    Two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies are fighting for their lives after they were shot in an apparent ambush that was captured on video. The pair, a man and a woman, were sitting in their patrol car in Compton when a gunman approached from the side and opened fire before fleeing the scene. Video below: The police need help in identifying the shooter! And as the police reported BLM rioters went to the hospital where deputies are being treated after being ambushed. https://twitter.com/LASDHQ/status/1305039075884187648?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1305073565037858816%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativeus.com%2Fvideos-blm-rioters-went-to-the-hospital-where-deputies-were-being-treated-after-being-ambushed-threaten-police-at-scene-saying-youre-next%2F https://twitter.com/LASDHQ/status/1305073655244677121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1305073655244677121%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativeus.com%2Fvideos-blm-rioters-went-to-the-hospital-where-deputies-were-being-treated-after-being-ambushed-threaten-police-at-scene-saying-youre-next%2F https://twitter.com/LASDHQ/status/1305073750895812611?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1305073750895812611%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativeus.com%2Fvideos-blm-rioters-went-to-the-hospital-where-deputies-were-being-treated-after-being-ambushed-threaten-police-at-scene-saying-youre-next%2F https://twitter.com/LASDHQ/status/1305073750895812611?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1305073750895812611%7Ctwgr%5Eshare_3&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fconservativeus.com%2Fvideos-blm-rioters-went-to-the-hospital-where-deputies-were-being-treated-after-being-ambushed-threaten-police-at-scene-saying-youre-next%2F There are videos where they treat the police saying you’re next, and celebrating the...
  • DEMINT: How A Big Blue Lie Fueled A Summer Of Riots

    Daily Caller ^ | Jim Demint
    Protestors protest for lots of reasons – against injustice, to give a voice to the voiceless, or to speak truth to power. But mobs riot and loot because they think they can get away with it — or possibly, as some news reports suggest, someone is paying them to create chaos. Or maybe it’s simply because they have a leftist celebrity or Biden staffer on hand to pay their bail. The United States this summer has endured the most sustained episode of mob violence – looting, arson, organized property destruction, assault, even murder – in two generations. For weeks, these...

    Oh, boy, do I have a story for you. Who doesn't love Las Vegas? It's America's favorite city. It may be the world's favorite city. It's my adopted hometown for 20 years now. Until recently, I never thought anything, or anyone, could ever destroy Las Vegas. I was wrong. Everyone needs to hear about what's happening here. Las Vegas and the state of Nevada are in deep trouble. Trust me, you're next -- if you put Joe Biden and Democrats in charge of America. What happens in Vegas doesn't stay in Vegas. We are the canary in the coal mine....

    It’s just the flu, bro. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.abc.net.au/article/12650630 I normally mention the lunacy in Australia to show how far western democracies can go to act like tyrants in order to “save people from Corona”. See link above as Chile wins the prize for the biggest idiot of a country today. You can leave the house twice per week if you have a police permit which you obtained online. Flubro seniors will be shocked at this one - they had a total ban on people over 75 going outside their house. This type of control over people is the leftist’s dream. They have...
  • College football winners and losers: Florida State opens the season with another dud

    Just because Florida State hired a new coach it didn’t mean the program’s problems were all of a sudden going to disappear. And that was very apparent as the Mike Norvell era kicked off with a miserable 16-13 loss to Georgia Tech in Tallahassee. Saturday’s loss looked a lot like the two openers the Seminoles played under Willie Taggart — ugly losses that FSU fans have tried to forget. It was more of what we’ve come to expect from Florida State in recent years, especially on offense.

    U.S.A. –-(AmmoLand.com)- Bump stocks have faded from the headlines. Most in the firearms community have been outraged that a federal administrative agency could make such a radical change in the law, as to ban items the agency previously ruled were perfectly legal, without any action by Congress or the President. In the Tenth Circuit, a legal challenge has been percolating. On March 26 of 2018, the BATFE reversed its previous rulings on bump stocks and issued a rule change that bump stocks would be considered automatic firearms. Over half a million bump stocks had been legally sold and owned. The...

