I was going to post this in the 'You really can't believe this shit!' thread and then thought it deserves one all to itself.

Remember Pizzagate? The QAnon thing under which the Dems, led of course by Hillary Clinton, were sexually abusing kids at a pizza restaurant in suburban DC, and one man went there and fired shots and rescued all those poor kids? He was taken into custody; no-one was injured; and we all assumed he was some poor nutcase led astray by QAnon and provided he took his meds, was probably no danger to anyone.

Well.

The man, Edgar Maddison Welch, 36, of Salisbury, N.C., was a passenger in a car on Saturday night when an officer with the Kannapolis [NC] Police Department recognized him from a prior arrest and believed there was an outstanding warrant over a felony probation violation, Chief Terry L. Spry of the Kannapolis Police Department said in a statement on Thursday. When the officer confirmed his suspicion and went to arrest him, Mr. Welch pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the officer, the police said.

The police officer and a second officer ordered Mr. Welch to put his gun down. When he did not comply, they shot at him, the department said. Mr. Welch died on Monday at a hospital in Charlotte as a result of his injuries.

I don't celebrate anyone's death. Even when they are killed by the police in what appears, at first glance, to be a justified shooting. Seriously, WTF?

I Suspect this was a political murder since I could find no record of a warrant out for Edgar Maddison Welch. These liberal fascist cops', operatives of the Democrat Party. used that as an excuse to commit a political murder. That's a communist liberal fascist way of getting revenge. Another question to be answered is does this have racial overtones. They set up a situation that they knew would lead to a Deadly confrontation.

Cabarrus County - which is where Kannapolis is located - has voted reliably Republican since Harry Truman's days, so I really doubt that they are overrun by liberal cops.

Back when I was in the criminal justice biz, there was one truism that generally held firm - past behavior is the most reliable predictor of future behavior.

I believe that statement to be true; I think I remember saying it myself a few years ago when racist cops were killing black men. If a white cop killed a black man, the cop was racist. At the time, I was saying we should look at the history of each individual then we could make a determination of what the situation is. If someone is racist or a criminal there will be a history of it.

However, in this case we know that the victim was a member of the resistance, and he was killed by racist cop for being a resistor. Just because he is serving in North Carolina doesn't mean that cop is from there; the communist wing of the Democrat party probably has operative in all parts of the country perhaps recruited from other areas. And just because the cop may be white and killed a white man doesn't mean that he's not a racist; there are whites that hate other white people for being white and a racist. Not being a member of their click makes you racist.

Where is the Federal investigation there isn't one and there won't be one because white lives don't matter.

Of course one of the reasons that past behavior is the most reliable predictor of future behavior is that mental illness and disordered personality, substance use disorder and other disordered behaviors are rampant in our society, and the resources to treat and rehabilitate the people suffering from those mental and behavioral disorders are bare minimum and thus basically inaccessible to most, including in the criminal justice system which by law is required to be rehabilitative.

Just because Liberty's head has not exploded from the infinitude of his brilliant and amazing brain expounding on the working of society and the entire universe, past performance is no guarantee that it will not happen in the future.
