Man arrested after being hurt in Georgetown County gunfire exchange
GEORGETOWN COUNTY, SC (WMBF) – The Georgetown County Sheriffâs Office says an arrest has been made in connection to a Friday gunfight.
Savion Grimmage was arrested after he was treated at a hospital for gunshot wounds.
Grimmage was shot just after 12:30 a.m. on Exodus Drive in the Plantersville community, the sheriffâs office said.
Investigators said they found evidence of shots fired into a house and a car, and the homeowner returned fire with a shotgun, hitting Grimmage.
Grimmage was taken to the Georgetown County Detention Center after his arrest.
His charges are pending.
It isn’t but it should be an April Fool’s Day joke.
"NO WEAPONS ALLOWED"
Reporter *bewildered* that a shooting could possibly happen when the sign clearly states no guns.

The Secretary of Defense – and ONLY him, not some underling – by law is in the direct chain of command of the U.S. military from POTUS to the Combatant Commanders. This was blatant dereliction of duty what with a senile delusional dotard sitting in the oval office.
BLUF
Austin’s Department of Defense is a barking shambles. It is incompetent in action and not trustworthy. It not only lies to the people and to Congress, but to the White House and itself…okay, maybe that isn’t all that unusual. As the old saying goes, a fish rots from the head down. If Biden lets this slide by, he’s a much bigger imbecile than even I had considered possible.
SecDef Austin Did Not Tell Biden’s National Security Adviser He Was in the ICU
The Department of Defense didn’t notify the White House that Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was in the Walter Reed National Medical Center intensive care unit until Thursday. That’s it.
I’ve posted twice on the growing mystery of why the Defense Department failed to notify Congress that Secretary Austin was in the hospital. In the first episode, it was revealed in a Pentagon statement on Friday that Austin had been in the hospital since New Year’s Day due to “complications” from an “elective medical procedure.” This came as a shock to the Pentagon Press Corps and Congress.
BACKGROUND:Â Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin Has Been Hospitalized for a Week and Just Told Congress Today
The second act materialized earlier on Saturday with the report that Austin hadn’t just been in the hospital; he’d been in the intensive care unit from Monday to Friday evening. His deputy, Kathleen Hicks, was on vacation in Puerto Rico at the time. While he was incapacitated and she was sunning herself, the US ordered a drone strike on the leader of an Iranian militia; the US Navy was trying to make the Red Sea safe for commercial traffic without upsetting the Iranians or Houthis, a war raged between Israel and Hamas, and North Korea lobbed a couple of hundred artillery rounds into South Korean waters.
I ended that update with this note.
While we are focused on Congressional notification, no one has yet asked if the White House was told.
Now we have the answer to that question.
The Pentagon did not inform senior officials in the White Houseâs National Security Council of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austinâs hospitalization until Thursday â three full days after he arrived at Walter Reed Medical Center, two U.S. officials said.
The news came as a shock to top staff, including national security adviser Jake Sullivan, as they were unaware the DOD chief was dealing with complications following an elective medical procedure, the officials said. NSC staffers were surprised it took the Pentagon so long to let them know of Austinâs condition. The Pentagon didnât make the information public until Friday evening, notifying Congress about 15 minutes before releasing a public statement.
For three days, Biden’s national security adviser Jake Sullivan, the National Security Council, and, it seems, a lot of senior Pentagon officials did not know where Austin was, nor did they miss him.

In what is probably a monument of understatement, one unidentified US official said, âThis should not have happened this way.â
Ya think?
There is a Paul Harvey “Rest of the Story” angle that remains to be teased out. What possible elective surgery could Austin have had that he’d literally go AWOL for a week and put the Nation’s security at risk rather than discuss?
Still, there are apologists at work. Democrat apparatchik Brad Carson doesn’t see anything wrong.
There is no standard protocol for when to announce a defense secretaryâs hospitalization or temporary inability to do the job, said Brad Carson, formerly under secretary and chief management officer of the Army, though he added it could depend on the severity of Austinâs condition. If Austin were incapacitated, Congress would surely want to know. But if he were still capable of making decisions, even under a doctorâs supervision, âI donât think Congress has to be notified in such cases.â
This is bullsh**. It makes no sense to say Congress doesn’t need to know if the Secretary of Defense is in the ICU because that affects national security. It certainly makes no sense to imply the national security adviser doesn’t need to be told.
It’s childish and unprofessional to tell the leaders of both chambers of Congress to FOAD by not informing them you are incapacitated. It is dangerously disloyal not to let the Jake Sullivan, idiot that he is, know. It is a sure bet that if Sullivan didn’t know that Biden, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines were also out of the loop.

