The other day I caught Resident Evil: Extinction on cable. I figure since it had Milla Jovovich, guns and zombies it was win-win. In the movie, Milla carries two Para Ordinance LDA pistols.

This site and Kerby from Para confirmed. Other movies featuring ParaUSA firearms. In other news, there is actually a Wiki set up for firearms seen in movies.

Despite being thoroughly debunked, the Mexican Gun Canard continues:

Fox News already debunked the claim that 90% of the guns involved in Mexico’s drug war come from the United States. Facts aside, the press onslaught continues in a new push for gun control.

The fact is that out of 29,000 firearms picked up in Mexico over the last two-year period for which data is available, 5,114 of the 6,000 traced guns came from the United States. While that is 90% of traced guns, it means that only 17% of recovered guns come from the United States civilian market.

UPI and the Departement of Homeland Security are still parroting the line.

The Paper of making up the Record chimes in too.

Armslist. Note I have not used it and that’s not an endorsement. Looks like it’s just taking off.

BTW, I can’t make it to the K-town event as I am at a secure and undisclosed location. But if I were going, I’d probably have this sign:

I guess if the Tea Parties can drive some on the left that insane, they must be doing something right.

If I showed up at a Tea Party protest with a sign that said something to the effect of Funny how Republicans support limited government when they’re not in power, how do you think that would go over?

More on the Mexican Gun Canard.

I’m a bit bummed. See, a few weeks back, I had to get rid of my dog. I’m sad to say that Politically Incorrect Dog is no longer a part of the Uncle family. No worries about his well-being or anything like that. He’s found himself a good place and, per updates we receive, he’s doing quite well and is happy.

The reason he left was that, well, he was too much dog for two small kids. His attempts at getting affection and play were a bit on the reckless side. And he was clearly jealous of the amount of attention the kids received. I did not think for a minute that he’d intentionally harm my children but that he might do so inadvertently. He was corrected for the behavior yet it continued. And, well, with little ones around, there is no room for mistakes.

So, I delivered him to the nice lady who would be his new home. When I dropped him off, I cried. A lot. It’s a tough thing after you’ve had a dog for seven years. But leave it to Junior to add some levity to the situation. As I was leaving with him, she said So, can we get a kitty now? We’re undecided on the cat. She wants one but me and the Mrs. are not cat people.

Anyway, the Mrs. wanted a new dog. I was wanting to wait a bit. She was pretty insistent on getting a dog. And we know how that goes. We opted for a more docile animal. Meet Flash:

From Home Life

Only had him for a few days. Two and a half (ish) year old Bassett hound. A rescue, of sorts. Talk about extremes. I’m not used to having a dog that lounges around all the time. And in terms of obedience training, he has none.

Politico:

Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) and a growing number of national security experts are calling on Congress to consider using letters of marque and reprisal, a power written into the Constitution that allows the United States to hire private citizens to keep international waters safe.

Used heavily during the Revolution and the War of 1812, letters of marque serve as official warrants from the government, allowing privateers to seize or destroy enemies, their loot and their vessels in exchange for bounty money.

Or we could just mount a 50 cal on boats. Seems that’d work wonders on a rubber raft.

An admission:

The difference in this debate is that I have been arguing on the basis of what I believe to be true, and doing my best to explain why I believe it. Kevin, by way of contrast, claims to be able to literally ‘prove’ his case beyond any doubt whatsoever by recourse to detailed statistical data.

Well, yeah. And he did.
