It’s rapidly becoming a Berg’s Law: if the media doesn’t give any demographic details about a violent criminal (say, a white Hell’s Angel with an umbrella), you can infer the rest.
When I saw the initial coverage of Saturday morning’s bloodbath in the Warehouse District, I treated it as a test.
Up until noonish yesterday (Sunday)? Even after the arrest was made? Not a word about the shooter.
So – was I right?
What do you think?
Carroll was arrested in 2016 for a variety of felonies egregious enough for Mike Freeman to put down his bottle for a moment at try to make an example of.
Carroll ended up getting all charges dismissed, in exchange for pleading guilty to “disorderly condcut”.
Remember – public safety is a privilege.
Oh he wont back down from that. He saw the proof on Gateway Pundit.
Speaking of GW pundit — where the Sam Hill is Swift? Is he on a SiTD imposed timeout?
Not retreating, John K. Refusing.
I refuse to participate in a discussion with a liar. You are a liar.
This is my last response to you.
I’ve largely not insulted anyone since Tom’s been gone.
You’ve casually and flippantly insulted the entire body of commenters. Over and over.
I mean, it’s been utterly self-marginalizing, but to invoke a phrase I hate, “you do you”.
Congrats on seizing upon the despicable, JK! I knew you could do it!
More smears.
I wouldn’t trust GW pundit if he/she/it reported that the sun rose in the east.
Gateway Pundit?
What next? “I bet you listen to Alex Jones?
Pfft. Glen Beck is too much of a opinion-mining alarmist ninny for me.
My claim is that your contributor Lawyer Joe is a crank conspiracy theorist, and his contributions are garbage-y.
My joke, as referenced, is him reading crank conspiracy theorists and repeating them here at SiTD or being inspired by them for his writing here at SiTD. My punchline was Gateway Pundit.
Mitch Berg: “Gateway Pundit? What next? “I bet you listen to Alex Jones?
You personally read Gateway Pundit, Mitch.

A brief review of the record shows MO constantly rejecting Gateway Pundit.

Tom was a fan. Some of the other guys still around are readers, it’s safe to say.
I’ll limit my response / analysis to whether the GP joke is solid. Discussion of “Alex Jones” would allowing Mitch to “move the goalposts”.
Odd. If something factual is published at a site that JK doesn’t approve, the fact is not a fact. And if people of whom JK doesn’t approve say/write anything, that anything is, ipso facto, false. Makes life simple, I guess.
The Gateway Pundit is having a super normal one!
Bill Gates Linked Org. Sends Pretty French Honeypot to US in Effort to Take Down Gateway Pundit — But She Failed Miserably and Flew Back Home

Is she pretty and French or is she pretty French but not excessively. Jim Hoft strikes out with a French chick, decides to spin it as a victory against the globalist cabal.
You personally read Gateway Pundit, Mitch.
Huh.
OK – so where the facts presented in the piece wrong?
Any of them?
If Hoft told me the sun rose in the east, I would set my alarm clock early so I could check it.
