So, we have an event where a former UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) lecturer was eventually arrested for making assorted threats to assorted people, because reasons. This event was brought to my attention because one if my subscription news outlets is an independent journalist named Lisa Daftari and her own website The Foreign Desk. She consolidates national and international events. I like it for a non-mainstream source. I digress.

Let's delve into the coverage of the event by the two sources, shall we?

News Source #1: from the mainstream ABC News

"Authorities arrested Harris without incident after a standoff at his Boulder, Colorado home. The Boulder Police Department began an investigation soon after receiving the threatening emails and an 800-page manifesto from UCLA. The school's police department tracked Harris to Boulder and reached out to law enforcement there.

"Upon reviewing parts of the manifesto, we identified thousands of references to violence, stating things such as killing, death, murder, shootings, bombs, schoolyard massacre in Boulder, and phrases like burn and attack boulder outside of the university," said Boulder Police Chief Maris Herold at a news conference. Authorities said he attempted to buy a handgun in November but his purchase was denied. Officials believe the transaction did not go through because of a California-based protection order that said he could not purchase or possess a firearm.

Police evacuated nearby schools, residents, and businesses, and issued a shelter-in-place to 65 homes near the apartment complex where Harris was holed up, officials said. A crisis intervention team assisted with Harris' surrender.

UCLA's administrative vice chancellor Michael J. Beck released a statement that read, in part:

I am greatly relieved to share that law enforcement officers in Colorado have taken into custody the individual who made threats against some members of our UCLA community yesterday. While we will continue with our plans to keep instruction remote today, with this development, we will return to in-person instruction tomorrow."

Harris was placed on leave from UCLA last year and a female University of California, Irvine philosophy professor was granted a restraining order against him after he sent emails to his mother threatening to "hunt" the professor and "put bullets in her skull." Harris' mother alerted the woman. Harris came to UCLA after completing his dissertation, "Continents in Cognition," at Duke University in 2019. Duke is where he first met the woman who was the subject of the restraining order. They had "minimal contact" but he reached out to her to discuss career advice in September 2020 because he had recently moved to Los Angeles, according to the court documents.

Harris allegedly "began an aggressive campaign" of text messages and emails to the woman, leading her to fear for her safety. She told him to stop contacting her in March 2021.

Separately, UCLA that month placed him on investigatory leave for "predatory behavior" when the school had found he sent pornographic and violent content to students, court documents state.

In April, the professor was contacted by Harris' mother, who told her that four months earlier her son had sent her emails saying he wanted to move closer to the Irvine campus where the professor worked so he could kill her, court documents show. UC Irvine is about 50 miles south of UCLA.


"I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I did nothing and someone got hurt," Harris' mother wrote to the woman. His mother had not seen her son in five years and believed he was in need of psychiatric help, court document show. The University of California regents sought a workplace violence restraining order last May, the day after UCLA officials learned Harris had been released from a mental health facility and was back in Los Angeles. A temporary restraining order was granted immediately, and a longer protective order - in place until 2024 - was approved less than a month later. The court documents say that UCLA's police department and its Behavioral Intervention Team were aware of the threats against the professor and reached out to the FBI.

Harris was being held in Colorado on state charges and federal charges may be pursued. It wasn't immediately known if Harris had a lawyer who could speak on his behalf.

UCLA announced late Monday that all classes for Tuesday were going to be 100% remote after threats were made toward members of the university's philosophy department.


Students say Harris sent an email to his former philosophy department threatening to hurt faculty and staff.

Harris posted hundreds of videos online Monday, including one showing video of the mass shooting in Las Vegas and the massacre at Columbine High School.

