Police say driver accidentally shot himself while leaving scene of two-vehicle head-on crash
Natural selection at work?
Police arrested a Columbia man after arriving at the scene of a two-vehicle head-on collision, which took place in the 3300 block of Brown Station Road Friday afternoon.
According to public information officer Jeff Pitts at the scene, Timothy S. Ellis was driving a black Jeep Cherokee. Columbia police officers attempted to make a traffic stop around Paris and Mexico Gravel roads; the driver initially stopped, then drove away at “a high rate of speed,” according to a subsequent news release Saturday.
Police suspended any pursuit before the driver of the northbound vehicle struck an elderly couple driving southbound on Brown Station Road head-on. The driver accidentally shot himself in the leg while leaving the accident scene on foot, the release said. Initial reports said the driver shot himself in the groin area.
Police apprehended Ellis a short distance away and gave medical assistance until emergency services arrived, the release noted.
Ellis, 35, was arrested for first-degree assault, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon in connection with a shots-fired incident Feb. 16 on Talon Drive, the release stated. Additionally, he was arrested for felon in possession of a firearm, unlawful use of a weapon, resisting arrest, trafficking narcotics and distribution of narcotics related to Friday’s incident.
The couple in the other vehicle were both transported to a Columbia hospital, and were considered in stable condition at the time, according to the release. Ellis was transported to an area hospital for surgery stemming from his gunshot wound; Saturday’s release said he would be released into police custody and taken to Boone County Jail after being discharged from the hospital.

Raleigh Police Department officer charged with dealing drugs while on duty, US attorney says
A Raleigh Police Department officer has been charged with distributing cocaine while on the job, according to US Attorney Michael Easley Jr.
Keven Rodriguez, 33, was arrested Wednesday and charged with distribution of cocaine and possession of a firearm in relation to the former crime.
Investigators said two sources told Raleigh Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration that Rodriguez was selling controlled substances in Raleigh while serving as a police officer.
A confidential informant met Rodriguez on Jan. 24 in the 1800 block of Capital Boulevard at an abandoned former auto dealership, Rodriguez was a sworn RPD officer at the time. He arrived at the meeting location in his patrol car, in uniform, while carrying his service weapon, arrest documents show.
The informant was equipped with audio and video recording devices, authorities said.
According to federal investigators, the source gave Rodriguez $2,600 in exchange for a substance later confirmed by lab tests to be approximately 56 grams of cocaine.
“An on-duty Raleigh police department officer, in his police cruiser, with his gun, dealt drugs,” Easley summarized.
RPD Chief Estella Patterson said the arrest is a disappointment to her and her team but shows her commitment to holding officers and herself to high standards of conduct.
“While I am disturbed by today’s events, I will not allow the actions of one to define the Raleigh Police Department,” Patterson said. “I will continue to hold myself and officers accountable to the highest standards of conduct both on and off duty.”
Patterson said Rodriguez has been with RPD since July 30, 2018. He is currently on administrative leave without pay.
Rodriguez had a first appearance Thursday on the charges.
He faces a mandatory minimum penalty of 5 years in prison if convicted, and a maximum of life in prison.

As Russia Wages War, US Army Trains Officers on Gender Identity
You gotta see this one to believe it.
While Russia wages a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the U.S. Army is putting its soldiers through training on gender pronouns and coaching officers on when to offer soldiers gender transition surgery, according to an official military presentation on the subject obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
The mandatory presentation, “Policy on the Military Service of Transgender Persons and Persons with Gender Dysphoria,” was given to officers earlier this month along with instructions for them to train their subordinates on the material. Portions of the presentation were provided to the Free Beacon by a whistleblower who was ordered to undergo the training as a high-ranking officer in the Army Special Forces.
An Army spokesman confirmed to the Free Beacon that the slides in question are part of “mandatory training” and come from an official program “used to train Army personnel on the recent changes to the DoD and Army transgender service policy.” All Army personnel, from soldiers to commanders and supervisors, are required to participate in the training by Sept. 30, 2022, according to the spokesman.

Buttigieg on Keystone Pipeline amid Ukraine Invasion: We Don’t Want ‘Permanent Solutions’ to Short Term Problems
Why would we want a permanent solution? What a fucking clown.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The 11th Hour” that to combat oil prices skyrocketing amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine, President Joe Biden did not want to authorize the Keystone Pipeline.
According to Buttigieg, it would be “galloping after permanent solutions to immediate short term problems.”
Anchor Stephanie Ruhle said, “I want to stay on gas for another moment. You’re absolutely right, the president does not set the price of gas, but he can influence it. And while releasing some strategic reserves matters, given how much has been released, it is really just a drop in the bucket. Are there things, and I realize this is controversial, it has huge environmental impacts, could the president possibly consider authorizing the Keystone Pipeline? Or working something out with Iran?”
Buttigieg said, “Look, the president has said that all options are on the table. But we also need to make sure that we are not galloping after permanent solutions to immediate short term problems, where more strategic and tactical actions in the short term that can make a difference, like what you have with the strategic reserve, which exists partly in order to respond to situations like this.”
He added, “The president has laid policies that are going help cushion the impacts of any volatility in energy markets in the future by building up more of a diversified and homegrown energy base for this country.”
Yeah, well the president’s policies have made everyone’s lives worse, so I’m not getting my hopes up.

