Crazy People Are Dangerous

Posted on

 

Say hello to Hannah Roemhild, an opera singer from Middletown, Connecticut, who is a Bernie Sanders supporter and also crazy:

Hannah Roemhild, a Connecticut opera singer who posted negative things about President Donald Trump on Facebook, was named by authorities as the woman accused of breaching security checkpoints at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
One post on her Facebook page contained a sign reading “not my president” in reference to Trump. In 2016, she indicated support for Bernie Sanders on social media. She’s a registered Democrat, according to Connecticut records.
Roemhild drove a black SUV through two security checkpoints at Mar-a-Lago, leading to shots being fired by authorities protecting Trump’s Palm Beach property, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Department.
The incident location was given by authorities as “Mar-a-Lago main entrance.” In the media advisory, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Department reported that the Florida Highway Patrol was “in pursuit of a black SUV” when it deviated to Mar-a-Lago. They now say that SUV was being driven by Hannah Roemhild. . . .
Ric Bradshaw, sheriff of Palm Beach County, said that at about 11:38 a.m. on January 31, 2020, a Florida Highway Patrol officer working a security job at the posh Breakers hotel in West Palm Beach was notified by security that they had a “white female who was acting erratically that was actually up on top of her car doing some kind of a dance.”
Roemhild then got inside the black SUV. The officer walked up to the window to get her attention, and she was “fooling around on the side by where the console was,” according to the sheriff. She tried to put the vehicle in reverse. He kept tapping the window. When she looked like she was putting the vehicle in drive, the officer smashed the window to grab the steering wheel, but it “didn’t work,” said the sheriff. She then drove off.
He caught up with her and then lost her in traffic. She drove toward Mar-a-Lago.
When a pursuit ignited, and she headed toward the president’s estate, authorities weren’t sure what they were dealing with at first, Bradshaw said.
“We didn’t know if it was someone with a car bomb or someone who was going to hit as many pedestrians as possible,” said Bradshaw in a news conference. At that point, authorities opened fire. It was a rental vehicle. She “crashed through” two checkpoints, according to Bradshaw. Guards moved out of the way just in time. . . .
Authorities say Roemhild fled Mar-a-Lago after the gunfire was directed at her vehicle.
The woman was ultimately confronted and arrested at a local motel. The FBI, sheriff’s department and Secret Service are all investigating, and they haven’t interviewed Roemhild yet. There were two females in the vehicle by that point. Roemhild picked up the second woman but that was after the Mar-a-Lago incident, Bradshaw said.

I’m not saying all Bernie Sanders supporters are dangerous, but . . .

Well, hang on, maybe I am saying that. Remember that James Hodgkinson, who opened fire on Republican congressmen in June 2017, was a Bernie bro, and undercover video by James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas shows Bernie’s campaign staff is cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, so it does seem as if there might be a pattern here.




 

Violence Against Women Update

Instagram + Snapchat = rape:

A University of Utah football player was arrested Thursday after police say he kidnapped and raped a 17-year-old girl.
The alleged victim told police she met Terrell Perriman, a 20-year-old wide receiver for the team, on Instagram and they connected on Snapchat. The girl told police Perriman sent her sexually graphic videos and photos and requested the same from her.
The girl then went to Perriman’s apartment on Friday, where he took her into the bedroom and refused to let her leave unless she gave Perriman oral sex, according to the statement.
“The victim stated that she started crying because she wanted to leave and she was scared,” a statement of probable cause said. The girl tried to leave the room, and Perriman allegedly stood in front of the door blocking her exit.
Perriman also allegedly took the girl’s phone away and held it out of her reach so she couldn’t call for help.
The victim said Perriman then pulled down his pants and pulled down the girl’s shorts and raped her.
Perriman faces felony charges of kidnapping, rape and enticing a minor and a misdemeanor charge of dealing in material harmful to a minor.
Salt Lake City police Detective Greg Wilking said police have “some indication” there could be more victims and urged individuals to come forward, according to the Salt Lake Tribune.
“Often in these kinds of cases, there’s not just one victim,” he added. “This is behavior that’s repeated.”
A three-star recruit out of Miami Central High School, Perriman was a 2018 redshirt who played 10 games in 2019.

