Notes From HPS
BY Herschel Smith9 years, 9 months ago
It’s also in spite of almost daily revelations corroborating the increasing danger, and not just from the “illegal” side of the equation. Just within the past day, we’ve learned that Muslim immigration is outpacing that from Mexico and Central America, that 40 percent of New Yorkers are now foreign-born and half the residents of New York City speak a language other than English at home. We’ve also seen that the Border Patrol has been ordered to curtail deportations. Both legal and illegal immigration are being exploited by cheap labor Republicans and “earned citizenship” Democrats, both counting on the directed “cultural terraforming” to advance globalist interests and “fundamentally transform” the country.
David and I have been insistent, and for a very long time now, that the most insidious and dangerous threat to America has been and continues to be immigration, both legal and illegal. The only question that remains is this: have we reached the point of no return? If so, then we participate in politics in order to give us all more time to prepare for the inevitable dystopia.
Johnson’s advice, that “public vigilance, public awareness and public caution in situations like this is particularly important” is true enough, but what’s lacking from that counsel is public preparedness to do anything about it if an attack happens, in spite of reassurances and promises of “enhanced security.” That’s because … well … let Mall of America speak for itself.
“At Mall of America, safety is a top priority,” it advises visitors on a Guests & Security page. “Guns are banned on these premises.”
So then you stay off those premises. Simple. Let Johnson answer for everything that happens after that.
Jesus invoked in the russian rebel’s war on the Ukraine? Um, since we don’t know what Jesus looked like, the only real picture I see is of Che Guevara. And I know Jesus and an egomaniacal communist named Putin have nothing to do with each other.
A prank involving two prosecutors, a courthouse bailiff and a pointed gun has led a judge to revoke the ability of bailiffs statewide to carry firearms when working in courtrooms.
The incident occurred the week of Feb. 2 on the second floor of the Sussex County Courthouse, where the county’s Superior Court is housed. A person who works in the courthouse said the prank involved the courthouse’s chief bailiff, Delbert Garrison, opening the door to a side room where lawyers work and pointing his service weapon at a deputy attorney general in the room.

In the wake of the prank, Superior Court President Judge Jan Jurden made a decision to disallow bailiffs from carrying firearms, two sources told The News Journal. The decision was conveyed to attorneys and courthouse staff Wednesday.
David says not much else is needed in the way of commentary. I don’t know, I wanted to offer up one observation. Notice in response to this irresponsible act (which no reader of mine would ever perpetrate), the judge engaged in the same thing they always do, i.e., pre-emptive policing and judging, rather than simply holding the perpetrators accountable for their actions.

Re; Gun “prank”: I would add: Gosh, I just hate it when the pranks my friends and acquaintances all play on each other with loaded guns turn bad. Next time we’ll use unloaded guns…
These are the sorts of things none of us would ever consider. I’m just amazed these LEO’s and gubmint lawyers didn’t get a pass.

I’m not. “LEOs and gov’t lawyers”. ‘Nuff said.

I’m with you all the way on this, Ned. (I’m not quite sure what Archer means.)

Archer usually nails it. Must be a misunderstanding.

When did punishing the group instead of the individual who committed the act become OK?
Must’ve missed that memo.
Once again, the offender is not punished and everyone else is. (in the case all the other bailiffs).

Ref: The prank.
A long time ago, when I was active Air Force, a Security Policeman (SP) was killed by another SP. Seems they were playing fast draw on each other with unloaded weapons. After they’d ended their “play”, the one going on duty reloaded his weapon. One of the SPs that was off duty engaged the man who’d reloaded his weapon, without thinking, the man with the loaded weapon drew and fired, for real. With the results I stated above.
