STACY MCCAIN: “Family Demands Answers.” “Say hello to Bryan Axel Ramirez Gomez and, while you’re at it, go ahead and say good-bye, because young Mr. Gomez shuffled off this mortal coil in February, after deciding to start a shootout with police in Elkhart, Indiana, which lasted only three seconds. . . . In this case, despite Gomez having the tactical advantage of firing the first shot, the two cops between them fired 10 shots in three seconds, and scored three hits. The officers were justified, and as for the ‘family demands answer,’ well, they got their answer — not the one they wanted. There won’t be any wrongful death lawsuit. Ben Crump won’t be showing up.”

Plus: “Superior marksmanship by cops may seem like an unfair advantage to criminals who lose shootouts, but it’s not brutality.”

The head of DHS should be a bloodthirsty savage who’s so passionate about removing foreigners that the president has to hold him back and tell him to tone it down.

THEY’RE REALLY ANNOYING: There’s One Creature of The Deep That Can Scare Even Orcas Away. “Just the hint of a squeal from a pod of long-finned pilot whales (Globicephala melas) can send orcas packing. And the best part is that nobody really knows why.”

You hear that squeal and they’ll be up in your grill trying to sell you a time-share before you know it.

TRIGGERNOMETRY INTERVIEWS THE CRITICAL DRINKER: “I define [Christopher Nolan’s] Odyssey as a hero’s journey with no hero.”

At about 7:30 into the interview, co-host Francis Foster says, “I’m just going to pick a movie year at random something like 1996 would [The Odyssey] even have been talked about as much would it have been hyped as much, would everybody be as energized or would it just simply be seen as just another big budget Hollywood movie which is all right but let’s be honest nothing special. Maxim would have given it three out of five stars.”

Funny you said 1996, because yesterday, Clifton Duncan tweeted this collage of absolutely terrific movies from the previous year:

These all came out in 1995.

A big reason people are nostalgic for this era is that even if you only saw one movie a month, you could still see 12 bangers per year.

It wasn’t the studio system of the 1940s, but I miss the reliability of assembly-line Hollywood of the 1980s and ‘90s. If only there was a way to recreate either system.

Also, Cape Coast Castle is where slaves were sold. Shouldn’t Ghana be paying reparations for that?
