Cancel Mob Comes for QB Mac Jones

Posted on | April 18, 2021 | Comments Off on Cancel Mob Comes for QB Mac Jones

When he was 13 years old in 2012, Mac Jones wore a “Nobama” costume for Halloween. This was just days before the 2012 election, and Jones was a ninth-grader at the prestigious Bolles School in Jacksonville, Florida. In other words, this was a swing state in an election year, where everybody in Florida was being saturated with political ads and — surprise, surprise — the Jones family were among the 49% of Floridians who voted Republican that year. So it wasn’t remotely “controversial” for a teenager in Florida to make fun of Obama. But now it’s 2021 . . .

The “cancel culture” mob went rooting around on Mac Jones’s sister’s social media accounts to find this 2012 photo in an apparent effort to depict Jones — who led Alabama to the national championship — as some sort of racist, with the NFL Draft on the immediate horizon.

Let me explain what’s really behind this: The San Francisco 49ers are looking for a franchise quarterback. They were 12th in the draft order, but traded away their first-round pick, plus their first-round picks for 2022 and 2023 to the Miami Dolphins for the No. 3 overall pick. Everybody knows this was aimed at getting the kind of quarterback who can take the Niners to the Super Bowl, and there was widespread speculation that Mac Jones is their man. The other possible choice is Justin Fields of Ohio State. These are two very different quarterbacks — Mac Jones is a traditional Tom Brady-type drop-back passer with a powerful arm, while Fields is more of the run-and-gun “wildcat” QB. During the last full season (2019) for Ohio State, Fields rushed for 484 yards, while Jones in 2020 rushed for only 14 yards. But Jones is by far the better passer, with 4,500 yards and a 77.4 completion percentage his senior year. Not to mention, of course, that in their head-to-head matchup in the National Championship game, Alabama absolutely humiliated Ohio State 52-24, with Jones throwing for five TDs and 464 yards. The choice between Fields and Jones is a choice between two very different players, and San Francisco has bet the future of their franchise on this choice.

Oh, wait — left-wing San Francisco, a franchise that has been under fire by radicals ever since they benched Colin Kaepernick. Isn’t it obvious that the 49ers are under tremendous pressure to choose Fields — the black guy — over the white guy, Jones? Frankly, it makes no difference to me, as an Alabama fan, because I’m sure Jones will be great wherever he goes in the draft, but this attempt to get Jones “cancelled” as a racist shows how identity politics ruins everything. NFL teams can’t even make personnel choices without being subjected to scrutiny over absurd “social justice” standards that have nothing to do with football.

Anyway, if the 49ers don’t draft Mac Jones, they’ll be making a mistake, but it’s probably “white supremacy” to say so.

FBI Knew About Indianapolis Gunman

Posted on | April 17, 2021 | Comments Off on FBI Knew About Indianapolis Gunman

Armed, dangerous and crazy:

The former employee who shot and killed eight people at a FedEx facility in Indianapolis was interviewed by FBI agents last year, after his mother called police to say that her son might commit “suicide by cop,” the bureau said Friday.
Coroners released the names of the victims late Friday, a little less than 24 hours after the latest mass shooting to rock the U.S. Four of them were members of Indianapolis’ Sikh community. The attack was another blow to the Asian American community a month after six people of Asian descent were killed in a mass shooting in the Atlanta area and amid ongoing attacks against Asian Americans during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Marion County Coroner’s office identified the dead as Matthew R. Alexander, 32; Samaria Blackwell, 19; Amarjeet Johal, 66; Jaswinder Kaur, 64; Jaswinder Singh, 68; Amarjit Sekhon, 48; Karli Smith, 19; and John Weisert, 74.
The shooter was identified as Brandon Scott Hole, 19, of Indianapolis, Deputy Police Chief Craig McCartt told a news conference. Investigators searched a home in Indianapolis associated with Hole and seized evidence, including desktop computers and other electronic media, McCartt said.
Hole began firing randomly at people in the parking lot of the FedEx facility late Thursday, killing four, before entering the building, fatally shooting four more people and then turning the gun on himself, McCartt said. He said he did not know if Hole owned the gun legally.
“There was no confrontation with anyone that was there,” he said. “There was no disturbance, there was no argument. He just appeared to randomly start shooting.” . . .
Paul Keenan, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Indianapolis field office, said Friday that agents questioned Hole last year after his mother called police to say that her son might commit “suicide by cop.” He said the FBI was called after items were found in Hole’s bedroom but he did not elaborate on what they were. He said agents found no evidence of a crime and that they did not identify Hole as espousing a racially motivated ideology. A police report obtained by The Associated Press shows that officers seized a pump-action shotgun from Hole’s home after responding to the mother’s call. Keenan said the gun was never returned.
McCartt said Hole was a former employee of FedEx and last worked for the company in 2020. The deputy police chief said he did not know why Hole left the job or if he had ties to the workers in the facility. He said police have not yet uncovered a motive for the shooting.

Motive? How about, he’s crazy?

Crazy People Are Dangerous.

Jones v. Pushaw Update

Posted on | April 17, 2021 | Comments Off on Jones v. Pushaw Update

After “Everybody Blog About Rebekah Jones Day,” it turns out that Friday’s hearing was a bit of a “meh.” John Hoge reports that the case was continued to April 30 because Christina Pushaw had not been properly served in the case. So we will have to wait another two weeks to learn whether Jones succeeds in her effort at shutuppery. But Jones was mystified by Hoge’s appearance at Friday’s hearing:

At the conclusion of the hearing, I left the courthouse immediately. I wanted to avoid any interaction with Jones, and I knew she would have to stay in the courtroom for a while in order to receive a copy of the case paperwork. I had turned off my phone in the courtroom, so I stopped on the sidewalk outside the courthouse to turn it on and make a couple of calls. As Jones left the building, turned to me and asked, “Do I know you?”
I replied, “No.”
She said, “You left at the end of my case. Were you there for me?”
I replied, “Yes.”
She said, “Thank you,” and walked away.

He’s like a comic-book hero: The Gray Ghost. We will discuss this on tonight’s episode (7 p.m. ET) of The Other Podcast.
