Second City Cop

With as many cameras as there are in the big blue $hithole cities, we don't see nearly the amount of footage that the cameras capture, probably because it makes the police look like they aren't the problem :

• Chilling surveillance footage captured the "Wild West" moment an NYPD cop shot a gun-toting maniac who allegedly fired at officers after threatening to shoot up Mount Sinai Hospital.

  The tense clip showed the gunman – 20-year-old Elijah Brown – holding his weapon in his hand as he casually walked on Madison Avenue between East 95th and 96th streets late Thursday after telling a bodega worker he planned to riddle the hospital with bullets.

  As cops approached Brown, he suddenly whipped around and fired at the officers – prompting at least one to return fire from the street, the footage shows.

Hell, it even shows the officers rushing up after shooting the offender and rendering immediate first aid. Nothing wrong with this shooting which is probably why the NY Post is covering it and nobody else is giving it much airplay.

With the demo-socialist being elected, New York City is about to witness first-hand how big de-policing can go :

• Former New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly told Newsmax that New York City should prepare for a smaller police department.

  Kelly told "Saturday Report" that the reason is the mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani. "It looks like Mr. Mamdani is going to reduce the size of the NYPD significantly," Kelly explained.

  "He wants to start another agency. It's a community safety agency, but he wants it to be a billion-dollar agency.

  "So the only place where that money is, is in the NYPD budget. And New York City police, their budget, 95% of it is personnel. So if you're going to take a large amount of money out of the NYPD budget, it's got to be a reduction in headcount.

Supposedly, 5,000 NYPD personnel are eligible to walk out the door as of 01 January, although it is expected that a "mere" 3,000+ will retire in 2026. Combine that with a hiring freeze and you'll see numbers dwindle even faster.

We don't know if HeyJackass.com has ever looked into a New York offshoot of its operation, but there might be a financial opportunity there for an enterprising capitalist.

He's got our vote :

• The killer of a 6-year-old boy has been released on parole after serving only half his sentence — and the slain child’s father issuing a dire threat to the freed man.

  Ronald Exantus, 42, stabbed the entire Tipton family as they slept in their Versailles, Kentucky, home on Dec. 7, 2015 — but focused most of his rage on little Logan, who he slashed repeatedly in the head with a kitchen knife. When Logan’s father, Dean Tipton, confronted the knife-wielding intruder, the dad was stabbed and tossed 10-15 feet, he told WLKY.

He stabbed the six-year-old in the head so hard, he bent the knife.

• [...] Exantus, a former dialysis nurse, was sentenced to only 20 years in 2018 for assault charges because a jury found that he was not guilty of murder by reason of insanity, WLKY reported. He was released on parole on Oct. 1 after serving just 8 years due to good behavior and education credits, according to local outlets. His parole ends on June 18, 2026, according to the Kentucky Department of Corrections.

He got out because the only conviction that stood was the assault, which doesn't qualify as a violent offense under Kentucky law.

• Tipton expressed outrage over the release and vowed to avenge his son’s killing if he ever sees Exantus again."He told [Dakota] that he was going to kill every one of us. So now I’ve gotta be on extra guard to protect my kids because I will not lose another one," Tipton told local Fox56."I’ve had my talks with God cause I’m not afraid to tell you all, I told the court — if I ever cross paths with him, I will kill the man. I will kill him where he stands," he told WKYT.

We certainly hope he gets away with it. We'd even contribute to his getaway and defense fund.

Sometimes, reality is just too....unreal :

• Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested the Superintendent of Des Moines Public Schools, Ian Andre Roberts, a criminal illegal alien from Guyana, on Thursday.

  Roberts, head of the largest public school district in the state, was in possession of a loaded handgun, 3,000ドル in cash, and a fixed blade hunting knife at the time of his arrest, according to a statement from ICE.

  He entered the U.S. in 1999 on a student visa and in May of 2024, was given a final order of removal by an immigration judge. He also had existing weapon possession charges from 2020.

