The Unemployment Lines In The US Are Getting Longer...

 ...not due to economic issues, just down to the emotional incontinence pd so many progressives in their reactions to the hideous muder of Charlie Kirk:

Their mouths (and mostly social media fingers) writing checks their employers, once brought to their attention, declined to cash. 

And it's not just Twitter of coutse, over on Bluesky, where so many of the 'be kind' left went because they found Twitter 'too toxic':

Noe is it just the US, sad to say, mant washed up UK failed tv 'personalities' decided to get in on the act, despite the fact Charlie Kirk was relatively unknown here:

What posesses people to see a man shot for his opinions, and immediately rush to show the world how some opinons simply aren't worth listening to? Trawling through Twitter has been like wading through a swerer, or, as the inimitable David Thompson put it: 

Some people, even now, are asking if people should lose their jobs for what they have said on social media, and I have to say 'Yes, yes, they should, because this isn't a freedom of speech issue, it's an issue of basic humanity and self control' And the people who cannot display any have been tolerated too long. Now is not a time fot 'unity' and singing Kumbahya', it is, as my fellow blogger James notes, a time for anger and refusal to tolerate the status quo the progressives have enjoyed up to now.

Sounds Like You Skipped A Vital Part Of Lessons To Me

Kelly Ghaisar never thought to teach her son, Bijan, to fear the police. She didn’t see the need.

I never thought that Bijan, a young man of colour, would need to know what to do if he encountered the police. We taught him they were there to protect him, not that he would ever have to protect himself from them.”

Pity you didn't teeach him that when the police pull you over, you stop. I mean, there are even instructional videos on this stuff.

After the accident, Bijan didn’t stop – Kelly doesn’t know why – and the passenger inside the Uber called 911 to report the incident and said that Bijan had fled the scene. The 911 dispatcher put out a call identifying his vehicle and he was spotted by Lucas Vinyard and Alejandro Amaya, two DC park police (a federal law enforcement agency) officers, who started a pursuit. They were joined by a police car from Fairfax county, Virginia, which recorded what followed. The park police officers pulled Bijan’s car over, got out of their vehicle and approached him, their guns raised and pointing into his car.

I guess Bijan didn't watch much Chris Rock, because he immediatel floored it! 

In the video footage of the encounter, which Fairfax county police released a few months after Bijan’s death, you can see Bijan’s Jeep driving away and then stopping a second time and Amaya running to the vehicle with his gun drawn, banging it against the window. Bijan drives off again and there is a short chase before he pulls over again and the park police stop in front of his Jeep.

And this being the US, the police promptly fired into the car. I'm sure they wouldn't have done that sort of thing in your ancestral homeland of Iran, eh?

In the seven and a half years since Bijan’s death, Kelly and her family have relentlessly fought the US government for accountability. She says that at every turn it has been denied. “When you are fighting the federal government and they close ranks, there is nowhere to go,” she says. “The park police are federal police. The FBI is a federal department. The courts are there to protect the federal government. There is no way to get justice if the justice department is against you.”

I really doubt Iran's justice system is much better.  I note she's not so disappointed in America that she's chosen to return.

You Spelled ‘Hamas’ Wrong, ‘Guardian’

Hamas can stop this horror. They can release any of the hostages that are still alive and lay down their weapons.

“Seldom have I heard the leader of a state so clearly outline a plan that fits the legal definition of genocide,” said Josep Borrell, the former EU foreign affairs chief. The international court of justice ruled in January last year that there was a “plausible risk” of genocide. Amnesty International, a UN special committee and leading scholars, including within Israel, have concluded that genocide is taking place.

And you're angry about it because its the 'wrong' side? 

Openly envisioning the total destruction of Gaza, pursuing the removal of its population as a goal rather than a battlefield consequence, and destroying the means by which life is sustained, looks not merely like brutality but a deliberate project of elimination.

I wonder why the rest of the Muslim world isn't making as much of a fuss about it as the white progressives? Or offering safe refuge?

Egypt and Jordan have refused to accept refugees, saying that they would otherwise be complicit in war crimes.

Oh, never mind. I just remembered why they aren't doing that...

So Open, Their Brains Have Fallen Out...

A police spokesman said they were 'keeping an open mind' as to whether the two incidents were linked.

Gosh, what are the odds? 

Derbyshire Constabulary confirmed officers had been called to reports of a burglary at the remote Peak District farmhouse at 3.30pm on Tuesday. They attended the property, on a remote country lane, in Whaley Bridge, Derbyshire, and launched an investigation.That was ongoing when reports came in of the second raid at the farmhouse less than ten hours later, at around 1.20am the following day.

