Two Recent Senseless Attacks
Editors note: New information has come to light correcting previous media posts. We were made aware that Rhynes was in fact NOT wearing a “Justice for Breonna Taylor” t-shirt at the time of the shooting, but rather a t-shirt that featured a combined picture of Muhammad Ali and Colin Kaepernick, with the word “freedom” written on it.
On Friday night, September 18th, a black man, who is seemingly a Black Lives Matter advocate, walked into a bar and shot three unsuspecting people at point blank range.
33- year-old Michael E. Rhynes Jr. walked into Bungalow Joe’s Bar and Grill, approached a table with three men sitting at it, and began firing.
According to restaurant owner Joe Bishop, the the shooter and the victims did not know each other, and had not spoken before the attack.

Black Lives Matter Activist Wearing ‘Justice for Breonna Taylor’ Shirt Walked into a Louisville Bar and Murdered Three People
By Cassandra Fairbanks
A black male walked into a Louisville bar owned by a retired police officer and shot three random people at point blank range on Friday night — while wearing a Justice for Breonna Taylor shirt.
The suspect was smiling from ear to ear as he was arrested for the shooting at Bungalow Joe’s Bar and Grill.
Michael E. Rhynes Jr., 33, was arrested just after midnight Saturday after police found him crawling in brush near the restaurant, according to a report from WDRB.
“Nobody had ever seen this guy before,” the owner of the bar, Joe Bishop told WDRB, referring to the shooter. “It was a totally random act.” He explained that the men did not exchange words at any time prior to the shooting.
Two of the victims were white and one was black.
Toreon Jermaine Hudson, 26, and William Scott Smallwood, 48, were pronounced dead at the scene, while Steven Matthew Head, 24, died from his injuries at University Hospital.
One of the victims was the fiancé of the bar manager and all three of the men worked together.
Hudson has a young daughter, per the GoFundMe for his family.
The joint GoFundMe for the victims families has raised over $20,000.
Police have not yet announced the killer’s motivation for the attack.
The guy is clearly a psychopath, and had no business being in possession of a firearm. Sadly, this isn’t the only random act of senseless violence of late. Democrat politicians are more than willing to take advantage of incidents like these to push their gun control agenda, and dance in the blood of the innocent.

Biden: We Need to Ban ‘Assault Weapons’ and ‘High-Capacity Magazines’
By S.H. BLANNELBERRY
Following an ambush attack over the weekend on police in Compton, CA, that left two Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies critically injured, former Vice President Joe Biden immediately took to Twitter to call for stricter gun-control laws.
“Weapons of war have no place in our communities,” tweeted Biden. “We need to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.”
Surveillance footage of the incident shows the suspect using a pistol, not a long gun, in the attack. It’s not clear what size magazine the shooter had in the handgun.
California law already prohibits the possession of assault weapons and magazines over 10 rounds. Though, that 10-round limitation is currently being challenged in federal court.
The deputies, a 24-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman, were hit several times. The female officer was shot in the jaw and in the arms. The male officer sustained wounds to the hand, arm, and forehead, according to ABC News.
“This is just a somber reminder that this is a dangerous job. Actions, words have consequences and our job does not get easier because people don’t like law enforcement,” LA County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said at a press briefing.
As mentioned, there is no evidence that a so-called assault weapon, presumably a semi-automatic rifle, was used in this cowardly attack. Facts such as these are interesting, but not relevant to Dems in pursuit of curtailing our rights under the Constitution. Protect yourself and those close to you as best you can, and Vote!

Anytime a life is lost needlessly is a reason to mourn. And I’ll leave it at that.
Joe Biteme can totally have my “assault weapons and high-capacity magazines”. I suggest he gets a really good metal detector and/or locks up all of my patriot friends that lived through that unConstitutional ‘94 Crime Bill.
From my cold dead hands, Mister VicePresident.
“…..Mister FORMER Vice President” FIFY He may want to get a boat, some scuba gear and maybe one of those big Vac Trucks/silt remover vehicles to get thru the quicksand at the bottom of the flooded lake. He may even have to build a cofferdam, Idk.
Per the lines in the article and what ninja said below, once again, the facts of the story are never checked and or put out there. What gets me is I hadn’t seen anything at all on the Louisville story all weekend, and hell, I camp out on about 5 different news feeds in addition to being a burr under AW1Ed’s Saddle. Guess it was buried in and amongst the all RBG all the time news. I’m sure it had nothing at all to do with the level of pigment that was in the people involved.
And yepper, we could have prevented both of these shootings if we just had some more common sense gunz control laws.
KoB:
Just as you, was also unaware of this incident.
Really appreciate Poetrooper and AW1Ed for sharing the Louisville story.
Just wish the Reporter had taken some precious time to do a bit of fact checking.
Her story may end up financially hurting the Owner.
So Sad.
KOB, the reason I sent it to Ed was because I suspected the so-called “mainstream” media wouldn’t touch it with the proverbial ten-foot pole, and I was right.
Just checked again and other than local news stations it’s going unreported–no national coverage. Imagine how those hypocrites would be howling if a white NRA member had shot and killed three BLM activists–two blacks and a white.
Trump is right: The media IS the enemy of the people, a conclusion I came to more than three decades ago.
Tanks Poe, got this re-book marked now. Digging deeper and still no national news, as you pointed out. Gateway had another article in re the Omaha case, with the “Special Prosecutor giving an interview. That SOB killed Mr. Gardner shore as if he pulled the trigger himself. And yeah…Trump’s fault.

