Jersey City Shooting ‘Targeted’ Jews, ‘Being Investigated as a Hate Crime’

  After police engaged in a gun battle Tuesday with two gunmen in Jersey City, liberals on Twitter spewed out their predictable rhetoric blaming the NRA, President Trump, and Republicans generally.

In a shootout with police in Miramar, both criminals were killed, […]

Rule 5 Sunday: Monica Ruiz
