Northbound

"The danger is out there, with all the weapons being found coming northbound…. someone needs to know about this!” [More]
So our biggest problem ain't that southbound "flow"...?

Never Volunteer

I know they say that, but after the comment left on Sunday's GRE by anonymous bad boy "Karl" I just couldn't help myself.

No Charge

Makhele said as the man was acting within his rights to defend himself, he will not face any charges. [More]
Now hold the vuvuzela just a dang second here..

What happened to:

Just Give Them What They Want

[W]hatever you do, comply with what the robbers want because whatever you have is not worth being shot over. [More]
How do you know what they want, Second District Police Commander Keith Sulzer?

Fun times in Cleveland today!

And again...

We're the Only Ones First Responder Enough

Cop Arrests Man For Taking Wife To Emergency Room [More]

Just another day of following department protocol.

[T]his latest should serve as yet more evidence--it any is still needed--that just because a politician passes himself off as a sport shooter doesn't mean squat. [More]

This Day in History: June 22

Letter to Washington from Lee:
(dated June 22, 1778 Camp.) Dr. General, About eleven miles from Head Quarters and eight miles from this Camp is a most admirable position for the whole Army either in two or one line -- it's left is cover'd by the Stony Brook, its front Clear, excepting to the front of the right where is a strong wood and mill dam where it will be proper to throw a Brigade -- a strong Brigade or two shou'd occupy likewise a Wood on the right -- it's situation is high and commanding -- the ground dry and good -- it is well watered having besides Stoney Brook on the left -- a large Rivulet in the front-another in the rear -- it commands likewise both the roads to Princeton that by Pennytown and that inclining to Hopewell meeting house."
