Via Daniel Greenfield. The Left wants to tell us where to live, what to eat, what we may drink, and yes, what kind of car we may drive, and if we possess a car at all

The electric streets of La La Land are full of Teslas, Rivians, Mercedes EQS’ and even pricier offerings from the rare earth mines of China. Here a Tesla Cybertruck, looking like a ramp some sportier vehicle will jump, passes Bentleys, canary yellow Lamborghinis and ice blue McLarens.
In the posher parts of California, from Beverly Hills to the Bay Area, the green revolution has come. The ubiquitous EVs charging in the driveways of seven figure mansions are shadowed by solar panels on the roof and sit side by side with signs declaring, “Hate has no home here.”

Neither does affordability.

The vast majority of electric cars, approaching 1 million, can be found in California. Compare that to the paltry 5,000 EVs in Arkansas or even the under 50,000 in a sizable wealthy blue state like Massachusetts. The entire industry of sleek shiny cars that run on batteries only exists because California taxed other car buyers to subsidize Tesla and its emerging counterparts.

California’s heavy subsidies and mild weather, its wealthy cities and conspicuously virtue signaling elites, made EVs possible, and made it impossible for them to evolve outside its warm leftist ecosystem. The vast majority of Californians (like most Americans) can’t afford, can’t use and won’t drive electric cars, but like so much else, the Newsom elites don’t tend to notice.

Electric car owners in California live in “communities with mostly white and Asian, college-educated and high-income residents” who are mostly “concentrated in Silicon Valley cities and affluent coastal areas of Los Angeles and Orange counties.” That’s why most electric cars are luxury SUVs marketed to very exclusive groups in very exclusive areas.

Outside of these enclaves, there isn’t much of an EV industry and there never will be one. Electric cars are not an emerging product, but a niche one as subsidized toys for the rich.

Go read it all. And yes, there will come a day when they will tell you what you may read, what you may not, and, what you must

Via Bearing Arms

Christine Jenneiahn.was asleep in her home early on March 13th when she was woken up by a man wearing a black ski mask who was pointing a gun at her face. The man slapped a pair of handcuffs on Jenneiahn and led her out to the living room, cuffing her to a chair and demanding to know where she kept her valuables. 

At one point the man, later identified by authorities as 39-year-old Derek Ephriam Condon, discovered that Jenneiahn’s disabled adult son was in the home and threatened to kill her for not alerting him that someone else was in the home. That’s when Jenneiahn decided she needed to try to get her gun.

When Condon went downstairs again at some point, Jenneiahn dragged the chair she was handcuffed to into her bedroom and got her .357 Magnum revolver, which was under her pillow.

She then went back into the living room and “hid the revolver” between the armrest and cushion of a couch next to where she was sitting while she waited to see what Condon did next, the review detailed.

“Her memory of exactly what happened next remains somewhat unclear,” according to the review.

She told investigators that at some point, Condon came back into the living room and threatened to kill her as he continued to burglarize her home.

Jenneiahn ultimately made the decision that it was “now or never” and drew her gun and “engaged Condon, striking him with both her shots.” Officials told EastIdahoNews.com she shot him in the area of his chest.

Or that’s how it seems to me. Police: Man shoots naked St. Louis apartment intruder in self-defense

How would you react if a naked man broke through the wall of your apartment and then threatened to kill you and your family?

Investigators say the suspect broke through the wall of the victim’s apartment while naked. As the suspect entered the home, he reportedly made remarks in which he threatened to kill the victim and his family.

A short time later, the victim pulled out a weapon and shot the suspect’s left hand.

Naked Justice……
