NRA Annual Meeting Stuff

A lot of pics

Gun bloggers get to fondle Hollywood movie guns.

Not one Not two. But three, count them, three Alans.

Size really does matter

Converting Airsoft Guns to Machine Guns

Remember how ATF and customs said you could convert Airsoft toys to machine guns? And how they were full of it? Well, FoxNews is buying it now:

All you have to do is drill one hole.

Then somebody make one. And go fire it.

The protest that wasn’t

We tried to make it to the ProtestEasyGuns event but were too late. A few people showed up and were reportedly laughed. I didn’t get to make fun of hippies.

More debate coverage

Joe has a report with pics. And why guns are like porn.

Quote of the Day

Paul Helmke at the Federalist Society Debate (paraphrased):

Alan Gura argues in front of the supreme court. I argue in front of the Supreme Court Building.

Joe snapped this pic:

OC Case in Court

OMG!! Man with a gun buying groceries:

It is legal to carry a firearm openly in the state of Washington, but prosecutors with the Vancouver city attorney’s office filed the charge — which makes it unlawful to display a weapon in a manner “that either manifests an intent to intimidate another or warrants alarm” — based on witness observations.

Witnesses, including two men who have concealed weapons permits, told police Kirby looked like “Wyatt Earp, ready to draw.” Witnesses also said he was “giving everyone the eyeball with his hand on the gun,” according to police reports.

Guns and mental illness

And getting rights restored.

In charlotte

Let the games begin

Booga Booga

You civil rights are scary

Light blogging

Busy. Stuff to wrap up. Then, to Charlotte for the NRA Annual Meeting. Probably arrive between 5 & 6 if you’re looking for me.

And I picked up one of those Kodak Playsport cameras that Insty has been going on about. So far, I am impressed. Video quality is as good as our larger, more expensive camera and you can stick it in a pocket. I’ll have it with me and may post some interviews and such.

Poll Cat

The Brady Bunch buys the results they want:

In other words, they’ll word the questions and skew the poll to make sure that poll says what you — the client — want it to say

Security Theater

Two 9mm pistols and 300 rounds of ammo make it onto a plane.

Like you and me, only better

Can’t make this stuff up:

Craig Lancaster wanted to prove that Chicago Police officers are treated the same as others when they break the law, Cook County prosecutors said.

So in a drunken argument with a friend last summer, prosecutors said, the 41-year-old veteran officer shot a gun in the air outside an Ashburn bowling alley where he also worked security — and waited.

He was acquitted.

Oh deer

Deer are basically really big rats that happen to taste good. Unless you’re hunting, you don’t really want them on your property. They’re destructive and not good for your plants. But when the cops kill one in Cali, the hippies start complaining.

Drug Raid Goes Viral

Balko:

despite all the anger the raid has inspired, the only thing unusual thing here is that the raid was captured on video

Repeal Don’t Ask Don’t Tell

So says a bunch of milbloggers.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
