And they should be at DEFCON 1 or 2. Here's why I think that their standard operating procedure (SOP) is far too tolerant.

It seems there's a third rate social media site, Nextdoor. People create an account there to get the latest news about their neighborhood, as your account also has your geographic location. I got an account there a few years ago because of a crime problem, and that was that.

How Does Something Like This Happen?
I caught this one over on Knuckledraggin My Life Away (Where bad choices make good stories), which is an eclectic site that if you aren't reading at least irregularly, you should. All kinds of good folks hang out there, and they'll make damned near anyone welcome.
The story, Two years later..., gives a link to an absolutely fiendish case of child abuse and filicide, which you can read in Former NYPD Cop Found Guilty of Killing Son.
From the article:
LONG ISLAND - Former NYPD officer Michael Valva has been found guilty of murder in the death of his 8-year-old son.
Michael Valva, 40, allegedly forced his 8-year-old son, Thomas, to sleep in an unheated garage in below-freezing temperatures in January 2020, leading to the child's death.
Valva was found guilty on all charges against him, including the highest charge, second-degree murder.
He faces 25 years to life in prison.
An investigation by authorities had revealed evidence of alleged physical abuse and neglect by Valva and his then-girlfriend, Angela Pollina, between September 2017 and January 2020, including reports from the East Moriches School District alleging that on numerous occasions, Thomas and his brother arrived at school hungry, cold, soiled, or marked with scratches, bruises, and cuts.
This guilty verdict will not bring back 8-year-old Thomas, who suffered immense cruelty at the hands of his father, the same person who was entrusted to protect, provide and unconditionally love Thomas and his older brother Anthony," said Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond Tierney. "While there is nothing that we can do to bring Thomas back, we are satisfied with the jury’s decision."
I've got many more questions than answers on this one.
Michael Valva was an NYPD cop. How do you suppose he treated citizens he interacted with? How the hell was this twisted, sadistic son-of-a-bitch allowed to get on the police force to begin with?
Then there's Angelina Pollina, Valva's significant other. Two adult psychopaths in the same house at the same time, caring for children. No one saw anything? No one ever heard anything? This situation is not something anyone wakes up some morning and decides to do. Yeah, nice morning to start torture on the kids.
Each one of these sick SOBs has parents, one way or another. Both Valva and Pollina have a mother and father, and those parents know, beyond the shadow of any doubt at all, what their children are like. I'd bet they also knew the abuse the kids were suffering and never said a word.
How does this crap actually happen?

