Where’s Alec? In October 2021 in New Mexico while filming the movie Rust, Alec Baldwin shot and killed one coworker and wounded another. His action was almost certainly unintentional, but the result was the same, one person dead, one person wounded. I first wrote about the incident here. Where’s Alec? The New Mexico Occupational Health […]
This is a guest post by Desi Bergman, NotMeSD Project Manager. As of July 2022, the San Diego Union Tribune reported that the current response time to a Priority One police emergency call in San Diego County is 40 minutes. That’s right, 40 minutes!

Since this article was published on July 17, the charges against the clerk have been dropped. In New York City on July 1st a 61-year-old man was assaulted behind the counter of the business in which he worked.

Once again, the country is reeling from a tragedy that should never happen but does. I’m not going to write about what happened at a Texas elementary school out of respect for those directly touched by that unimaginable horror. What I will write about is the corrupt, befuddled individual who currently occupies the White House […]
In the next week or two, the Senate will begin confirmation hearings on the Biden administration’s second nominee to head the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF). That nominee is Steve Dettelbach. Biden’s first nominee, David Chipman, went down in flames during his confirmation hearing with the Senate. It wasn’t just that Chipman […]

Living in California my options of coming across the real thing are somewhat limited, however high-quality replicas are a good place to start. I began my journey […]
Miracle of miracles! The politicians in Sacramento finally produced a bill that was so grotesque that even they could not pass it. We’re referring to SB906, the proposed legislation that would have required parents to disclose information concerning their gun ownership to their children’s school. The bill died in committee last week. I wrote about […]