Bill to Ban Gun CAD Files Nears Vote In The Senate
A bill to ban computer-aided design (CAD) gun file sharing could be voted on in the United States Senate any day.
The bill reads: âIt shall be unlawful for any person to intentionally distribute, over the internet or by means of the World Wide Web, digital instructions in the form of Computer Aided Design files or other code that can automatically program a 3-dimensional printer or similar device to produce a firearm or complete a firearm from an unfinished frame or receiver.â
Senate Bill 1819 is known as the 3D Printed Gun Safety Act and was introduced by Senator Edward Markey (D-MA) and co-sponsored by 28 other Democrats, including Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Chris Murphy (D-CT), and the late Dianne Feinstein (D-CA). It also has support from most of the other Democrats in the Senate.
âLet me be clear: We arenât just talking about water pistols here,â said Co-sponsor Senate Kristin Gillibrand (D-NY). âWeâre talking about real, fully operational semi-automatic firearms like AR-15 rifles and Beretta M9 handguns. Because many of the 3D printed guns are made of plastic, they can bypass metal detectors commonly used atâŚsecure public areas. People are going into these public spaces and using these ghost guns to commit crimes, and law enforcement is finding it more and more difficult to stop them.â
The bill will prevent the sharing of gun CAD, which is hosted on sites such as Defense Distributedâs Def CAD website. The CAD files let anyone with a 3D printer print a firearm receiver. The affordability of 3D Printers that can be purchased for as little as a few hundred dollars has led to an explosion of DIY gun builders that design and print firearms. The 3D print revolution has made gun laws obsolete.
Due to the lack of action in Congress, President Joe Biden ordered the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) to issue a rule banning 80% kits and changed the classification of unfinished frames to be considered firearms. The ATF rule change did not address the 3D printing of guns.
Some states have proposed radical laws to try to cut down on the printing of firearms. New York has proposed a law that would require background checks to buy a 3D printer. Anyone the government prohibits from owning firearms would also be prevented from acquiring a 3D printer.
The proposed federal law raises constitutional questions beyond just the Second Amendment. Many believe that computer code is protected speech, and this law would run afoul of the First Amendment. Many books and resources exist that teach people how to make drugs and bombs, like the Anarchist Cookbook. Some in the gun community reason if that is protected by freedom of speech, then computer code that allows someone to make a gun must also be covered by the First Amendment.
A companion bill in the House of Representatives is currently in the House Judiciary. The House bill is expected to fail due to a lack of support from Republicans. It is doubtful that the Senate bill will have enough votes for a supermajority, but the Democrats have been able to pressure the Republicans into passing anti-gun bills such as the Bi-Partisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA).

