First They Came for Your Guns, Now They Want Your Cutlery
The UK is experiencing a crime wave – murder by knife. So now there’s a call for reasonable knife control measures. And London Mayor Sadiq Khan stands ready to enforce them.
Knife Control
The mayor says, “there is never a reason to carry a knife.” Not only that, “Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law.”
Choose Your Putin Poison
Did Putin poison a double agent in England?
Former Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were found unconscious in Salisbury. The WSJ reports they were attacked with a military grade nerve agent 10 stronger than VX nerve gas. Both are still alive in intensive care.
Putin Poison
The Brits are pissed. Theresa May says Putin has until midnight to come up with an explanation. Looks like he might have more splaining to do. Another Russian “mogul” was just found dead in London.
As for Putin poisoning American elections – the Republican House Intelligence Committee says, “no collusion.”
March Against Guns
Students plan to walk out of American high schools on March 24 to march against guns. They feel common sense measures will prevent gun violence.
March Against Guns
LL Bean, Dicks, Walmart and Kroger seem to agree. So they’re raising their minimum gun purchase age to 21.
Lions Don’t Care about Opinions of Sheep
You can see something and say something, but Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel isn’t listening.
But he is talking.
He will tell you he provides “amazing leadership.” And that “lions don’t care about the opinions of sheep.”
Red Flags
The kid who killed 17 former high school classmates in Parkland, Florida had a tough time getting the cops’ attention. Red flags popped up everywhere. Callers warned the Broward County Sheriff’s office 18 times. A tipster told the FBI in January, “I know he’s going to explode.”
Four cops stood outside outside the school building while inside he fired away.
Then the shooter left the building and bought a soda.
National Review’s David French says, The Parkland shooter did everything but call police and tell them the date and time of his attack. It would have been difficult for him to make his intentions more clear.
Red Flags
CNN’s Jake Tapper asked Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel, “Are you really not taking any responsibility for the multiple red flags that were brought to the attention of the Broward Sheriff’s Office about this shooter before the incident?”
The sheriff’s reply? “I’ve given amazing leadership.”