    You can’t help but watch human beings and be amazed, sometimes. No other creature has done such incredible or compassionate things. We’ve cured diseases, freed our fellow humans, and gone to the moon and back. Our potential as a species is unlimited. Other times, however, some of our fellow humans are the dumbest group of creatures next to the brainless starfish. These are some examples from the latter in just the last few weeks. Friday was the 19th anniversary of the September 11th terror attacks and “never forget” has turned into “we forgot.” The heroes of that horrible day are...

    After two deputies were shot and left in critical condition Saturday night, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department released surveillance footage that appears to show the shooting in Compton. Three hours after shots were fired, the search for the shooter was ongoing, officials said. The deputies were working with the department’s Transit Services Bureau and sitting inside a patrol vehicle parked near the Blue Line Metro station in Compton when the shooter approached them, according to the department. They were parked along 101 East Palmer St., across from the station, when the gunman came up “from behind” just before 7...

    Thunder shattered the evening quiet and lightning lit up the sky outside my office. I stayed at my computer feeling secure that the surge protector would manage the extra load. Suddenly my screen lit up with a strange message:Speaker Pelosi: This is Mother Earth and you’ve defamed me, something I will not tolerate. This week you said,  “Mother earth is angry. She’s telling us with hurricanes on the Gulf Coast, fires in the West, whatever it is… the climate crisis is real and has an impact.” How dare you speak in my name? How dare you defame me to deflect...

    #1 - Talk to yourself. There are times you need expert advice. #2 - “In Style” are the clothes that still fit. #3 - You don't need anger management. You need people to stop pissing you off. #4 - Your people skills are just fine. It's your tolerance for idiots that needs work. #5 - The biggest lie you tell yourself is, “I don't need to write that down. I'll remember it.” #6 - “On time” is when you get there. #7 - Even duct tape can't fix stupid - but it sure does muffle the sound. #8 - It...

    Metro (U.K.) ^ | Ashley Pemberton
    A DISGRUNTLED painter and decorator who claims he is owed £500 for his work has taken revenge — by daubing a message on the side of the old pub he had worked on. Dean Reeves, 50, wrote in large black letters ‘Want your house painting? Don’t be like Terry, pay the bill! Now you will!’ over the cream exterior he had painted. Dean claims builder Terry Turner paid him just £650 of the £1,150 agreed price for the job and refused to pay the rest until he had done additional work at the site. He claims he worked through his...

    This is the awkward moment a Who Wants To Be A Millionaire contestant was left surprised after a man answered his wife's phone. During Thursday night's episode, player JP Hogan took to the hot seat in a bid to win big - and all seemed to be going in his favour after a strong start. However, the scaffolder-turned-teacher ended up getting stuck at the £8,000 question when asked by host Jeremy Clarkson: "Which of these days is part of the weekend in Germany?" The four possible answers to chose from included Donnerstag, Mittwoch, Sonntag or Dienstag. After admitting his uncertainty...

    Federal authorities on Thursday arrested the police chief and the personnel director of Bridgeport, Conn., on charges of fraud, alleging the two rigged the process that led to the chief's hiring in 2018. The FBI and Department of Justice said in a statement that the police chief, Armando Perez, and acting personnel director, David Dunn, are accused of manipulating the police chief examination to ensure Perez would be a finalist for the position and of making false statements to federal agents in the course of their investigation. **SNIP** The complaint says that Dunn hired an outside consultant to assist with...

    Iran said it executed a wrestler Saturday for murdering a man during a wave of anti-government protests in 2018, drawing widespread condemnation and eliciting shock from the International Olympic Committee. Navid Afkari, 27, was executed at a prison in the southern city of Shiraz, provincial prosecutor general Kazem Mousavi was quoted as saying on state television's website. Afkari had been found guilty of "voluntary homicide" for stabbing to death Hossein Torkman, a water department employee, on August 2, 2018, the judiciary said. Shiraz and several other urban centres across Iran had been the scene that day of anti-government protests and...
