Things have changed around here
You may or may not have noticed a new blogger at this site who is not SayUncle. That is quite intentional and welcomed. Thibodeaux has been invited to join the SayUncle team. He is/was a regular commenter here and I felt he had insightful stuff to say. So, I invited him aboard. He described himself as an objective libertarian, which I assume is the same thing as a small l libertarian. Please, welcome him and make him feel at home.
I had taken on a couple other writers a while back but they quickly lost interest. Actually, one never posted at all. Go figure. Slackers.
I have been trying for a while to get more writers for this site. I have long felt that group blogs are the way to go so that you get a variety of opinion. It’s hard to find them as most of them already have blogs and don’t want to come to another site that they don’t own. That is understandable.
I wish other smaller pro-gun bloggers (though they can blog about stuff other than guns, of course) would contemplate contributing here because we are more powerful if we are consolidated. I think it’s better if gun folks have centralized resources that they can draw upon instead of many distributed resources. It makes getting the message out easier.
One caveat, no anti-gun bloggers. I’m biased. Actually, I’m not so much biased as bigoted. See, I assume people who favor more gun control in the US are fucking stupid. I find that assumption to be correct about 99.9% of the time. There are exceptions that I can’t figure out. After all, Tim seems to be a rather intelligent, rational and thoughtful guy. I must conclude he is in league with the forces of darkness as there is no other explanation. Actually, Tim is not evil, he’s Australian. And Tim is right about John Lott most of the time.
So, if interested drop me an email.
Update: Apologies to Tim here.

That made me laugh…in a “I just slammed 7 beers after a bad day at work” kind of way…

Objectivist/Libertarian. As someone else put it (I forgot who), the bastard child of Ayn Rand and Robert Heinlein.
“Small-l libertarian” is probably close enough. Basically, I want the government to leave us alone. Right now, my focus is on GUNS, BABY, GUNS!

No barry, you’re just in league with the forces of nanny darkness.

I just got my very first gun yesterday, for my birthday. A Springfield .45 with Commander slide. I love it.

Anti-gun? Moi?
Say Uncle suggests
that I am “anti-gun” and implies that I “favor more gun control in the
US”.