This shows how broken the system is:

• supposedly earned a doctorate here;
• overstayed his student visa;
• still got hired for a job;
• previous weapon violation (for a gun illegals supposedly can't get) - not deported;
• promoted to the head of the largest school District in Iowa at nearly 300ドルK a year;
• final deportation order over a year ago - not deported;
• caught after a car chase and foot pursuit with another gun, cash and a knife;

Will be deported now, but it gets even better: The head of the Des Moines Public School Board that hired this ILLEGAL ALIEN for 300ドルK despite no citizenship, gun charges and a deportation order?

• Jackie Norris - former Chief of Staff to Mrs Sparklefarts

She's running for US Senate now, no doubt to import more ILLEGAL ALIENS to run American school systems for hundreds of thousands of taxpayer dollars a year.

Bad news out of the northeast yesterday :

• Three officers were killed and two others wounded in York County, Pennsylvania’s, Codorus Township shortly after 2:00 p.m. Eastern time.

  NBC 10 Philadelphia reported that the officers were serving a warrant. The two wounded officers are in critical condition.

  CNN noted that the suspect who opened fire on officers was shot and killed.

  NBC News indicated the issuance of the warrant was part of "following up on a domestic investigation that began Tuesday."

Deepest sympathies to all of the fallen and prayers for a speedy recovery to the wounded.

Yes, it's a tranny :

• A senior administration official confirmed to Breitbart News that the alleged shooter at a Minneapolis Catholic school changed from a male name to a female name at 17 years of age and identified as a female.

  A document posted on social media was confirmed as authentic by the official. The document describes the name change as occurring in 2020 when the alleged shooter was a minor, and required parental sign-off on the change.

And as soon as this was suspected, the left went into full damage control mode, blaming guns, the NRA and Trump for some reason. It's amazing that as soon as one of their followers, with all the attached anti-religion, anti-Trump propaganda, exhibiting more red flags than even democrats can pretend is normal, and it's the gun and the NRA that gets blamed instead of everyone who accommodated this obviously twisted psycho.

Quick thinking individuals rapidly downloaded videos, photos and manifestos of the shooter before the authorities could wipe his social media presence, so this won't be covered up like the Nashville tranny shooter.

"If it saves one life..." is a common canard - unless it's catering to a mentally ill democrat.

Not Chicago of course . We're lucky if we get a homicide free day lately:

• As the wailing and gnashing of teeth over the Trump administration’s takeover of the Washington DC police force begins to fade, the results are coming in, and they are nothing short of extraordinary.

  As of Wednesday afternoon, the nation’s capital has had no murders for seven days, something that had not been achieved since March and something I can find no recent record of in summer months when the murder rate is typically at its highest.

It's stories like this that could induce a panic attack in a mentally unwell individual, knowing that you're so bad at your job.

New York City's democratic party recently nominated a "progressive socialist islamist" who wants to defund police, tax people who can afford to move out, drive businesses from the city, and open government controlled grocery stores.

And Andrew Cuomo is warning New Yorkers to look at Chicago to see what future awaits them:

• Chicago’s budget woes under far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson should serve as warning to New Yorkers planning to back socialist Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral bid.

  "Chicago is proof that incompetent leadership can turn a deep-dish city into a half-baked mess," ex-Gov Andrew Cuomo wrote on X Friday.

This after the Wall Street Journal labeled Conehead "America's worst mayor."

He has now devolved into a punchline.

This has the potential to be the most entertaining execution in US History :

• Tennessee plans to execute Byron Black on Tuesday for the 1988 murders of a woman and her two young daughters, despite concerns from his attorneys that a device implanted to restore his heartbeat could repeatedly shock him as he's put to death.

  The device - an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, or ICD - is at the center of a court battle that has been unfolding for several weeks. Black's attorneys want the device deactivated at or immediately before his lethal injection Tuesday morning.

