Fatal Crashes, Killings And Suicides

“Through The Roof” In Natrona County

Yes, yes, booze and cowboyitis also play their part; but Wyoming keeps its First in the Nation suicide designation largely cuz of all them guns. You’re drunk and low and a little scraped up by life and… thar she blows! off your head.

Lauren Vickers, a neighbor, told the New York Post that the family had been trouble ever since moving into the neighborhood in 2022 and the kids were clearly not being taken care of.

‘There were nights where the mom would lock him and his sister out the house. And they would be banging on the back door, just screaming like ‘Mom! mom! mom!’ and crying. It was absolutely devastating,’ she said. 

She added that Marcee was often clearly intoxicated, even when driving her children [ … ] to school. 

‘I would find her in the driveway, passed out, with the car running and blaring music early in the morning,’ Vickers added.

No one seems to be able to keep it down in Lansing, starting with the super-rapey football team in 2016 (Rape Captain here), moving on to gymnastics in 2018, in which the school’s president came very close to going to prison (if an actually jailed university leader is your cup of tea, try Penn St former prez Graham Spanier), and settling most recently on ex-football coach, highest paid person at the university, and phone sex enthusiast/accused sexual abuser Mel Tucker.

Now I want you to realize that with a heap of sex shit like this comes unbelievably expensive, endlessly filed and refiled, litigation. Never one of the world’s great public universities – mainly because — notice? — nothing really matters to it except athletics, for which it is happy to humiliate/sacrifice itself – MSU now spends most of its time dispensing hundreds of millions of dollars to claimants and batting down not very nice remarks about itself from the governor. Bedlamite trustees and massively projected images of Hitler during football games round out the bad joke that is MSU. I’d say there’s a lesson about big university sports in all of this, but that would never be true. With guns as with football, Americans are always eager to destroy themselves.

They keep updating as reams of evidence that this madman should never have been in a public school come in. At 13, he’d already threatened to shoot up a school; at 14, he did it. His father kept multiple huge guns in the home, and UD is pretty confident that one of his ARs – easily accessible to his mentally ill son? – did the deed.

So… we’ve already corralled three probable enablers – negligent parent, indifferent school administrators, and inept law enforcement. Mes petites – you’d think in a country with 450 million or so guns, and routine mass killings, some effort would be made to identify likely mass killers. But guns are considered beautiful here; a 14 year old handling an AR is a beautiful thing. His classmates report he never spoke – completely alienated, it seems. Completely out of it. Rarely attended. Pity the teachers compelled by idiot administrators to harbor a student who probably frightened them.

The local county is Trumpian. God forbid you’d vote for anyone who talks about any form of gun legislation. The county got what it wished for: virtually no control of weapons. Check it out. Scroll and keep scrolling until you get to Georgia.

Every country has mentally ill people. Only America arms them, Adam Gopnik writes.

UPDATE: Oh – and get ready for the lawsuits. Abigail Zwerner’s forty million dollar suit against the Newport News Public Schools is humming along.

ANOTHER UPDATE: As with so many other school shooters, blatant mental health problems, fucked up parent, fucked up school administrators, fucked up law enforcement, guns all over the place. Dad let this child – at age 13, and probably before – handle all the weapons.

A perfect storm here, and a perfect idiot could have seen this before it broke. It’s very easy to see the father in court, and it’s even easier to see the school district sued for tens of millions of dollars. The monster the father made (it’s not clear the mother is at all involved – the parents are divorced, and it looks as though the shooter lived with his gun-totin’ pa) will never get out of prison. Might even get the death penalty.

AGAIN AN UPDATE: Mother a career criminal. Howdy.

La Dee Dah.

Wotta shocker. Daddy’s been arrested. Let’s see…

[F]our counts of involuntary manslaughter, two of second degree murder and eight counts of cruelty to children.

The Crumbleys also got involuntary manslaughter. They’re both serving ten year sentences.

They are hovering dangerously close to this woman’s naughty bits. And masturbation, like pornography, is non-procreative and non-mutual, and therefore very bad, as this woman’s writings – lustily endorsed by our perhaps next vice-president – make clear.

