THE NATURAL NEXT STEP IS FOR PEOPLE TO BECOME AVAILABLE TO BEAT UP GUYS LIKE THIS FOR A FEE. POLICE WILL BE ENCOURAGED TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY WITH BRIBES AND/OR INTIMIDATION, OR JUST SYMPATHY:
As re my point on crime.
One guy is currently, in NYC, doing this at will. The Park Avenue garden planters that I admired while in New York are ruined.
One beating, or short stint in the actual/real booty house, ends this forever- so everyone else can look at the flowers.

There are many ways to provide public order if the state won’t. They existed before police and will reappear when police cease to function. “Anarchotyranny” will delay that, but probably also ensure that it appears in a more violent form when it does.

That's weird! Reuters, quoting half a dozen think tankers from Obama's Iran Echo Chamber, recently published that the Iranian regime had functionally indefinite oil storage and was totally winning. What does this revealed behavior by the regime tell us about that journalism? https://t.co/xsDdWXE1IE

UPDATE: What We Know About WHCD Shooting So Far; Shooter Identified? UPDATE: Video of His Charge. “The basics: inexplicably, given the level of security at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner, a man penetrated several layers of security that start far outside the Washington Hilton and rushed the magnetometers just outside the ballroom where the president, vice president, First Lady, and a significant number of Cabinet members and congressmen were.”
Friend at WHCD sent me a photo as she walked out of demonstrators waving signs that say “Death to tyrants” and “Death to all of them,” just in case you’re wondering if an actual attempted shooting would make them feel any shame. pic.twitter.com/cTMYjzL3Zb

Never forget how immediately after Charlie Kirk’s assassination, Destiny stated that “we need conservatives to be afraid of getting killed when they go to events”

ROGER KIMBALL ON TONIGHT’S ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT:
Donald and Melania Trump entered the hall at 8:16 to cheers and applause. “Hail to the Chief” was followed by presentation of the colors and the National Anthem. We had a brief introduction from Weijia Jiang, this year’s president of the White House Correspondents Association, followed by dinner.
Two questions hovered in the background. One, how would President Trump treat the press? And two, would he, as had many presidents in the past at this event, treat the audience to a little self-deprecating humor? “Donald Trump” and “self-deprecation” are not words you often hear together, but who knows? The President is also a master communicator who reads his audience well.
We never found out. At about 8:35, four loud noises were heard from the back of the room. They were shots. . . .
“The First Amendment,” “Free Speech,” “A Free Media” are different ways of enunciating what the dinner is supposed to be all about. Not much mention, if any, will be given to the clamp down on free speech under the Biden administration or the liberating revolution sparked by Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter and his campaign to restore speech to the platform and hence to the wider media environment.
Donald Trump has probably given the media more access to his thoughts than any president in history. At least part of many of his Cabinet meetings are open to the media and he seldom boards or exits a plane without stopping to answer questions. If he thinks a question is stupid or ill-informed, he will say so. Fake news he treats as fake news. The media hates that, of course, but has anyone ever treated them more like adults?
Well, but they’re not. They’re middle school Mean Girls with a megaphone.
THE LEFT’S ASSASSINATION CULTURE HAS MAINSTREAM ENABLERS WHO SHOULD BE HELD STRICTLY ACCOUNTABLE:
OK, how many assassination attempts now? He must hold the record, or is getting close to it.

OPEN THREAD: Make it special.
SO MUCH POLITICAL VIOLENCE FROM THE LEFT: Shots Fired at Correspondents Dinner, Shooter Neutralized, Trump Evacuated. “The shooter who fired off multiple rounds at the White House correspondents’ dinner Saturday evening is reportedly dead, and Secret Service agents successfully took President Donald Trump off the stage to safety. Fox News announced around 9 p.m. EDT that Trump was going to return, and the dinner could go on as planned. . . . The mainstream media have, of course, been encouraging violent hatred against President Trump for years with their extreme rhetoric framing him as worse than Hitler and the KKK. Perhaps they will be less extreme in their language now that they themselves faced such a potentially deadly situation.” Don’t count on it.
WHAT JUST HAPPENED AT WHCD;
Trump was introduced with First Lady 15 mins ish ago
Five or so mins after he was seated shots range out: POP POP POP POP. Sounds like five to me where I’m sitting.
Everyone immediately hit the floor.
Secret Service immediately took POTUS out…
