"NEW YORK CITY, NY – Law Enforcement Today has been reporting on the New York Police Department retirement applications increasing. This week, the New York Post has reported that members of the NYPD have been putting in retirement paperwork faster than the department can process. Sources say that officers have cited a lack of support from leaders as well as a loss in overtime pay as reasons for bolting.A spokesperson for the NYPD confirmed that between June 29 and July 6, 179 officers filed for retirement. The Post reported that at the same time last year, only 35 filed. This represents a 411% increase."
Darren, what can you copy and paste about qualified immunity?
I'd love to take a look at that along with prosecutors who have immunity from misdeeds. Let's clean up the entire mess. In for a penny, in for a pound.

Let's take a hard look at prosecutors with political aspirations who pursue cases without merit simply for the publicity.

Now that the Brady material from the Flynn prosecution is out there along with the recent disclosures of other material that was hidden, we should be looking at disciplining prosecutors and maybe even judges.

Judge Sullivan with his request for an enbanc hearing comes to mind as an example.

The best guess is in the USA we're around half a billion firearms in private hands.

U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- June of 2020 has continued the run of record setting numbers of background checks and gun sales for this presidential election year.

The National Instant background Check System (NICS) recorded the highest ever number of checks in a month in June of 2020. The total number was 3,931,607. The number is misleading because the number of checks done for permits and permit rechecks has outpaced the checks done for gun sales.
Most of the checks done, in most months, are done for permits and permit rechecks.

June of 2020 has reversed that trend by a little. Only 1.77 million of the checks were done for permits and permit rechecks. More than 2.1 million checks were done for gun sales.
Courtesy Dean Weingarten

The formula used to estimate gun sales from NICS checks, as provided by the FBI, is checks for handguns + checks for long guns + checks for other + 2.5 x checks for multiple guns on the same form.

The category of “other” consists of sales where the firearm is not classified as either a handgun, rifle, or shotgun. Most of those are probably for lower receivers. A lower receiver could be made into either a pistol or a rifle or a shotgun. A growing number might be for pistol gripped “firearms” that shoot shotgun shells, and are over 26 inches in length, but do not have a shoulder stock. They are classified only as “firearms”.

Such estimates cannot, by their nature, be precise to a few digits. They are a good estimate of the number of guns sold for that period of time.

2.13 million guns sold in one month is an extraordinary number of sales for June. It is a record for the month. Every month in 2020 has been a record, so far. May, June, and July are traditionally slow months for firearms sales. Not in 2020!

According to the monthly estimates, over 10 million firearms have been sold in the first half of 2020. According to my records, it is more than the total number of firearms sold in every year until 2011!
Many people have decided owning a firearm is a worthwhile insurance policy."

"Isaih Martin, a senior at A&M, called police on the afternoon of Wednesday, June 24, to report finding three handwritten notes on his car that said “All lives matter” and “You don’t belong here.” The third note contained the N-word.
...
According to police after reviewing a surveillance camera, “Martin immediately walks to the passenger side of his vehicle, but does not open any doors. Martin is seen toward the front of his vehicle. A brief white speck is seen from about mid-torso of Martin moving toward his vehicle. Another white speck is seen near his chest area. Martin is then seen stepping back and onto the sidewalk in front of his vehicle, most likely taking photos and videos. He then approaches his vehicle again on the passenger side and remains there for a few moments. He is then seen walking around the front of his vehicle. Martin then enters the driver’s door and drives away a few moments later. The total time spent at his vehicle is 1 minute, 15 seconds.”

Police said in the report it was “difficult to distinguish any characteristics of the suspect in the video” but “based on video evidence, no other person had enough time to place the messages on Martin’s car other than himself.”

“He was the only person with enough time to place the notes on his car,” said police."

Taking this at face value - i.e., assuming that Martin did in fact place those cards on his own car - we have a case of someone who wants to be seen as a victim. I don't condone that of course, because it takes away resources from real victims. But playing the victim is not a federal crime which is a good thing as far as the most hoaxed and cheated president in the history of the world is concerned. He thinks that anyone who is against him, hates America. If he had the ability to think logically (hint - he doesn't - I'm not even sure that he has opposable thumbs - if he does they probably have bone spurs) he would realize that a slogan such as 'Make America Great Again' allows us to infer that he thinks that the country, in its 2016 iteration, needed fixing. Sounds like hatred to me.

Darren, WHOA! WHOA! WHOA!

I was being totally facetious with my above comment. Now I feel bad for everyone in here that I asked such a loaded, Darrenesque question.

I just pray you're done.

From Darrin's URL:
LANCASTER, Calif. - Authorities Friday released the names of a suspect and possible accomplice in the alleged assault of an 80-year-old man in the bathroom of a Lancaster grocery store. They were seeking help from the public to find them.

The pair was identified as Demaris Wade, 22, and Tamika White, 33. They were last seen in a 2007 Nissan Altima with California license plate 8CCC010.

Why am I not surprised that they both have mugshots already?

If she wasn't running from the Feds, why didn't they arrest her? Berman's firing and her soon after arrest are more than coincidental.

"A source close to Maxwell said: “Ghislaine has been ­constantly on the move throughout the last year. She would stay in properties for a few days or a week. Security guards were by her side due to death threats.

She was never running from the Feds. She was ­running from journalists and crazy people who wanted to kill her. It was a serious problem. Her location was on a need-to-know basis.”"

Sex trafficking arrests made after 14-year-old’s plea to mom: ‘I don’t want to be here anymore’
Updated Jul 09, 2020; Posted Jul 09, 2020

"FRAZER, Pa. (AP) — A 14-year-old girl’s message on Facebook saying “I don’t want to be here anymore” helped secure her rescue and led to arrests in what authorities call a sex trafficking ring in southeastern Pennsylvania, prosecutors said Wednesday.

The Chester County prosecutor's office said the girl was rescued May 30 from a Malvern convenience store parking lot after being held for weeks at various locations. Investigators allege that she and an 18-year-old were found to be victims of a sex trafficking group."

"INDIANAPOLIS — As IMPD homicide detectives continue to investigate a deadly shooting near the canal over the weekend, family of the victim wants justice and safety improved along the canal.

It was a peaceful place Jessica Doty Whitaker often liked to walk at night with friends and family. But over the holiday weekend, violence there, took her life.

"I'll never probably ever get that image out of my head of what happened," said Whitaker's fiance, Jose Ramirez.

Ramirez said they were walking the canal around 3 a.m. Sunday, when they got into a racially charged argument with another group of people: four men and a woman.
...
Whitaker died at the hospital, a 24-year-old home health nurse who planned to go back to school in August, get married next year and continue to raise her three-year-old son.

"I'm never going to get to hold her again," said, Arlena Doty, Whitaker's mother. "I just want the people who are responsible to be held accountable."

"Just justice. For us, mostly for him. He's got a mom he probably won't even remember when he gets older," Ramirez said. "

"Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has 30 days to appeal after the federal government denied his request for a disaster declaration because of the damage caused in the aftermath of the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May.

According to multiple media reports, the governor’s office was informed on Friday that the disaster declaration was denied, and an agency spokesperson said the damage was something that local and state governments could handle.
...
Walz sent a letter to President Trump on July 2, noting that there was more than $15 million in damage and cleanup costs that could be eligible for reimbursement from the federal government. In all, the current estimates of all damage exceed $500 million, according to media reports."

"HERMISTON — A racist letter that recent Umatilla County commissioner candidate Jonathan Lopez claimed was left anonymously in his mailbox was written by Lopez himself, according to Lopez and Hermiston Police Chief Jason Edmiston.

On Monday, July 6, Edmiston said in an email that Lopez had confessed that he wrote the letter. Edmiston said the case would be forwarded to the Umatilla County District Attorney’s office for review for initiating a false report, a Class A misdemeanor in Oregon."

"BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA: A Pennsylvania man who was facing more than 250 years in prison over child pornography charges was sentenced to five years probation earlier this week. John Paul Doerr III, 34, was first arrested in January 2019 following an undercover investigation by state police into reports that he was sharing child pornography on the internet, according to charging documents obtained by the Butler Eagle.

He was originally facing 42 felonies related to child pornography after he admitted to investigators that he had downloaded pornographic videos involving children, some as young as just one or two-years-old, onto his home computer. He also confessed to watching several hours of adult pornography but was not charged for the same since it was not illegal.

... visiting judge Timothy Creany sentenced Doerr to a total of five years probation along with fines. The first six months of probation will have to be served under a modified house arrest with electronic monitoring, though Creany noted the house arrest will be lifted if Doerr finds a job. Doerr was also ordered to pay $1,950 in fines and register as a sex offender for 15 years. His access to the internet will be monitored for two years as well.

The Butler Eagle reported that Creany had been brought in for the case from Cambria County after all the Butler County judges recused themselves from the case, citing Doerr's connection to his father, President Judge Thomas Doerr. The Butler County District Attorney similarly deferred prosecution in the case to Senior Deputy Attorney General Chuck Washburn with the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Office. Washburn insisted Doerr's sentencing was "standard."

Now you're just as fucking annoying and impulsive as an impish three year old.

Get some professional help.
