In Michigan, the onerous safety inspections of handguns are about to be history.

The only two saving graces for your campaign as far as I’m concerned is that of supreme court judges and that you’re not Barack So a pirate walks into bar Obama. But there was this third thing I was holding out for. It was that your Vice Presidential choice would not suck. Let’s face it, you’re kinda old.

The rumors are that you’re looking at Mitt Romney as your Veep pick. Now, I don’t like Romney. At all. The guy is even more of a Democrat than you are. So, why do you insist on making the already daunting task of getting hammered, holding my nose and voting for you even more miserable?

If you do pick Romney and are elected, I hope we make some major strides in life extending technology.

Not sure why but I was exposed to all this feminism at once. So, you get to suffer for it.

First up, KAG on Why We Still Need Feminism:

Democratic candidate for Property Assessor Andrew Graybeal referred to me as “darlin’” in discussing his planned appearance with me.

Yes, he called me “darlin’”

OMG! Darlin! When will the oppressive patriarchy end! Actually, I think this shows why most view feminism as a joke.

Speaking of feminism as a joke (via AC):

Just like every year except 1984, the list of serious contenders for the Democratic VP spot appears to be another boring list of people with penises.

Yes, the most important aspect of the selection of a Veep is their genitalia. Which is why Obama would be better off picking Paris Hilton over a statesman like, say, Russ Feingold. I bet Egalia would just be absolutely giddy if McCain picked Condi Rice, right?

And lastly, a decision to take responsibility for your own safety is a decision to leave the feminist sisterhood (via SM). Now, listen up, sweetie. I understand. I mean, guns are tools for self-defense. And, well, women aren’t so good with tools. No, kidding aside, seems those who want to empower women are OK up until the point you actually want to, you know, empower women.

Did they find a shoulder thing that goes up?

NY Post:

An outspoken Long Island gun owner’s home was raided by Nassau County detectives, who seized two dozen weapons he lawfully owns just one day after Rep. Carolyn McCarthy’s office made a 911 call about him.

Freeport resident Gabriel Razzano claims he was targeted in the spring raid for his “unpopular” political beliefs.

Nice.

Did you know that movie trailers can’t show a gun pointed at the audience?

I’d love to see that business plan.

So, it looks like the Moms Against Guns group held itself out as a non-profit in order to get free billboards in Philly. Turns out, they’re not a non-profit and mislead Clear Channel Outdoor. The group is self-funded.

Ah, the ethics of anti-gunners. Once again, lying to win.

Oh, nevermind.

heh.

SF Mayor:

“[NRA is against] anything that restricts the opportunity for a guy who gets cut off in traffic from pulling out a hand gun and almost assassinating an entire family, as was the case a few days ago in San Francisco, where three people were gunned down. That somehow that is appropriate and wonderful and that person celebrated his freedom to carry a loaded pistol.”

Never heard of ’em.

Via Dr. Helen, Reason Mag ranks the top 35 most populous cities by their relative nannyism.

Strangely, the supposedly least nanny city is experiencing population growth.

First, big government nanny stater John McCain could not say whether or not Barack Yanni Obama was a socialist. And now, big government nanny stater Joe Lieberman:

I must say, that’s a good question . . . I will tell you that during this campaign, I’ve learned some things about him, about the kind of environment from which he came ideologically. And I wouldn’t . . . I’d hesitate to say he’s a Marxist, but he’s got some positions that are far to the left of me and I think mainstream America.

Well, one in six guns on earth is an AK-47. But you’re going to have to convince the average white person to have any sway in this country. And that will take decades.

A gun that fires variable speed bullets!

I disagree.

Update: Actually, it farts rainbows.

A while back, I noted the case of Mark Edward Marchiafava:

Mark Edward Marchiafava did not break the law in Gonzales, La. on January 28, 2006. But nonetheless, he was handcuffed, arrested, and his firearm, which he was legally carrying in the open on his side that day, was confiscated and not returned.

His property was returned shortly after. Mr. Marchiafava emails me that the attorneys for the police involved opted to settle out of court. He notes that the grand jury absolutely refused to allow any testimony or evidence that indicated criminal wrongdoing on the part of the police.

The Christian Science Monitor has a long tradition of being anti-gun and un-christian and un-science. After all, making stuff up isn’t very christian or very sciency. But I digress.

The latest is this tripe (careful with that link, it may hijack your browser) from their blog: Obama’s views on gun control align with battleground areas’

The trick, of course, is that you have to completely ignore everything Barack You’re Soaking In It Obama has ever said about or voted on with respect to guns and focus your sights on one little statement he made that one time after a landmark court decision basically said banning handguns (a position Obama has supported by writing it out in his own handwriting) was unconstitutional. And you have to forget that Obama did not sign the senate brief to the supreme court in the Heller case that supported an individual right to arms. In other words, that one time at band camp, he said that one thing.

Obama shill Dante Chinni then proceeds to use 2004 data to show Americans largely support gun control even though the gun controls Americans support in the study are not the kinds of gun controls Obama has supported. So, why does Chinni use 2004 data? Oh, I think I know why that is.

No, the other kind.

A couple of women gun bloggers have learned that, despite my general opposition, wearing more clothing to the range is a good idea. Ouch and ouch.

Good: A third-grade teacher arrested for taking a gun onto school property was set for trial today, but prosecutors dropped all charges.
