It Seems Self-Defense Is Legal in California

I'm sure the DA hates that. Contra Costa DA Declines to Charge Orinda Shooting Suspect

This is about a road rage incident in September.

The driver passed the 4Runner – which was moving slowly and moving off to the right side of the road — but [Scott] Decker responded by pulling in front of the driver’s car and blocking his path. Decker then exited his vehicle and punched the driver three times in the face while the driver was sitting in his vehicle.

It was the last thing he would do, as the driver was a legal, registered firearms owner, with a concealed carry license in California. He drew a handgun and fired one shot. Scott Decker died at the scene from a gunshot wound to the neck.

Contra Costa County is basically suburban San Francisco. The county line is about 4 miles east of downtown Oakland, or about 12 miles east of downtown San Francisco. The County includes the city Walnut Creek.

Why do I say the DA hates self-defense?

The entire incident was captured on video by a camera in the driver’s vehicle, which he consented to provide to law enforcement.

So with video evidence, that he was attacked, it still took from 12 September 2024, until January 8th for the DA to decide that he couldn't win a prosecution. I believe that any consideration of Justice never entered into the decision. DAs like to win, and the hate legal self-defense, especially in Blue States.

NYC Transit Chief Says Crime Is in Your Head

Nothing to see here. Move along. If Janno Lieber thinks gaslighting New Yorkers will fix the subways, it's in his own head

A dismissive MTA boss Janno Lieber said, “Some of these high-profile incidents, you know, terrible attacks have gotten in people’s heads and made the whole system feel unsafe.” ...

Last year, there were 11 murders on the subway, according to Manhattan Institute – the most of the 21st Century. By the grace of God, it wasn’t 12 after an innocent man was pushed in front of a train by 23-year-old Kamel Hawkins on New Years Eve.

All the PR stunts of Governor Hochul riding the subway, with her armed security, to "prove" how wonderful it is, won't change reality.

But I'm writing about Democrats; they never worry about reality.

Denial won’t fix the trains.

The thing is, they don't want to fix the trains, or anything else.

And in a bit of delicious irony... Congestion pricing advocate attacked at NYC subway station — as new $9 toll pushes people into mass transit

Layla Law-Gisiko, president of the City Club of New York, which sued Gov. Kathy Hochul to implement the unpopular toll for motorists driving into Manhattan, said she was left bruised and battered after the Saturday afternoon attack at the 23rd Street station.

She wanted everyone to ride transit. Maybe they should have worked on crime first.

California on Fire

The Other McCain brings us signs of hope, at least in as much as a change in the political winds. Hollywood Getting Red-Pilled?

They say a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged. Hollywood may fit that bill. The wealthy are usually insulated from the impacts of insane liberal policies. That is certainly not true in this case. Maybe they will stop pushing the insanity on the rest of the population.

The tragic devastation — the most damaging wildfire in California history — may be an inflection point in American politics, like the 1968 Tet offensive or the 1979 Iran hostage crisis. Everybody with two eyes could see what Jillian Michaels mentioned, that Gavin Newsom has been positioning himself for a White House run in 2028, and this wildfire was the event that caused them to speak out and warn America: “You do not want to elect this guy!” If I were J.D. Vance, I’d be scheduling a visit to Southern California.

Some very liberal people are pissed off at Gavin Newsom and company. And since they have lost everything, they will not be forgetting soon.

10 Best Selling Semi-Automatic Rifles

This turned up in my regular news searches the past week. These Are America’s Best-Selling Semi-Automatic Rifles

An interesting list, though I would have grouped the data in a different way.

America's gun market is booming, and the most popular firearms tell us a lot about what's going on in the nation. Certain gun companies are consistently topping the sales charts. Such data provides useful information for investing in defense stocks. The types of guns people buy may provide insights into contemporary events. A sudden rise in popularity for a particular rifle, for example, can sometimes reflect growing tensions at home and overseas. In addition, America's gun industry plays a big role in politics. The most popular rifles can illustrate the power of manufacturing companies and how they influence our culture and decision-making.

The list includes two varieties of AR-15, one from Colt and one from Springfield. One version of an AK is on the list, from Zastava. I wonder what this list would look like if they put all AR-15s in 1 bucket, and all AK variants in another. IWI's Tavor and the FNH SCAR Series are both on the list. I won't spoil what is the Number One selling rifle. It isn't too surprising. (I owned one when I was much younger.)

Self-Defense Is Legal in North Carolina

I suspected that it was. Zebulon Shop-N-Go convenience store: Store clerk who shot man in Johnston County won't face charges - ABC11 Raleigh-Durham

Given that this incident happened at the beginning of November, I would say the DA made this determination fairly quickly.

Zebulon, North Carolina is about a 30 minute drive east of Raleigh.

Brown reportedly tried to break into several cars parked outside, threatened a customer in the parking lot, and physically fought with the clerk before the shooting.

