‘I always worry about violent crime!’

BY JAKE FULLER

  • YOU! and your leftist minions don’t give a $hit about anything containing common sense. When you provide sanctuary and benefits to criminals, homeless drug addicts, and cretins what did you think will happen to the crime rate?

  • The one quoted victim Ricky is a career offender with over 45 convictions including human trafficking and several prison sentences. Law of averages caught him, just a little slower then usual. The other I dont know about yet.

    Murder has exceeded last year’s total. But hey the guns aren’t assaulting people like they used to its all the assault vehicles, assault knives, assault cell phones. Better get some more bans started. It is not a gun problem. The gun is a object that requires human interaction to work. Not being able to control your emotions and harming someone is a human problem.

    • As if Bear GAF about people being shot.

      “The United States has the highest rate of civilian gun ownership in the world, with approximately (120.5) firearms per 100 residents.”

      “The US gun homicide rate is 26 times that of other high-income countries…”

      https://everytownresearch.org/graph/the-u-s-gun-homicide-rate-is-26-times-that-of-other-high-income-countries/

      “Conclusion
      The number of guns per capita per country was a strong and independent predictor of firearm-related death in a given country,”

      • Jazz: you offer no solutions. How about adding some of your AI BS
        On how to stop homeless crime here in GNV…I know you don’t invite stinky vagrant bums inside your home to crap that up… two woman were raped yesterday here by homeless cretins…have a stupid remark for that too?

      • Blah, blah, blah. Your Mayor is trying to do a victory lap for gun violence being down in the city. Do you not agree with his baffooning? And according to you the mean CoVid killed so many innocent people. More than gu b scand I dont see you screaming about the country of China.

        • CO-VID killed so many
          people, more then guns in a year but i don’t see screaming about the country of China inflicting a man made bio weapon upon the world.

  • I think most liberals believe crime is only violent if it’s committed against them.
    Case in point – the Charlie Kirk comments, the call for acts against SCOTUS, the lack of media denouncing the riots and looting in the recent past.

    • Right, and then those liberals excusing the murder on the streets of ICE protesters, Biden rallying and then pardoning BLM protesters*, while conservatives (?) like You voted voiced concerns about the Minnesota legislature who was assasinated. He’s so right on this (barf)!

      • That’s wasn’t murder Jazz… it’s called “suicide by cop”.

        Don’t mess with law enforcement when they are doing their jobs.

        You should have gotten involved in that homeless guy tossing his cigarette butt and then getting tazed twice and then gun drawn on him while backup arrived to help handcuff him… a cigarette filter that birds making their nests.. that may have been excessive use of force for not picking up a filter butt fast enough…

        You certainly get cranky anything Donald Trump…do the same BS in front of ice and you may become a hero in your mind too..

        “Liberalism is a mental disorder”

        FAFO

        • Here’s what Bullwinkle thinks is suicide by cop.

          Pretti and a woman are filming agents without attacking them – perfectly legal. One agent confronts and pushes Prettu and the woman, who Pretti then tries to help up. He is tackled by 1/2 dozen goons in masks – Bullwinkle loves masks – who get him on the ground. Then one pulls his gun and shoots him in the back. 10 shots total are pumped into him. The medical examiner ruled it a homicide.

          https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBi_c_unAdI

          Here’s the murder of Goode – also ruled a homicide. The Cop was not hit by her car and she clearly turned the wheel to miss him, not run him over. He shot into the car – a practice forbidden by police.

          https://www.cnn.com/2026/01/09/us/video/ice-agents-cellphone-footage-raises-new-questions-invs

          Both Trump and Noem, being lying scumbags, said these were self defense. Pretty pathetic when people like Bullwinkle and Bear will spread lies because their cult leader does and they have to believe what he says.

          • Jazzman continues to willfully (or ignorantly? You decide) misunderstand the information he posts:

            “[i]t is to be emphasized that the classification of Homicide for the purposes of death certification is a ‘neutral’ term and neither indicates nor implies criminal intent, which remains a determination within the province of legal processes… [The expert] did not use the word as a legal term of art. He explained how he determined the death was a homicide instead of death by natural causes, suicide, or accident. ”

            https://forensicresources.org/2019/homicide-manner-of-death-vs-legal-conclusion/

          • Yeah, the legal system then determines intent except here the feds have hidden the perps after lying about the incident. Is your failure to note that willful or just ignorance. Is the president and his Department accessories?

            By the way, watch the video you idiot!

          • The medical examiner is going to rule a gunshot from another person a homicide. Suicide is ruled as self inflicted. A medical examiner does not make criminal punishment decisions with justifications. You make it seem like a doctor is some elite law enforcement officer. They only look for manners of death period. I will say it again. The Minnesota governor and Minneapolis mayor are at fault again. If they allowed local law enforcement to assist the duo may still be alive to protest another day. If they would have peacefully protested. Good make a decision to keep driving. All she had to do was turn the car off and listen to directions. Pretti, same thing, but no they think touching law enforcement or damaging property (previous event) is peaceful. And again why as a peaceful protesters would you want to bring a gun to a volatile situation which may not have been if local law enforcement was there to assist instead of refusing.