Let me ask you ladies: If a guy sends you “sexually graphic videos and photos” and then you go over to his apartment, what do you think is going to happen once that door closes behind you?

Far be it from me to defend Terrell Perriman — who, however, must be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law — but I’ve got a 17-year-old daughter, and I pray she would never be such a fool as to trust a guy who would even think of sending “sexually graphic videos and photos.” But this is just another case of violence against women that feminists won’t notice, for some reason . . .

‘Living the Dream’ With @_32baby.k9_

Posted on

 

Last weekend’s celebration of Martin Luther King Day in San Antonio, Texas, featured a hiphop concert in the city’s River Walk district:

The 19-year-old accused of shooting and killing two men and injuring five others at a River Walk-area bar on Sunday appears to have been scheduled to perform at the music event where the incident took place.
An Instagram account belonging to suspect Kiernan Williams contains a photo of the flyer for “Living the Dream,” the music event hosted at Ventura Sunday night. Williams’ stage name “32Baby K9” is included on the promotional graphic. He touted the event on his Instagram account as his second show and asked his supporters to ask him for discounts on admission.
Robert Jay Martinez, 20, and Alejandro Robles, 25, were killed at the event. A woman, 46, and four male victims ranging in age from 16 to 19, are expected to survive their injuries, police said.
Williams will face two counts of capital murder and other charges, Police Chief William McManus said.
Williams was arrested Monday afternoon. After being interviewed by police, he told a scrum of reporters and cameras to “follow” him on Instagram. He also admitted to shooting the two, but he did not know them. He said the disagreement started because one of the victims was upset that Williams “bumped” into him.
“He told me because I bumped into him he was going to kill me,” Williams said while being escorted to a police vehicle in handcuffs.

 

You see that the “Dream” in the title of this event was a reference to MLK’s famous “I Have a Dream” speech, but I don’t recall anything about shooting a couple of Mexicans in the club in that speech. Kiernan (a/k/a “32babyK9”) claims that he was acting in self-defense:

Witnesses on scene said the shooter, later identified as 19-year-old Kiernan Christopher Williams, got into a verbal and physical confrontation with 20-year-old Robert Jay Martinez III during a concert at Ventura Bar, according to an arrest affidavit.
One witness said they had turned away from the argument when they heard the gunfire erupt, the affidavit said. Another witness said they saw Williams intentionally shoot Martinez, the document continued.
Williams then continued to fire his weapon into the crowded venue, hitting six other people, police said.
Martinez died on scene with a gunshot wound to the chest. The second victim, 25-year-old Alejandro Robles, was shot once in the back and later died at the hospital. . . .
Witnesses were able to identify Williams from a photo lineup, the affidavit said. He was arrested Monday near the 100 block of S. Zarzamora Street.
After his arrest, Williams told reporters he acted in self-defense as he was put into the back of a police vehicle.

How is it “self-defense” when you shoot seven people, including a 46-year-old woman? Even if it could be shown that Williams had reasonable grounds to believe Martinez was a threat, he’s still got to explain why he kept firing more or less randomly into the crowd. But my hunch is “32babyK9” hasn’t spent a lot of time studying Texas law, so he’s probably going to be “living the dream” in prison the rest of his life.


 

Probably Not a Trump Voter

Posted on Comments

 

Wild guess. Just going out on a limb here:

A man who had been watching the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump on Tuesday allegedly choked and punched his girlfriend in a Pennsylvania motel room when she wanted to watch something else, according to charging documents.
Lonnie D. Clark, 53, who lives at the northern York County motel, faces charges of strangulation, simple assault and harassment.
Police responded to the Scottish Inn at about 7:45 p.m. Tuesday after Clark’s girlfriend called 911. The woman reported that Clark had assaulted her and that she had left the room, documents state.
Once Fairview Township Police officers arrived, they spoke with Clark’s girlfriend, noting that she had red marks on her neck and right cheek.
The woman told police that Clark had been drinking alcohol all day while watching the impeachment trial and “was upset,” although documents do not state what caused his anger.
When the woman told Clark she “would like to watch something else,” Clark began to curse at her and called her “dumb” and “stupid.”
She tried to talk to Clark while seated on his lap, but he began to choke her with his hands, causing her to have trouble breathing, documents state.
The woman broke free and tried to leave, but Clark punched her twice and pushed her several times. Clark grabbed her around the neck again and punched her when she attempted to leave a second time, according to documents.
She eventually was able to get to the bathroom, where she hid until Clark left. She then ran out of the room and reached the motel’s main office, where she called 911.
“She advised that she was scared to come back to the room until police arrived,” documents state. . . .
Clark was arraigned on the charges and was released on $5,000 unsecured bail. He has a preliminary hearing before District Judge Scott J. Gross scheduled for Feb. 24, according to online court dockets.