  If it isn't, they say, the effects of the lethal injection drugs will cause the ICD to shock Black's heart, perhaps repeatedly, in an attempt to restore it to a normal rhythm. This will cause Black a prolonged and torturous execution, the attorneys argue, violating Eighth Amendment protections against cruel and unusual punishment.

So he'll be subject to lethal injection, which first renders him unconscious, then paralyzes muscular responses to stimuli, then stops his heart. Meanwhile the defibrillator (placed there at taxpayer expense no doubt) will (theoretically) be trying to restart his heart with a series of electrical shocks, while the drugs continue to do their work.

Personally, we're hoping that it takes a few hours, and he feels every single minute of it. That would be a small measure of justice for the deceased and their family.

A bunch of crime that happens here has roots or origins elsewhere. A lot of what happens in New York, heads downstream toward Philly and Baltimore before landing in the grittier parts of DC and heading west.

Is this headed west?

• Five people in Baltimore were hospitalized for a reported mass overdose incident, one week after 27 were sickened in the same area of the city because of a "bad batch" of drugs, police said.

  The victims Friday were in serious condition, Baltimore Fire Chief James Wallace said at a news conference, including addition to two who refused treatment after first responders deployed Narcan.

We've always been entertained by that description - "bad batch," implying that there's a "good batch" of heroin floating around somewhere.

Officials also admitted that the "supply across the city is very volatile right now," so in addition to the unlicensed pharmacists adjusting their mixes to give the junkies a little more kick (stoking the rumor mills about who has the best blow), the shortages might be stoking a sudden uptick in violence over spots and boundaries.

Anyone over at Narcotics willing to enlighten the masses?

You would have to have a heart of stone not to laugh :

• A 15-year-old Queens armed mugging suspect on an e-bike fleeing NYPD cops was fatally struck by an unlicensed hit-and-run Lexus driver with an atrocious driving record after crossing into Long Island, police said Sunday.

  Cops responding to a 911 call about a knifepoint robbery in progress outside a corner pharmacy in Floral Park came across the suspect fleeing on the e-bike about 8 p.m. Saturday, police said. Officers pursued the teen for a little over a mile from Hillside Ave. and 257th St. into New Hyde Park in Nassau County, just over the Queens border, an NYPD spokesman said.

  The teen was headed east on his e-bike on Bryant Ave. when a 2015 Lexus GX 460 driven by 28-year-old Ruyan Ali slammed into him while going south on Lakeville Road, Nassau County police said. Ali, who had a suspended license and whose car registration had expired, crossed into opposing traffic to pass a car that was slowing to a stop in front of him, according to a criminal complaint.

  The teen died at the scene, and Ali tried to flee but was arrested nearby, Nassau County cops said.

We thought CPD's hiring was bad....check out NYPD's disaster :

• The NYPD is trying to force dozens of officers and recruits who failed to meet the department’s standards to resign — but the effort faced a roadblock late Thursday after a state judge blocked the move, the Post has learned.

  At least 30 cops and cadets – hired between 2023 and 2024 under Inspector Terrell Anderson, who has since been transferred out of his role with the Police Academy – were notified of the NYPD’s attempt to purge them Thursday, according to the sources.

  "They all got called down," a police source told The Post. "They’re being told: ‘You didn’t meet the qualifications. You shouldn’t have been hired. You have 24 hours to resign or be fired.’"

Many of the individuals had psych issues. Others lied about arrests, convictions and previous job terminations. But an allegedly crooked high ranking exempt-type passed them all through the hiring process after the commissioner lowered hiring standards.

For those who were around in the early 90s, CPD had a similar fiasco when a number of people were disqualified during the "psych exam" and deemed unworthy of being hired. Many dozens sued and were later scattered among later hiring classes.

We met quite a few, and some ended up being decent cops. Others....well, there certainly appears to be some solid reasoning behind those types of exams.

The whole NYPD thing is going to court, but perhaps the first hiring mistake was the exempt who thought he could just disregard established protocols.

