Poway synagogue suspect "defending our nation against Jews"

The admitted shooter in the Poway synagogue shooting told a 911 operator right after the massacre that he pulled the trigger to save white people from Jews. 

As a white person, I never saw Jewish people as dangerous, but people who shoot people based on some crazy notion about their group identity are the ones of whom to be afraid.

A judge was expected to rule Friday whether a 20-year-old former college student should stand trial on charges of firing an assault rifle inside a synagogue, killing one woman and injuring three, including a rabbi and an 8-year-old girl of whom he believed the world needed to be saved from.

The suspect who admitted to the shootings at the Southern California synagogue last spring was heard on a 911 recording played Thursday at a preliminary hearing that he did it to save white people from Jews. The hearing was held to determine whether the trial should go forward. I think that would be a good idea.

The shooting took place at the Chabad of Poway synagogue on the last day of Passover.

“I’m defending our nation against the Jewish people, who are trying to destroy all white people,” the scumcrumpet, whose name will not be used here, is heard saying on the 911 call. He told the 911 operator he believed he had killed people and gave detailed descriptions of the San Diego intersection where he was parked shortly before he was taken into custody.

He never explained, nor gave any examples, how Jewish people are trying to destroy anyone.

The FBI reported that hate crimes increased by 17% in 2017 and the largest spike was anti-Semitic hate crimes. In the DOJ 2017 Hate Crime Statistics it was reported that there were more than 7,100 hate crimes and they were motivated mostly by race/ethnicity with religious bias following right behind. 

The FBI report shows there was a nearly 23% increase in religion-based hate crimes. There was a 37% spike in anti-Jewish hate crimes and this led the statistics for religious groups.

The recording was played at the hearing where witnesses also included a combat veteran who confronted the suspect and a medical examiner who described the wounds of the woman who was killed.

The alleged shooter, 20, has pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder, and an unrelated arson charge at a mosque. The murder charge, classified as a hate crime, would make him eligible for the death penalty if convicted, but prosecutors have not said what punishment they will seek.

Oscar Stewart, an Iraq combat veteran, testified that as the gunfire erupted he moved toward the suspect and screamed at him. The shooter dropped his rifle and ran away like a frightened coward.

“People were falling over each other. It was chaos,” Stewart said. “I screamed (to everyone) ‘Get down! Get out here.’”

He explained that he saw the shooter in the lobby fire two rounds and then walked toward him.

“He was firing in front of me … I was paying attention to the rifle,” Stewart said.

As the gunman struggled to reload, Stewart relied on combat training to yell at the assailant to try to rattle him, and rattle him he did.

“I told him I was going to kill him … I screamed it out really loud. I kept screaming at him,” Stewart said before the suspect dropped the rifle and ran.

During the 911 call, the shooter admitted, without prompting, that he would leave his AR-15 rifle on the passenger seat and step out of the car once law enforcement arrived, and became agitated that police had yet to arrive.

“You guys are taking a long-ass time,” he is heard saying.

San Diego Police Officer Jonathan Wiese testified that when he arrived the alleged shooter got out of the car, kneeled to the ground when ordered, and allowed himself to be handcuffed.

“His first statement was, ‘How’s your day going?’” Wiese said. He said the white supremacist then asked if he knew “what the Jews have done to our race.”

Weeks earlier alleged shooter and obvious coward tried to burn down a mosque in Escondido, where seven people on a spiritual retreat were sleeping, according to an affidavit. They awoke to flames and managed to extinguish the fire.

The suspect allegedly scrawled the name of the person suspected of carrying out shootings at two New Zealand mosques that slaughtered 51 people earlier this year, so the left didn't have President Trump to blame on that atrocity.

In a posting on the dark web, the alleged shooter wrote: "As an individual, I can only kill so many Jews."

The day prior to the synagogue shooting, the suspect legally purchased an AR-15 rifle from a San Diego gun shop, according to federal charges. According to Rep. Shiela Jackson Lee (D-TX) the AR-15 fires 50 mm rounds, so not only can it kill people, it can take out entire synagogues, mosques and Hindu temples.

Jackson Lee's claim that the AR 15 is extremely heavy would only hold true if 6.5 to 7.5 pounds is considered heavy. One of the selling points to the AR 15 is its lightness and handling.

