New Entwistle evidence

Filed under: law & crime by Victoria Liberty @ 6:33 pm

The Boston Herald has discovered some new evidence in the Neil Entwistle case: a small amount of gunshot primer residue was found on a knife in Entwistle’s house. Gunshot residue is commonly found on the hands and clothing of someone who fires a gun, so this means that Entwistle probably touched the knife after he allegedly shot his wife and baby daughter.

Entwistle has told investigators that he found his wife and baby dead and was so distraught he tried to commit suicide with a knife, but could not bring himself to do it. Perhaps the part about the knife is true! Maybe Entwistle intended to carry out a murder-suicide, but the gun got jammed or was out of bullets or something… Then as a last resort he reached for a knife to kill himself, but was too afraid to. That’s my theory anyway, but it could be wrong.

Check out the Herald’s two recent articles:

Tancredo drops out

Filed under: politics by Victoria Liberty @ 5:37 pm

Tom Tancredo announced today that he is dropping out of the presidential race and endorsing Mitt Romney. This is a little disappointing, as Tancredo was one of the more unique candidates, with his strong anti-illegal-immigration views. Now I’m even more sure that I will vote for Ron Paul, since Tancredo was probably my second choice. Hopefully Paul will get some of Tancredo’s votes now…

Ron Paul’s interview

Filed under: politics by Victoria Liberty @ 10:16 pm

I watched Ron Paul on Glenn Beck last night, and I thought it was a great interview. I agreed with a lot of what Paul had to say, and I appreciated that he got a chance to explain his positions fully. He talked a great deal about making the government smaller and cutting government expenses.

“We spend, and then we tax, and then we borrow, and we still don’t have enough money,” he said. Paul went on to explain that he believes in cutting domestic programs and making social security optional. He also said that “You also have a right to the fruits of your labor, which is why I’m so opposed to the income tax.”

One of the reasons why I like Paul is because of his belief in the Constitution – he wants an America that’s more like the America of our founding fathers. “To me the Constitution is very libertarian,” he said in the interview. “The Constitution was written to restrain the government, not to restrain the people.”

As you may have seen, I added a link to his site in the sidebar; I think I’ve decided on him as my primary candidate. Go Ron Paul!
