Earlier in the week we shared with you the story of a large riot in Tampa Florida at the state fair.   Now the County Sheriff, David Gee, is coming under fire for sending a letter to members of his appointed Black Advisory Council for help.

The Black community is outraged the sheriff would have the audacity to point out the identical racial profiles of the people involved in the riot.   How dare he….

TAMPA (FOX 13) – New video released Tuesday by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office shows  the start of what would become a massive stampede of rowdy students at the  Florida State Fair that led to dozens of ejections and several arrests.

The video was shot by a vendor and handed over to investigators as they try  to identify victims and make more arrests in connection to the organized  stampede known as “wilding.”

“It’s more of a giant stampede, and that’s kind of the beginning of it that  you see on that video,” explained Col. Jim Previtera. “It does give a brief  glimpse of what ‘wilding’ looks like.”

[…]   Sheriff David Gee, meanwhile, sent a letter to leaders in the African  American community, asking for their help. (more…)

A recent review of another Washington Post article discussing Attorney General Eric Holder’s goal to reinstate voting rights of convicted felons shows an odd progressive disconnect. 

Essentially, the post article outlines the goal is really to get black Democrats their right to vote in key swing states.    {Insert a generically obtuse “DUH” sound here}   But what strikes as odd is the unspoken reality:

Holy smokes more than 20% of black people have committed felonies ?

(Washington Post)  Reason Why Holder Suddenly Wants Felons To Vote: More Than 20% of Blacks In Swing States Can’t Vote Because They’ve Been Convicted of a Felony.

In Florida, more than one in five black adults can’t vote. Not because they lack citizenship or haven’t registered, but because they have, at some point, been convicted of a felony.

The Sunshine State’s not alone. As in Florida, more than 20 percent of black adults have lost their right to vote in Kentucky and Virginia, too, according to the Sentencing Project, a group that advocates for reforms to sentencing policy that reduces racial disparities. (more…)

The Curious Case of Ms. Rahinah Ibrahim

The story around the detention of Rahinah Ibrahim is so astounding a person of normal cognitive capacity might be unable to actually comprehend it.    She was stopped, detained, searched, hand-cuffed and then placed on a no-fly list back in 2005.   She sued the U.S. government to find out why:

After seven years of litigation, two trips to a federal appeals court and $3.8 million worth of lawyer time, the public has finally learned why a wheelchair-bound Stanford University scholar was cuffed, detained and denied a flight from San Francisco to Hawaii: FBI human error. (link)

The Error:  An FBI agent/investigator named Kevin Kelly was investigating Muslims in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2004 when he mistakenly checked the wrong box on a terrorism form, erroneously placing Rahinah Ibrahim on the no-fly list.   Kelly simply checked the wrong box on a generic administrative form.

What followed is almost nine years of *EXTREME* governmental denial, by some of the biggest well known names in DOJ, NSA, and Homeland Security.   They, on behalf of the U.S. government, used every national security avoidance argument, all of it, all.of.it, simply to cover-up a simple clerical mistake.

21-year-old Tayvon Martin shot three people, killing one, last year.    He had been on the run for over nine months and was caught/arrested recently after he returned back to the Denver Colorado area.

However, within the manner of murder you find an almost unbelievable irony, wrapped in apropos and topped with a bow sprinkled with metaphor.

Before being killed, the murder victim was asked a question:

“Do You Know Who Baby B.O Is” ?

(referencing the statement by President Obama about having a son who would look like Trayvon Martin)

That’s when Tayvon Martin stepped up, introduced himself, said “that’s me“, pulled a silver revolver and calmly shot the victim, Gabriel Scott, in the back of the head. (more…)

Good enough for me but not for thee.   

Chicago has the most restrictive gun laws in the nation – of course the thugs were surprised, they don’t normally encounter armed resistance because their victims are barred from being allowed to defend themselves.

CHICAGO – A gun pointed at his gut, the off-duty sheriff’s sergeant digs through his pockets with his left hand, fumbling for money, as the three robbers surround him at the Far South Side gas station.

