‘Smart’ home devices carry risks
Convenience. Americans pay for convenience and today’s “smart” devices, wired to the Internet, provide convenience in spades. While Internet service is pretty good, there’s always a chance it could fail, crippling “smart” devices. They also come with a darker side that most people don’t contemplate, in that companies or unauthorized…
THE PART OF GOV THAT ACTUALLY ‘LISTENS’… Content of tech devices belongs to the government
I've never been a fan of Alexa or similar devices. It's just too easy for big tech (or big government) to literally spy on you in your home. It's like 1984 only instead of the government mandating everyone put one of these in their homes, they get people to not…
$150/HR? Judge Benitez unswayed by Quisling Ryan Busse’s lame Declaration to the Court
The good news is that the anti-gun left paid Quisling Ryan Busse $150 an hour for a 7-page Declaration to the Court in the California Magazine case Duncan v. Bonta. The even better news is that California was the one spending the frivolous expenditure. Read the Declaration... it's so good…
THUGS DON’T CARE: 86-year-old man killed by robbers was ‘a man of God’, ‘a pillar of the community’
Welcome to Chicago. Where young thugs with stolen guns prowl the streets in stolen cars looking for more victims. And sometimes they savagely beat their victims. Other times they kill their victims.

STIRRING THE POT: Here’s what anti-gun agitprop looks like re: F-35 crash
Here's what anti-gun agitprop looks like. So, we're supposed to believe that some militia man (ooh, those evil militias!) used his mega-powerful (MAGA-powerful?) .50 caliber BMG rifle to down an F-35 at least a half-mile away (at best straight up, more likely further away if the jet wasn't immediately above…
POTENTIALLY GOOD NEWS: California magazine ban struck down for second time…
Granted this is from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals at the federal level (and Illinois is in the Seventh Circuit), but the news today out of California is good. Judge Roger Benitez, aka St. Benitez, has struck down Cali's magazine ban for the second time in Duncan v. Bonta.…
Biden appoints ‘Commie’ Harris to lead his new ‘Office of Gun Control’
Poor Commie Harris. America's "best looking" Vice-President couldn't find a crumb of competence on the floor even if had her kneepads on. She did such a great job leading Biden's response on the border invasion. And her performance in other areas outside the bedroom have been less than memorable as…
BLOG THREATS: ‘Jennifer Koniarski’ threatens Second City Cop? Bold strategy, Cotton! We’ve gotten plenty in our time as well…
So yesterday, fellow Illinois blog Second City Cop was threatened by a woman. She claimed "her case" was "her business" and to remove it from SCC. Or else. What was this case? It involved Jennifer Koniarski who suffered an ankle injury in her third week at Chicago's Police Academy in…

Ukraine’s heard some pushback on ‘transgendered’ spokesman’s comments threatening to hunt down and deliver ‘justice’ to those opposed to endless war in Ukraine
The guy pretending to be a woman while acting as the spokesman for the Ukrainian military (despite not speaking Russian or Ukrainian) apparently stepped over the line last week when he threatened to hunt down and "deliver justice" to so-called "Russian propagandists" around the world. Our World War II veterans…