The sheriff's office presented all the evidence to the Johnston County district attorney, who made the decision not to file any charges.

A store clerk was killed in that store in 2016, and a 2nd person injured. I would say that they have a vested interest in being armed in self-defense.

Self-defense is a human-right.

Universal Basic Income Doesn't Work

Lawrence Person's BattleSwarm Blog brings us the following on Universal Basic Income, or UBI. UBI Hurts Recipients

It’s almost impossible to kill a bad lefty idea, and Universal Basic Income is one of the worst. The idea that government agencies should fork over taxpayer dollars to random people for breathing goes against the basic American ethos of freedom and hard work, so naturally lefties are in love with the idea as it being a down-payment on full-bore socialism. But it’s been tried, and failed, many times before, so much so that Charles Murray’s Losing Ground: American Social Policy 1950-1980 back in 1984 covered the colossal failure of the SIME/DIME experiments back on pages 148-152.

But mere historical failure has never deterred the radical left from pursuing their utopian schemes (“And the burnt Fool’s bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire“), so they tried to test UBI, yet again, and the result, yet again, was discouraging failure.

Progressives chooses "What sounds good" over "What has been proven to work" every time. This is another incident. Click thru for the details.

Sultan Knish - Don’t Take the Train

The subway was always a metaphor for New York City. Its trains rushing between the depths of tunnels and the heights overlooking busy streets linked a bewildering city into one whole. Over a hundred years ago, Joyce Kilmer sketched the subway as a collection of “tired clerks, pale girls, street cleaners, business men, boys, priests and harlots, drunkards, students, thieves” thundering “through the dark”, but the balance of power has shifted away from the clerks, girls, boys and business men, over to the drunkards, thieves, along with the killers and the monsters.

Multiple callers reported Hampton “attempting to enter vehicles and buildings on their properties prior to him being shot,” troopers spokesman Tim DeSpain said in an email Tuesday. Troopers responded to those calls but Hampton fled before they could contact him, DeSpain said.

At the last place he tried to break in, he was shot.

Asked if Hampton was shot by a homeowner during an active break-in, DeSpain said the circumstances of the shooting are part of the ongoing investigation and everyone involved is cooperating.

The DA is still considering the incident.

NYC Emergency Workers Don't Want to Pay Congestion Toll

Politicians never believe that their plans will have unintended consequences, even though they always do. NYC emergency workers set to leave Midtown, Lower Manhattan as congestion pricing begins

Need an ambulance in Manhattan? You might be out of luck soon.

Nearly 300 FDNY Emergency Medical Service workers say they’re ready to leave Midtown and Lower Manhattan, citing the financial burden congestion pricing will put on their costs of living, their union announced ahead of the toll program’s Sunday start.

Like all NYC workers, members of FDNY Local 2507, representing the city’s 4,100 emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and paramedics, are not exempt from the MTA’s $9 base toll into Manhattan south of and including 60th Street. As a result, the union is urging its approximately 270 EMTs and paramedics assigned to the area to transfer out as soon as possible.

Click thru for more details.

I haven't looked at EMS in New York City specifically, or not any time recently, but NYC has been experiencing an increase in 911 response time on both the police and fire side of that equation. This is not likely to help.

Hat tip to Meep at STUMP: Taxing Tuesday: Congestion Pricing Comes to NYC, Finally.

It would be interesting if in attempting to fund the MTA, the state has just made it more expensive to staff the city of New York.

I'm not sure why anyone wants to either live or work in NYC these days. Taxes are high, and just recently went higher with the "congestion pricing." Crime is out of control. Prices are going up because of organized shoplifting, and stores are closing for the same reason. But the difference of opinion makes a horse race.

Can the Reform UK Party Succeed?

Nigel Farage v Elon Musk. Maybe not quite. Nigel Farage Wants to ‘Mend Broken Fences’, Vows To Try to ‘Build Bridges’ With Elon Musk After Row Over Anti-Grooming Gangs Activist Tommy Robinson’s Imprisonment

Nigel Farage has some vision, but he still too concerned about being polite to fight the fight in front of him.

Musk was deeply critical of Farage, and called for him to be replaced, claiming he “doesn’t have what it takes”, after the Reform UK leader distanced himself from the support for anti-Muslim grooming gangs activist Tommy Robinson.

Farage doesn't think Tommy Robinson is right for Reform UK, because he is too crass, too confrontational. That whole "let's not upset community relations, let's not be confrontational" attitude is what let thousands of British girls get raped. For details see this post. The Wrong Kind of Crime for Media, Politicians, or Police to Take Notice

For his part Farage has stated he would like to meet with Musk and see if they have common ground. As noted, that's a fairly adult attitude.

The Rest of the Story

The Other McCain brings us the details that most journalists can't be bothered about today. His Ex-Girlfriend Was Driving the Bus

First you need to know about the Los Angeles DASH buses. DASH stands for Downtown Area Short Hop. This incident involved a domestic dispute between a bus driver and her ex-boyfriend.