The sergeant is surer with his right hand, quickly drawing his own gun and firing point-blank. The gunman, 16, drops at his feet as the two others scatter, according to surveillance video that captured the robbery Monday night at a Citgo station at 103rd Street and Cottage Grove Avenue, across the street from Gately Stadium.

The sergeant swings around at the fleeing robbers, then points the gun down as the gunman struggles to get up. The video shows the sergeant kicking away the robber’s gun and then opening the passenger door of his own car, apparently to get his phone. (more…)

You won’t see this outside of local news because, yet again, it presents an uncomfortable reality.

Tampa FL – […] The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office says they called in 60 extra deputies that night from the surrounding area.

“There was a strong presence from the Sheriff’s Office out there, but we were tapped to our limits,” said Colonel Jim Previtera with the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.

Even the extra deputies were overwhelmed.

“We literally had deputies who were out there with no back up engaged in fights. (more…)

Famous for his insufferable naiveté surrounding Trayvon Martin, actor Jamie Fox joins a peace walk in Miami Gardens.   The profound stupidity of the entire fiasco is exemplified in the fact that Trayvon Martin’s father, Tracy “Fruit” Martin, was specifically the one engaged with his son to discuss purchasing a handgun for him. 

…Yet there he is, in the front row, nodding and clapping away !    

The information about Trayvon’s father and guns was hidden from the general public by the media refusing to cover it.  It was discovered during a late night evidentiary proffer hearing when the contents of Trayvon’s phone were being argued as admissible or not.

(Via Truth Revolt)  This past Saturday in Miami Gardens, actor Jamie Foxx helped lead a peace walk through the streets to a local complex where a rally was held in remembrance of Trayvon Martin.  During his remarks, Foxx suggested that gun violence is mostly a problem for black Americans.

“The blood that flows through America that is from gun violence is mostly African-American, and yet you young black folk sit here mute and ya’ll don’t say nothing about it.”

Foxx is not one to shy from controversy. The actor wore a “Know Justice, Know Peace” shirt with Trayvon’s face on it to the 2013 MTV Movie Awards.

HatTip elvischupacabra – WASHINGTON COUNTY A Burleson County Grand Jury declined to indict the man who shot and killed a Burleson County Sheriff’s Deputy who was serving a search warrant in December.

Investigators were executing a search warrant at Henry McGee’s mobile home near Snook when the shooting happened.  News 3 takes a look at why deputies had targeted McGee’s home.

28-year-old Henry Magee is no longer charged in the shooting death of Burleson County Sheriff’s Deputy Adam Sowders.

A grand jury decided there wasn’t enough evidence for him to stand trial on the capital murder charge. (more…)

SNOW SAFARI – A couple of local families decided to take their kids sledding during a school-closed snow day in Georgia.   Pack of 30+ teen thugs pelted one wife and baby with snowballs, jumped on cars, and then quickly launched into frenzied attack mode when told to stop….   Reverse the races and this would be 24/7 CNN News.

WARNER ROBINS — Two teens have been arrested in connection with an attack in front of Warner Robins High School while school was out due to snow.

Shymalik Raekwon Mitchell, 17, of Warner Robins, was arrested Wednesday and charged with aggravated assault, according to a news release from the Warner Robins Police Department.

Terrell Antonio Boyd, 17, also of Warner Robins, was charged with battery. Additional arrests may be pending as the investigation continues, the release said.

According to police, a group of about 30 people were having a snowball fight at the high school Jan. 29. Members of the group allegedly were jumping on vehicles in the parking lot, and when one of the vehicle’s owners asked them to stop, they allegedly attacked that person and three others who came to his aid.

Flashing your headlights to warn other drivers of a speed trap is constitutionally protected speech, said a Missouri judge earlier this week.

You’ve all done it, right?  Say you’re driving down the road and you see this police car lying in wait to pull over some poor sucker.  So, being the nice person you are, you flash your headlights a couple of times to alert the traffic in the opposite direction.   Funny thing though….the police don’t seem to appreciate your kind gesture.   You don’t think they’re annoyed because our warning each other of these speed traps means their police departments make less money? (Sarcasm alert)
