Victims Are Often Criminals, and That Is a Paradox American Policing Can’t Solve

7th August 2019

Read it.

On January 2 of this year, the Baltimore Police Department sent out its annual analysis of the city’s homicides: in 2018, there were 309. The majority of the victims were killed in the street and almost sixty percent died from a gunshot wound to the head. Ninety-four percent were black men.

The analysis also included data on the criminal records of the victims. The vast majority of homicide victims had been arrested before. One in four were either on parole or probation when they died.

…

In May 2013, Carlos Wheeler shot a young black man named Ronnie Thomas III, who got hit in the leg but survived. In April 2014, Thomas III was arrested for shooting at someone. In June 2015, Thomas III was shot and killed. The following month, Carlos Wheeler’s brother, Nathanial, was shot and killed — in retaliation for Carlos shooting at Thomas III back in 2013, prosecutors said.

Skinny Suge, who produced Stop Fucking Snitching, is legally named Ronnie Thomas — Ronnie Thomas III was his son. Addressing Baltimore’s epidemic of violence means reaching Baltimoreans like the Thomases. Police might not be the best people for that job.

Explosion Rips Through Danish Tax Office

7th August 2019

Read it.

In a bizarre incident that has left the police with no leads, an explosion ripped through Denmark’s national tax agency late Tuesday. Though nobody was seriously injured (one passerby was hit by flying degree and sustained minor injuries), Danish police are baffled why anybody would want to destroy the tax agency in a country that boasts one of the heaviest tax rates in the OECD.

Yeah, that’s a real head-scratcher. It’s probably Trump’s fault.

To Sleep, Perchance to Clean

7th August 2019

Read it.

In findings that give fresh meaning to the old adage that a good night’s sleep clears the mind, a new study shows that a recently discovered system that flushes waste from the brain is primarily active during sleep. This revelation could transform scientists’ understanding of the biological purpose of sleep and point to new ways to treat neurological disorders.

Yet another reason to enjoy sleep.

Invade, Invite, Implode

7th August 2019

Steve Sailer pulls it all together.

If a president cited crime statistics to rile up racial hatred, but his speech was immediately followed by a terrorist massacre, would he be criticized?

Well, not if he were Barack Obama, whose July 7, 2016, TV oration from Warsaw denouncing the police shootings of two black men was followed later that day by the murder of five policemen at a Dallas Black Lives Matter march. Ten days after Obama’s speech, three more cops were murdered in Baton Rouge.

Why Did the US Exit the INF Treaty? What You’re Not Being Told

7th August 2019

Read it.

While on the face of it, it looks as if the US is directly taking action against Russia (and don’t get me wrong, it totally is doing that as well), the fact remains that the US wants out of this treaty because it was concerned it was limiting its ability to combat China in the Asia-Pacific theater.

Mandatory Ethnic Studies Too Much Even for the LA Times

7th August 2019

Read it.

o one objects in principle to a serious ethnic studies program, just as sensible people support “multicultural” perspectives rightly understood. The trouble with a lot of multiculturalist projects and various identity-studies programs in schools today is that they are highly politicized and ideological. This attracts some students, but it understandably turns off many students—perhaps a large majority.

Hence the demand of zealous advocates for ethnic studies to make their subject matter mandatory, as is proposed currently for California’s K-12 system.

Mexicans Are Safer in El Paso than in Mexico

7th August 2019

Read it.

The Mexican government, which has contributed heavily to Mexico having one of the world’s worst homicide rates, has announced it may seek legal action against the United States “for failing to protect its citizens after this weekend’s mass shooting in the border city of El Paso.”

One of the reasons, although not the only one of course, that Mexicans are coming to the U.S. is because they’re safer here than in Mexico.

Proscription Lists

7th August 2019

Audacious Epigone draws an historical parallel.

It took a matter of seconds to find the personal addresses of several of these people (yes, I realize this information is publicly available through the FEC–it doesn’t matter). We are seeing the transition from the cultural wars being fought figuratively and by proxy through public champions to being literally waged against private individuals for merely expressing political preferences. If an American Sulla is what we’re collectively after, this is how one is going to come about.

How is [sic] Tesla’s Solar Roof Tiles now?

Read it.