You beat up your girlfriend because she doesn’t want to watch the impeachment hearing. Also, you’re living in a $44-a-night motel room. You might want to reconsider you life choices. Just sayin’ . . .

The ratings for the hearings have not been very impressive.


 

Hint: They’re Not ‘Supreme’

Posted on Comments

 

These three losers — Luke Austin Lane, 21, Jacob Kaderli, 19, and Michael Helterbrand, 25 — decided that what they needed to do was to overthrow the government and start a race war:

Police have arrested three men in northern Georgia who are suspected of belonging to a violent white supremacist group called The Base, saying that they were plotting to commit murder and that they belonged to a criminal street gang.
They’re the second trio of suspected Base members to be arrested this week; the FBI announced [Jan. 16] that it arrested three other men in Maryland.
A fourth man, from Wisconsin, also accused of being a member of the group, was charged on Friday with conspiracy in connection with vandalism of a synagogue as part of a nationwide series of attacks on minority-owned properties.
The Floyd County, Ga., Police Department says Luke Austin Lane, 21, Michael John Helterbrand, 25, and Jacob Kaderli, 19, were “allegedly involved in a white supremacist group with plans to overthrow the government” and to kill a married couple whom they identified as having high-profile roles in the far-left group Antifa.
The FBI’s Atlanta office “conducted the bulk of the preliminary investigation” into the group, police say. They add that while other arrests have been made across the U.S., the Georgia case is important because a “training camp and leadership was based at a home” in the town of Silver Creek in Floyd County.
The Base was founded in mid-2018 and “seeks to accelerate the downfall of the United States (US) government, incite a race war, and establish a white ethno-state,” according to an affidavit prepared by local law enforcement.
The FBI successfully placed an undercover federal agent within The Base’s membership in Georgia, and the agent also came to know Yousef Omar Barasneh of Oak Creek, Wis.
Barasneh apparently joined the group under the name Joseph or Josef, according to an affidavit filed in federal court. He is accused of painting swastikas and The Base’s symbol at the Beth Israel Sinai Congregation in Racine, Wis.
The undercover agent interviewed online with Lane last July to gain access to the members-only chat room, the affidavit states. The next month, the agent was invited to meet with Lane and Kaderli. They searched him to make sure he was not carrying any recording devices and then asked him to follow them to a 105-acre lot owned by Lane and his father.
There, the agent was welcomed as a member. The affidavit alleges that Lane gave him “a black Balaklava hood and a Velcro Base logo patch to welcome [him] as a new member of The Base.”
Lane and Kaderli allegedly then told the agent that the next day’s training would “include ‘retreating under fire’ drills and moving-and-shooting drills,” the affidavit states. The stated purpose of the drills was allegedly to prepare The Base’s members for the “Boogaloo” – a name its members use to refer to what they see as the inevitable “collapse of the United States and subsequent race war.”

Did you ever notice that the kind of people attracted to this stuff are not usually very “supreme”? I mean, if you’re an absolute winner — a Nietzchean übermensch, a natural-born specimen of Nordic genetic superiority — you don’t need any kind of “movement” to succeed in life. However, if you did decide to organize a putsch, so that you and your neo-Nazi buddies could “establish a white ethno-state,” wouldn’t your superior Aryan mind enable you to avoid allowing an undercover FBI agent to infiltrate your ranks? What I’m trying to get across here is that, if you’re going to prison because you were too stupid to spot a cop, you’re probably not qualified for world domination anyway.

You might think that some of these would-be führers would have sought my advice, given that I’ve been hate-listed by the SPLC, but despite my alleged status as a racist menace to society, my advice — “Don’t Be Hitler” — continues to be ignored by these amateur dimwits.

By the way, according to the FBI, Luke Lane posted an autobiographical sketch on a neo-fascist website, in which he described how he “started out as a Republican because that is all I knew but I was mostly libertarian in nature,” but “quickly switched to libertarianism later in life” — he’s only 21, remember? — “and then realized that was dysfunctional and wrong as well.” So next he “switched to being an AnCap” (anarcho-capitalist) “because I viewed libertarianism as putting weak men who would not stand for what they should be standing for but realized the massive hole in that belief system.” Keep in mind, this guy’s just four years past his senior year of high school, but he’s already had enough time to change ideologies three times before, of course, ending up as a Nazi.

Which is not where you want to end up. Maybe just stick with being a plain old Republican? They’ll call you a Nazi anyway, but it’s better than, say, going to prison because you’re too dumb to spot a cop.


 

Jonathan ‘Jessica’ Yaniv in Jail?

Posted on Comments

 

When last we checked in with this wax-my-balls Canadian freak, he/“she” had assaulted a reporter outside a courthouse in Surrey, British Columbia. Now it seems the freak has spent time behind bars:

Jessica Yaniv was arrested for the assault of a Canadian journalist on over the weekend. According to Keean Bexte, the journalist who was assaulted by Yaniv on camera outside of the B.C. courts on January 14, 2020, Yaniv spent time behind bars on the charge of assault. She may face up to five years for the assault.
That same day, Yaniv falsely accused TPM‘s own Amy Eileen Hamm of sexual assault while at the courtroom. Hamm is suing Yaniv for defamation.
There was widespread speculation that Yaniv was arrested over the weekend, but The Post Millennial and other outlets were unable to verify the claims at the time. Bexte, being the alleged victim in this particular case, was able to confirm the arrest Wednesday afternoon.
When reached for comment, Bexte said, “Yaniv has been ordered to cease all contact with me, both directly and indirectly. I can’t wait for the day when Yaniv is put away for the long haul. He is dangerous and unpredictable.”
Even if Yaniv is behind bars, the civil litigations brought by Bexte and Hamm against Yaniv for assault and defamation respectively can proceed. According to Bexte, Yaniv would be court-ordered to appear for the civil litigations as planned.
Yaniv was released back into the community after the arrest and will appear in court in February. She will also appear in court in February for two prohibited weapons charges.

Oh, “Jessica” would be very popular in prison, I’m sure.



 

McCain Killed in Shootout

Posted on Comments

 

No, not me — Keenan McCain of Gary, Indiana:

The man killed in Monday’s shootout with Gary police officers was wanted for open cases in Marion County, including strangulation and intimidation with a firearm. This happened after Keenan McCain, 29, was wanted in connection to the murder of his girlfriend at a Merrillville Hampton Inn on Sunday.
“He was the only suspect in this case at this point,” Det. Cmdr. Aaron Ridgway of the Merrillville Police Department.
Merrillville Police said they were called to the hotel on Sunday afternoon and found the body of Betty Jean Claudio, with whom police said he had a romantic relationship lasting about a month. They said the Lake County Coroner’s Office confirmed she died by strangulation.
McCain was charged on August 31, 2019, for strangulation, intimidation with a firearm, pointing a firearm at someone and domestic battery. Court records show he never went to jail for these crimes, and a Marion County judge issued a warrant for his arrest after opening a new case in September.
“He had a protection order from a female we’re not going to be identifying out of Marion County,” Cmdr. Aaron Ridgway said. “He also had an active warrant for intimidation, strangulation and it was intimidation with a firearm.”
The victim from the Merrillville case is not the same victim as the Marion County case, police said.
McCain also has an open 2018 case for drug and illegal firearm charges. That case was combined with the 2019 case, according to court documents. A judge ordered him to community corrections for home detention supervision and GPS monitoring. . . .

More background on his history of violence against women:

The ABC7 I-Team spoke exclusively with a former girlfriend of McCain who shared her story of surviving the violence, raising questions about why he wasn’t locked up.
Until the I-Team called, Brittany Luster hadn’t heard about what her ex-boyfriend did in northwest Indiana, but says Keenan McCain should have been locked up for what he did to her last summer — something that might have prevented what happened on Monday night.
The I-Team uncovered ceaseless charges of gun violence and brutality against McCain and a jarring story of survival from his previous girlfriend.
“He had jumped on me, he had choked me and he put a gun in my face. Threatened to kill me,” Luster said. “Yeah, he was serious. He ended up pulling a gun out on my father.”
In an interview Tuesday afternoon, Brittany Luster said she met Keenan McCain online when both of them were living in Indianapolis last year. . . .

