Robot arrests citizen?

 

This man was arrested by the first police robot in history. He tried shooting at it and throwing a blanket on it, but still managed to get arrested. pic.twitter.com/BwGn0p1F58

Well I guess. Truth of the matter and everyone has forgotten, but a madman went on a rampage in Dallas killing several officers there. He was cornered in a parking garage and the Chief (who was on scene) ordered the "robot" to be used to in plain words...kill the criminal (justified in my opinion). This is gonna be a HUGE controversy in the future but its just a natural evolution. The US military is playing with weaponizing ground robots. US law enforcement will be forced to get this into the field asap. The new breed of criminal and the firepower leaking across the border will demand sending a robot where you won't send a man.

Bacon wrapped eggs.  Truly a gift from God!

Diddy is on suicide watch. They will "suicide" this guy or he will wreck the rap industry AND destroy several politicians...

Ya'll haven't been paying attention to this story and while I get it, my audience (and me) just ain't into rap (well I do like old skool) this has implications far and wide. Diddy was doing the Epstien thing on steroids (that super strong stuff, not just d-bol) and if he talks it will take down the entire rap industry along with several PROMINENT politicians. Even if you hate the music follow this story. Just trust me on this one.

🚨 #BREAKING: Sean “Diddy” Combs has been placed on SUlClDE WATCH, per PEOPLE

This comes just as Diddy’s bail was denied for a 2nd time

Coincidentally, Jeffrey Epstein, who was in the custody of the same jailers who current hold Diddy, “committed su*cide” just days after being… pic.twitter.com/QIrVhLZKQf

A sad and terrible truth to this war? Whenever you see the allies step up donations and get pressed to release the use of their weapons deeper into Russia then you know that Ukraine is ONCE AGAIN on the brink.

This war has been terribly managed.  What irks me is that there is no desire to properly manage its end.

They're gonna guarantee Trump's election with this madness

 

We are in a dangerous time.  When politics in the USA becomes weaponized to such an extent that you have active assassination attempts aimed at one party's candidate then you have to expect the OTHER party to come under attack.

Additionally you can see this type of activity go further down the ballet.

I don't know what needs to be done to "chill things out" but someone, somewhere better get on it with a quickness before things SPIRAL TO A PLACE NO ONE WANTS IT TO GO!

Ukraine’s Magnificent but Misguided Kursk Incursion

 via National Interest

“It is magnificent, but it is not war. It is madness,” French Marshal Pierre Bosquet said of the futility and reckless bravery of the charge of the British Light Brigade against a fortified Russian position during the Crimean War. With little exaggeration, much the same could be said of Kyiv’s invasion of the Russian province of Kursk a month ago.

Somebody here knows. WTF did he do to land in the brig?

 

MCRD SD SgtMaj in the Brig
byu/xIXI_ANGEL_IXIx inUSMC

Seen this before but the dude was simply handed back to Regiment and they did their thing without notice. This one is out in the open big time. Someone here knows. WTF did he do?

Yes I remember 9/11. Yes I mourn. But when are we gonna have that hard national talk...

 Read the headline so let's get to it.  When are we gonna have that hard national talk.

1.  The terrorist didn't cross the border.  They arrived as international students.

We hear all the talk about the terrorist that come across unvetted but we have MILLIONS of international students from so called threat nations.  TO BE SPECIFIC we call China a threat and they're basically subsidizing the salaries of many professors in our hard sciences.  

When are we gonna tighten security there especially when it proved to be the source of our greatest vulnerability now and possibly into the future?

2.  We saw two building hit.  Then they suddenly erupt in fire and collapse?  I've seen too many conspiracy theories.  We need a solid explanation of what happened and every theory answered in detail.

3.  I need a run down of how 12 terrorists started two wars and thousands of deaths.  We've seen horrific acts before and wars did not start.  Intense police activity and in this case we would have had world wide efforts to combat terrorism.  Why was the military option chosen, why was Iraq any where on the target list and how did our intel agencies fail to locate Bin Laden for so long.

That's just off the top of the head but while remembering and mourning is important so is getting REAL answers to tough questions.

I don't know about you but we haven't gotten answer from where I'm sitting and I gotta know more.

Hurricane Francine

 

Hurricane Francine is coming.  Doesn't look to be bad at all for Central (where I'm at) or Northern LA, but anything under I-10 is gonna get punched in the face.

Just another day except for standing by on the "Emergency Response Task Force" to see if we gotta help another parish if things go goofy.

Prayers up for the folks down there (except for New Orleans...just kidding toss one up for the freaks there too) but I'm thinking this is gonna be relatively mild compared to what we've seen.
