Wal-Mart Removes Guns, Ammo From Sales Floors To Deter Looters

Wal-Mart stores in "select locations" have a message for the looters and rioters who terrorized NYC, LA and other cities over the weekend: "no guns here!"

Although we tried to explain to looters why robbing a gun store probably isn't a good idea, and not just because you might get shot by the proprietor, Wal-Mart is taking no chances, and has decided to remove guns and ammunition from sales displays and sales floors and store them instead in a "secure room" on the property. This comes after the store barred customers from openly carrying guns inside last year, BI reports.

However, we noticed one interesting detail in the story: Wal-Mart locations near where the riots are happening typically don't sell firearms. In fact, looters even in Texas would need to travel quite a ways to reach a Wal-Mart that as them. This raises another question: Is Wal-Mart simply using this crisis as an excuse to stop selling guns, as corporations around the US burnish their progressive bona fides in solidarity with the movement for racial justice?

The company barred the sale of handguns in Alaska last year - the only state where they were still sold - and has repeatedly promised to stop selling guns, or tighten its restrictions on sales, following mass shootings like the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas on Valentine's Day, 2018.

Then again…

Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said Wednesday that "our problems as a nation run much deeper than one horrible event…until we as a nation confront and address these realities we will never achieve the best of what we can be."

New York State Bar Association: ‘Mandatory vaccinations for COVID-19 should be required’

The lawyers’ organization pointed out that there are practically no legal grounds to fight against forced vaccination.

ALBANY, New York, June 3, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) – The New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) wants to require all United States residents to be injected with a coronavirus vaccine. The new report dealing with the question of mandatory vaccinations was published on May 13 by NYSBA’s Task Force on COVID-19.

“When the efficacy of a COVID-19 vaccine has been confirmed, enact legislation requiring vaccination of each person unless the person’s physician deems vaccination for his or her patient to be clinically inappropriate,” recommends the NYSBA, an organization of over 24,000 lawyers whose stated goal is “to shape the development of law.”

All recommendations will be discussed “at a virtual meeting of the association’s governing body, the House of Delegates, on June 13.”

“When a vaccine becomes available, there will be a majority of Americans who want the vaccination,” the NYSBA predicted in its report, referring to statistics of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

However, the CDC statistics have nothing to do with a potential coronavirus vaccine.

They only show that in 2017, 70.4 percent of children aged 19-35 months received the combined 7-vaccine series ranging from diphtheria and tetanus all the way to chickenpox. As far as individual vaccines are concerned, the immunization against polio had the highest coverage at 92.7 percent.

While admitting that “some Americans may push back on the COVID-19 vaccination for religious, philosophical or personal reasons,” the NYSBA nonetheless argues that “for the sake of public health, mandatory vaccinations for COVID-19 should be required in the United States as soon as it is available.”

Pointing to a 1905 Supreme Court ruling which upheld the authority of states to enforce compulsory vaccination laws, the professional organization of lawyers in the state of New York says forced vaccinations “are supported by the authority of the state police power when the vaccinations are necessary to protect the health of the community.”

“Constitutional challenges under the religious freedom clause under the First Amendment and under the substantive due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment have failed, when the individual interests are not strong enough to outweigh the public benefit,” they added.

The NYSBA went on to summarize court rulings within the state of New York.

“Healthcare workers and parents of unvaccinated children have unsuccessfully challenged compulsory vaccination on administrative law grounds – questioning the NYS and NYC Department of Health’s authority in mandating flu and measles vaccinations, as well as challenging the regulations as arbitrary and capricious,” the lawyers wrote.

“The courts found the policies mandating that healthcare workers be vaccinated for influenza, and children vaccinated for measles during an outbreak, were not arbitrary and capricious and the regulations were promulgated under proper authority.”

The report argued that the alleged gravity of the coronavirus pandemic “presents compelling justification for State legislatures and Congress to mandate a COVID-19 vaccination.”

Rosenstein agrees that by August of 2017 there was no evidence of Trump-Russia collusion

He agreed that there was 'no "there" there.'

Former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein conceded on Wednesday that by August of 2017 there was no evidence that the Trump campaign had colluded with Russians to sabotage the 2016 election, even though the investigation into that allegation would persist for another year and a half.

The jaw-dropping admission came during a contentious hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, which is actively investigating the F.B.I.'s Crossfire Hurricane investigation that sought to uncover whether Trump campaign officials had colluded with Russian agents to sabotage the 2016 election.

Addressing Rosenstein during the hearing, committee member Sen. Lindsey Graham asked him: "The whole concept, that the campaign was colluding with the Russians, there was no 'there' there in August of 2017, do you agree or not?"

"I agree with the general statement," Rosenstein replied.

The revelation was just one of several bombshells the former deputy attorney general delivered before the committee. Rosenstein in many cases appeared to be admitting that he himself was significantly in the dark about the F.B.I.'s early Russian investigations. At one point he claimed that former F.B.I. Deputy Director Andrew McCabe “was not fully candid with me” regarding bureau proceedings.