IQ, EQ, and Whatever...
I got this off F**kB**k, and it came from some place in the Philippines. Link to a FB page:
Teresa Instructional Materials
From the blub:
According to Psychologists, there are four types of Intelligence:
1) Intelligence Quotient (IQ)
2) Emotional Quotient (EQ)
3) Social Quotient (SQ)
4) Adversity Quotient (AQ)
1. Intelligence Quotient (IQ): this is the measure of your level of comprehension. You need IQ to solve math's, memorize things, and recall lessons.
2. Emotional Quotient (EQ): this is the measure of your ability to maintain peace with others, keep to time, be responsible, be honest, respect boundaries, be humble, genuine and considerate.
3. Social Quotient (SQ): this is the measure of your ability to build a network of friends and maintain it over a long period of time (Ha! Ha!Ha! Ha!Ha!Ha! Oh yeah, we sure see a lot of that these days).
People that have higher EQ and SQ tend to go further in life than those with a high IQ but low EQ and SQ. Most schools capitalize on improving IQ levels while EQ and SQ are played down (which is a fucking lie, but keep going - MJ).
A man of high IQ can end up being employed by a man of high EQ and SQ even though he has an average IQ (In other words, you'll end up working for a popular, lying dumb-ass).
Your EQ represents your Character, while your SQ represents your Charisma. Give in to habits that will improve these three Qs, especially your EQ and SQ.
Now there is a 4th one, a new paradigm:
4. The Adversity Quotient (AQ): The measure of your ability to go through a rough patch in life, and come out of it without losing your mind.
When faced with troubles, AQ determines who will give up, who will abandon their family, and who will consider suicide.
Parents please expose your children to other areas of life than just Academics. They should adore manual labour (never use work as a form of punishment), Sports and Arts.
Develop their IQ, as well as their EQ, SQ and AQ. They should become multifaceted human beings able to do things independently of their parents.
Finally, do not prepare the road for your children. Prepare your children for the road.
The End.
She isn't serious. She can't be, but what truly noble delusions she has. Then reality sets in like a chainsaw.
If you believe what you read, the official average IQ is 100. Anything below 80 is sub-human (I think Chimpanzees are around 70, porch monkeys at 75, Democrats are 76). Genius level is 145 and higher. Solid genius is 150. Now me, having been tested and retested by an elite cadre of awestruck educational professionals quite early in my train wreck of a life, I'm around 110. Likely 110, maybe 115 on a good day. That means I'm just smart enough to know when I'm going to get hosed, but not smart enough to know how to avoid it.
My EQ, the ability to keep the peace with others (or something similar) is off the scale, mainly because the scale doesn't go into negative numbers. Maintain peace? Respect boundaries? Give me a fucking break.
Now my SQ, my innate ability to build a network of friends and maintain it, fluctuates constantly with the state of my financial success or lack thereof. You want to know if you've got any real friends? Just party until your money runs out, and you'll find 'em.
Then there's my AQ, my Adversity Quotient. It's off the charts in the other direction. I'm not all that bright, I can't keep the peace with the other idiots I'm forced to share the world with, and I spend most of my time either broke or badly bent. If my AQ wasn't off the charts high, I'd have shot myself and hit entropy sixty-five years back. As it is, I'm a whiskey drinking gun owner with a bad disposition.
Can you blame me?
Crap like this gets on my very last nerve.
Off to Siberia for Political Reeducation
I'll tell you one thing about Russia - they don't fuck around over there. Over here in the United States we have civil rights which includes the almighty eighth. It's probably not good for us, but the founding fathers thought it had merit, and maybe back then it did.
Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
WNBA star Brittney Griner has been transferred to a Russian penal colony after being sentenced to nine years in prison for allegedly possessing cannabis oil, according to the Associated Press.Griner was moved from a detention center on November 4, according to her legal team, but they do not know where the penal colony she will be transferred to is located.
Yeah, Vlad? Yeah, it's me. Oh, fine, fine... couldn't be better! You? <pause> Say Vlad, you know that big jungle bunny you got over there? Black rug muncher, busted her on hash oil. Yeah, plays B-Ball. Yeah, I know all B-Ball players are black... yeah, I know white men can't jump. No, I can't jump either... look, Vlad, I gotta get her back. What'll you take for her? <pause> Okay, but I want the spook too. Sure, I can do that. Are you thinking a couple months? More? <pause> I don't really care. Make her appreciate the U.S. a little more, maybe. <pause> Okay, thanks Vlad. Best to what's her name and the kids. Click

Officer Being Railroaded
Getting right to the point, LawDog, he of the The Lawdog Files, is being railroaded. I got this from the Old NFO on his little slice of information here: LawDog Raffle Items. The deal is that a pile of nice gear is being raffled off to help cover LawDog's expenses, and trust me when I say that these expenses could be extremely significant.
Shortening the news to one paragraph that everyone reading this hound can understand, LawDog's real name is Ian Hugh McMurtrie, and up until recently he was employed by the Texas Wichita County Sheriff's Department in various capacities, achieving the rank of lieutenant. The 'Dog got into a dust up with a large prisoner and subdued him. Given that the prisoner was large, strong, and an experienced brawler, plus was under the influence of an interesting cocktail of controlled substances, I'd say a hickory massage was justified, and I'd combine that with bear repellent and a cattle prod. Ian didn't, but he did get the prisoner subdued, and the prisoner never filed any complaints about his treatment. The sheriff doesn't see it that way.
Read more here, at Former Deputy Reindicted for Allegedly “fish Hooking” Inmate by Larry Statser as published on July 23, 2022.
From the article: As the inmate was being booked into jail, Wichita County Sheriff David Duke said the inmate was creating a disturbance, and McMurtrie responded.
The rumor here is that Sheriff David Duke holds an elected position, and is afraid that Ian McMurtrie will run against him - and win. So, eliminate the competition.
My disclaimer is this. I don't know Ian McMurtrie, AKA LawDog. I've never met him in person, and I've only read him a few times on his blog. I bought one or two of his books and read them, and based on that I probably wouldn't go out drinking with the man. He strikes me as being a bit arrogant and something of a blow-hard. That said, he should not be railroaded - which is what is happening to him.
The man has worked over twenty years in law enforcement, and you don't last that long by abusing people. He's done a good job for the community, and so - buy a ticket. Use the link here:
My thanks to everyone for reading.