“Pornography is … increasingly associated with relationship troubles, including greater divorce risks — interestingly, especially if married women watch it.” 

Now I want you to banish from your thoughts entirely the already famous first scene of Nicole Kidman’s new film Babygirl because this will not do at all, as it features a married woman who not only prefers porn, but prefers BDSM porn, to the tender procreative uh… arms of her husband. Look away!

******************

Negative capability, Keats tells us, involves the ability to keep two contradictory thoughts in your mind at the same time. In this particular case, we must make mental room for a president who seeks out, fucks, and pays porn stars (but UD, says the anti-pornster, this is fine because he’s not a married woman), and a vice president heavily excited by people who want to outlaw porn.

No way.

Boy, 8, Dies after Shooting Himself with Gun

Left in Mum’s Car while she Shopped

***********************************

And even better!

‘The state of Utah, where the shooting took place, does not have any laws to prosecute those failing to secure an unattended firearm... The state also has no laws requiring unattended firearms to be stored in certain ways.‘ I mean, you know, just go to it!

Folie à moitié du pays.

Unlike the proposed congestion fee in Manhattan that did not go into effect, the fee here is not one-size-fits-all. Here in the Hamptons, the fees charged will vary with the value of the automobile. Cars with low value, such as old Toyota Corollas, will be charged $5 per entry. Cars of midsize value, up to $60,000, will be charged $50 per entry. Cars valued up to $100,000 will be charged $200 per entry, and cars valued over that will be charged $999 per entry. The idea is to go easy on the locals, but hit the wealthy with a fee they wouldn’t mind but would seem appropriate. By the way, for cars valued over $250,000, the fee is zero. We are happy to have the ultra-, ultra, ultra-rich here. And though they will pay no fee, voluntary contributions will be appreciated, either by check, cash, stocks, bitcoin or money order. All will be tax deductible.

Trump Contorts Himself on Abortion in Search of Political Gain

If health authorities look away while subcultures largely refuse to vaccinate their children, eventually sick and dying children will not be confined to those subcultures.

Covid, measles — these have run rampant in vaccine-resistant ultraorthodox communities. In New York, one young ultraorthodox man recently contracted polio.

In Israel the attitude seems to be it is not worth it to rouse the wrath of the violence-prone ultraorthodox by insisting… Here in the States, we haven’t done much better.

Now look what we’ve got.

Gaza’s Polio Outbreak Won’t Spare Israelis

The country’s unvaccinated ultra-Orthodox population is at risk of contracting the disease

We should be terrified by the polio outbreak in Gaza, another mark of the unspeakable suffering and degradation of the innocents in that conflict.

And because Israel has allowed its primitives to reject modern science, all of its efforts to defend its population against enemies may come tumbling down via warfare directed against a group so absolutely lost that it doesn’t even believe in the germ theory of disease.

… Harvard’s own Rector of the Upcoming Cathophate, Adrian Vermeule. Here’s his latest press appearance:

[JD Vance] spoke in 2022 at a New Right academic conference alongside Harvard professor Adrian Vermeule, who believes conservatives should legislate morality by allowing judges to rule against marriage equality and abortion laws for the “Common Good.”

Watch for Vermeule’s stock to rise as his brother in theocracy strides like a colossus across the length and breadth of this our land.

“There’s like a whole section of downtown Minneapolis that they call Little Mogadishu … People are frequently hatcheted to death in the street.” J.D. Vance

**************************

The frequency of hatcheting in downtown Minneapolis

Baffles sociologists and other urban analysts

The normative behavior is mass murder with a gun

What motivates these deviants who don’t know how it’s done?

Talk about a candidate for re-education camp. Go here, lad:

‘[T]he occasional crackle of the firing range is almost soothing.’

An elderly constable in a commode

Unholstered his big loaded Glock

That was the only way that he knowed

To free up his piss-swollen cock

But – you know – he’s human

Had something on his mind

Tried to recall lines from Schumann…

And then he was needing to dry his behind

Cuz he had to do

Numbers One and Two

“Ah! That’s better! And now lemme

Forget for the rest of the day that I left my semi

Out here for all the little tykes

Who come to court on school field trips

And find a toy to let them strike

Classmates who give them lip.”
