Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Prosser Attacked

Relax. It’s not what you think.
Recently re-elected Justice Prosser has been attacked in articles claiming that he put a choke hold on a younger, bigger than he, Justice Ann Bradley.

There are different accounts, different claims, by at least three anonymous – but present (?) – individuals. Published by yet another – but is that story accurate and fair?

Rather than try to recap that, I point you to Ann Althouse’s article on this. I trust her more than anyone else on this. It is a very enlightening read with a lot of proper questions, and concerns, that Ann brings to the forefront.

My concern is how far will this go, and who will be vindicated?

Impeach Holder

There appears to be a case to exactly that.

I must say, I agree and it is long past time to do so.

In the fall of 2009, the Department of Justice (DOJ) developed a risky new strategy to combat gun trafficking along the Southwest Border.…The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) implemented that strategy using a reckless investigative technique that street agents call “gunwalking.” ATF’s Phoenix Field Division began allowing suspects to walk away with illegally purchased guns.

This shift in strategy was known and authorized at the highest levels of the Justice Department. Through both the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona and “Main Justice,” headquarters in Washington, D.C., the Department closely monitored and supervised the activities of the ATF.
……
The Department of Justice has repeatedly and steadfastly denied that any guns were walked under Operation Fast and Furious. According to the narrowest possible interpretation, a gun is walked only when an ATF agent physically places an AK-47 into the hands of a straw purchaser and then lets that straw purchaser walk out of sight.

Strong Arming A Citizen Taking Video

Miami Police did it.

After shooting a man to death, they turned their guns on a bystander.

Somehow, the motto “To Protect And Serve” just doesn’t seem right anymore.

Likely the question now is, to serve who? And how?

Not the citizen’s video, but possibly related/same event:

Predator Did It

Top al Qaeda leader Ilyas Kashmiri killed in US Predator strike

The US has killed Ilyas Kashmiri, one of al Qaeda’s most dangerous military commanders and strategists, in a Predator airstrike yesterday in South Waziristan.

Kashmiri is said to be one of nine members of the al Qaeda-linked Harkat-ul Jihad Islami, or HUJI, who were killed in yesterday’s Predator airstrike that leveled a compound in the Wana area of South Waziristan. A Harkat-ul Jihad Islami spokesman told Dawn that Kashmiri was killed in the attack.

DNC – Is This the Best You Can Do?

I mean, really, shouldn’t you vet your candidates for heading up your party, or something?

Sheesh. Get a grip.

Oh, and here’s something from tweedledumber.

UPDATE: Long Past Time To End SWAT Night-time Raids

And no-knocks.

See if you believe this story out of Tucson. And note that after the ambulance shows up, the police keep them from working on the veteran (that they shot 60 times) for an hour.

This is insane. There is no justification for this.

Be sure to let the video keep playing, there’s more similar stories.

UPDATE: Here’s more of a followup. I believe I agree with this assessment:

Only, Guereña never fired his weapon. Awoken by his wife with screams that men with guns were invading his home and threatening his family, Jose Guereña armed himself with a AR-15 rifle and crouched in the hallway. The SWAT team unloaded upon Guereña on sight. He apparently recognized the home invaders as police. He took 60 rounds, but never — as the Pima County Sheriff’s Department was forced to admit — took off his weapon’s safety as he was being killed

Withdraw

Not from the checking account.

From Libya, POTUS. Your 60 days were up. Yesterday.

Oh. A reminder. We got Bin Laden. We can leave Afghanistan now also.

Otherwise, you’re just spending money we don’t have to – just spend money. That we don’t have.

Thugs Unbounded

A summary of Wiscon’s troubles, compared to other states. And a few more tidbits.

Mark June 6 on your calendar for Wisconsin.

I agree with the last statement. The GOP better get its act together and be ready to fight as necessary.

Harassed By Police

Even though in the right, apparently. A little more on that.

And then there’s this. Somebody taking lesson’s from crooks now?

The Bad Guys Keep Coming

In spite of what is claimed by the administration, the Border is much more dangerous than it ever has been.
