Quote Of The Day

From Frank J. Fleming (another longtime Intarwebz buddy*):

Sadly, he doesn’t do much at IMAO anymore, focusing on fun stuff there while saving his unfair, unbalanced and unmedicated commentary instead for Twatter.


*Back in the day, I even had the T-shirt:

Dept. Of Righteous Shootings

When you hear news like this, you just know it’s going to have a happy ending:

“10-4 units responding to the burglary in progress, 22nd Avenue caller now advising it was a black male wearing a white shirt armed with a firearm. The caller now advises she has shot that male; he is currently laying on the ground.”

Ignoring the grammar — it’s “lying”, not “laying” — the rest of the story appears to be that a choirboy broke into an Alabama woman’s house armed with a gun, only to discover that said Heroine was likewise armed and quite prepared to defend herself.  Which she did, to his detriment.

Of course, the choirboy was just some innocent kid — not.

Morgan County Coroner Jeff Chunn identified the male as 46-year-old Narado Brinkley, and WZDX said his criminal past includes drug and burglary convictions.

State records show Brinkley served time for offenses, including first-degree robbery, third-degree burglary, possession of a pistol by a convicted felon, and distribution of a controlled substance, WZDX noted.

His records also indicate multiple probation violations, and he most recently served five months after a 2023 conviction on drug and burglary counts, WZDX added.

So maybe not some pore lil’ choirboy, but a total asshole not worthy of any sympathy whatsoever.

There should be some reward — I mean actual money — offered to people who end up ridding society of such scum.  Feel free to disagree with me, but you’d be wrong.

Weeping & Wailing

As the various reptiles on the Left start facing the consequences of their actions, we get plaintive wails like this one:

…and the perfect response:

The old expression comes to mind, something about sowing winds and reaping whirlwinds.

And it’s only just started.  We are not done with these people.

Quote Of The Day

Whiny little Commie bitch TV interviewer:  “So just bottom line, Mr. Secretary, do you acknowledge that these tariffs are a tax on American consumers?”

SecTreas Scott Bessent:  “No, I don’t.  You’re quoting Goldman Sachs… I made a good career of trading against Goldman Sachs.”

Restraint

So apparently there’s a Good Guy With A Gun involved in the taking down of our loony stabber in Traverse City MI — not that you’d ever read or hear about it in the Messed-Up Media, of course.

Here’s Our Hero, and that’s the situation he found himself in.

Now good for him, in that he restrained himself from ventilating the nutcase.  (I’m not quite sure what’s going on with that hold on the gun, mind you, but whatever.)

Apparently, he told the loony to drop the knife “several times” before the asshole saw the light of reason and dropped the knife

I have to say that if I were in his situation, standing what looks like three or four feet away from the nutcase, I’m not sure that I would have acted the same.

He’s standing very much in range of a stabbing lunge, and as we all know, that’s way too close for comfort.

I may or may not have issued a “Drop the fucking knife!” order, but I sure as hell would have popped three into his chest after the first refusal to do so.  Standing close to a nutcase holding a bloodstained knife, with the screams of his victims echoing all over the place…

Like I said, the man showed admirable restraint.  Others might not have.

Oh, and semper fi, Marine.

Nice People, They Are

There are several good reasons to like the Finns — they’re private people, keep themselves to themselves, and they like to kick Russian ass.  To name but some.

Here’s a good reason to like one of their F1 drivers:

Valtteri Bottas has opened up about his time as a sniper in the Finnish army. The 10-time Grand Prix winner was forced to complete his nation’s mandatory military service between 2008 and 2009 as he was climbing the ladder to F1.

Sadly (I suspect) he didn’t get to shoot any Russians, but hey, that’s just the luck of the draw.  In any event, he’s a fine driver, but just happens to have drawn the short straw most recently, careerwise.  Let’s hope he gets to drive with a team in 2026.
