-------T HE NAKED TRUTH--Naked woman driving a golf cart interrupted police
during 6-hr stand-of. It sounds like something straight out of an action-comedy
movie. A woman was arrested in Florida after she interrupted a police stand-off
by ploughing through the tense scenes on a golf cart - while naked. Jessica E
Smith, 28, now faces a charge for resisting an officer without violence after her
antics that disrupted the police, who say they were in the middle of a 6-hr armed
standoff with suspects near Tampa, when Smith made things even more difficult.
Police were first on the scene due to reports of someone shooting at others from
the roof of a home, according to WFLA. When the suspects fled the area,
officers chased after them. A gun was fired by one of the suspects towards
bystanders, but fortunately, no one was injured, - though, during their attempted
escape, the suspect allegedly shot himself in the leg. As all this was happening,
Smith drove into the crime scene in her golf cast, despite several Pinellas Cnty
Sheriff’s Office patrol cars marking the area, according to court documents. Despite being warned by officers to get out
of the cart, Smith allegedly ignored their demands & continued to drive toward the target’s home. Her “actions &
inability to follow directions put multiple deputies at risk for potentially getting shot at,” the affidavit read. Police were
eventually able to get Smith out of the golf cart & apprehend her with handcuffs. By Sinead Butler, Newsbreak

T_WEEKLY_NEWS2021 aspx . --- The Sturgis ‘Super-Spreader’
That Wasn’t. The Leftmedia’s hyped COVID fears of the
motorcycle rally proved unfounded.
As thousands of bikers converged in the Black Hills of SD for the
annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally during the 2 week of Aug, they
nd
were dubiously branded by the Leftmedia know-nothings as
dangerous COVID “super-spreaders.” The Washington Post
provided the typical hysteria with an articled titled, “Sturgis
Motorcycly Rally revs up, drawing though sands & heightening
delta super spreader fears.” But it wasn’t just the Leftmedia that
blasted SD for allowing the rally. Dr Fauci offered this politically
tainted prediction: “I’m very concerned … that we are going to see
another surge related to that rally. I mean, to me it’s
understandable that people want to do the kinds of things they
want to do. They want their freedom to do that. But there comes a
time when you’re dealing with a public health crisis that could involve you, your family, & everyone else that something
supersedes that need to do exactly what you want to do.” Fauci’s authoritarian fearmongering came through especially
strongly, likely because SD Rep Gov Noem has steadfastly refused to encroach upon her constituents’ constitutional
rights. Further demonstrating that Fauci’s concerns are tied more to politics than science was his silence over
Obama’s 60th birthday bash. Hundreds of guests turned up to celebrate at the former president’s estate on Martha’s
Vineyard, yet not a peep came from the doc over it being a potential super-spreader event. Now that the end of the
Sturgis rally is done — the accepted incubation period for the manifestation of COVID infections — has the event lived
up to the Leftmedia’s hype? As Hinderaker observes: “The U.S. as a whole averaged 276 new covid cases per
100,000 population over the last 7 days, while SD averaged only 156. SD has fewer new cases than all surrounding
states except Minnesota & Iowa, which have 5% & 4% fewer new cases per 100,000 than SD, respectively.” Did the
Leftmedia talking heads admit that their super-spreader concerns were much ado about nothing? As everyone already
knows, the answer is no. & there will be no follow-up mea culpa, because the issue isn’t really COVID at all. The real
issue is Americans being free to engage in their constitutionally protected right to assembly. That’s a freedom leftists
don’t believe Americans should be able to exercise without permission.--Thomas Gallatin Patriot Post
