Darriynn Brown has been charged over the abduction & stabbing murder of a 4-year-old in Dallas. A jogger found the toddler dead in a pool of blood on the street. The suspect's mother said her son didn't do it. “I feel that he’s being framed," Mimi said. https://t.co/8QkgsScQiq
[NYPOST] A man punched a 75-year-old woman in the face in an unprovoked attack as she got off a Queens bus, cops said early Thursday. Maybe we need a War on the Elderly category. Or we could just consolidate a bunch of categories into War on non-Black.
The elderly victim had just stepped off a Q36 bus at Hillside Avenue and Edgerton Boulevard in Jamaica Estates around 1:30 p.m. Saturday when a stranger approached and punched her in the forehead without saying a word, cops said.
The victim was taken to an area hospital, where she was treated and released.
The suspect, who fled, is about 5-foot-6 with a medium build. He was last seen wearing a white surgical mask, an orange du-rag, a black hooded jacket, multi-colored pants, orange and black sneakers, and carrying an orange and gray backpack.
He is shown in surveillance video inside a nearby store.

Everyone noticing the attacks tend to be in Larger liberalized Socialist Democrat controlled cities.
The attackers overwhelmingly tend to Black 17-30 y/o and always seek out OLDER citizens as targets.
An the citizenry in the Liberalized cities tend to be pacified sheep /whimps and just stand there as these Racist attacks happen.

...you get this after several generation of Lefty programs where they destroyed the father figure and made the government the bread provider. How's that inner city matriarchy working for you?
[THEGATEWAYPUNDIT] Hailey Davidson, who is biologically male but identifies as female, played in women’s golf last week and won a professional title after competing against biological women.
The transgender golfer, who previously played in men’s college golf, now hopes to qualify for the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) for female golfers.
According to a Golkweek report, Davidson beat LPGA player Perrine Delacour to win the women’s title at Providence Golf Club in Orlando, Florida last week.
The USGA told Davidson on the same day that he had met the organization’s Gender Policy eligibility requirements and could now participate in the group’s championships.

This is the future women made for themselves. From now on, the #251 ranked man is going to win all of their sports. They demanded this, and now they're getting it, good and hard. And when they protest, they get called bigots! Oh ho ho hee hee, it's too perfect.

The "real women" i.e. feminists, demanded this. They won again and again using their ridiculous arguments. Now, someone has taken their exact same arguments and used them against them. And won.
Poetic justice is so rare in the real world, it must be savored when it happens.
[AIER] Scams, frauds, flim flams, and grifts are nothing new to America. In fact, confidence games were old hat when Clifton Wooldridge published his 1906 classic, The Grafters of America: Who They Are and How They Work, which describes common cons in fin de siecle Chicago. The recent death of notorious investment scamster Bernie Madoff should remind Americans that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
As America descends into policy disarray, the scamming of others is increasing. Wire fraud is rampant, as is the impersonation of government workers, apparently because Americans now expect government officials to accost them for quick cash at least occasionally. I focus here on a much more insidious type of scam that also seems to be on the rise, something that I will politely refer to as "substandard work," but that in informal adult conversation usually goes by a fecal four-letter word followed by "job."
Much of the substandard work being conducted across the country right now ultimately is the government’s fault, specifically a set of policies seemingly deliberately designed to induce Americans not to work: extra unemployment pay; major school systems remaining virtual until fall; bizarre summer camp masking requirements. The first entices lower income people to stay out of the labor market and the latter two make parents think twice, or thrice, about returning to work.
As a result, many usually reliable businesses cannot find any workers, much less good ones. Robin Jones, a regional manager for a major fast food chain in the Upper Midwest, recently told me that April and May of this year have been the tightest labor market he can remember in his 43-year restaurant career, which includes stints in Arkansas, Missouri, Montana, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and Wyoming. His back is giving out because his desk job has turned into a role as a stopgap line worker in the cheap taco wars. While he does what he can, he is only one man. The extreme dearth of workers means much longer wait times than usual and substandard service overall.
A restaurant in a resort town in New Jersey recently purchased a robot called Peanut to deliver food to customers. It reportedly "can open kitchen doors, deliver orders to tables, and bus the dishes when everyone is done eating." It works until it breaks down and doesn’t demand tips.
The labor shortage is hardly restricted to food services. The pool business pictured below, for example, had a good reputation until recently, when it charged a friend of mine $260 to remove the cover from her pool. Just a regular cover. U.S. dollars, not Zimbabwean ones. Inflation is relatively high, but it ain’t that high! If the company had added some suddenly hyper-expensive chlorine to the pool, maybe it would have been okay but it appears the workers were inexperienced newbs flummoxed by simple problems. They removed and stored the cover successfully (bravo!) but couldn’t figure out how to get the pump pumping, got frustrated, and left. But they didn’t want to tell their new boss about their pathetic failure so they charged for the full spring opening service even though they didn’t provide it. Not so smart.