“A black male walked into a Louisville bar owned by a retired police officer…”
Updated Information about the Owner and the Restaurant.
Sadly, the news media once again failed to conduct fact checking before publishing a story.
Rest In Peace and Condolences to the Victims and their Families on the senseless tragic event in Louisville:
“New Details on Fern Creek Triple Murder Suspect, Record Set Straight By Restaurant Owner, LMPD”:
https://www.wave3.com/2020/09/21/new-details-fern-creek-triple-murder-suspect-record-set-straight-by-restaurant-owner-lmpd/
“The restaurant owner spoke with WAVE 3 News, saying he’s been fielding a lot of hostility because of strong accusations on social media.”
“Joe Bishop has run a successful business for over a decade. Before he reopens Bungalow Joe’s, he wants to set the record straight.”
“I’m not an ex-cop, the killings were not done in my restaurant they were done out here, outside, I’m a family restaurant, not a bar,” stated Bishop.”
“Bishop said he’s been getting attacked from both sides of the political spectrum since the shooting. The incident has traumatized his employees and customers, all people he calls family.”
“I’m sure there are people who have never been here, that would steer away from the place now,” Bishop said. “I’m not saying, I don’t blame them.”
“We need to ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines.” – Joe Biden
That is quite ill-defined. Anything and everything in my house can be used as a weapons, if need be, so does that mean I lose my 9 inch cast iron skillet and my embroidery scissors?
Seriously, the term “assault weapons” can be applied to ANY COTTON PICKIN’ THING, including vehicles, trains, planes, toboggans, kitchen spatulas, ice cubes, bottle of V-8 juice – the list is endless.
This in itself, because it is so stupid, leaves that idjit wide open to people throwing things at him.
2nd, a high-capacity magazine is not defined, and I have no idea what that senile old gasbag thinks he’s talking about.
Could be anything from Cosmopolitan magazine, since it is ALWAYS overloaded with stuff, to the barrels of gunpowder you were planning to use for the Fourth of July celebration, with real cannonades included.
Totally bogus, he’s a robot, he says what he’s told to say and needs to stop talking.
“Totally bogus, he’s a robot, he says what he’s told to say and needs to stop talking.”
Taking bets to see if he do the Debate…
Will telepromters be allowed?
Asking For A Friend.
To a liberal, every gun is an assault rifle or a Glock.
They call for banning AR-15s after a knife attack.
Well, regardless of how many rounds the Compton shooters magazine held, he did not fire even ten rounds from his semi-auto pistol. If they ever find the weapon they will be able to match the cartridge cases and possibly some of the fired bullets.
Let’s all hope for a DRT resolution for the Compton hoodrat that shot the officers.
Gee whiz, was he looking to be famous or infamous?
IN other news, here are the rules of proper debate. This usually involves teams (at the upper high school or college level), but the rules still apply.

Now, that’s how it was done between Nixon and Kennedy, and Kennedy came out on top, for various reasons, but he was, frankly, not necessarily better than Nixon. In fact, people who heard those debates on the radio thought that Nixon had won.
But those were civilized times, not the current “interesting” times.
The popular perception at the time was that Kennedy looked fresh, young, and clean, whereas Nixon appeared dirty and unshaven. While he had a heavy beard, the latter was not true, but TV lighting was more haphazard in those days. Watch some of the ’50s game shows to see.
Kennedy “won” those TV debates because he was photogenic, while Nixon wasn’t. Plain and simple.
As I recall, Nixon had also been hospitalized for a while prior to the debates. He looked haggard and borderline unhealthy because he’d lost around 10 lbs while hospitalized.
In reality Nixon was far healthier than Kennedy. Kennedy had Addison’s Disease and was taking serious – some would say excessive – levels of prescription drugs throughout his Administration (including steroids, as I recall).
Have heard that those who listened to the debate on the radio thought Nixon won.
Yep, sure do miss my guns.
That canoe capsizing while I was crossing the great Lady Bird Lake with all my guns really makes it hard to take.
They’re at the bottom of that lake, here in Austin…
So sad, I really miss them.
State legislatures should designate all their lakes as state-approved gun-fills with accompanying legislation that prevents ANY federal authority from searching them.
Louisville is about to reap what they’ve sewn, the one-of-three officers that was indicted on that half-assed charge will walk.
Congrats on the riot, f**kos!
This system has reached its end, time for a reset.
