thousands, and a deepening of the already-critical economic slump.
The second article on the topic is priceless, and contains this gem:
Perhaps most alarming are reports of ordinary people “forming armed groups to protect businesses, homes in KwaZulu-Natal”, and videos on social media which purport to show armed, ad hoc citizens’ militias and private security out on the streets.
Alarming? This is Africa, old son. That’s what you get when you have this situation:
A mosque has also been set on fire in Mayville Durban.
“They were not fighting, they were running for their lives. They were innocent people. We don’t know how they died,” Ismaeel said, alleging that there are “no police” — and indeed that “Police are themselves are targets. You call police they can’t come.”
This squares with reports from Pietermaritzburg, where at least two malls have been looted and one raised [sic] by fire, with the BBC saying that riot police who attempted to disperse looters with rubber bullets were met with live ammunition in return.
Police also came under fire on a freeway near a mall in Durban, where many malls, stores, and at least one factory have been looted, with one officer being hit in the leg.
For some reason, I feel an urge to go to the range…
