LA Story, Part 2,561
This guy got off easy.
This is what happens when a South Central Shitbag decides to mess with an off-duty deputy.
An off-duty Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy shot and wounded a man who confronted him with a knife today alongside the eastbound Glenn Anderson (105) Freeway near Hawthorne, officials said.
The shooting occurred near Crenshaw Boulevard about 8 a.m., said Deputy Oscar Butao of the Sheriff’s Headquarters Bureau.
Paramedics took the wounded man, a 19-year-old from Inglewood whose name was withheld, to a hospital where he was said to have stable vital signs, county fire Inspector Darryl Jacobs said.
Eastbound lanes were closed at Crenshaw Boulevard to accommodate the investigation until shortly before 1 p.m.
The deputy is a nine-year veteran assigned to the sheriff’s Lennox Station as a training officer, according to broadcast reports. He worked overnight and had just left the station when the confrontation occurred, according to broadcast reports.
The deputy, whose name was withheld, was driving his personal car, which was nearly struck by yellow Honda Prelude, deputies said.
The deputy pulled over to check his car, sheriff’s Sgt. John Hocking said.
“As he did that, the suspect pulled off also, parking in front of the deputy’s vehicle, and the suspect got out of his vehicle, pulled a knife out of his waistband and attempted to assault the deputy,” Hocking says.
“The deputy told the suspect to step back, that he was a deputy sheriff,” Hocking said. “The suspect did not, and at that point the deputy was forced to fire his on-duty weapon at the suspect, striking the suspect.”
As I said, this guy got off easy. He could have easily been capped and filled with more holes than swiss cheese, but the deputy let him off easy with just a few wounds. Let this be a lesson to the rest of the dumbasses in South Central.
The 2008 Democratic nomination process
Better swallow first. I’m specifically refusing any claims for ruined keyboards and/or monitors.
More, please. And faster
Via Emperor Misha (linked via Rachel Lucas) comes this tale of a young and energetic Hildebeest (back before she was having such trouble sleeping that she couldn’t remember the facts).
Seems that one of Hillary’s claims to “experience” was as a 27-year-old staffer for the House committee investigating Impeachment charges against then-President Richard Nixon.
But let me just tease you with this snippet:
Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat, supervised the work of 27-year-old Hillary Rodham on the committee. Hillary got a job working on the investigation at the behest of her former law professor, Burke Marshall, who was also Sen. Ted Kennedy’s chief counsel in the Chappaquiddick affair. When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation – one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman’s 17-year career.
Why?
“Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”
Emphasis mine.
So what did she do that was so bad?
So the Dems will either put up Hillary (named after Sir Edmund Hillary, don’t you know*) or B. Hussein - despite the clear problems that both of them have, and a hefty chunk of the more fervent fans of both Hillary and Obama has claimed that they would rather vote for McCain than the other Democrat, and yet people are STILL telling me that a choice to not vote for McAmnesty is a vote for Obama (ignoring the obvious question: “what if he’s not the nominee?").
This is gonna be fun. More please. And hurry it up!
* - Yes, I know that claim is false, but that fact didn’t stop her from actually saying it, did it?