Biden/Buttigieg DEI Policies Endanger the Country. They Donât Care.
The FAA is seeking people suffering from âsevere intellectual and psychiatric disabilitiesâ to be air traffic controllers.
The country currently is in the throes of an epidemic of mass insanity and irrationality. The manifestations of the disorder are too numerous to cite, but the explosion of the DEI plague being pushed by the government, many businesses, and the intellectual pigmies in most of the media, must be included in any list of the most egregious. As currently advocated and practiced by our leftist âelites,â1 it is incompatible with rationality, common sense, and morality, among other things, and, as the Wall Street Journal, not to mention the Supreme Court, have pointed out, the U.S. Constitution.
There is a brand of this particular wokeness that is relatively unknown to the general public, but that is particularly irrational and dangerous. It is the Federal Aviation Administrationâs relatively young DEI mandates. These Biden/Buttigieg DEI commands now apply to the employment of FAA air traffic controllers in an insidious way, a way that threatens the safety of our skies and of anyone who flies.
WHAT DO AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLERS DO?
To understand how insidious and dangerous the FAA’s DEI policies are, it is necessary to examine briefly just what air traffic controllers do and the nature of the job. The description that follows includes some detail about their tasks. Bear with me because it shows that being an ATC is not a job for dummies, or even for intellectual giants who cannot make crucial decisions in a short amount of time while under great stress.
First, just to be considered for possible employment, an ATC candidate must first pass a battery of seven tests covering numerical calculations, progressively difficult memory tests, problems involving rapidly changing image relationships, visual computer problems simulating collision avoidance, reading comprehension, logical reasoning, and a personality test. A description of the tests and sample problems are here. Take a stab at some of the sample problems to see how difficult they are and the built-in time limitations and pressures.
By the time they finish their training, ATCs must be experts in a number of areas that affect safety. These include weather, types of aircraft and their characteristics, navigation and the use of multiple types of navigational aids, effective communications with pilots, and radio and radar operations. To ensure pilot and passenger safety, ATCs must be skilled in, among other things, math, including the ability to make quick calculations in a dynamic environment, problem-solving, effective communication, and split-second decision making.
Kamala Harris & John Kerry Jet to Dubai to Lecture about âClimate Crisisâ
Vice President Kamala Harris and âClimate Czarâ John Kerry are jetting off to Dubai to give lectures on fighting âglobal warming.â
The heroic eco-warriors will be joining Democrat President Joe Bidenâs Secretary of State Antony Blinken to participate in the United Nations (UN) COP 28 summit.
The conference is a two-week-long event designed to promote climate alarmism fears among the public in an effort to promote the globalist green agenda.
Over 70,000 attendees are expected to be flown into Dubai on carbon-spewing jets to attend the event.
âTo put it simply, the COP is where the world comes together to agree on ways to address the climate crisis, such as limiting global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, helping vulnerable communities adapt to the effects of climate change, and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050,â a description of the conference states.
âCOP 28 refers to the United Nations Climate Change Conference taking place in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from 30 November until 12 December 2023.â
Kerry, Blinken, Harris, and various others make up the U.S. delegation to the conference, according to the State Department.
The department noted that Harris will attend December 1-2.
âOnce again, the Biden administration exposes the hypocrisy of their own radical green fantasy,â GOP Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa told Fox News.
âJoe Bidenâs Climate Czar is jetting off again emitting the greenhouse gases he warns against, wasting taxpayer dollars, and undermining U.S. strength on the world stage.
âWhile the Biden administrationâs weakness has caused chaos across the globe, President Biden doubles down on combating climate change instead of terrorism.â
The Biden administration has been heavily promoting the green agendaâs climate alarmist ideology.
GOP Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) and some other Republican lawmakers want to pass a measure to prohibit federal funds from being spent on Kerryâs agenda.
Kerry serves as Bidenâs unelected and unregulated âSpecial Presidential Envoy for Climate.â
The role didnât exist before Biden took office and appears to have been invented specifically for his old friend Kerry.
âBidenâs climate czar John Kerry jetted off to Dubai this week to sell out U.S. economic security to the climate cult,â Royâs press office tweeted.
âRep. Roy has a bill that would DEFUND John Kerryâs office (H. R. 4751).â
U.N. Climate Change Executive Secretary Simon Stiell dramatically declared during a speech:
âIf we do not signal the terminal decline of the fossil fuel era as we know it, we welcome our own terminal decline.â
Police Say ‘Terrorist’ Drove Car Into What She Thought Was Jewish School, but Made Ironic Mistake
There’s been a disturbing rise in antisemitism since the start of the Israeli-Hamas war.
We’ve seen the evidence of it from the radical rallies chanting “From the river to the sea” to the ripping down of signs for kidnapped Jewish victims of Hamas. We’ve covered multiple examples here at RedState just over the past couple of days. There were the anti-Israel marchers who stormed the front of a Jewish store, and police had to get in between them and the signs of the kidnapped Israelis they wanted to rip down that were on a pole in front of the store. There was also the Jewish guy who went undercover at one of the anti-Israel rallies in New York City and discovered a lot of the hate against Jews when he interviewed attendees.
But a woman in Indianapolis allegedly managed to put a new spin on an old hate.
The Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) says that Ruba Almaghtheh confessed to purposely backing her car into the Israelite School of Universal and Practical Knowledge while there were people inside the building. The IMPD termed her a “terrorist.” There were no reports of any injuries.
Police said she told them that she was offended by the Hebrew Israelite symbol on the building and planned to attack it after watching coverage of the Israel-Hamas war. She thought it was an “Israel school.”
IMPD said she referred to âher people back in Palestineâ and told officers, âYes. I did it on purpose.â
However, the Anti-Defamation League defines the Israelite School of Universal and Practical Knowledge as an âextreme and antisemiticâ sect of the Black Hebrew Israelites.Â
Whoops, I guess she’s not exactly the sharpest “terrorist.” Â That’s some delicious irony right there.
Not only that, but Almaghtheh also allegedly admitted to committing a “hate crime” on her one phone call to her family. Again, not exactly a smart move. But then, when you’re motivated by hate to attack other people, you’re already working with a deficit on many levels.
A local Jewish group noted the irony but also the continuing danger that people face when there are attitudes like this out there.
Jewish Federation of Greater Indianapolis officials wrote in a press release. âAlthough a Jewish facility was not targeted, solely due to ironic misidentification, this is yet another reminder to maintain security protocols, remain vigilant of suspicious activity and to (report promptly) to the appropriate authorities.â
Almaghtheh is facing a preliminary charge of criminal recklessness.
I’m willing to bet there will likely be other charges coming as they evaluate the facts further in the case.

“Dear FBI, not everything you fail to understand is a threat. Unless reality is a threat to you now.”Â
A lot of assuming going on…
Over the past half century, live action role play (LARP) has grown into a worldwide cultural phenomenon. It involves preplanned theater wherein participants portray characters in an imaginary environment and interact with one another in real time.
On the other hand, violent extremism supports or commits real, ideologically motivated violence to further political, social, or religious goals.1
This article will outline definitive ways to distinguish between LARP and criminal or malicious activity, which may be helpful to both law enforcement and prosecutors if suspects of targeted violence claim they were playacting.