          • Look at the videos you idiot! Cripes.

            PS Why are you asking why he had a gun? He’s an American citizen covered by the 2nd amendment which you otherwise think he is hly writ.

            At no time did he pull the weapon to threaten or use it.

          • Point is jazzman why would a peaceful protester feel it necessary to be armed at a peaceful protest where he was just spreading love of illegal trespassers.

            I am not going to argue the 2nd Ammendment with you since we both agree you have the right as a AMERICAN CITIZEN.

            However if the local officials would have deemed it a unlawful assembly like they should have done and adequately assisted ICE agents there would gave been a lot less drama.

            Don’t forget too that carrying a firearm as a American citizen you do have to follow the law. Pretti’s actions of vandalism to a law enforcement vehicle while armed may have gotten a upgraded criminal charge. As a CCW holder Pretti should have used better sense. Again stupid actions can cause stupid prizes.

            I have watched the videos at length and again if Good and Pretti would have made better choices they still would be among the living and not have to worry about being compared to Fentanyl George.

          • You ignore the fact that our fascist administration, in it’s desire to murder citizens without accountability – if that’s not fascism, there is no such thing – has not brought the officers involved to review, let alone trial, where your stupid questions about damaging a vehicle (WTF?) could be investigated and judgement be made on the appropriateness of killing citizens for “vandalism to a law enforcement vehicle” or in Goode’s case for not obeying the correct order of the many being made to her as she sought to vacate the insanity of these poorly trained but unnamed and masked federal goons.

            Your defense of these outrageous and unAmerican acts by your fascist overlord is beyond shame.

          • This is not picking out drapes, this is murder – 10 shots in the back of a citizen – without any investigation. You buy that and you’ll buy any tyranny by your leader.

      • I’ve still got that oceanfront property in Arizona too. It’s telling that Ward hasn’t made you ‘barf’ yet.
        How many firearms do you own?

  • Oh you guys think it’s funny, but wait till someone throws a rock though your window! So we had to lock down city hall with metal detectors and extra police. We had to unfreeze two position at GPD!

    • That whole saga seemed false flaggy to me. In fact, it was tacky. Cui bono?

      In the end they got those security upgrades they so desperately wanted.

  • One person died from a knife 🔪on Mother’s Day, another died of a gun shot wound…those curtains are real!

    Mr Mayor: why are you complicit about panhandlers in the medians at 39th and Waldo
    Road? That’s a safety hazzard and not a good look for the city…

    it’s the first thing visitors see 👀 after they arrive at the airport 🛬…

    panhandlers with
    Cardboard signs, umbrellas and chairs , surrounded by their litter, & tossing their cigarettes butts…they even bring their dogs 🐕 sometimes…

    Come on mayor, clean up the city!

    we want to see flowers 🌺 in the medians, not vagrant felon bums released from some other counties’ jails who are invited here to receive taxpayer benefits at Grace Marketplace …

    we can’t afford to give give them free housing either, so don’t buy any more motels to house them in…you’re making the problem worse!

    Do something about the bum crime emergency we are having here…you don’t seem to be worried about that!

  • Glad I moved out of that liberal cesspool. The voters + what passes as a city commission will be the downfall of G’ville.

  • The perspective below doesn’t have anything to do with the availability of guns in our State and country?
    Responsible gun ownership is one thing, this absolutist extreme position is going to get many innocent people killed, regardless of who Mayor or Governor.
    “Marshall Rawson has earned our endorsement because he is truly a patriot on the Second Amendment,” said Luis Valdes, Southeast Regional Director for Gun Owners of America. “Marshall wants to repeal all the egregious gun control that has been passed in Florida’s state legislature by their do-nothing R.I.N.O. supermajority. He wants to get rid of red flag laws, under-21 purchase bans, waiting periods, and gun-free zones. Marshall actually understands that the Second Amendment is not just about sporting, it’s not just about collecting, it’s about self-defense from tyranny and from criminals. He wants us to be able to exercise our rights as free Americans.”

  • Mayor Harvey Ward and his incompetent minions (such as the hapless and uneducated Bryan Eastman) care so much about violent crime, that they purposefully attract violent criminals to our town with their GRACE Marketplace NGO scam.

  • Ward also said there’s over 900 homeless children in LOCAL schools, but the official number in all of N. Central Fla is about 600 including adults (quote from the counters “The official 2026 Point-in-Time (PIT) Count results for Alachua, Bradford, Dixie, Gilchrist, Levy, and Putnam Counties surveyed 613 individuals experiencing homelessness across North Central Florida, including 414 individuals residing in sheltered settings and 199 individuals identified through unsheltered surveys.”).
    Why is he lying? Why do local advocates want to load up the school budgets with homeless magnet NGO funding? Is it because the state is going to cut property tax revenues soon? So now locals want to dump programs into the schools and raise those taxes?
    What if those kids and parents would have better opportunities elsewhere?
