Heh:

If you are prepared for the dead to walk the earth in search of human brains, then a hurricane or attempted mugging is no big deal.

Mossberg plinkster. Yeah, this and the Charger are another one of those I don’t get (like the Taurus judge). But whatever floats your boat.

Mayor Daley:

This is all about guns, and that’s why the crusade is on

Well, then the solution is easy. Ban guns in Chicago. Oh, wait. That didn’t work:

So far this year, 113 people have been killed across Chicago, the same number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined in the same period, Fritchey said.

And some want the National Guard in Chicago.

But they are pushing to pass as many gun laws as they can before McDonald.

According to Jay.

Two events are making fun of som religious notions. First is the Boobquake. Seems some Iranian cleric said scantily clad women cause earthquakes. Because it sounds reasonable. If you live in the 12th century. So, in the name of science, women are dressing scantily. We need more days like that.

Next is that in May, they’re having an everyone draw Muhammad day. Depictions of him are not viewed favorably by the faith and some of his more, err, robust followers are threatening the creators of South Park with death over their episode depicting Muhammad, even though the episode didn’t actually depict Muhammad. Unfortunately, the creators pussed out and are now saying it was a bad idea. It’s probably offensive to some folks to do such a thing. And I mean the ones not threatening to blow people up.

Me: you hear Jada Pinkett Smith was beat up pretty badly?

Wife: Will Smith’s wife?

Me: Yeah, he’s the primary suspect. At the scene, they found fresh prints.

Wife: You’re a horrible man.

The trailer for the show. Hey, I know one of those guys.

Trying to pass as much gun control as they can before McDonald.

David Kopel has a look at what the head of Mayors Against Guns is up to.

Steven Hawking says don’t talk to aliens. Because they’re probably higher-tech and more powerful versions of us.

Not here, but here.

Mossberg over/under.

Pakistani bolt actions.

This is actually common among practical rifle shooters and three gunners. Scope for longer range and tilt the gun for close range and faster shots. And you just tilt it for a fast transition. You can see Miculek’s set up here.

Bob Owens has more on the issue. Seems ATF can’t comply with a simple FOIA request. And, like I said, you cannot convert them to machine guns:

An Airsoft expert from England dismissed the claim as absurd. In the U.S., AirSplat expert Jon Dibblee — who was once Sgt. Jon Dibblee, a U.S. Army infantryman — categorically denied that the WE Tech M4s could be made into machine guns, an expert opinion supported by a gunsmith specializing in the AR rifle who examined another WE Tech in great detail.

Chicago police head says deploying the national guard is not the solution to gun violence.

Look, we may or may not agree on the effectiveness of the open carry movement. But I hope we agree that this guy needs a holster.

Busy weekend means little to no blog.

This past week, The Daily Show was spot on a lot. Their Tea Party coverage was actually quite good. And the interview was good. Seems Stewart gets it but isn’t exactly all gung how about it.

And this is brilliant.

Remember, kids, just because you have the right of way doesn’t mean other people aren’t stupid.

ObamaCare to cost more than expected.

You don’t say?

A look at potential gun company sponsors since her departure from Glock.

In light of yesterday’s look, here’s another look.

Less transparency than the secretive Bush administration:

One year into its promise of greater government transparency, the Obama administration is more often citing exceptions to the nation’s open records law to withhold federal records even as the number of requests for information declines, according to a review by The Associated Press of agency audits about the Freedom of Information Act.

[…]

Major agencies cited the exemption at least 70,779 times during the 2009 budget year, up from 47,395 times during President George W. Bush’s final full budget year, according to annual reports filed by federal agencies. Obama was president for nine months in the 2009 period.

But doesn’t say much

Update: One of my friends who I went with has his review too, only sans Haiku. I am nothing like Nicolas Cage.