For several years now a relative in the Denver area has been telling me about many problems dealing with building contractors and their employees, doing routine house maintenance and upgrade work. Even though contractors were supposedly vetted and also got glowing reviews online from other supposed customers, their work is very often slipshod and grossly substandard. About half the time the responsibility for this is clearly on the contractor himself. One contractor, trying to excuse a slew of mistakes, tried to blame her and her husband for watching his crew at work, saying they made his people nervous and cause them to screw up.

One example among many - workers had to cut into the power supply lines to the A/C and used a wire nut to refasten two wires. When the A/C was turned out, it hummed loudly & didn't come up to full power. Owners shut it down and inspected the recent work. Husband found the new wire nut, pulled on it lightly, and the whole assembly fell apart. The worker had simply jammed the wire nut on the two wires, didn't tighten it and didn't check for the join's security in any way.

Over 30 years ago one morning I discovered half the circuits in my house were off, the other half were still on. I went to the electric service panel and discovered one of the 2 hot lines going into the service panel was completedly dead. Everything had been fine the night before. This is a city-owned and operated electric utility. Office tried to get me to call an electrician on my own $ to check this out. I countered by saying this deficit by saying the fault was almost certainly in the city's purview. They caved and sent out city workers to check my line. They discovered that a temporary junction between their lines coming from the pole and their line going down to my service panel had been left in place for decades after the last upgrade of the house's electric service. The temporary junction was easily seen from the outside, and should not have been approved by the city inspector way back when. The city removed the 2 temporary fittings, cleaned the corrosion and installed 2 permanent fittings, on their own $. I won't go into all my water lines that froze and burst over the last 40 years because the original installation consisted of copper pipes in uninsulated exterior walls...

[TheBrusselsTimes] The shopping streets of Belgium could soon be home to new arrival: the Russian-owned deep-discount supermarket chain Mere.
The company has announced it aims to open ten stores by the end of the year.
The deep-discount concept is well-known in Belgium, with stores like Smatch, Aldi and Lidl. No frills, stark décor, few major brands and low prices. No sushi bars, no avocado and prawn sandwiches, just basic products at basic prices.
Mere currently has 2,000 outlets in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, where it goes under the ensign Svetofor. In addition, it has started opening stores under the Mere name in Romania, Germany, Poland, Lithuania and Latvia.
“Our company works in Belgium since 2020 and we are planning to develop rhythmically on the market according to the requests and needs of the customers. We are planning to open 10 supermarkets in Belgium in 2021,” the company says on its Belgian website.

Question: What was the now death person doing to required the Officer to use that level of force?
Answer:
jailed for resisting arrest,
public intoxication,
indecent exposure,
Still in jail, he started up again and had to be brought fought into submission.
The ME Results:
He died from asphyxiation which was likely aided by drug"S" that were still in his system, or that he acquired while in jail, including methamphetamine.
Summary:
Don't be an A-Hole in jail and go home alive.

What a coincidence. I said the same thing, more or less, to someone. Totally get the cops. The world is full of assholes, and you have it in your power to erase one sometimes you don't think and step over the line. Too bad about the stupid bodycams - an absolutely fcuked idea that could only have spawned in a lawyer's mind.
Cops handling prisons are under great pressure, their nerves are shot most of the time and they can easily snap. Which is why they have so many psych evals and meditation workshops [at least here they do]. A buddy of mine is now an advisor to the govt on health and fitness of prison staff and instructs personnel in martial arts and yoga etc to keep them calm and confident, so they don't beat cons to death.

