Shinzo Abe's Assassination Will Scar Japan Forever
This act of violence is all the more stunning in a country known for safety. The repercussions will be felt far beyond Sunday's upper house elections.

And that's my point: gun control DOES NOT work. People will still get their hands on them if they want them bad enough.

I received what I believe to be a Phishing email purporting to be from Spectrum. The title of the email was "Your online Statement is ready." I know what the real online notification looks like. The real notification has my name, last four of my account number, etc.

But this phishing email had none of that. The email they used for their email message to display was "support@spectrum.net" with the name "Spectrum" .... but, as I hovered over the "Spectrum", the real sender's email address appeared. It was "kikistj@charter.net"

The official email that I get from Spectrum, telling me that my Spectrum Statement is ready, comes from this email:
MyAccount@spectrumemails.com

I've included a picture of a phishing email...

And yet the MSM is pretty silent about this good guy with a gun story. Probably because it goes against the narrative and proves why Republicans want citizens to be able to carry for self-defense.

Experts impressed by armed bystander's response at Greenwood mall shooting

https://www.wthr.com/article/news/s...531-26f89de8-aed4-4035-ad2f-7875ac9292e1

A new timeline from Greenwood Police show it only took 15 seconds for the Greenwood mall shooting to come to an end.

Police reviewed surveillance video that showed the moments the suspect left the food court bathroom to the time Eli Dicken pulled out his gun, aimed and took out the threat.

Autopsy results also revealed the suspect was hit eight times from about 40 yards away. Police say Dicken fired 10 rounds.

Responsible gun owner, that Dicken. Drugs are illegal. But you can still get them. Try and ban guns. The same logic applies.

New Details Emerge About The Impressive Response From The Good Samaritan Who Stopped Mall Shooting

https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-...good-samaritan-who-stopped-mall-shooting

Police said that 22-year-old Elisjsha Dicken had no prior police training and no military background and that he learned to shoot from his grandfather, CNN reported.

Dicken was at the mall Sunday with his girlfriend when the shooter emerged from the bathroom and opened fire on unsuspecting shoppers. What happened next in terms of his performance in neutralizing the shooter was simply amazing.

Dicken, using a 9mm Glock pistol, fired off 10 rounds, hitting the shooter eight times in the span of only 15 seconds and from a distance of about 40 yards away.

Greenwood Police Chief James Ison revealed in a statement Tuesday afternoon that he had made an error in previously saying that Dicken had neutralized the shooter in two minutes and that he wanted to correct the record, WRTV Indianapolis reported.

The Wall Street Journal’s Editorial Board noted that it appears that Dicken was lawfully carrying his pistol under the state’s new law that allows people to carry handguns without a permit.

“We could not find that he had a permit,” Ison said. “He was carrying legally under the constitutional carry law.”

The Daily Wire previously reported that more Americans trust a Good Samaritan armed with a gun to stop a mass shooting than police officers or federal agents, according to a Convention of States Action and Trafalgar Group survey of Americans.

The new survey found that more Americans believe that their best protection in a mass shooting situation is a nearby armed civilian, rather than police officers or federal agents. Respondents chose armed citizens as the best protection by 41.8% to 25.1% for local police and 10.3% for federal agents. About a fifth of people chose none of the above — 22.8%.

For four days in a row in early July, Toronto Pearson International Airport - the busiest in Canada, with flights to 155 cities around the world - experienced the most delays of any airport globally.

Many airport employees, whether baggage handlers or custodians, left their jobs during the pandemic and have not returned.

"Airports are having a hard time getting people to come back to work," she said.

Principal Mandy Gutierrez of Robb Elementary is put on paid leave --- two months after Uvalde mass shooting

https://www.texastribune.org/2022/07/26/uvalde-texas-robb-elementary-shooting-principal-leave/

According to an interim report by a state House committee that investigated the May 24 shooting, Gutierrez and others at the school knew the lock for Room 111, where the gunman entered and killed most of his victims, wasn’t working properly. The teacher in that classroom, Arnulfo Reyes, had reported to school officials that his classroom door didn’t always lock properly but no one prepared a work order to have it fixed, the report says.

The report also says Gutierrez never attempted to use the school’s intercom system to warn teachers and students that a gunman had entered the school. She told the committee that she used an app called Raptor to initiate a lockdown “but she had difficulty making the alert because of a bad wifi signal,” the report says.

Reyes told the committee he didn’t recall receiving an alert about the gunman.

Other infant formula makers besides Abbott have faced Cronobacter contamination and operational deficiencies, documents show

https://abcnews.go.com/US/infant-fo...tamination-operational/story?id=87268233

Some of the operational deficiencies that helped trigger the massive shutdown of Abbott Nutrition's infant formula plant earlier this year have also been found at some other companies' factories, according to an ABC News investigation of some of the other formula makers that have stepped in to help fill empty American grocery shelves in the midst of the critical nationwide shortage.

The pathogen that prompted those concerns, Cronobacter sakazakii, can be widely found in the environment -- but in infants, it can be deadly.

https://www.rferl.org/a/kosovo-serbia-border-crossing-blocked-tensions/31967812.html

The dispute over vehicles erupted in September 2021 after Kosovar authorities ordered all drivers entering Kosovo from Serbia to use temporary, 60-day, printed license plates in response to measures in Serbia against drivers from Kosovo that have been in place since 2008, when the country declared independence from Belgrade.

At that time, Serbs from northern Kosovo blocked the Jarinje and Brnjak crossings with vehicles and makeshift barricades, while Kosovo's government sent in police units and Serbian military jets and helicopters buzzed the border in a show of force.

Serbia does not recognize Kosovo’s independence nor its right to impose rules and regulations such as registering cars and trucks.

Most EU countries recognize Kosovo, though Russia and China, allies of Serbia, do not.

The EU has tried to broker a dialogue between the two Balkans neighbors for over a decade, but so far the efforts have failed to achieve a normalization of ties.

Prime Minister Albin Kurti has said Kosovo will formally apply to become a member of the European Union by the end of 2022 despite concerns over tensions with Serbia, also an EU aspirant

I can't prove it, but I do suspect the US knew of al-Zawahiri's location in Afghanistan for some time now, and chose to take him out just recently, to get maximum press coverage just before these important primary elections today. As if that would sway independents or undecideds to vote Dem, because.... of "Commander Biden."