Look how Florida is protecting its police properties :

• DELAND, Fla. - City officials in DeLand have approved construction of an eight-foot wall surrounding the police department in an effort to better protect officers and staff following recent security incidents on department grounds.

  DeLand city commissioners have unanimously approved the construction of an eight-foot security wall around the police department in response to recent threats, including a drive-by shooting, vandalism, and damage to patrol vehicles.

  The wall will include a gated access system to restrict unauthorized entry and improve safety for officers and staff. The estimated base cost is 20,000,ドル though final expenses could rise depending on the gate specifications.

Compare that to CPD's three-foot fencing, open lots, unsecured buildings, and lobbies built for easy access to all manner of homeless, terrorist and psycho.

How many times a year do we see comments and AdMin fax messages about trespassers on CPD properties?

Good news out of Missouri :

• An alleged intruder who used brass knuckles to beat against a front door and break a window just before midnight Friday in Missouri was shot multiple times by the homeowner and killed.

  KFVS 12 reported that the homeowner, Austin Glastetter, was in the house with his wife at the time of the incident.

  Glastetter told the suspect, 31-year-old John Fisher, that he was armed, but Fisher allegedly responded by saying, "You’ll have to kill me." Glastetter then shot Fisher multiple times.

If only more criminals were willinhg to announce their Rules of Engagement, crime numbers would drop across the nation overnight. Too often, victims have to guess at what the criminals actually want.

Nearly thirty years certainly contributed to our dark sense of humor:

• A suspected shoplifter trying to escape Houston police made a wild and painful decision inside the Galleria Mall on Sunday afternoon—jumping from the second story and crashing onto the ice skating rink below.

  According to local news outlets, police officers were working a security shift inside the Galleria when they were alerted to a theft in progress. They quickly located the suspect, who bolted through the mall and jumped over a second-floor railing in an attempt to escape. He landed hard on the ice below, and let’s just say...he didn’t get far.

  Video captured by witness Ken Gilliard shows the man sprawled on the rink, screaming in pain. "As soon as he fell, he tried to get up. And I guess he noticed that his legs were broken. He screamed, ‘My legs are broken,’" Gilliard told Click2Houston. In the video, officers can be seen stepping onto the ice to reach him.

No video of the actual leap and fall, but the aftermath is still amusing.

So is this part:

• .... the suspect shouted, "Come get me," right before jumping.

No problem moron. You probably won't ever be running again.

In case you needed reminding:

Drunk drivers - one of the single largest populations of killers of the innocent - and dems support them.

And how about this out of Denver :

• The Denver City Council has voted unanimously to shutter a highly successful anti-theft auto license plate tracking system. The system was not closed due to concerns about privacy or finances. It was shut down because Democratic members believed that ICE could use the data to deport illegals.

  In May, the council refused to renew the 666,000ドル contract with Flock for camera monitors around 70 Denver intersections to screen for car theft. That system resulted in the recovery of 170 stolen cars and 300 arrests. It is also credited with key evidence in the investigation of hit-and-run and murder cases.

  However, it could also be used to assist ICE, and that is all that matters. Councilman Kevin Flynn explained it is all about Trump’s election: "We know that it can help solve crime. But I think since maybe Jan. 20 of this year, those concerns are greatly heightened and have a new reality about them."

So screw recovering your stolen car. If the successful program inconveniences even a single ILLEGAL alien, then it must be stopped even when it benefits actual taxpaying citizens.

And still the upstanding law abiding citizen we all know him to be:

• A Chicago man who gained notoriety for riding a horse on the Dan Ryan Expressway was charged with setting up an illegal bar and strip club in Calumet Township.

  Adam Hollingsworth, 37, is charged with maintaining a common nuisance, a Level 6 felony, and misdemeanor selling alcohol without a permit, according to the probable cause affidavit.

