Mom of US veteran murdered in NYC blasts Bragg for Trump charges: calls it "nonsense"

Ms. Brame joined "Fox & Friends" on Wednesday where she spoke about Bragg after he claimed that nobody is "above the law" after he had former President Trump indicted on 34 garbage charges that have even gone beyond the statute of limitations.

"If no one is above the law, then I don't understand how Alvin Bragg could dismiss murder and gang assault indictments against two of the people involved in the murder of my son," said Brame.

The U.S. Army veteran, a married father of three, was stabbed to death in Harlem in 2018. The killer was convicted and sentenced to 20 years to life in prison, but Brame has criticized Bragg for offering plea deals to two other defendants.

Brame said that murderers are above the law in New York City.

"We see it every single day in the Black and Brown communities. Every day, all day. Everyone is above the law. They're not even making it to the DA's office."

Of course, that wouldn't be the case if it was a cop shooting an armed suspect, or if a white person kills a person of color, even if it happened in self defense. In the latter case, to use Nancy Pelosi's understanding of the law, that person would have the opportunity to prove his innocence in a court of law, because he or she would be presumed guilty.

"They're being released from the precincts with a desk appearance ticket and a referral to a community-based organization that has shown no measurable outcomes of effectiveness of what they're doing with our millions and billions of tax dollars."

Brame said New Yorkers are seeing rising crime "every single day" and that Alvin Bragg is doing "absolutely zero" about the problem.

Ms. Brame ended by saying that she plans to vote for Trump again in the 2024 election.

"I am a proud Black conservative," she told Ainsley Earhardt.

Brame joined a panel made up of Republicans and Democrats, who also disagreed with the decision to bring charges against Trump for the alleged offenses.

Correa, who served in the U.S. Army in Afghanistan, was stabbed to death in Harlem on October 19, 2018, by two brothers, their sister, and a fourth man.

"Why would you dismiss murder charges against half of the participants, when the murder and their roles were caught on video?" Brame asked last year in an open letter to Bragg.

"The video, the facts, the evidence, and the law about the murder did not change in three years – the only thing that changed was the District Attorney," she said. "Our family and our community deserve better."

Well, they saw Kyle Rittenhouse being attacked and his life was in danger. He had to use deadly force in self defense, but because he is white, he was labeled guilty by the media even before the trial acquitted him. Video evidence isn't enough when it goes against the left's narrative.

Czech gov't wants constitutional change to let citizens fire back at jihadists

The Czech government is pushing to introduce a constitutional change that will allow its citizens to use guns against Islamic jihadists.

The Washington Post however, laughed at the idea and said "Never mind that there are fewer than 4,000 Muslims in this country of 10 million people--gun purchases spiked. One shop owner in East Bohemia, a region in the northern center of the Czech Republic, told a local paper that people were scared of a 'wave of Islamists.' 

So they're saying 'how can there be a wave of Islamists with only 4 thousand Muslims?' 

Well, it doesn't really take a wave. It doesn't even take a village. It takes one fundamentalist with a car, a knife, a truck, a gun, a pressure cooker and so on, to kill non-believers.

And with the wave of refugees flooding into borderless Europe, it makes good sense to be a country that is armed and dangerous. If Europe remains a soft target for Islamists, it's going to get worse.

Czech President Milos Zeman urged citizens to arm themselves agains a possible "super Holocaust" carried out by Muslim terrorists. He even had the audacity to use the politically incorrect term 'Muslim'. 

Now the Czech interior ministry is pushing for a constitutional change to allow citizens to actually defend themselves against terrorists. Imagine that.

The vote comes in a few months and must be approved by Parliament.

The Czech Republic has about 800,000 registered firearms and 300,000 with gun permits. To purchase a gun you must be 21, pass a gun knowledge test and have no criminal record. By law, you can use your weapon to protect your property or when in danger, but must prove you face a real threat.

If somebody is screaming "Allahu Akbar" and trying to run you and your family over with an 18-wheeler, is that considered a real threat?

France, in its incredible lack of wisdom, pushed for stricter gun law policies in the wake of the 2015 Paris terror attacks. 

That makes perfect suicidal sense.
