• UNREAL: Man Sleeps Through What He Thinks Are Noisy Hotel Guests, Wakes Up to Find His Room Riddled With Bullet Holes (See the Pics)

  The police admit to a lack of evidence to pin the shooting on ANYONE at this point. They likely will not know any more unless they arrest a guy carrying a gun that can be tied to the crime using ballistic forensics, or if someone comes forward who has knowledge of the shooting. It seems to me that when asked if there is evidence to link it to a cartel, the obvious answer is NO. Nobody said it was definitely not a cartel. Given what is known, it is equally possible to be some random 99 percentard shooting into the “all-suites corporate hotel”. The possibilities are too numerous to tie it to any one group or individual without evidence.

  You misunderstand the answer. The question asked was IF THERE WAS ANY EVIDENCE to suggest involvement of Mexican drug cartels. The police did not rule out the possibility of a cartel being involved with their answer. They only stated that there was no EVIDENCE found to make that connection. It is BECAUSE they don’t know who did it, that they cannot link it to a cartel this early in the investigation. Let’s be fair and not stuff words into peoples mouths here.

  The question was very specific. Did they find evidence of….. The answer was NO. If the question had been, “Is there a possibility of drug cartel involvement?”, perhaps the answer would have been different.

• ‘We Have the Right to Defend Ourselves’: Community Rallies Around Utah Man Arrested for Shooting at Burglar

  February 9, 2013 at 12:09am

  When you shoot an intruder in your home or an assailant aggressing elsewhere, it is self defense. If the same guy is running away life a scared little dog (retreating), by all means keep him in your sight picture but DO NOT FIRE. That is not self defense, but shooting a guy because you’re pissed. Get the plate and call 911. I hope the law goes easy on him, but he made a poor choice. Even in the wild west, it was bad form to shoot a guy in the back.

• Retired Gulf War Leader Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf Dies at 78

  December 27, 2012 at 9:11pm

  Halfway down the trail to Hell,
  In a shady meadow green
  Are the Souls of all dead troopers camped,
  Near a good old-time canteen.
  And this eternal resting place
  Is known as Fiddlers’ Green.
  Marching past, straight through to Hell
  The Infantry are seen.
  Accompanied by the Engineers,
  Artillery and Marines,
  For none but the shades of Cavalrymen
  Dismount at Fiddlers’ Green.
  Though some go curving down the trail
  To seek a warmer scene.
  No trooper ever gets to Hell
  Ere he’s emptied his canteen.
  And so rides back to drink again
  With friends at Fiddlers’ Green.
  And so when man and horse go down
  Beneath a saber keen,
  Or in a roaring charge of fierce melee
  You stop a bullet clean,
  And the hostiles come to get your scalp,
  Just empty your canteen,
  And put your pistol to your head
  And go to Fiddlers’ Green.

• SEAL Team 4 Commander Found Dead, Suicide Feared

  December 24, 2012 at 9:24pm

  I’ve seen far too many suicides and suicide attempts overseas. Almost all that I had known about involved problems with a relationship. Do any of you have any idea what it feels like to be 7000 miles from home and unable to do anything when things start to fall apart there? When you are a take charge kind of guy, the loss of control over your own life can be too much to bear. Take it from someone who has sat a while with an M-16 under his chin until a mental image of his children crying after being told daddy was never coming home pulled him from that horrible pit of depression. Let’s just tone down the conspiracy BS a bit and show this warrior the respect he is due. Question with boldness. Do not question with ignorance and paranoia.

• Student Escorted to High School by Police and Suspended for This ‘Disturbing’ Facebook Post — But Is It Really?

  December 20, 2012 at 8:53pm

  Having the police investigate the comments was the right thing to do. They were very vague, could have meant anything, and sounded ominous to at least one parent. When it was found to be a misunderstanding on the part of the alarmed parties, it should have ended right there. Suspension is utterly ridiculous. It seems to me that the school administration is determined to make a big issue out of a non issue. Maybe they feel embarrassed that they raised alarms and are trying to save face? Maybe the administration got themselves so worked up over the comments that they don’t believe the perspective of the police that no wrongdoing was done? At any rate, it boils down to the administration acting stupidly. Can someone say infringement on free speech?
