We're the Only Ones Better Than the Only Ones

A popular city police officer died Saturday, four days after being struck by a sport utility vehicle driven by a federal judge who is a cousin of former President Bush, New Haven's mayor said....

No charges have been filed.

New Haven police chief Francisco Ortiz said a long investigation will be required to determine what happened, but police did not feel it was necessary to test Walker for drugs or alcohol.

We're "The Exclusive Ones"!

Book 'em, Danno!

"Republican Bill Crozier says if he's elected he would put thick, used textbooks under every desk for students to use as self-defense...
I share Publicola's sentiments on this ridiculous proposal. I prefer the "bandukwale sir" method, myself, although I realize others with far more influence among gun owners than I will ever have advocate differently...

Incidentally, you can see a video of the book test here.

To Bandukwale Sir With Love

Gauri Shankar Singh...says he has received death threats from criminals.

'Time and again they have warned of eliminating me if I do not bow before them. I am a teacher; I teach children to fight against injustice,' Singh told IANS.

Criminals killed his brother a few years ago over a land dispute.

'I approached the administration to provide me security but they ignored my request. Since then I have been forced to carry a gun'...

Local police officials have no knowledge that Singh carries a gun to the school.
Brave man. I hope "The Only Ones" leave him the hell alone. And for Krishna's sake, nobody tell Wayne.

We're the Only Ones Lying and Thuggish Enough

Six former or current Milwaukee police officers were charged Thursday in the beating of Frank Jude Jr. - the latest development in the largest prosecution of police here in some 40 years.

The charges bring to eight the number of officers now accused in the beating outside a drunken off-duty police party in Bay View two years ago. Of those, three have agreed to plead guilty...

Former officer Joseph Stromei was charged with and agreed to plead guilty to obstruction of justice after he admitted he had been lying to investigators until a week ago...

Boyle was surprised, however, by the number of officers who now admit they lied.

"The feds have to get around this," Boyle said. "There is a lot of lying under oath that appears to have gone on."
But...but...but I thought "The Only Ones" were...uhh...more trustworthy then ordinary people like you and me.

We're the Only Ones Who Need Your Help Enough


Polk County Sheriff's Office detectives are trying to find an agency-issued handgun that was stolen from a deputy's home.
Well, as we've just seen, they're "The Only Ones" trustworthy enough to "decide who gets guns."

Looks like somebody just got one from them...

Doing the MATH: Who Do You Trust?

Healey Doesn't Trust Local Law Enforcement to Have a Say in Who Gets Guns...

[N]ow she thinks gun lobbyists, not the police, should decide who gets guns."
There you have it, straight from the who...uh...horse's mouth.

According to this Official Gungrabberette Press Release, only "The Only Ones" "should decide who gets guns."

Thanks, MATH geniuses, for so artfully concealing your true agenda.
