Gun Control Activist Attempts to Assassinate Candidate Using a Gun

Quintez Brown (image), a resident of Louisville, KY and candidate for a city office attempted to assassinate a man, Craig Greenberg, who was running to become mayor of Louisville. 

The assassination attempt was made with a handgun.

Quintez has previously advocated various gun control measures. He also is a BLM devotee and is against incarceration.

Quintez has not previously been charged with anything more than traffic violations and is currently a student at the University of Louisville.  

His attorney says that Quintez suffered a mental breakdown. His family says that in 2021 he went missing for two weeks in an apparent mental breakdown but is not in treatment.

Bail has been posted (2nd image is his bail photo) and he is out of jail and in home detention.

I'm presuming mental illness, so no hypocrisy.

Maskless Hypocrisy and/or Chutzpah

 

 Stacey Abrams, who ran for Governor of Georgia in 2018 and expects to do so again in 2022, attended a school event 4 February.  She agreed to appear if all the kids were masked but she herself was unmasked when speaking at the event per a staffer's statement to media.

The school policy is 'everybody masked' except when eating. I'm not sure if there are any other exceptions.

The interesting thing here is that a school official posted several images with Stacy on twitter and Stacy (or her staff) subsequently re-tweeted the images. Then, after criticism, Stacy deleted the images as did the school official (the school official, who is in the 2nd image, took down her entire account).

Responding to criticism, Abrams said, in effect, that nobody has standing to criticize her (although deleting the images).  What she didn't do is: apologize, claim she didn't breath while mask less, or say it was only for a few minutes. Although not necessarily connected, Abrams is looking for a new social media staff expert as of 6 February.

Some time ago Stacy criticized the Governor of Georgia for opposing mask mandates.

Mask Hypocrisy at SoFi Stadium (LA, California)

 

The NFL championship game was played in LA last weekend.  The stadium has a rule requiring masks at all times except when actively eating and drinking.

 

Irwin sent me the link for this and it contains both image 1 with Magic Johnson and California Governor Newsom and image 2 with Magic Johnson and Mayor of LA, Garcetti (on Magic's left) and Mayor of SF, Breed. 

 

They appear to be in the Stadium's luxury sky box area.

There are numerous other pictures of people not masked at this event.

What I didn't see in the article was mention of the fact that Magic Johnson is, I'm pretty sure, immune compromised as he had HIV 20 years ago.  I hope nothing happens to him but Magic should be more careful than most people (it was Magic who posted both pictures on twitter) and his friends should be more careful around Magic.

Newsom gave a press opportunity where he said he only took off the mask briefly for the photo; however video of the event (which is embedded in the article) shows this is false. 

Garcetti claims he held his breath during the photos. 

UPDATE:

At Superbowl, a cut of celebrities not wearing masks.