Students who had Harris as a professor say the trouble began last year and exploded Monday as news of his latest threats spread on social media."

~~~~~~~~~

OK, threatening people, restraining order because he wild, having his own mother contact the police, denied a gun purchase because restraining order, mildly interesting. Cool story, glad nobody got hurt... why do we care about another news source? Seems pretty straightforward, right?

Seems pretty straightforward..........right?

meanwhile, from the not-so-mainstream news we have...

News Source #2 of same event: Jerusalem Post

"Upon reviewing parts of the manifesto, we identified thousands of references to violence, stating things such as killing, death, murder, shootings, bombs, schoolyard massacre in Boulder, and phrases like 'burn and attack Boulder,'" said Boulder Police Chief Maris Herold. He revealed that Harris had "attempted to buy an unknown handgun at a store located in Jefferson County on November 2; he was denied this purchase."

"We are greatly relieved to share that law enforcement officers in Colorado have taken into custody the individual who made threats against some members of our UCLA community yesterday," the university said in a statement on Monday. "The threats made yesterday were frightening for many of us and caused our community to feel vulnerable at an already challenging time."

While the police and university did not name the man arrested, a leaked faculty email named Matthew Harris, a former postdoctoral researcher and lecturer at UCLA, as the person that emailed a series of threats to staff and his former philosophy department. Included in some of the emails were his manifesto and a series of videos, including one called "UCLA Philosophy Mass Shooting."

Harris's manifesto espoused hatred, anger, and designs of great violence against Jews, Caucasians, Asians and women, among other groups. Throughout the document, he outlined an erratic black supremacist ideology and claims of his own messianic divinity. He criticized Black Lives Matter saying that it "should have been a terrorist army, not a hip trend." He called on black Americans to rise up in revolution and dominate the world. African Americans "who support terrorism and genocide support themselves," proclaimed one chapter title.

"Violence against Jews should happen. Retaliation and retribution for what they have stolen is legitimate and a good thing," Harris wrote of Jews.
Harris claimed that the Holocaust was exaggerated, but also expressed some admiration for Adolf Hitler, though he criticized him for not going far enough. Harris said that "If [Jesus] was so great the Jews wouldn’t have been able to kill him. He didn’t even invade Poland."

He accused Jews of removing him from social media, and asserted that Jewish women were attempting to replace populations by marrying into them. "The perfect Holocaust is a completed one," read one chapter heading

Harris called for the genocide of white men, who he often paired with Jews as being the sources of societal ailments. "C**rs and K*es shall die," he wrote.

Some time after receiving the threats, UCLA moved its classes online. However, the university received backlash online over its delayed response in notifying its student body of the threat.

Ha, Whoopi Goldberg suspended from The View for Holocaust comment

She claimed the Holocaust wasn't about racism because it was a white on white problem. She apparently forgot who runs Hollywood.


I wonder if Ted Danson still has that nasty taste in his mouth.

Leupold Mark 5HD Owners - Question

What are the turrets "supposed to be like" on the Leupold Mark 5HD? Do the tick marks perfectly align? Does each click correspond directly with tick marks on the elevation knob being directly aligned to the reference mark on the scope tube (i.e., you don't have to spin one click past your destination and go back to get alignment)?

I want to make sure my expectations of a $2,200 MSRP scope aren't... out of line.

Story:
I just received my second Leupold Mark 5HD. The first one delivered to me had a bad turret that wouldn't unlock (without a lot of force) and would only turn just shy of one revolution before getting stuck again on the lock. The tick marks on said elevation turret were also very misaligned -- in fact the entire turret structure below the elevation turret was slightly off vs the reference mark on the tube. I contacted Leupold, they said they'll warranty it. Fine... except I have to be without my brand new scope for (according to them) about 6 weeks. I mean shit happens and Leupold's staff was nice and give me an 2-day shipping label there but... the next 6 weeks for me is the most time I'll have all year to go shooting so I asked the reseller... exchange? Thankfully, after a bit of a "debate", the reseller exchanged it.

Welp... received the new one today. The elevation turret on this one is kind of loose feeling. The tick marks are again misaligned vs. the reference mark on the tube. This time less so... that is until you get to about where the 6 MIL tick is and then the alignment is just completely off. On top of that, when I turn the dial, I have to manually place the elevation knob's tick mark in alignment with the reference mark when I reach my destination (it's like... a gummy feeling turret) -- they don't just line up, you kind of have to go one click past your end point and return once in order to get the tick marks lined up properly.

My Nikon FX1000 is better than this and it cost me 1/4 the price. Most of my hunting scopes are Sightrons... the tick marks line up perfectly all the way around the dial.

Is this how Mark 5HDs are? Or am I just riddled with bad luck here?

Ghetto blasting during robbery

Ring camera catches hood rats trying to rob hood rat woman of her ghetto dogs. The lady in question apparently raises some kind of mini-pitbull, perfect for thug ladies to carry in their purse or something. She puts them for sale on hoodrat.com, facebook market place or some other web site designed for selling stolen property.

Thugs see dogs for sale and call, then arrange to stop by to meet the owner and arrive armed and blasting to get their "free" puppy. Seller grabs an AR pistol and steps off blastin like a mofo and popping caps an shit. All on Ring camera.

As you can see training is wayyyyyyyyy over rated, so it aiming.............................man fuck all that aimin and shit just blass off muh fucka and let dem fly. Apparently, after review cops arrested her as well, probably for felon in possession of a firearm.

Snorkeling With The Cool Kids,

So many of ya'll, talk and show off about your balmy tropics, and/or winter travels to places where you and your kids go snorkeling in the Gulf, and whatnot.

Then there are the other Cool Kids who've got the snorkel kit and 'special wires' for their vehicle to go traversing through the rivers and such.

But you know that you've really made it, when you see the prudence in needing not one, but TWO snorkels on your house. Because of 'Winter' and 'winds' and 'drifting snow' and such.

This/these truly DO make the difference between "warm and cozy" and "cold and drafty".

And from the side, for perspective:

Why would the plumber/builder do this...

I'm renovating my kitchen. Ripped out the cabinets and discovered a mild moldy spot on the drywall near the floor. After ripping it all off I found a singe cold water PEX line that feeds water to the master toilet on the 2nd floor. Turns out the kitchen cabinet installers drilled a screw right through the pipe so it has been slowly leaking since the house was built. That's patched now.

I'm confused as to why they ran a single line from the crawl space on the outside wall to the toilet on a 2nd floor? There is also an interior wall right next to it that could have fed the line up under the floor. I'm concerned about gaining access to it in the future should something happen after installing a massive marble backsplash.

I'm leaning towards running a new line from the crawl space through the interior wall, but once I start ripping out the tub it may be easier to borrow from that cold line. Any reason I should do pick one solution over the other? Are toilets supposed to have a dedicated line from the crawl space?

Drones for personal use

Im thinking of getting a drone to film us on ATV rides. Anyone have experience with them? My budget is between 1k-2k. I know some have a function that will follow you around based on facial recognition. But obviously if im in my Side by Side, that option wont work. But what about vehicle recognition?

So will I need to have someone always piloting this thing while im driving? What options do you guys suggest?