Lived half a century without being arrested, I don't think I'm alone. So what is wrong with a certain segment of our society and how can we seriously deal with them?
Communist China is first in line, and has been infiltrating their people into Siberia for years.

Declare these attacks acts of piracy beyond the law and allow bounties. I think you'd find a few mercenary groups would take out the offenders at half the cost and you'd not have repeats.
[EN.ALGHADEERTV.NET] Italian police said they found weapons, Nazi flags, and pictures of dictator Benito Mussolini ...former dictator of Italia. He perfected the idea of the corporate state and was all the vogue in intellectual circles until he lined up with Adolf in the Second World War. He wanted Italians to be figli de la lupa, and like the sons of wolves they turned on him when they finally got the chance. He ended his days dangling by his heels in a public square next to his mistress... in the homes of the members of a white supremacist movement who were trying to build a new fascist ...anybody you disagree with, damn them... party. To bring back Italia's Golden Age.
Officers searched the homes of 25 people belonging to the ’Last Legion’ group on Thursday on suspicion of spreading hatred on the internet against Moslems, homosexual people, and Jews, police said.
Investigators seized knives, ammunition, guns, and fascist memorabilia stored by members who openly defined themselves as "fascists" and advocated violence as a way to solve the political conflict, a police statement said.
"I always have rings on my fingers and a truncheon with me. Now I also have a machete," read a message sent by one Last Legion member to another, intercepted by the police.
Group members also denied the existence of the coronavirus (aka COVID19 or Chinese Plague) ...the twenty first century equivalent of bubonic plague, only instead of killing off a third of the population of Europe it kills 3.4 percent of those who notice they have it. It seems to be fond of the elderly, especially Iranian politicians and holy men... pandemic, calling it a plot by financial and religious lobbies, Eugenio Spina, the head of the police branch dedicated to fighting terrorism and extremism, said.
"They wanted to build a new fascist party," he added.
Police said they made no arrests on Thursday but were investigating two people for holding unregistered guns.
The investigation started in 2019 in the central region of Abruzzo and was then extended across Italia, targeting a total of 18 provinces from north to south, police said.

Musk is also developing batteries and autonomous vehicles, two technologies that would be quite handy on Mars. There just might be method to his madness.

Musk is doing some interesting things in Australia with big-ass battery farms. Completed is a 100 megawatt unit to save South Australia from its disasterous flirtation with 'renewable power'. Next up is a 300 megawatt big boy.
[SpaceNews] The mission known as USSF-51 was switched from Vulcan to Atlas 5 at ULA's request
What would have been the first national security mission for United Launch Alliance’s Vulcan Centaur rocket will be flown by Atlas 5, the company confirmed May 19.
That mission, known as USSF-51, was awarded to ULA in August 2020 and is scheduled to launch in late 2022. The company had bid its newly developed Vulcan to fly that mission but the vehicle is not going to be ready on time. As a result, the Space Force agreed to allow ULA to launch USSF-51 on the company’s legacy vehicle the Atlas 5.
ULA on Aug. 7 received a $337 million contract to launch USSF-51 and USSF-106, scheduled for late 2022 and mid 2023, respectively. The Space Force on that day announced that ULA and SpaceX were selected to launch military and intelligence agency satellites in a five-year deal known as National Security Space Launch Phase 2.
ULA’s Vulcan won 60% of the Phase 2 missions, and SpaceX’s Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy won 40%.

The engines in the Vulcan come from Blue Origin. So a late Amazon delivery?
#2
There are currently enough RD-180 engines in ULA's inventory for more Atlas flights than are scheduled. It's unlikely the remaining engines will simply be scrapped.

My problem with IE was always its proprietary DOM. I've avoided Edge so far, being an exclusively Linux user. Edge users will have to let me know when the problems start showing up, since I don't test on it.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