You should also note that Maserati does not sell cheap cars, though they don't all cost a quarter of a million bucks.

Are you driving a Maserati? Because I know that I’m not driving a Maserati.

It really is quite an interesting story, and I haven't even watched the videos. (Apparently the dash camera and body camera footage was recently released by LAPD.)

My favorite part of the video is at the beginning, where they play recordings of 911 calls, and you hear the dispatcher repeating what the caller has just told her, to confirm that she’s got the correct information: “A Maserati is chasing the DASH bus?” Like, you’re kidding me?

And yet we are still being told - though more people are laughing at those doing the telling - that only by sticking to the legacy, mainstream media are we sure of getting the complete story. The truth is that the legacy media almost never gives us the whole story.

More on the Cop Shooting a Homeowner Over a Weed Eater

Liberty Doll has more information on this incident than I had when I wrote my initial post.

In particular, it seems that the weed eater, along with one other item, was "owned" by a judge. Not really, but they were taken from the judge's home.

Local media is trying to get information, but the courthouse is claiming that "they don't have the paperwork," which has been submitted. The cops are just not saying anything.

You can find my previous post on this incident at this link: Cops Get Another Address Wrong, Kill Another Homeowner

This is Liberty Doll's video Cops Shoot Gun Owner Over Weed Eater. It's an 8 minute video.

I'm Shocked That People Game the System

Governor Hochul would have you believe that congestion pricing was good for New Yorkers. Turns out it is good for some companies. Uber, Lyft spent millions pushing for NYC congestion pricing —and stand to make killing

Uber and Lyft poured millions of dollars into efforts to legalize congestion tolling — and they stand to be among the biggest winners.

Uber spent $2 million alone from 2015 to 2019 to promote congestion pricing, roughly $1 million of which went to some of the city’s top lobbyists, the company confirmed to The Post in 2019.

Since then, both and Uber and Lyft have continued to hire top lobbyists to help persuade key state and city officials to approve the controversial levy, including Gov. Kathy Hochul and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, records show.

Click thru for the details.

And I'm not shocked in the least.

Soft-on-Crime NYC Sees Rise in Repeat Offenders

Is anyone shocked that a lack of consequences does not change behavior? NYC sees 'staggering' 146.5% spike in felony assaults by repeat offenders

Felony assaults surged to 29,417 in 2024, with NYPD brass blaming liberal Albany law enforcement reforms fueling a “revolving door” of justice that sees accused criminals back on the street and free to commit more crimes.

“That is what we’re up against,” Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch told reporters at a briefing Monday. “And we know why. The key driving factor is the revolving door of our criminal justice system, created in large part by legislative changes that took effect in 2020.”

Assault isn't the only crime where recidivism is on the rise.

In 2024, the Big Apple also saw a 61.3 % increase in repeat burglary offenders, and 83.3 % spike in robbery recidivists, Tisch said.

Crime in NYC, and in a lot of the Blue Cities, does pay.

See this post from 2023: Safety as the Bedrock of Civilization. There is an interview with an NYC resident, Reihan Salam, in which he discusses the corrosive effect violence has on society. There is also a link to my take on Hobbes' Leviathan, as usual.

Are You Still Worried Someone Will Call You a Name?

The Other McCain brings us another update on the current UK Scandal, or is that the former scandal that was swept under the rug? Vindicated: Britain’s ‘Grooming Gangs’ Finally Get the Attention They Deserve

To be clear, "Grooming Gangs" is polite-speak for Rape Gangs.

Because Elon Musk decided to remind people of the role that Britain’s Labour Party played in the “grooming gang” scandal, suddenly millions of people who never knew about the scandal — particularly in the United States — are talking about this as if it were breaking news. And while I suppose I should be grateful that this gruesome tale is finally getting the attention it deserves, excuse me for asking: Where were these people 10 or 15 years ago, when I was frequently calling attention to this?

Click thru for some history on the situation, and some links to the current updates.

Are you still worried about being called names? That worry stopped the UK government - from cops, to social workers, to politicians - from stopping thousands of girls being raped.

Texans May Be Armed, But We All Need Practice

It's expensive to spend time at the range, but you won't be accurate without practice. UPDATE: Details emerge in Graham Road shooting

A Corpus Christi, Texas homeowner confronted a stranger in his backyard. The stranger "advanced" with an unknown object in his hand.

The homeowner who said he feared for his safety as well as the safety of his family, retrieved a firearm and shot at the suspect.

Shot at the suspect. Not "shot the suspect."

The suspect fled the scene and it is unknown if he was injured or not. K9 officers, CCPD Drone Operators and CCFD Drone Operators conducted an extensive search. Local hospitals and emergency rooms were contacted but the suspect was not found.

Perhaps he will, after changing his shorts, meditate on the fact that he could have been killed.

Self-defense is a human right, and this didn't take place in New York.