Elon Musk unveiled prototypes of Tesla’s solar roof tiles in October 2016. They came in four styles that looked just like normal roofing material but were essentially miniaturized versions of traditional solar panels. The roof tiled reveal helped Tesla justify a 2.6 billion dollars acquisition of solar city and represented Musk’s vision for where the businesses could do together. It’s been almost two years since then so where are the tiles?

Hostile Architecture

6th August 2019

Read it.

Hostile architecture is an intentional design strategy that uses elements of the built environment to guide or restrict behaviour in urban space as a form of crime prevention or order maintenance. It often targets people who use or rely on public space more than others, like people who are homeless and youth, by restricting the behaviours they engage in. Also known as defensive architecture, hostile design, unpleasant design, exclusionary design, or defensive urban design, hostile architecture is most typically associated with “anti-homeless spikes” — studs embedded in flat surfaces to make sleeping rough uncomfortable, and impractical. Other measures include sloped window sills to stop people sitting, benches with armrests positioned to stop people lying on them, and water sprinklers that “intermittently come on but aren’t really watering anything.” Hostile architecture also seeks to deter skateboarding, littering, loitering, and public urination. Critics argue that such measures reinforce social divisions and create problems for all members of the public, especially seniors, people with disabilities, and children.

We have the technology.

Google Just Revealed a Brilliantly Simple Trick to Totally Destroy Telemarketers. (Wait, Why Aren’t We Doing This Already?)

Read it.

Here’s how Google’s solution works–introduced at its hardware event in New York City on Tuesday. It’s called simply “Call Screen,” and it’s built into Android on the Pixel 3.

  • When you get a call from a number you don’t recognize on an Android device, click “Call Screen” on your device.
  • Google Assistant answers the call, with a greeting like, “Hi, the person you’re calling is using a screening service from Google, and will get a copy of this conversation. Go ahead and say your name, and why you are calling.”
  • The caller will either hang up–in which case it’s probably not important–or provide an answer, which will then be transcribed and displayed on your screen.
  • Then it’s up to you to decide whether to answer.

Chicago Hospital Stops Accepting Gunshot Victims After Trauma Center Overwhelmed

Following 60 shootings in the first 96 hours of August – seven of which were deadly, Chicago’s Mount Sinai Hospital temporarily stopped accepting patients on Sunday because they hit maximum capacity after 17 people were shot between Saturday night and Sunday morning, according to Chicago’s WGN9.

Lost amidst all of this hand-wringing about the ‘mass shootings’ in El Paso and Dayton is the fact that that level of carnage happens every week in Chicago and Balitmore and other Democrat-run cities.

After the El Paso shooter uploaded a four-page manifesto to the online chat forum known as 8chan, the media and journalists lobbied for the site to be taken down.

This decision hindered the website’s ability to deal with law enforcement looking to close the case of the El Paso massacre and caused 8chan to shut down temporarily.

The Regression of America’s Big Progressive Cities

5th August 2019

Joel Kotkin looks at the record.

Baltimore represents an extreme case, but sadly it is not alone. Last year our three largest urban centers — New York, Los Angeles and Chicago — lost people while millennial migration accelerated both to the suburbs and smaller, generally less dense cities. These demographic trends, as well as growing blight, poor schools, decaying infrastructure and, worst of all, expanding homelessness are not merely the result of “racism” or Donald Trump, but have all been exacerbated by policy agendas that are turning many great cities into loony towns.

Used to be that Democrat urban political machines enriched themselves while providing goods and services to the inhabitants who kept them in office. Now they’ve cut out the ‘goods and services’ part of that formula.

This Revolutionary Blast Furnace Vaporizes Trash and Turns It into Clean Energy (Without Any Emissions)

5th August 2019

Read it.

The company’s modified blast furnace uses FastOx gasification technology to heat all of the trash to 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit, which is about twice as hot as the heart of a volcano.

While it may seem like this would require large amounts of energy, the system is able to generate the heat simply by injecting pure oxygen into the furnace. The oxygen then reacts with the carbon emanating from the rotting garbage in order to create carbon monoxide and hydrogen. The steam is then pumped back into the furnace to maintain the internal temperature.

FCC Bans Robocalls, Texts

Now, the FCC can monitor and penalize “bad actors” behind these types of schemes.

Well, let’s see if it has any effect.