U.S. Constitution Is ‘Trash’ Written by Slave-Owning ‘White People’
This might be the dumbest thing ever said by an American “intellectual.” Which says a lot, since we have so many dumbasses that think they’re smart.
The Nation’s justice correspondent Elie Mystal said Friday on ABC’s “The View” that the United States Constitution is “trash” written by slave-owning white people.
Discussing his new book “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy’s Guide to the Constitution,” Mystal said, “Republicans are obviously trying to manipulate those laws, particularly the rights of minorities, women, and the LGBTQ communities, and I explain it in ways we can understand so we can fight them.”
Co-host Ana Navarro said, “I live in Florida, so I’m, like, on ground zero of where all of this is happening. I’m out of my mind about the bills banning conversations about race and ethnicity and LGBTQ, just even mentioning gender identity in primary schools…Are you arguing for throwing out the Constitution? Should the Constitution be thrown out? What do we do? Is it a living document, or is it a sacred document?”
Mystal said, “It’s certainly not sacred. Let’s start there. The Constitution is kind of trash. Again, let’s just talk as adults for a second.”
Co-host Joy Behar said, “What did you say?”
Mystal said, “It’s kind of trash. It was written by slavers and colonists and white people willing to make deals with slavers and colonists. They didn’t ask anybody who looked like me what they thought about the Constitution.”
He added, “This document was without the consent of black and brown people in this country and without the consent of women. I say if that was the starting point, the very least we can do is ignore what those slavers and colonists and misogynists thought and interpret the Constitution in a way that makes sense for our modern world.”

And should you be fool enough to think he misspoke, here’s his Twitter comments from last night:
Conservatives: You can only call the Constitution crap because you live in America
Me: Meh, there are 30, 40 countries where I could do it no problem. Jamaica. France. New Zealand I assume.
Conservatives: Well, Move there!
Me: Wait are you still arguing *in favor* of free speech?— Elie Mystal (@ElieNYC) March 5, 2022
Apparently he isn’t aware of the influence the United States Constitution had on the freedoms enjoyed in those countries. Just another race-baiting, Marxist moron with no real understanding of anything he professes to be an expert on. He’s also a supporter of the 1619 Project, the widely discredited revisionist, anti-American history program.

Good times!
Elie mystal looks like a kewpie doll with that hair cut.
When I see the logistical clusterfrack of the Russian invasion of Ukraine as shown by the bunched up convoy I think “If it weren’t for the Russian nuclear arsenal we could defeat them if necessary.”
Then I read about the army doing gender training and I think “Probably not.”
My understanding of US capabilities is probably 25 years out of date anyway.
Mark Dice did a great video today on that.

When an After Action Report is made regarding the Russian incursion into Ukraine, their loss will be directly linked to their failure to complete Policy on the Military Service of Transgender Persons and Persons with Gender Dysphoria training.

Plus Putin blames the Ukrainians for fighting back:

Uh oh, the latest Face Diaper of Obedience rhetoric from the Left for their wienies who still insist upon wearing them.
“Your decision to wear a mask is none of your colleague’s business. You don’t owe anyone an explanation of why you are masking indoors, but if sharing one helps you feel less awkward, keep it brief, Durvasula advised.
‘Make it about yourself and don’t turn it into a polemic on public health and responsibility,’ she suggested. ‘If a person chooses to wear a mask that is their right, but it can turn difficult if the mask-wearer frames it as virtue.’”
(It’s their right to wear one and so there, nyah! Of course, folk who didn’t want to wear one for the same reasons or even that they’d had COVID already were just evil nazis.)

Buttplug musta fried his brain on the bodily fluids of his house “husband.”
He’ll be able to have an electric car and private security in the new North Korea-style agrarian “green” order, so he’s happy.
The tales of crooked LEO’s will never end. Back in 1970/71, The crew was delivering currency to the nyc municipal credit union across the street from city hall when they were held up and shot as the elevator doors opened up. Harry lost part of his wazoo and rug and Ray took a shotgun blast to the upper thigh but the bunch of coins in his pocket took a lot of the brunt of the shot. Ray jumps on top of Harry who was on the deck and shot the perp in the ass as he was running away. Chief of Detectives the late Albert Seedman had the area covered and the shot perp drove himself over to a hospital in brooklyn. Turns out he worked part time for Brink’s and was an instructor in the NYPD Academy. I think he got out of prison years ago.

Patty apparently never had any marbles to lose.
Maj. Gen. Douglas F. Stitt was recommend for promotion to LTG.
Glad I am out.
What a fucking clown.
He also looks like he might have taken it in the ass willingly to get promoted a few times as well.
I wonder when that general is going to transition and get his surgery. Although, he is already a pussy.
Its not the drugs.
Its the low pay!
This idiot is has been a self-serving clown since day one.

Can someone you never heard of in a sport that no one follows actually be described as a “superstar”? Much like Hack’s comment a few weeks back mentioning that anyone whoever was in adult film is described as a “porn star”. Guess that they are no supporting actors in the porn industry.
Yeah, I hear the fluffers also don’t get any respect. They don’t even show up in the credits. Even the drivers are listed in the credits in Hollywierd movies.
Sexist America underpaying women’s athletes, forcing them to traffic drugs through foreign airports. Happens every day.
Mason, are you sure that is a woman?
