Why do ‘progressives’ want to protect criminals?

by

I can at least understand people who want to help illegal immigrants who have not broken any non-immigration-related laws, but who on God’s earth would want to protect the criminals? Well, apparently the Democrats do! From the New York Post, with a hat tip to William Teach: NYC’s sanctuary DAs ordered prosecutors to downgrade charges …

This is how all murderers should be sentenced!

by

Life in prison without the possibility of parole, plus 25 to 36 more years for other crimes!

“It’s not fair,” the convicted murderer said, after he was sentenced! To me, the only unfair thing is that not all murderers are sentenced the way he was.

A jury found Miguel Salguero-Olivares guilty of first-degree murder, rape, sexual offense and burglary in the 2012 killing of Faith Hedgepeth, a UNC-Chapel Hill student and North Carolina native. He faces multiple sentences, including life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Shane Seiber isn’t the only Philly cop killed by Larry Krasner’s stupid policies

by

We have previously noted the shooting of two Philadelphia police officers, one of whom, officer Shane Seiber, died from his wounds. The apprehended suspect, Eric Lewis, had a previous criminal record, but all misdemeanors, which did not prohibit from owning a firearm. Then came the later news: Mr Lewis had previously been charged with murder, …

Why do they always look like this?

The victim’s mother found out about the suspect’s (alleged) attempts at grooming a minor girl for sex, tried to get it stopped, yet she (allegedly) continued anyway.

Creepy softball coach groomed teen player, even after mom tried to intervene: cops

By David DeTurris | Tuesday, October 20, 2026 | 3:49 AM EDT

A Georgia teacher allegedly groomed a 15-year-old girl whose softball team she coached, and continued preying on the minor even after the teen’s mother tried to intervene, according to a warrant.

You know what I don’t understand?

I don’t understand how criminals can be so boneheadedly Stupid. There is no publicly available information on what course of study Barak Steelmon was pursuing at the University of Kentucky, but I suspect that if he was attempting to become a rocket scientist or brain surgeon, if the allegations against him are true, he might …

You in a heap o’ trouble, boy!

David Harris noted concerning a former principal that he went “From celebrating someone’s murder to possessing some of the most vile material imaginable.” We have recently been noting that when someone is, in the immortal words of Colonel Batguano in Dr Strangelove,” a “deviated prevert” in one thing, there is a high probability that he …

The Cornell case will never feel like justice, to anyone, but there are some things that the laws simply cannot address.

It’s perhaps telling that Amanda Marcotte’s old Twitter biography photo was taken in a bar, and that it advertises Bud Light, though it does predate the Dylan Mulvaney s(tuff).
We suggested, on September 30th, that perhaps the very lovely Amanda Marcotte had learned something from her full-throated accusations against the Duke lacrosse team in 2006, that jumping the gun wasn’t necessarily the wisest thing to do. It took her until October 2nd to weigh in on the case:

In 2017, the #MeToo movement took the nation by storm. A veritable flood of women, and some men, spoke out about their own experiences with sexual abuse, leading to a slew of firings, lawsuits, arrests and social opprobrium of the accused, especially since so many accusers produced compelling evidence. Despite this, it was barely weeks before the backlash began, with countless articles about how #MeToo had gone “too far,” despite scant evidence that innocent men were getting entangled. That response swelled until it overcame #MeToo, which has largely faded into the background.

The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain!

by

As both of my website’s regular readers know, I am opposed to capital punishment. We should not kill anyone unless it is absolutely necessary, and if we have a prisoner securely and permanently confined, to the point he is unable to resist his execution, then he is sufficiently helpless enough that it is no longer …

Why would the honest people of Philly want to help keep criminals on the streets?

by

Is it really any surprise that the City of Brotherly Love, the good people thereof who have thrice elected the George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating defense attorney Larry Krasner to be the chief criminal prosecutor just don’t like the laws being enforced? Philly tells federal court the Trump administration can’t force it to collaborate with …

The left are all for strict law enforcement . . . against whites, police, and Republicans. Against others? Not so much.

by

We have previously noted The Philadelphia Inquirer’s far left columnist Will Bunch and his adamant support for the rule of law. Mr Bunch even wrote that he did not “like” President Biden’s final flurry of pardons “at all,” though he claimed that “they were understandable” to protect critics of then-incoming President Trump. Clearly, Mr Bunch …

Is any murder sentence fair if the killer can get out of jail while his victim is still dead?

by

We first noted Zaakir McClendon in August of 2025, when he was finally arrested for the 2022 murder of Nicolas Elizalde and 2023 murder of Nafis Betrand-Hill. I had to use the mugshot of young Mr McClendon, tweeted by Steve Keeley, because the newspaper declined to publish it. The neck tattoo means automatically guilty. It’s …

Hold Them Accountable!

by

We reported on Tuesday how many law enforcement agencies in Kentucky were cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and now we’re seeing some of the same in the Keystone State. The activists are, of course, thoroughly incensed: “We don’t need our local police enforcing federal law. It is not their job and has proven time …

Michigan Adds Another Felony Because You Used an iPhone

by

I learned something while sitting on a Michigan jury that sent me down one hell of a rabbit hole: Michigan can separately criminalize using a computer to commit a crime. In 2026, when your phone, truck, watch, bank, doorbell and possibly your toaster are computers, that starts sounding suspiciously like an enhancement for breathing oxygen while committing a crime.

A homosexual activist named Randon Sprinkle? I just had to check, but as far as I could find, it is his real name.

Ex Democratic staffer sentenced to 10 years for distribution of child sexual abuse material

Dear Lexington gang-bangers: imitating Killadelphia isn’t a good idea.

Did I jinx the city of Lexington? The Lexington Herald-Leader reported Saturday afternoon that: (This) was the third weekend in a row for fatal shootings in Lexington, after six months when no homicides were reported. I noted, on August 14th: Lexington, Kentucky, current population 329,791, has seen four murders so far in 2026. Philly has …

At some point it has to be asked: how stupid can people be?

by

The Lexington Police went from saying Sunday morning that they “have no updates” on the mass shooting at Charles Young Park to the (alleged) shooter being in jail Sunday evening. I suppose that’s the kind of thing the police do to not alert the suspect that they are hot on his heels.

18-year-old arrested, charged with murder and assault after shooting at Lexington park

By Valarie Honeycutt Spears | Monday, August 17, 2026 | 4:34 AM EDT | Updated: 9:09 AM EDT

An 18-year-old man was arrested Sunday and charged with killing one and injuring four in a mass shooting, according to the Lexington Police Department.

No, of course the Lexington Herald-Leader did not publish the suspect’s mugshot, but WLKY did, and one of my electronic friends tweeted it out to the world.

Killadelphia

by

Our Killadelphia posts have decreased in frequency since the bad old days of 2021 and 2022, and naturally the city’s George Soros-sponsored, criminal-loving and police-hating District Attorney, Larry Krasner, claims that his policies are working, but it’s never a surprise when one killing leads to another in the City of Brotherly Love. Shooting of Philly …
