A schools administrator was beaten to death and his wife and son critically injured when his other 19-year-old son, aided by an accomplice, broke into their Farmington Hills, Oakland home and launched a brutal attack, police said.
Robert Cipriano, known among friends and family as Bob, was allegedly killed by Tucker Robert Cipriano in a savage baseball bat beating just before 3am on Monday.
Yikes. Hey, but no “Gun Death”, so no problem right. And his own family was behind it?
Yeah its tools that cause crime! Give me a damn break!
A two-year-old girl was brutally bitten and beaten to death while in the care of her mother’s boyfriend, local news reported.
Brittany Cotton said she dropped off daughter Armaney at an Englewood neighbourhood home before going to start her shift as a cleaner at a downtown hotel.
The 19-year-old said that the toddler was suffering a cold but nothing more serious on the morning of her death….Armaney died of multiple injuries from a beating, according to a coroner’s report. The family said she had 20 bruises and scratches on her face, arms and chest.
Most shockingly she also had at least two bite marks on her body.
‘Babies fall all the time. They don’t get cuts and bruises and bites,’ Cotton said. ‘She did not fall.’
The creature that did this to this baby is NOT a human being, this is a feral beast, and it needs to be put down. Unfortunately that won’t happen, in part because those who use the metric of “Gun Death” always see the tool as the reason for crime, and never whatever issues plague subhumans like this.
But hey, a best bit and beat a baby to death, but no “gun death” so no big deal, right?
A bomb scare that shut a terminal at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport for 90 minutes on Friday morning was caused by a passenger carrying what he said was a water filtration system in his checked baggage, an official said.
Police questioned and released the man without charges after the materials were determined to not be explosive, airport spokesman Patrick Hogan said. He declined to identify the man because he was not charged….Witness Bev Aho of Eden Prairie was at the Humphrey terminal when she and other travelers were evacuated by authorities around 5:15 a.m. as she was entering the terminal for a flight.
I’m sure that made an awful mess for people’s flight plans. And for what. Oh and this shining light!
Passengers who were already inside the pre-screening area were allowed to stay in the terminal, but anyone arriving after the discovery of the package was diverted to the parking ramp across the street from the Humphrey terminal.
So did they really think this was a bomb, or that an attack might be happening? So why keep the people INSIDE the terminal around?
Commentary: Guns for self-defense mean more costs, not more benefits
Odd, I own and carry guns because I have a firm and researched belief that guns do more good than harm. OK you’ve piqued my interest…
FBI statistics for 2010 indicate that for every justifiable homicide by a private citizen using a firearm there were approximately 50 criminal homicides with a firearm. When suicides by firearm and fatal gun accidents are considered, there were about 115 deaths through the misuse of a firearm for every justifiable homicide in which a private citizen shot and killed another in self-defense.
Hmmm, so now we’re comparing murder to justifiable homicide. Is that relevant? If I draw a gun on a mugger and they run away, or a rapist is shot by an intended victim and is rushed to the hospital and survives, is that a bad thing?
Yeah, we talk “Stopping Power” not “Killing Power”. Of course we’ve seen the REAL numbers, and guns are USED in self defense around 100,000 times per year (documented criminal reports, and likely a low number) and estimated as high as two million, which because of methodology I suspect that’s a bit high. So anybody rational can figure that the number is somewhere in between. (citation)
But wait, we have the death knell!
Many studies have shown that guns kept in the home are far more likely to be used against family members or involved in suicides or accidents than actions against intruders. In one study, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, Drs. Arthur L. Kellermann and Donald T. Reay found that for every self-defense homicide involving a firearm kept in the home, there were 43 suicides, criminal homicides or fatal accidents of residents.
Another study by Dr. Kellermann and his colleagues found that guns kept in the home were four times as likely to be involved in accidents, seven times as likely to be involved in criminal assaults or homicides and 11 times as likely to be involved in attempted or completed suicides than to be used to injure or kill in self-defense.