  [...] In searching its records, the Indiana Alcohol Tobacco Commission found no evidence indicating the address had a valid alcohol license or had a valid permit to sell tobacco products, records state. As of June 16, there are no signs of Hollingsworth applying for a license or permit.

At least he's only abusing livers now instead of horses.

Starting with the Soros-funded DA's and SA's, climbing during the #blm bull$hit and reaching it's peak under Drooling Vegetable's open borders disaster, it got really really bad :

• Assaults on NYC cops have surged a shocking 63% over the past six years — and police officers and experts warned this week that the trend will continue because of a criminal-friendly justice system that fails to "deliver any consequences."

  There have been 970 assaults on uniformed police officers in the city so far this year, up from the 595 officers attacked at the same point in pre-pandemic 2019, NYPD data show.

  The number of assaulted cops, which includes all city law enforcement officers, is up 57% so far this year compared to the same span three years ago, and climbed 4% compared to the same period last year, the data show.

And that's just blue-state blue-city-$hithole New York, but indicative of a wider problem among all democrat run $hitholes.

Anyone got the numbers for Chicago, LA, St Louis, Minneapolis, Seattle, San Francisco, Denver, New Orleans? We're betting on similar numbers, perhaps not as bad as 63%, but certainly significant increases.

Seattle has been a disaster since they decided to de-criminalize everything under the sun and allowing panti-fa to run parts of the city as "autonomous" zones. But last weekend really took the cake.

It seems the city government wouldn't permit some anti-groomer people to protest at a certain park and told them there was only one available venue for said protest - and that location was right in the middle of panti-fa central.

Guess who had to stand between the two groups?

• Violence returned to Seattle this weekend, and that has police fuming about the city's "naïve or deliberate" decision that made it inevitable.

  Seattle police reported at least 23 arrests on Saturday at Cal Anderson Park during MayDayUSA’s "Don’t Mess With Our Kids" rally — and the pro-LGBTQ counter-protest. According to the Seattle Times, "Roughly 500 people attended the prayer rally" and "about as many turned out in protest."

  Police ordered the LGBTQ counter-protesters to "back away from officers and to stop throwing items at officers," but instead, fighting broke out.

  The Seattle Police Officers Guild (SPOG) said on X Saturday night that they don't have "the proper staffing to handle any more of these demonstrations that turn into mass arrests." They also warned that "this city lacks the political will to allow police to use the necessary tools to hold back criminal mobs to protect life and property."

Remember:

• Seattle has defunded cops to the point that they are TWENTY-FIVE percent understaffed (less than 847 of 1,200 spots);
• they've refused to hold criminals accountable in the courts;
• they denied protestors their first choice of location, steering them to a location that has been Ground Zero for rioters the past five years;
• then they stick the cops in the middle.

And the SPD union released a statement that a further 284 of the 847 remaining officers are eligible to retire tomorrow. Hopefully, they all leave this summer and Seattle burns to the ground.

So this happened in New Orleans :

• Superintendent of the New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) Anne Kirkpatrick rode around in a pig-shaped golf cart Saturday at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, video obtained by the Daily Caller shows.

  A video shows Kirkpatrick and the driver of the pig-shaped vehicle stopping to interact with festival goers and posing for a photo with a stuffed owl wearing a jersey and sunglasses. The vehicle appears to have the logo of the House of Hogs , a New Orleans-based barbecue team and nonprofit organization that fundraises for grants to develop "Hog Houses," which offer free accommodations to families at children’s hospitals.

  "That’s the chief of police," someone can be heard saying.

  Kirkpatrick’s decision to ride around publicly in a pig-shaped golf cart is curious as "pig" is often a derogatory word for law enforcement used by anti-police activists.

An unqualified embarrassment when she was here, she attempted to threaten the political structure if she wasn't made superintendent. After being laughed out of Chicago, she went to a number of different departments where she ran over a parked motorcycle in Oakland before running over two pedestrians in New Orleans. All before bungling the New Years Day terror attack that left fourteen dead.

Then, she does this:
