2…………> China Overwhelmed By UFO Reports

.
China’s UFO task force has been “overwhelmed” by reports of mysterious sightings about UFOs, which are known as “unidentified air conditions” in China, and have been on the rise, which prompted the UFO unit to resort to the use of artificial intelligence during investigations of the incidents. The Chinese military believes that sightings of unidentified objects are more likely caused by “humans than aliens”, a local scientist told the South China Morning Post. The uptick in apparent UFO activity might be explained by the increasing use of recreational drones by civilians as well as the US sending reconnaissance planes to the South China Sea.

3…………> CA NO To Assault Weapons Ban
.
Federal judge Roger Benitez said the law went against the constitutional Second Amendment right to bear arms, as he found that the way California defines military-style rifles deprives the state’s residents of weapons allowed elsewhere in the US, and Governor Gavin Newsom described the ruling as a threat to public safety:

‘I won’t ever stop fighting to stop gun violence’
California Attorney General Rob Bonta said the authorities would appeal against the decision, which the judge suspended for 30 days to allow the appeal to be lodged.

In the opening to his ruling, Judge Benitez wrote:

“Like the Swiss Army knife, the popular AR-15 rifle is a perfect combination of home defense weapon and homeland defense equipment. Good for both home and battle.”

4…………..> Sand Bandits Caught & Punished

.
Dozens of people are facing fines of up to €3,000 ($3,650) for removing beach sand and shells from the Italian island of Sardinia, according to a local media report, as authorities said that 41 individuals had been reported for the theft of about 100kg (220lb) of items from beaches in separate incidents, since its famed white sand is treasured on the island and it is strictly forbidden to remove it. The trade in Sardinian sand, pebbles and shells was made illegal in 2017.

The fines imposed might seem heavy-handed, but for years islanders have complained about the theft of their natural assets, and tourists, mainly Europeans and including some Italians, bottle the sand to keep as souvenirs or auction it online.