Obviously the felon's network was working overtime... 

Yesterday the farmer arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder was named by locals as Rob Lomas, a 50-year-old divorcee. They said his alleged victim was a talented 19-year-old footballer called Marcus Smith.

He's not a 'victim' of anything. The poor sod arrested for defending his property is the only true victim here.  

Police found Mr Smith with fatal injuries inside Mosley Hall Farm and another teenager with a gunshot wound seriously hurt on the road outside. A former pupil at Chapel-en-le-Frith High School, Mr Smith played for Chapel Town FC. Yesterday his 51-year-old mother Kerry, who is understood to work as a nurse, posted a picture of herself with her son on her Facebook page. It prompted comments from friends expressing their heartbreak and sympathy. One wrote: 'We are so shocked and so heartbroken, nothing can express how deeply sorry we are.'

No sympathy for the man who is now behind bars for having no option, I note. 

The public aren't behind you on this. They are behind the real victim. 

The fundraiser has already raised more than £16,000 of £10,000 target, with more than 600 people donating.

I wonder how much a fundraiser for the dead burglar would raise? 

Sounds Like, For Once, It Went Right!

Neighbours said the incident appeared to have been a 'burglary that went wrong.'

A woman, who lives close the farm, said: 'The farm is in a remote location, quite deep in the valley and set back from the main road.

'I suspect it was an opportunistic burglary that has gone wrong.'

One thieving scumbag dead, another (hopefully) injured severely enough to give up a life of crime. A better result for society than the justice system provides.

Chief Superintendent Dave Kirby, of Derbyshire police, said he believed the incident was a 'targeted attack' and there was no wider risk to the public.

'Residents in the area will see an increased police presence in the area for some time as investigations continue and we will provide further updates as soon as we are able.'

Perhaps if you'd had that presence beforehand this wouldn't have happened. 

Who Are You Trying To Fool?

Joseph's mother, Sarah, described in a statement following the case how she was still trying to come to terms with her son's death.

She said: 'Joseph was an amazing young man who had the world at his fingertips. He was kind, funny, caring, loyal and compassionate.

'His murder has left a huge hole in the lives of his family and friends and he will be forever loved and missed by us all.

'I will never forgive and never forget.'

Another innocent robbed from his family by savages, eh? 

Detective Chief Inspector Laura Harrison, from West Mildands Police's homicide unit, added: 'This is another young life lost to knife crime.

'Only those involved will know the reason for the attack, but no doubt it was not worth the price of a life, or the lengthy sentences that those convicted are facing.'

Woah, hold up there, Laura! It's no mystery at all, is it? After all, it all came out at the trial, didn't it?

Joseph, from Bartley Green, Birmingham, was in Stourbridge town centre with friends on the day of his murder, the court heard, when he spotted another group of teenagers and ran up to them at the bottom of High Street.

Joseph attacked two of them with a screwdriver before attempting to get into a car with his friends which had pulled up alongside him, jurors were told. But the teenager struggled to get into the car and ran off along Coventry Street as he was chased. Joseph was then attacked himself, suffering a fatal blow to the chest.

So who are you trying to fool? Us, or yourselves? 

The Prosecution Says...

'Mr Mahmood should not have used the Taser. It was not, the prosecution say, a reasonable use of force in the circumstances he faced. It was not lawful.'

And the jury says 'Oh, yes, it was...'

And yet another jury says 'You must be kidding!'...

"You've done a man's job, sir!"

Although, you could have been a bit quicker on weapon dog no:2, it got too close to the officers for my liking.

I won't embed the video in deference to any readers who aren't, like me, totally fed up with these things on our streets and don't want to see them shot dead, but you can see it here and there are other closer videos floating around YouTube.

The only 'shocking' thing is that it took them so long to finally act. Oh, and the display of ignorance from the onlookers:

A 25-year-old woman who witnessed the situation unfold told the Mirror: 'It didn't seem proportionate. It is beyond belief.

'It was so shocking. I didn't realise it was a proper gun until the dogs were just lying completely out on the ground. There was blood coming out of them.

'I've never seen anything like that. You hear of these things happening in America but not here. Whatever had happened, it's not an excuse for it to end like that.'

It's debatable who has the lower IQ, the deceased mutts or the 'poor puppy!' crowd...

The Metropolitan police has defended its officers after a suspect was Tasered and two dogs were shot in front of screaming witnesses.

“This is never an easy decision for any officer to take, but police have a duty to act where necessary before any further injury is caused. The Met’s directorate of professional standards will review the circumstances of the incident.”

Before hopefully buying them all a beer.
