Police are to shoot teenagers walking out of Wal Mart with TVs. They will have immunity.

A former Boeing worker who warned of production defects — ignored by the company — has been found dead in the US state of South Carolina.

John Barnett had been employed by Boeing for more than three decades, working on the factory floor until he retired in 2017.

Mr Barnett filed a whistleblower claim against Boeing alleging the company retaliated against him for repeatedly reporting defects.

He had recently been giving evidence against the aircraft manufacturer in a lawsuit in the city of Charleston.

Mr Barnett died from what appeared to be a "self-inflicted" injury, according to the Charleston County Coroner's Office.

The grand jury report revealed that the 6-year-old old student exhibited signs of violence prior to the shooting and should not have been enrolled in school.

The child "exhibited many behavioral problems" prior to the Jan. 6, 2023, incident where he shot his Zwerner with a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol.

“At the same time, we discourage baseless accusations linking these tragedies to video gameplay, which detract from efforts to focus on the root issues in question and safeguard against future tragedies,” the group said in a statement. “Many other countries have similar rates of video gameplay to the United States, yet do not see similar rates of gun violence.”
Er, you need the guns too. No other country sells a mini-AR15 for kids.

The latest fad is a poverty social. Every woman must wear calico,
and every man his old clothes. In addition each is fined 25 cents if
he or she does not have a patch on his or her clothing. If these
parties become a regular thing, says an exchange, won't there be
a good chance for newspaper men to shine?
