At this point there’s enough circumstantial evidence and background on the shooter Matt Apperson to accept his weird behavioral instability as an attempt to gain fame/notoriety by killing George Zimmerman.  Surely if the physical evidence lines up with Zimmerman’s account the State Attorney will charge…
Do you think Matt Apperson will be charged? 
Lake Mary, FL – […] Don West, who helped defend Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin murder trial in 2013 is now helping Zimmerman press charges against Matthew Apperson, who called 911 on Monday, claiming that he shot at Zimmerman’s SUV.

West said the shooting happened during lunch hour on a very busy Lake Mary Boulevard.
“In some respects it’s the classic depraved, hard, kind of reckless disregard for everyone’s life including Mr. Zimmerman’s,” West said.   (more…)

On Monday a man assaulted two people in New York with a hammer.
The first victim was a 28-year-old woman struck in the head while she was sitting on a park bench in Union Square. Moments later, he allegedly hit a 33-year-old woman in the head as she was walking down the street. Both victims were treated for their head injuries and released, according to the NYPD.  (media story)
Today, two NYPD officers were following a man who fit the description of the hammer attacker, when this happened: (more…)

If, like many of us, you are deep in the weeds in your understanding of the issues around Benghazi, the 2010 Arab Spring (Tunis, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Bahrain, Yemen), or the CIA operation “Zero Footprint” in Libya and the follow-up operation in Syria, you will enjoy this interview with former Panetta/Petraeus replacement Mike Morell.
Or, if you have a cursory understanding of events, this interview might spur you toward further research.  “The Benghazi Brief” – Regardless of your current level of understanding behind events of the past 7+ years, this interview is well constructed.
Bret Baier has done his homework, and in a refreshing and surprising manner you can see how Baier is able to cut through the distracting ‘talking points’ (no pun intended), and draw out the reality of what lies behind Morell and his foundational motives.

MARYLAND – Ten people were reported shot in Baltimore on Sunday, including three fatal shootings that occurred within a span of about two blocks in Northwest Baltimore..

The shootings continued a recent wave of violence. The 10 shootings were the second such occurrence in four days, after 10 people were also shot Thursday.
At least 86 people have been killed in Baltimore this year, 21 more than this time last year, while non-fatal shootings are up nearly 50 percent across the city. (more…)

I can’t watch Sean Hannity any longer. His interview (‘interuptus’) style has deteriorated so much in the past two years that his show seems to be nothing but abject anxiety, and horrible one-dimensional punditry. Sean Hannity may have a good heart, and he might be a great guy, but his current TV disposition is nothing more than a modern day Morton Downy Jr. sans the cigarettes.
However, that said, Pam Geller appeared on his “set-up” last night as Sean welcomed back the prolific and ever controversial Muslim Imam Anjem Choudary. Reports are Choudary advocated for Geller’s demise:

These past few days pundits and politicians have been either vilifying Pamela Geller’s Texas competition to draw the prophet Mohammed, or supporting her first amendment rights.
Greta Van Susteren’s post on Facebook this morning – The First Amendment free speech clause right is key to a democracy, but how one exercises that right is likewise important. Good judgment is important.

..”They Shot That Boy For No Reason !”

Earlier today the police approached a man on the street in Baltimore suspected of carrying a firearm. Before the police could reach him the man took off running. During the pursuit the suspects handgun either fell, or was dropped, as he fled. The suspects gun went off when it hit the ground. Fortunately no-one was hit by the discharge. The man was tackled by the chasing officers and then, out of an abundance of caution, transported via ambulance.
No police officer fired their weapons. No-one was shot. The only firearm discharge was from the fleeing suspect as his firearm hit the ground.
Now watch this video of how a female “eye-witness”, injected her perception of the event, and quickly reported it to the media and enraged the community.  Passionate, angry, tearful and adamant about what she witnessed.
[wpvideo 0Oyl8gXP]
Of course, none of that is true.  Nothing she is describing actually took place.
This should be a case study in how unreliable agenda witness statements actually are.

The New York Police Department officer, Brian Moore, did not survive.  Prayers for him and his family.

Brian Moore was in an unmarked patrol car when he and his partner saw a man on the street adjusting something in the waistband of his pants that appeared to be a gun.  When the officers told the man to stop, he turned, pulled out a gun and began shooting into the police car.  Officer Moore was shot in the face. He was taken to Jamaica Hospital in critical condition and underwent surgery.  He did not survive his injury.
The shooter, Demetrius Blackwell, fled on foot and was later arrested.

NEW YORK – A Queens ex-con was charged with attempted murder Sunday for shooting an undercover NYPD cop in the head, leaving him clinging to life, officials and sources told The Post.
Plainclothes officer Brian Moore, 25, took a turn for the worse early Sunday after surgery to relieve pressure on his brain, and distraught family members were rushing to his side, sources said.
Moore is the fifth NYPD officer to be shot in as many months.
A four-year department veteran from a police family, Moore was driving with his partner by the intersection of 212th Street and 104th Avenue in Queens Village at around 6:15 p.m. Saturday when the incident occurred.
The pair spotted Demetrius Blackwell, whom they knew to have a long police record, said Police Commissioner Bill Bratton.
Blackwell had been fiddling with his waistband, a source said. (more…)
