You in a heap o’ trouble, boy! At some point it has to be asked: how stupid can people be?

Ervin Joaquin Gutierrez, 22. Mugshot is a public record.

Bugs Bunny more than once said that he knew he should of made a right turn at ‘Albiquoikie,’ and it looks as though Ervin Joaquin Gutierrez should have done the same thing. Mr Gutierrez now has a rather serious problem, and he has this problem because he has the IQ of an enchilada.

Man shoots, kills cousin during heated argument over whose enchiladas were spicier: police

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KABB) — A New Mexico man was arrested after allegedly shooting and killing his cousin during an argument over whose plate of green chile enchiladas was hotter, according to authorities.

Ervin Joaquin Gutierrez, 22, was charged with an open count of murder in the Aug. 27 killing of 25-year-old Nathaniel Cavazos. . . . . Continue reading

Education bureaucrats gotta education bureaucrat!

The important paragraph was the seventeenth one down.

What my sadly late best friend used to call the Lexington Herald-Liberal gave readers this September 11th morning was a glowing story on Fayette County Public Schools interim Superintendent Bill Bradford, complete with a great photo of the man, as seen in the newspaper’s tweet about the story shown to the right, handsome, broad-shouldered, looking like he came to the schools from the Police Department. The article told us all the good that he would do, and very little that he had actually done. I suppose that’s not much of a surprise.

Here’s that seventeenth paragraph: Continue reading

Hold them accountable! No one is above the law, our good friends on the left said. That should include those who break our immigration laws, and those who enable them.

We reported on Tuesday how many law enforcement agencies in Kentucky were cooperating with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and now we’re seeing some of the same in the Keystone State. The activists are, of course, thoroughly incensed:

“We don’t need our local police enforcing federal law. It is not their job and has proven time and again to harm public safety,” said Jasmine Rivera, executive director of the Pennsylvania Immigration Coalition. “ICE and billionaires profiting off federal contracts are making billions of dollars from kidnapping our people. They are terrorizing families and attacking our neighbors who are literally building our communities. We don’t need $240 billion of our tax dollars to go to ICE and [U.S. Customs and Border Protection]; we need that money to make education, healthcare, and housing affordable.”

It wasn’t that long ago that our good friends on the left were telling us that “no one is above the law,” during their efforts to put then-former President Donald Trump in jail. Now, returned to office, Mr Trump agrees with that statement, and is enforcing our immigration laws, and shazamm! the left are trying to say that illegal immigrants should be above the law!

Kentucky is not a sanctuary state! But if candy Andy Beshear had his way, we probably would be.

While we continually see the so-called “sanctuary” cities and counties trying to frustrate federal enforcement of our immigration laws, at least parts of Kentucky are doing their jobs! And while the Lexington Herald-Leader’s editorial orientation is toward the left of the political spectrum, reporter Beth Musgrave’s article is politically neutral.

That thing that never happens has happened again That internet thingy Al Gore invented, the thing that was supposed to make us all smarter? It sure looks like it has made people more stupid!

A homosexual activist named Randon Sprinkle? I just had to check, but as far as I could find, it is his real name.

Ex Democratic staffer sentenced to 10 years for distribution of child sexual abuse material

Gwyndolyn Miles, Richmond Times-Dispatch | Thursday, September 3, 2026

RICHMOND — The former democratic political strategist charged with child sex crimes has been sentenced to 10 years in prison, according to the Department of Justice.

Randon Alexander Sprinkle, 31, of Richmond, was convicted on charges of distribution of child sexual abuse material. The DOJ reported that Sprinkle pled guilty on April 23. Continue reading

You in a heap o’ trouble, boy!

So, a man who had managed to keep a clean record himself was hanging around previously convicted felons, and has now been sentenced to five years of three-hots-and-a-cot. Normally I would include the criminals mugshot, something the Lexington Herald-Leader will not do, but the internet search for this fine gentleman’s mugshot turned up images of more than one person, and I cannot be certain which one is this new guest of the federal government.

You in a heap o’ trouble, boy!

After all of the scandals involving Catholic priests, I’m always not-so-secretly glad when these sexual abuse scandals involve teachers or Protestants. Though the Lexington Herald-Leader simply tells us that the alleged offender was a youth minister, he was with the Green River Pentecostal Church in Lincoln County.

Kentucky youth pastor who confessed to sex crimes now faces federal charge

By Taylor Six | August 30, 2026 | 12:22 PM EDT

A Lincoln County youth pastor was federally charged last week with online enticement of a minor, according to court documents released Friday.

Jason Coulter, 48, of Lincoln County, faces one count of online enticement of a minor after he sexually abused a member of his church’s youth group, according to an affidavit. He was already facing charges in state court.

Dear Lexington gang-bangers: imitating Killadelphia isn’t a good idea.

Did I jinx the city of Lexington? The Lexington Herald-Leader reported Saturday afternoon that:

(This) was the third weekend in a row for fatal shootings in Lexington, after six months when no homicides were reported.

I noted, on August 14th:

Lexington, Kentucky, current population 329,791, has seen four murders so far in 2026. Philly has 4.77 times Lexington’s population, but 27 times as many murders.

I’d like to think that the gang-bangers in Lexington didn’t take what I wrote as a personal challenge! Continue reading

Thank the Lord that I am not an attorney!

Brandon Dockery, mugshot by Fayette County Detention Center, and is a public record.

As I was being graduated from the University of Kentucky in 1977, I was seriously considering going to law school. I had totally destroyed the LSAT, and thought it would be a good fit for my obviously brilliant mind and quick thinking. But, alas!, law school was simply not something I could ever afford, and, as my career progressed, it has become more and more obvious that a career as an attorney would not have been a good fit for me. Nothing has made that more clear to me than the case of Brandon Dockery. As this site reported, in August of 2021, on the arrest of Brandon Dockery for the murder of Raymar Webb, I simply could not have put myself through what defense attorneys Cherish Derrickson and Caitlin Dunnington did to try to defend Mr Dockery.