These are the people who many on the left rely on to provide them with accurate information regarding gun control issues.

Dem staffer who doxxed GOP senators WAS NOT an intern

Jackson Cosko, the Democratic staffer arrested last week for 'doxxing' Republican senators was definitely not an "intern" for Rep. Shiela Jackson Lee (D-CA) as originally reported. The 27-year-old scumquat was actually a "fellow" paid by an "outside institution" who served as a primary adviser in Lee's Congressional office.

According to the Tennessee Star, "[w]hile [Lee] claims Cosko was an 'unpaid intern' in her office, the Washington Post reports that Cosko was actually a 'fellow.' This was confirmed by Cosko's lawyer, who said his client was a "fellow" in Jackson-Lee's office and that he was being paid by an 'outside institution.'"

The identity of the "outside institution" it isn't yet known, but a "fellow" is a lot different than an "intern." According to Lee's correspondence, Cosko was routinely trusted to advise Lee and communicate with other congressional members, especially those co-sponsoring Lee's bills.

This raises questions, as the Tennessee Star elucidated: "It seems clear Cosko isn't some unlucky and overzealous intern who got caught being a naughty boy. Rather, it seems Cosko might be a Democratic operative, paid by an outside organization, planted in an unpopular congresswoman's office possibly so he could engage in exactly the type of behavior that just got him arrested."

Federal investigators arrested Cosko last week when they discovered he was the person responsible for editing a Wikipedia article that revealed their personal date: names, addresses and phone numbers of three GOP senators. This came almost immediately after Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) ended a fiery speech defending Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh [who has since been confirmed as Justice Brett Kavanaugh].

Cosko is charged with "publishing restricted personal information, threats in interstate communication, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, witness tampering, second degree burglary, and unlawful entry," as Fox News reports.

Cosko may also be charged with threatening a fellow Congressional aide, to reveal names, social security numbers and health information of unnamed Senators' children. and may be charged for that as well.

Dem staffer who 'doxed' GOP senators faces almost 50 years in prison

Jackson Cosko, 27, was arrested Wednesday by U.S. Capitol Police after he was nabbed sneaking into the offices of Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) after 10 p.m. Tuesday and using an unauthorized computer and log-in. He faces up to 50 years in federal prison but if he actually gets that sentence, that would be too good to be true.

Cosko [a "Pajama Boy" lookalike] was charged with five federal offenses: making public restricted personal information, making threats in interstate commerce, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, and witness tampering.

The criminal complaint also charges him with second-degree burglary and unlawful entry--both are criminal offenses in Washington, D.C.

Cosko appeared before Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson on Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. He was to be detained until a pending Tuesday hearing.

Cosko worked on a fellowship for Rep. Shiela Jackson Lee (D-TX) from August until his arrest. His fellowship was terminated and the Lee team is cooperating with the investigation.

Before working for Lee, Cosko worked for Hassan for about 17 months and prior to that, he worked for the dumbest senator in all the land, Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA).

According to an affidavit, five U.S. senators' restricted personal information was posted on Wikipedia.com by the scumcrumpet. Why the website found it acceptable to print the personal information, including home addresses and personal telephone numbers, is difficult to understand. Perhaps they thought they were WikiLeaks.

Three Wikipedia edits took place almost in parallel with the Senate hearings on Senate Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. On October 2nd, similar information was posted on the pages of two more senators.

The affidavit shows that police traced the posting to IP addresses belonging to the House wired network and then found the exact computer that was accessed with Cosko's user ID and password. Bingo.

Other edits were performed by devices using the House and Senate guest wireless networks.

According to police, the creep threatened the Hassan staffer who recognized him when he broke into the lawmaker's office Tuesday night. Cosko then allegedly sent an email to the witness titled: "I own EVERYTHING" and wrote, "If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children's health information and socials" [likely their social security numbers].

Cosko faces a maximum prison sentence for the five federal offenses of 33 years, and with the Washington offenses carrying a maximum of 15 years for second-degree burglary and 6 months for unlawful entry.

He will be back in court Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. for a detention hearing.

The feckless, factless leftists on guns

"Today is yet another sad day in our country because of a senseless shooting at Ohio State University" Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (Duh-Texas) tweeted. True to her spouting off first and leaving actual fact-gathering to conservatives, Lee got it wrong, as is her wont.

