Jewish man mistakes two Israeli tourists for Palestinians and opens fire on them in Miami
Victims reportedly posted ‘death to Arabs’ on social media after shooting while suspect held on attempted murder charges

... According to arrest documents, at 9.30pm on Saturday surveillance video appeared to show Mordechai Brafman, 27, getting out of his truck and opening fire with a semiautomatic handgun at a vehicle as it passed. Brafman allegedly fired 17 times, striking one victim in the left shoulder and grazing the other’s left forearm.

While in custody, Brafman spontaneously told detectives that while he was driving his truck, “he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both”, arrest documents said.

Law enforcement officials did not confirm if the victims were in fact Palestinians and the Miami Herald reported that they were actually two vacationing Israelis, naming them as Ari Rabey and his father.

Ironic Moron.

... The outlet reported that as of Monday afternoon, Brafman, the alleged shooter, was being held at the Miami-Dade correctional center on two counts of attempted second-degree murder.

Throw away the key.



Ironic victims. Deport the homicidal bigots. Great minds . . . I had not read down this far when I wrote the preceding:

The Council on American-Islamic Relations’ Florida chapter has called for federal hate crime charges in the shooting.

“It is deeply ironic and telling that both the alleged pro-Israel perpetrator and the pro-Israel victim in the Miami Beach shooting reportedly hold racist anti-Palestinian views,” said Cair’s national executive director, Nihad Awad, on X.

Yup.

“This just the latest example of the hate targeting the Palestinian-American community in this country and Palestinians in their homeland. Policymakers in our nation should stop fomenting the anti-Palestinian hate that led to the genocide in Gaza and to hate crimes in America.”

, but good luck with that. The Zionist lobby and their allies are very powerful here.

House Republican Wants Americans To Get Aboard This Bizarre Trump Idea
Rep. Greg Steube threatened to withhold federal funding from one of America’s largest transit agencies until his MAGA concept hits the rails.



Florida's 17th congressional district

... Steube has previously been clowned for his efforts to rename U.S. coastal waterways after Trump while other GOP lawmakers have looked to kiss the president’s ring by rolling out proposals to rename D.C.’s airport after him, to add his face to Mount Rushmore or to put him on a $250 bill....

Mark Warner
(U.S. Senator from Virginia. Vice Chairman, Senate Intel Committee.)

WMATA is not a vanity project for Donald Trump to steamroll. It’s the backbone of our nation’s capital. When will House Republicans stop trying to suck up to Donald Trump and start focusing on lowering the cost of living?

Rep. Veronica Escobar
(Tejana. Fronteriza. Proudly representing El Paso in the U.S. House of Representatives.)

Republicans are laser-focused on the issues that matter to Americans:

Kicking Americans off their healthcare
Taking food away from American families
Renaming the DC metro after their dear leader

Virtually everyone I know who visits DC, regardless of who they are, agrees that WMATA is the best metro system in the country. Kick rocks, buddy.

You could not be more wrong. WMATA is the best run transit system in the US and has just been getting better & more efficient for years. Leave our beautiful metro out of your culture war bullshit.

I didn't think it was possible, but you've managed to do something even dumber than renaming water.

The Frog of Shame has 484 Likes, Rep Greg Steube has 269 Likes.

The extent to which MAGA politicians are willing to debase themselves to fluff Trump's ego is truly astounding. Kim Jong Un would be jealous.

No longer, but the 17th may have included Cape Coral back when you lived there.

... His bravery helped save the day, and that is a quality that Myvett recognizes in Batman over other fan-favorite comic book heroes.

“I don’t have a Superman pajama because he’s kind of — if you’re impervious and invincible, you’re not really brave," he opined.

He's got a point.

Nowhere in the article does it say they are illegal or have ICE detainers.

Are you stupid, dishonest or just gullible?

Yup. Yup. Yup.

No one has been rioting in Minneapolis. A couple of fireworks don't count unless one is a snowflake.

I can't know about this tragedy, but there are two things we know in general:

1. There is a whole network of Russians, bigots and others who will attach "illegal" to any crime committed by people with Latinx surnames, whether they are citizens or not. Coincidentally, I just came across a forum comment blaming "Illegals" for the disappearance of Nancy Guthrie - no sourcing or evidence, of course.

2. As EVERYONE on BRD knows:

Immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than U.S.-born Americans, studies find

... Some of the most extensive research comes from Stanford University. Economist Ran Abramitzky found that since the 1960s, immigrants are 60% less likely to be incarcerated than U.S.-born people.

There is also state level research, that shows similar results: researchers at the CATO Institute, a libertarian think tank, looked into Texas in 2019. They found that undocumented immigrants were 37.1% less likely to be convicted of a crime.

Beyond incarceration rates, research also shows that there is no correlation between undocumented people and a rise in crime. Recent investigations by The New York Times and The Marshall Project found that between 2007 and 2016, there was no link between undocumented immigrants and a rise in violent or property crime in those communities....

So, ANYONE cherry picking real or imagined crimes committed by "illegal" immigrants to make a point about their supposed threat to society IS stupid, dishonest and gullible.

And irrespective of all that, entering the country without documentation is NOT a criminal offense; it's a civil one.

The Miami-Dade department of corrections probably doesn't report the news.

Your Yahoo search on the other hand did have several articles reveal that all were arrested, maybe they escaped.
