Now It’s Georgia’s Turn to Waste Money on AI Gun Detection

Now It’s Georgia’s Turn to Waste Money on AI Gun Detection
State lawmakers are back at it, proving once again that when it comes to school safety, the preferred solution is buying technology instead of confronting reality. This time from the state of Georgia. A new proposal moving through the state Capitol, House Bill 1023, would require weapons detection systems at every student point of entry in all Georgia public schools.

So apparently when federal agents shoot a man multiple times and he dies, that is officially called a homicide. Groundbreaking stuff. On Feb. 2, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office ruled that the Jan. 24 killing of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old Minneapolis nurse, was a homicide. The medical examiner said Pretti died from multiple gunshot wounds after being shot by law enforcement officers.

WA Teen Safecracker Convicted in School Shooting Plot

People keep calling this a “foiled plot,” which makes it sound abstract and distant, like something out of a movie script that never made it to production. What actually happened in Kennewick, Washington, was much simpler and much closer to…
WA Teen Safecracker Convicted in School Shooting Plot
People keep calling this a “foiled plot,” which makes it sound abstract and distant, like something out of a movie script that never made it to production. What actually happened in Kennewick, Washington, was much simpler and much closer to disaster. Fourteen-year-old Mason Bently-Ray Ashby, a ninth grader at Kamiakin High School, was arrested on September 20th, 2025, after a TikTok post showing a color-coded map of the school was reported to the FBI by a child in Florida.

ProPublica Names Alleged Killers of Alex Pretti
On February 1, 2026, ProPublica did what the federal government refused to do: it told the public who actually pulled the triggers in Minneapolis. The masked immigration agents who 'allegedly' shot and killed Alex Pretti were Jesus Ochoa, 43, and Raymundo Gutierrez, 35. If you think publishing the names of armed government agents who fired roughly ten rounds into a man lying on the ground is 'doxxing,' you can bite my perineum.

Freelance income is volatile, and a recent drastic change means my work no longer pays a living wage on its own.

Patreon support directly bridges that gap and keeps this reporting sustainable.