(How many times have I warned against online dating?)

The relationship was troubled from the start. According to a police affidavit obtained by the I-Team, last summer on various occasions McCain “pulled a black handgun and pointed it at her face… began punching her in the right side of her head.” He put his 40 cal “pistol in her mouth and said he would kill her” and was “stompkicking her legs.” McCain hit the “top of her head…in a hammer fist motion” and asked “do you want your brain to bleed?” then “got atop of her and began choking her.”
“Yeah, he choked me many times and made me black out,” Luster said. “He’s never actually shot at me. He’s pulled a gun out on me several times and he put it in my mouth maybe a couple times.”
Luster said she wasn’t surprised to learn that he killed his girlfriend and was in a shootout with police.

What has gone wrong with our criminal justice system, that dangerous monsters like this are being turned loose on the streets?

A Mass Shooting CNN Won’t Notice

Posted on Comments

There was a mass shooting Sunday night in Kansas City in which one woman was killed and 15 other people were injured. Three of the injured victims were listed in critical condition Monday. Mass shootings have become part of propaganda campaign by Democrats and the media, who seek to blame President Trump for these crimes — a “climate of hate” supposedly inspired by the White House. However, not every mass shooting lends itself to this political narrative, and so CNN viewers will not be getting 24/7 coverage of the Kansas City shooting:

Jahron Swift was identified by authorities as the gunman in a mass shooting that left at least 16 people wounded, 1 fatally, at a Kansas City nightclub a couple hours after the Kansas City Chiefs won a spot in the Super Bowl.
The shooter also died at the scene. The shooting occurred outside at 9ine Ultra Lounge bar about 11:30 p.m. on January 19, 2020 in the 4800 block of Noland Road. . . . The bar was hosting a Chiefs’ party.
Kansas City.com reported that the shooter “started firing into a line of people waiting to get inside” the club. The motive remains unclear. Jahron Swift was 29 years old and a resident of Kansas City. . . .
In a news conference, Kansas City Police Chief Richard Smith said the first call came in at 11:27 p.m.
“This club had come up previously. We knew it was an issue at other points in time in the past. Officers had done a check of the parking lot and were less than a minute out when we got our first call,” he said. . . .
“No one fired a weapon other than the security guard and suspect. Police officers fired no shots at the scene,” Smith said. He said the shooting ignited after a “disturbance in the club…in the line waiting to get in. This incident unraveled shortly after that disturbance.” Police don’t know what caused the disturbance. The chief said he was aware of social media reports that people were cutting in line but said they haven’t confirmed that.
The guard was inside the club and “heard commotion. He went outside and that’s when he confronted the suspect,” the police chief said. . . .
Swift had a previous criminal history. According to Missouri state court records, he was accused of unlawful use of a weapon and possession of a controlled substance (marijuana) in 2017.
There are also some civil cases and a paternity action against him. A court ordered him to pay child support.

Further details about the killer:

We’re learning more about the suspect in Sunday night’s shooting at 9ine Ultra Lounge in east Kansas City. It turns out he never should’ve had a gun in the first place.
Jahron Swift just got off probation after a felony conviction. . . .
The 29-year-old was sentenced for unlawful use of a weapon and felony drug possession in 2015. According to court records, Swift and two other men were pulled over in a traffic stop. Officers uncovered thousands of dollars worth of pills, marijuana and cocaine, several guns, and almost $8,000 in cash.
That conviction means Swift couldn’t legally own a gun.

If more than a dozen people had been shot by an “alt-right” Trump supporter, CNN would be airing hourly updates, with politicians and pundits being asked to weigh in on the “climate of hate” that allegedly caused the mass shooting. However, when an angry dope dealer opens fire because people are cutting in front of him in the line to get into the club after the Chiefs won a trip to the Super Bowl? That’s just local news.

There were 149 homicides in Kansas City last year. None of them made the national news, because none of the killers was a known Trump voter.
