CHICAGO – Four separate shootings took place in the span of 90 minutes Friday evening in Chicago, the first coming less than an hour after Air Force One departed O’Hare Airport after President Obama spoke on the culture of gun violence and economic decay that plagues many cities, including his hometown.
Four people were wounded on the streets of Chicago’s South and West sides between 5:55 p.m. and 7:20 p.m. Friday, the Chicago Tribune reported. The president was airborne shortly after 5 p.m.
An hour earlier, Obama wrapped up a personal speech at Hyde Park Academy on the South Side, where he mourned the killing of Hadiya Pendleton, the teen who visited Washington for his inauguration just a week before she was gunned down not far from the school. “This is not just a gun issue. It’s also an issue of the kinds of communities that we’re building, and for that we all share a responsibility as citizens to fix it,” he said. (more…)
George Zimmerman is in the crosshairs, but only momentarily and incidentally. Zimmerman is a political product, a product to be used as as a specific example to the rest of the cultural nation who refuse to bow to the alter of the BGI collective.
Most of the things we are freaked about today were fully fatal 13 months, or 13 years ago: George Zimmerman’s situation caused many to notice a growing lump on our neck. The cancer was already killing us. The lump on the side of our neck really isn’t just a bother because it makes our shirt collars sit funny. The cancer was metastasized long before we noticed that the shirt was sitting funny and wouldn’t button right. We should have figured out by now that the shirt is not the problem. The bump on the side of our neck is not the problem. The color of the shirt is certainly not the problem.
The problem is metastasized malignancy.
Refusing to deal with that is a choice, and refusal to make a choice in light of the facts (for fear of the unknowns that lie beyond the choice) is also a choice. It’s all connected……
…”Moreover, if the EEOC claims that “criminal record exclusions have a disparate impact based on race and national origin” why should an employer suffer the consequences of faulty decisions made by individuals?”…
Back in December we discussed a decision in New Jersey where on September 19, 2012, the Newark, New Jersey Municipal Council passed Ordinance 12-1630, “which limits employers’ ability to conduct criminal background checks.” The ordinance went into effect November 18, 2012 and “prevents employers with five or more employees who do business, employ persons or take applications for employment in the City of Newark, from asking applicants about their criminal history.” (more…)
The Daily Mail has a good roundup of the last moments of Chris Dorner here. Additionally, it does appear the “intent” was to burn him out of the cabin from the sounds and directions of the SWAT team around the building. (video below) But is that really an issue?
Given the fact fugitive Dorner was firing at them, it does not appear they had any option other than to engage with force to stop being shot at. Hence the flaw in comparing this event to Waco when the FBI/ATF had the option to wait. Am I missing something?

[…] According to one report, furious SWAT officers shouted ‘burn that f****** house down!’ before the cabin went up in flames. (more…)
It’s always OK when the left-wing praises shooters and killers. CNN Race-based contributor and Columbia Professor Marc Lamont Hill reflects on Chris Dorner and shows the blatent racism of the collective black socio-political ideology.
New Verb: Trayvonned. When a guilty thug is killed and the good guys are made out to be bad guys. Usage: Chris Dorner got Trayvonned.

The very, very end of the video is also a peek into the mindset of the uber-left world of race driven progs. Listen as someone says “but it’s not ok” [regarding Dorners kill spree] and Lamont waxingly says “meh”…
UPDATE: Feb 13th: Police issue a statement this morning affirmatively confirming that “charred remains” were recovered from the smoking cinders of the cabin in the mountains at Angelus Oaks, CA. The remains will be positively ID’d through DNA analysis and dental records matching, states the San Bernandino Sheriff’s Dept, which has jurisdiction in this incident.
The British media are reported on purported recordings of the police scanner in which the police discuss burning the cabin deliberately as a planned strategy to force Dorner to leave and/or perish in the cabin.
Police say they have no idea on Dorner status. They “hope” his body is inside the cabin (video)
CRISPY CRITTER FOUND? Update 10:05 pm ET: Body removed from cabin believed to be Dorner’s, ABC News reports.
11:06 pm ET: LAPD spokesperson states at a live press conference that the recovery of a body, if any, has not been confirmed and/or ID’d. States cabin is still to hot to search properly. Affirms jurisdiction is with the San Bernandino Sheriff’s office, not LAPD. LAPD still on tactical alert. Any remains recovered could take “weeks” to positively ID with DNA or dental records analysis.
LA Times reports on Dorner’s purported last moments:
A single gunshot was heard as authorities moved into the cabin where Christopher Dorner was believed to be holed up.
According to a law enforcement source, police had broken down windows, pumped in tear gas and blasted a loud speaker urging Dorner to surrender. When they got no response, police deployed a vehicle to rip down the walls of the cabin “one by one, like peeling an onion,” a law enforcement official said.
By the time they got to the last wall, authorities heard a single gunshot, the source said. Then flames began to spread through the structure, and gunshots, probably set off by the fire, were heard…
[Updated at 8:07 p.m. ET] More details on the authorities’ recent assault on the cabin, which is on fire: It’s not clear whether the suspect is still in the cabin, but the area is surrounded by law enforcement personnel, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Cindy Bachman said.

First I find out police are shooting the paper ladies across the street from my old apartment building, now I find out the subject of their attention has been shopping not far from my house. Wow…how lucky can one Treeper get? (Looks out back window to see if drone is circling overhead….)
In the video below, Dorner appears to be laughing and chatting up the unknowing salesclerk. And, as always, he’s got that characteristic grin plastered on his face. He’s got to know he’s on a surveillance camera somewhere…..could this all be a decoy attempt? He (allegedly) tried to steal a boat in San Diego last week, now US Marshals say there is “probable cause to believe” Dorner has traveled to Mexico; however, there are no confirmed sightings… as yet.
In still another nauseating turn of events, a Facebook page entitled “I support Christopher Jordan Dorner”, has sprouted up with almost 16,000 likes from his sick supporters. “I love how the LAPD says ‘we will not stand for this reign of terror’ when they are the ones acting like terrorists,” one commenter wrote. O.J. Simpson 2.0…. 👿
I’m not sure who this guy is, but y’all need to listen to the way he frames the conversation. Finally someone puts the argument into perspective, AND as a bonus he hits on the law enforcement “affirmative responsibility” aspect to deconstruct the liberal fallacy.
Excellent – Must Watch Interview:
Last month 23-year old twin sisters and two other unrelated women were found shot to death in an apartment complex in Tulsa Oklahoma. Rebeika Powell (left) and Kayetie Melchor were among four women found dead inside an Oklahoma apartment on Jan. 7, 2013 after an apparent daylight shooting in a crime-scarred south Tulsa neighborhood. The 23-year-old twins were discovered along with the bodies of 33-year-old Misty Nunley and 55-year-old Julie Jackson.

“In God We Trust, In All Others We Question/Research”
(HatTip CajunKelly) Why is there a difference between the bullet hole (count and location) still shot photographs printed in the media, and the video at the scene? Clearly there is a visible difference. Look at the left side tailgate (example). Why would there be MORE bullet holes in the video, than in the printed/published photographs?