He also told the committee he was unaware that an F.B.I. field office had recommended that Gen. Michael Flynn be dropped from the investigation. Rosenstein was asked by Graham if he knew that "in January of 2017, the F.B.I. field office said, 'we recommend General Flynn be removed'" from the F.B.I.'s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

"I did not," Rosenstein responded.

"Would that have mattered?" Graham asked, to which Rosenstein responded: "Yes."

Rosenstein also told senators that he would not have signed the renewal of the FISA warrant for Trump associate Carter Page if he had been aware of exculpatory information withheld from the FISA court. "If you knew then what you knew now, would you have signed the warrant application?" Graham asked him.

"No, I would not," Rosenstein said.

Rosenstein later indicated that he was not familiar with the full contents of that renewal request. Though he earlier claimed to have read it, he later conceded that he hadn’t read “every page” but that he had reviewed it and was familiar with its contents.

“My recollection of it … it was actually fairly persuasive,” he said. “It had already been approved three times. This was just a re-authorization.”

Active-duty troops deployed to DC region start to leave

Senior defense officials tell the Associated Press that U.S. active-duty soldiers brought in to help if needed with the civil unrest in the nation’s capitol are beginning to return to their home base, after two days of more peaceful demonstrations in Washington, D

WASHINGTON (AP) — Active-duty troops brought in to help if needed with the civil unrest in the nation’s capitol are beginning to return to their home base, after two days of more peaceful demonstrations in Washington, D.C., senior defense officials told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The officials said that about 200 soldiers with the 82nd Airborne’s immediate response force will be the first to leave on Wednesday, returning to their base at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. The remainder of the active-duty troops, who have all been kept at military bases outside the city in northern Virginia and Maryland, will also get pulled home in the coming days if conditions allow, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss imminent troop movements. The active-duty troops were available, but were not used in response to the protests.

The departure of the troops comes as Defense Secretary Mark Esper told reporters Wednesday that current conditions do not warrant using military forces for law enforcement in containing the protests. President Donald Trump has in recent days talked about using the military to quell violent protests in U.S. cities.

About 1,300 active-duty troops were brought in to the Capitol region early this week as protests turned violent, in the aftermath of the death in Minnesota of a black man, George Floyd, who died after a white police officer pressed his knee to Floyd’s neck for several minutes.

The active-duty unit that will be last to remain on alert is the Army’s 3rd Infantry Regiment, which is normally most visible as the soldiers who stand at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The troops, known as the Old Guard, are based close to D.C. at Fort Myer, Virginia, and have been on 30-minute alert status. So, they would continue to be prepared to respond to any emergency in the region within a half hour for as long as needed.

Pentagon leaders have consistently said there continues to be no intent to use the active-duty forces in any law enforcement capacity. They would be used to assist the National Guard or other forces.

So far, Indiana has sent about 300 National Guard troops to D.C., Tennessee has sent about 1,000 and South Carolina has sent more than 400.

These Riots Are Sophisticated: The Ideology and Method of the Antifa Insurgency

The far-left has perfected the art of rioting

We are witnessing glimmers of the full insurrection the far-left has been working toward for decades. The killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis was merely a pre-text for radicals to push their ambitious insurgency. In a matter of hours, after the video of Floyd began circulating the internet, militant antifa cells across the country mobilized to Minnesota to aid Black Lives Matter rioters. Law enforcement and even the state National Guard have struggled to respond in Minnesota.

Portland, Oakland, Los Angeles, Dallas and Atlanta are just some of the other cities waking up and finding smoldering ruins where businesses once operated. Nearly 30 other cities experienced some form of mass protest or violent rioting. At least three people have been killed so far.

Antifa, the extreme anarchist-communist movement, has rioting down to an art. The first broken window is the blood in the water for looters to move in. When the looting is done, those carrying flammable chemicals start fires to finish the job. Footage recorded in Minneapolis and other cities show militants dressed in black bloc— the antifa uniform — wielding weapons like hammers or sticks to smash windows. You see their graffiti daubed on smashed up buildings: FTP means ‘Fuck the Police’; ACAB stands for ‘All Cops Are Bastards’; 1312 is the numerical code for ACAB.

Last night, rioters reached the gates of the White House, possibly the most secure location on Earth. There, they chipped away at the barriers piece-by-piece while law enforcement struggled to respond. One Secret Service officer reportedly had a brick thrown at his head. Footage recorded at the scene showed him blood-soaked. Police were eventually able to repel masked rioters by using pepper spray and tear gas. That worked, for now.

The militants uprising across the country want a revolution and they don’t care who or what has to be destroyed in the process. If their comrades die, they are elevated as martyrs in propaganda. Death is celebrated.

At its core, BLM is a revolutionary Marxist ideology. Alicia Garza, Opal Tometi and Patrisse Cullors, BLM’s founders, are self-identified Marxists who make no secret of their worship of communist terrorists and fugitives, like Assata Shakur. They want the abolishment of law enforcement and capitalism. They want regime change and the end of the rule of law. Antifa has partnered with Black Lives Matter, for now, to help accelerate the break down of society
