Eunuchs

The tragic fall of masculinity has whispered to me all my life, dissonant with something I know to be true.  Yet it was glaringly obvious the other day when a coworker asked my friend Allen and me to assemble a set of IKEA shelves for her office.

The directions were as simple as I’ve ever seen in a package.

And I blew a gasket when I looked at them.

Stabbing Rampage In Minnesota Mall Leaves 8 Injured And Attacker Dead

As usual, the liberal mainstream media barely mentions the fact the Muslim terrorist was killed by a citizen lawfully in possession of a gun. That doesn’t fit their narrative.

Approximately 1 hour after an IED explosion rocked New York City, a knife-wielding man, dressed in a private security uniform, went on a stabbing rampage at the Crossroads Center Mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota.  8 people were injured in the stabbings and all but 1 have been treated for their injuries and subsequently released from a local hospital.

The attacker’s name has not yet been released by St. Cloud police though the St. Cloud Times reported that the attacker asked at least one victim whether they were Muslim and referenced Allah during the assault.  That said, Police Chief William Blair Anderson declined to call the attacks an act of terrorism.

 

The attacker was killed by an off-duty police officer from another jurisdiction though his identity has not been revealed.  According to the St. Cloud Times, local police had three previous encounters with the suspect, most for minor traffic violations.

St. Cloud Police Chief William Blair Anderson said they “have no reason to believe” anyone else was involved in the attacks.

“We
will be diligent and get to the bottom of this,  Starting tomorrow, things won’t be the same here.”

The mall remained on lock down for a long period following the incident, but authorities subsequently released those remaining inside early this morning.


Zero Tolerance: 2 Teens Face Expulsion, Jail for Fishing Knives, Advil in Their Cars

Charges could prevent one teen from joining the Marines, and the other teen from attending college

Serrato

Two Escondido, California, high school students—ages 16 and 18—could see their whole lives derailed because they committed the crime of keeping fishing supplies in cars they parked on school property.

The elder teen, Brandon Cappelletti, had three knives in his car: the remnants of a family fishing trip. The knives were used to cut lines and filet fish. The younger teen, Sam Serrato, had a pocketknife in his glove compartment. His father had left it there.

Both teens are facing expulsion. Cappelletti, a legal adult, could serve jail time if convicted of weapons charges, according to The San Diego Union-Tribune.

You might be wondering how administrators at San Pasqual High School even found out about the innocuous items. You might be wondering why the Escondido police became involved. You might also be wondering if the world has gone mad. I have answers to these questions, but you won’t like them.

The high school pays a company to search its campus for contraband using drug-sniffing dogs. On January 27, the dogs indicated Cappelletti’s vehicle—not because of the knives, but because he kept Advil in the car. It’s not clear how Serrato was caught (one news story claims he also had Advil, but his father disputed this). But the knives were discovered, the police were called, and both boys are in big trouble. According to the police report:
