A father accused of trying to strangle his teenage daughter in a Muslim ‘honor killing’ has been jailed for almost three years.

Ihsan Ali, 44, stood trial for second-degree attempted murder alongside his wife Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali, 40, over the October 18, 2024, attack.

A Thurston County Superior Court jury found them not guilty on July 31, but convicted Ihsan of lesser charges against his daughter Fatima Ali.

It’s obvious that this was a miscarriage of “justice” to this girl.

The report doesn’t say what their immigration status is.  

Regardless of what it is, the husband and wife should be either deported or denaturalized and deported.

It further apparent that they have not be good “citizens” hence the felony convictions.

I like Japan’s treatment of “muslims” due to their conduct and failure to live peacefully in civil society.  

Islam is NOT a “religion”; it’s an ideology that seeks to fundamentally change society.

Hence, as a gun-owning pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian, they should depart from the USA and return to wherever they came from.  They are not … …

“Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

… … “yearning to breathe free” and as such are not welcome to share in the American experiment.

Argh!

A shirtless hiker who went missing in remote California mountains has been found alive after 10 days after he vanished – saying he surviving drinking water from his boot and eating wild berries.  
 
Lukas McClish, 34, didn’t tell anyone where he was going when he set off on a three-hour walk through the Big Basin Redwoods State Park in Boulder Creek on June 11.
 
He planned to visit some rare granite outcroppings in the area.
 
*** end quote ***
 
​An “experienced hiker”? 
 
Maybe a lucky fool who overestimated his skills.  Going on a hike without telling anyone where and no supplies?
 
</sarcasm> … Hell, I won’t go to the local McDonalds without telling someone where I’m going. .. <sarcasm/>
 
Seriously, I really wonder about people’s intelligence level and sanity.When I was in USAF survival school, we were taught to “plan to be lost”.  And we were in a national forest in Idaho.  And, you can really feel “lost” in a forest and disoriented very quickly.  A proper compass, topological map, and proper “survival” kit is essential for a good outcome.
 
Never mind that he was unarmed in cougar country.  
 
And, btw, who pays for his rescue?  It would seem that the Big Basin Redwoods State Park would see “rescue insurance” to everyone to defray the cost of reducing the unprepared.
 
Argh!

GOVERNACIDE: How can a multiple DUI driver be free?

‘Drunk driver’ Jose Menjivar, who killed mom and her teenage son in a wreck, has three previous DUI convictions and was driving despite having his license pulled

  •     Melissa Powell and her teenage son Riordan died after being involved in a collision on December 12 in Broomfield, Colorado 
  •     Jose Menjivar has since been charged with DUI and vehicular homicide
  •     Previous court records have revealed that Menjivar has been convicted of DUI in the past and had his license revoked

A mom and her teenage son were killed in a car wreck and police have arrested the man they say was behind the wheel while drunk – a suspect who has three previous DUI convictions. 

On Thursday, Colorado’s 17th Judicial District Attorney’s Office announced formal charges against Jose Menjivar, 37.

Menjivar is accused of causing a crash in Broomfield on December 12 that claimed the lives of Melissa Powell, 46, and her son Riordan, 16. 

*** end quote ***

Seems like the price would have a BOLO on every DUI convicted driver.

Instead of random checkpoints pursue the repeat offenders.  Give them a special license plate, like the dealer plates that easily are put on and off, that say “stop me for a DUI check”!

Argh!

This is not the first time I’ve ranted about this topic.

The person who loaned him the truck should be prosecuted as well as an “accessory before the fact”. That person had to know him well enough to know he didn’t have license.

ECONOMICS: Big deffered contract takes a big risk?

Baseball fans SLAM Shohei Ohtani’s ‘league-killing deal’ after it was revealed he will defer $680m of his eye-watering $700m contract… as rival supporters blast MLB’s ‘downright laughable’ decision to give green light | Daily Mail Online

  •     Ohtani’s deal will see the bulk of the contract paid out after it ends in 10 years 
  •     Baseball fans were irate at the structure and that it was allowed to happen 

*** end quote ***

The Dodgers must have channeled their inner Bill Belichick.  This will get everyone’s shorts in a knot.  Especially the politicians and bureaucrats in the Pepuls Republik of Kaliforkneeah.  That’s a lot of money they can’t steal.  And it’s a big risk to take on the financial stability of the Dodgers and the future value of the USD.  Wonder what kind of Futures Contract he’s buying to protect it.

While I understand the motivations behind “stretching the rules”, it’s NOT without some significant risks IMHO.

It violates my favorite heuristic (rule of thumb; “common sense”; pov) that one should always “take the money and run”.  

It’s not beyond the imagination to conceive of the politicians and bureaucrats of the Pepuls Republik of Kaliforkneeah creating a special income tax rule for “deferred compensation”.  Watch for it!

AND, inflation AKA dollar depreciation is for SURE to erode that deferred wealth.