For more on this moron, click here.  

The shooting at Ohio State University was what saved lives. It was the senseless knife attack that was the problem.

Yet when it was discovered that they had gotten the story wrong, the leftist fact manipulators stuck with the balderdash. 

Logic contortionist and theater critic Adam Feldman tweeted: "What's happened at Ohio State is terrible. But 'mass stabber leaves 8 people with non-threatening injuries' is why gun control matters."

No, idiot. The fact that the terrorist was stopped by a cop with a gun, preventing him from continuing to stab people, is an argument for students being allowed concealed carry permits. 

If the story can somehow fit a person's narrative, that person will twist it in the shape they want it to be in order to fit their world view.

Every violent incident needs to be scrutinized and analyzed on its own merits and facts, not some knee-jerk reaction to satisfy some belief.

Facts may be inconvenient to what we might have thought about an incident like this, but sticking to them is your best bet to being believed, with, or without alliteration.

Shiela Jackson Lee: Deep Thoughts by a Shallow Dem

Peter King (R-NY) is the Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security and has been holding hearings about radical Islam and terrorism in the USA. Some of the finest minds have given testimony on this topic, providing us with information about the dangers radical Islam can incur, but along with their take on the problems came a response from one of the most blathering idiots ever elected to public office--I refer to Shiela Jackson Lee (D-Tx).  The input from Rep. Lee is proof positive that a Yale education and an appointment as judge in no way guarantees the holder of such a background is necessarily a person with a fully functioning brain. In fact, one might go so far as to say that Ms. Lee is an idiot, but saying so would probably get you labelled a racist because that is the only response she and most liberals know how to use in retaliation to the truth. 

At the committee hearings, Peter King gave her five minutes floor time, which she used to request that right wing extremist groups be investigated along with the alleged 9/11 phone hacking of terror victims, an issue that seems to be coming from left field and having nothing to do with the issues at hand, but that's just my opinion. You see, prior to Jackson Lee opening her mouth and getting her silver tongue in gear, the committee was voicing real concerns about al-Shabaab, an al-Qaeda affiliate and how it is recruiting young American Somalis for jihad. These Islamic men are attending terrorist camps and at least 40 are known to have done so and died as a result of suicide bombings. But Jackson Lee was undaunted in her quest for the irrelevant and went on about Rupert Murdoch and those right wing extremists. Several weeks ago, she spoke about extreme Christian groups when the committee met to discuss Islamic conversions in the prison system.  This is when she threw a curve ball to the committee by mentioning the crazy Christian right who are such a danger to the country and are recruiting in the prisons for Jesus. And yes, Shiela Jackson Lee is also the same person who felt that hurricane names are "too white" and she would like them to have more "black sounding names." 

Recently, at a town hall meeting to discuss Obamacare, Jackson Lee was being asked a question by a cancer survivor. See her response on this video.  One can say that it doesn't get ruder than that. Of course when she spoke with Greta Sustern, she was even ruder when Greta tried to ask a question, so perhaps it does get ruder than that after all.   

Mark Levin also spoke about Jackson Lee and minces no words when he describes how she talks about how her constituents are ill informed.  She may be right since these are the people who voted for her, but I suspect they didn't know who she was, much the same way we didn't really know Obama--unfortunately, we still don't know Obama in spite of his incredible transparency--why is that, I wonder. 

Frick and Frack

I hope Shiela Jackson Lee does nothing to upset the findings or the work of the House Committee on Homeland Security. This issue is absolutely too important to pretend that it's equivalent to right wing extremism. She sees the killing of late-term abortion clinic doctors the same as the killing of 3000 people on that sunny day back in 2001. Since the 1970's there have been 8 murders of late-term abortion clinic doctors--a horrible thing in and of itself, but compare that to the 17 thousand people who have died at the hands of Islamic terrorists (and I refer to acts of sheer terrorism, not from formal Islamic wars, which are also too frequent to dismiss). Oh, and come to think of it, compare it to the 59 million babies who were murdered in abortion on demand clinics.  That's 8 doctors versus 59 million babies. Why don't liberals see something wrong with this?
