Pocket 380 comparison

Comparing three popular pocket guns. I resoundingly disagree with the ranking. I will not and do not recommend carrying a 1911 style gun in a pocket. And the bodyguard, aside from reported reliability issues, does come with a laser. And that laser must be activated. I’d go with the Ruger. Even better, the Kel-Tec since it will save you a few bucks.

Look on the bright side, some kids are one year living longer

How feel good laws work.

And how much do I deserve?

No doubt, she thinks the .gov should dole out what we plebs deserve:

And yet, he was on the street

Not a criminal. A police officer:

A 14-year-old boy got into a fight at a school bus stop and the school district’s police officer responded by shooting him to death, the boy’s mother says. She says the cop had been reprimanded 16 times in the previous 4 years, suspended without pay 5 times, and “recommended for termination for insubordination,” but the school kept him on the force “without remedial training.”

Wow.

Right to self-defense expanded

In NH, due to legislative override.

At the lieberry

Knox mayor to ban sex offenders from the library. Catching some heat over it. He was on the news this morning talking about it and actually says ‘lieberry’. When asked if he had any evidence of attacks at libraries, he said there had been a few instances. No numbers nor specifics. Also interesting to me from his interview, is that the library searched through its list of library cardholders and came up with two names of registered, violent sex offenders. The library is sending them letters saying not to come back or they are trespassing.

Any such ban will cease once they realize they’ll lose free federal money by banning members of the public. Someone will sue.

Acting at your peril

Why use a Glock 18, machine gun on a TV show? To avoid breaking arbitrary gun laws.

Since everyone keeps asking, I’ve added one of them there fancy, newfangled share on mytwitterfacedin things. See below.

If you’re going to lead a life of crime, you may want a more low-profile appearance.

This picture makes me smile.

Make your own Sriracha sauce

I love cock sauce. Wait, what?

I love the stuff. It’s flavorful and goes with everything from chicken nuggets to pizza. I decided to try my hand at making my own based loosely on this DIY recipe. First, you’ll need a pound of Thai chilies:

From Cock Sauce

Up next, I removed the green ones because, well, Sriracha is red, right? This will come up again later. After, I assembled the ingredients, which are 3 table spoons of minced garlic (forgot to buy fresh), 1/3rd cup of rice wine vinegar, salt to taste, and a couple table spoons of oyster sauce. Adult beverage in a kitty cup optional but recommended:

From Cock Sauce

Next, cut off the stems:

Turn on the stove and add a bit of oil to a sauce pan while you mix the ingredients that aren’t chilies in a bowl:

From Cock Sauce

Add peppers to sauce pan and cook for a minute or two on medium heat then add mixture:

From Cock Sauce

Cook for a few minutes, just enough to make the chilies tender. Allow to cool for a bit. Then put that concoction in a blender and hit frappé:

Place contents into jar or bottle or whatever and allow to sit for about an hour:

Put a lid on it and keep it in the fridge. A few notes:

I took out the green chilies trying to preserve color. That was a waste of time since it turned out orange anyway. No matter, it’s still delicious and better than the store bought kind. Next time, I’ll just include the green ones.

Do all of your cooking and prep with stain resistant kitchen tools (i.e., steel or glass). The peppers will stain.

Do not touch your face while chopping chilies and make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after. And do not go and, uhm, relieve yourself without washing hands first.

My latest time waster

I’ve been having a lot of fun playing Drag Racing Premium from the Amazon Android App Store that my son wanted. It’s a fun little game and the races are short. And you can play on line against other people, competing for best times. I race under the name fightingtrousers, if you’re looking for me.

Science

Bachmann should look into it. The vaccination causes retardation, autism, whatever else is wrong with a child claim has been pretty soundly debunked. I think everyone woke up one day and said Holy crap, we’re really taking child-rearing advice from Jenny McCarthy.

Excellent

A race to the bottom:

The NRA is pushing a sweeping new bill to radically weaken the nation’s gun control regime. Already co-sponsored by 243 members of the House, the legislation would force any state to recognize a concealed weapons permit issued by any other state

And the hippies are frightened.

Outright blame

JOANNA MOLLOY blames the NRA, other states, and gunmakers for a specific death. Then claims:

New York has the best gun laws in the country, but that doesn’t matter, because 92.3% of the thousands of recovered guns used in crimes here were either from outside the state or illegal.

And how are those working out?

Where do you go for gun reviews?

Bob wants to know. Personally, I go with blogs that I trust or message board with posters that I trust. Or I may ask someone. The gun magazines, in a lot of cases, are running ads designed to look like articles. Everything they get is, apparently, awesome.

Only half?

Ex Mayor Daley to lose 1/2 of his bodyguard detail. He’ll only have three full time armed people guarding him. But he doesn’t want you to have guns. Because they don’t make you safe or something.