If by “Many Studies” you mean, just that one Kellermann study, and Kellermann won’t even stand up for his poor work. They’re so desperate for a study that shows numbers the way they want them, that they keep dredging up this horrible piece Joyce-funded ethics violations.
Kellermann is synonymous with “Junk Science”, but is still cited daily by people looking to mislead, even 17 years after it was first discredited, and never repeated.
Oh and just for giggles:
National surveys conducted by the Injury Control Research Center and the National Opinion Research Center show that Americans, by a wide margin, feel less safe when they believe that more people in their community are acquiring or carrying guns.
Never read this survey, but when shown this image most people will FEEL that the right line is longer. Doesn’t matter how well or poorly this study was doing, the end result is garbage…oh and so is this article.
We all joke about the Anti-Rights “Blood In the Streets” and “High Noon at the OK Corral” predictions…but yet they still exist. My Dad said to me the other day: “You know they’re making open carry without permits legal in Oklahoma?”
My answer: “You mean like its been in Maine since forever?” Oops, Nothing scary there!
“OH NO You can carry a gun in Arizona Without a Permit!” And the problem is? Yeah. “YOU CAN CARRY IN BARS IN VIRGINIA!!!!”, yep, and I did several times while I was down there on vacation! BIG FRIGGIN’ DEAL!
AMPA, Florida (AP) – The thousands of protesters expected at the Democratic and Republican national conventions can come armed with a lot more than signs and slogans: State law in Florida and North Carolina allows concealed weapons, including guns.
In Tampa, where the Republicans will hold their festivities this fall, officials are starting to worry about people toting guns in such a politically charged environment. The City Council voted Thursday to ask Republican Gov. Rick Scott to help them temporarily ban concealed weapons. Charlotte officials have yet to publically voice concern, but with both cities trying to balance public safety with First and Second Amendment rights, it’s likely the host city for the Democratic convention will also have to address the issue.
The Tampa City Council wants Scott to issue an executive order, preventing people with concealed weapons permits from carrying guns….Charlotte officials also believe they are hamstrung.
“We can’t change what the state legislature has in place,” said Mark Newbold, an attorney with the police department.
Sorry, you can’t do it, its illegal. Oh and you know what else is illegal? committing crimes with guns!
Let’s look at the most recent “Political attack”, the Tuscon Mall Shooting. Loughner had a clean background, but that was only because the bleeding heart “Progressive” Sheriff kept refusing to charge him with the countless felonies he committed under his watch. We talked about it before, “Progressives” care more about criminals than they do about good people, and because this criminal was coddled, and coddled until he killed and maimed a bunch of good people. That’s where the system’s priorities were.
Do you think if he had a felony conviction that would preclude him from buying guns at gun shops, and carrying or owning guns legal…you don’t think a drug addict who had all sorts of felonious contraband in his possession at the time of the murders couldn’t get his mitts on a black-market gun? Sorry, but the dude had LSD and Mushrooms in his home which are 100% illegal in this country without some crazy federal licenses for scientific testing (a Coworker of mine used to give LSD to Mice as part of her job! How cool?), but its legal to buy a handgun in every state in the union, and just a crime to give or sell it to the wrong people.
Of course that’s talking worst case scenario, which is bullshit anyway. Presidential candidates and presidents travel through gun-friendly places all the time. Guess what happens? NOTHING.
Actually when Hillary Clinton was running for President in 2008, my truck was first-in-line to be stopped so that former President Bill Clinton’s limousine could depart Harvard college after a speech. I was carrying a 1911, and he had the rear window rolled down and I got a clear look at his face through the open window.
Don’t much care for the man, but he’s out of power, so really I could care less.
So yeah, lots of nothing is going to happen.
Oh and a further note for why I call them “Anti-Freedom”:
Tampa is proposing a “Clean Zone” protest area with portable toilets, water, a stage and a microphone for protesters. Outside that area, people will be allowed to march down an official parade route as long as they have a permit.
The exact location of the protest zones and security perimeter will be decided by the city commission in the coming weeks.
Go figure! Those who don’t like the freedom discussed in the 2nd Amendment don’t much care for the 1st either. I’m sure they would also love to have TSA goons outside to illegally search people too, because they aren’t just anti-gun, they are against ALL Freedom!
A convicted Bay State killer convinced the Feds that his 15 years behind bars were so stressful that it gave him PTSD, clearing the way for him to collect a $700-a-month taxpayer-funded disability handout.
Lester Young, convicted for shooting a Dorchester man during a 1994 robbery, realized his big house stint made him a nervous wreck after he was paroled in 2009 and had to face an automatic bathroom sink.
First up he was convicted of murdering somebody during an armed robbery and he’s FREE! I know a few felons, I know people who were drug addicts and/or drug dealers, I know people who have spent time in Jail. I don’t know ANYBODY who’s MURDERED another person. I’m not a huge fan of those other serious crimes, but Murder is a bridge too far. Also I’ll point out that it is VERY easy not to murder people…I DO IT EVERY DAY! Somebody who goes that step to murder really isn’t the type of person who should be off a leash EVER.
But to add to that this monster got out, and got a bullshit diagnosis for PTSD BECAUSE of prison, and was taking money from the public coffers.
Yeah, get that, MURDER somebody, and they PAY you for it, meanwhile start a company and employ people, work a productive job, help people, make products, make the world a better place and they TAKE YOUR MONEY TO GIVE TO MONSTERS WHO ACTIVELY MADE THE WORLD WORSE!!!!
Oh and note that this came up on the violation of his parole. He did his time, and still can’t act right. Having trouble adjusting to society? Simple DEATH PENALTY! We’ll put you down painlessly and with dignity.
There are Millions of people who can behave themselves in the very broad sense of not committing crimes that are associated capital punishment and life sentences. Why do we need to cause so much trouble and turmoil for the rejects who can’t meet that VERY low bar.
Seriously, I’m not saying you have to obey the speed limit, stay off drugs, or even not punch people in the face because you’re a total asshole, I’m talking about people who do predatory fraud of people’s life saving, people who murder, people who rape, people who torture.
That’s a VERY low bar, and if you’re reading this, you’ve never even gotten CLOSE to this bar in your darkest hour.
Those who are so deviant they can’t stay above this abyssal limit are really beyond rehabilitation, and probably had multiple warnings before they crosses the line. Let’s not waste any more time or trouble on them, that’s for people who are GOOD.
Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy signed a bill into law Wednesday that abolishes the death penalty, making his state the 17th in the nation to abandon capital punishment and the fifth in five years to usher in a repeal.
The law is effective immediately, though prospective in nature, meaning that it would not apply to those already sentenced to death. It replaces the death penalty with life in prison without the possibility of release as the state’s highest form of punishment.
I believe the last death sentence to be issued (but not yet performed) in the state are these feral beasts.
Probably this moonbat criminal coddler will do his best to make sure these monsters die of old age before they ever feel the needle (because somehow moonbats think letting a human being rot in a cage is “More Humane” than a quick painless death….but then again they’re leeching off the public coffers, and is there ANYTHING moonbats like more than watching Tax Dollars getting flushed?), still think about this: Governor Malloy thinks the next set of monsters who rape and burn to death a household full of women and children, they deserve BETTER.
These despicable politicians and “Progressive” Degenerates care more about the worst monsters our society can churn out than the best….and they think they mandate (at the point of the gun) that the best in society should pay for the pleasure of the worst.
This is why I fight against “Progressives”, we have no common ground, and we have NOTHING to agree on.
Saw this on IRC as I woke up. Neither parties are me, and honestly I don’t even really talk with either of these guys, but I thought I’d share:
