The problem with revolver fanatics

Andrew with some truth:

I would urge anyone who still believes, in the 21st century, that revolvers are superior to automatics as defensive or fighting handguns to strongly consider the facts about revolvers and the state of automatic pistols today. Also, you’re insane.

If you like revolvers, shoot revolvers. But the argument that they’re better than bottom feeders is silly.

Eight Years

I’m not sure exactly where the time went but today my daughter (who I’ve always called Junior on the blog) is 8. Here’s a pic of her from the local fair sporting her recently won pimp hat and blow up AR-15:

Happy Birthday, Sparky.

Cutting waste

My rep. says the Air Marshall program is useless and needless: more air marshals had been arrested than had been arrests made by air marshals, and that they were spending approximately $200 million per arrest each year

He’s right.

He should

Totems to keep away evil spirits

They may work for evil spirits, which are made up. But for real things, totems fail.

The best show currently on American TV isn’t on TV and isn’t American

I’ve caught the first couple of episodes of Lilyhammer. It’s good. Sure, there’s some Americans involved in the production of it but the credits feature a lot of names with the letter Ø. And it was produced by Netflix as their first show. Not sure how they’d make money doing that/

It’s funny to me that the guy has many issues with near socialist government bureaucrats and complains about it. And he’s supposed to be from New York. The social interactions are amusing too. Highly recommended.

And it’s only on NetFlix.

But the weapon was licensed and registered

Journalism and duty to retreat

David Hardy looks at some cases covered in the press that shows their utter lack of understanding of the law. They don’t need to understand it’s about sensationalism. And they’ll even lie for the latter, as has been proven many times.

And then, you have guys like this who fall for the media lies about duty to retreat/stand your ground and wind up killing someone.

The FBI sends ten agents to gun shop frequented by George Zimmerman to ask the owner about how racist the Zimmerman is. Says the shop owner: Didn’t the guy have a Sunday school in his house for minority kids?

Food Fight: Pedantic edition

One of the things that cracks me up in it’s sheer pointlessness is how devotees of certain food types get upset if someone else makes a similar dish and calls it the same thing. The classic is how chili doesn’t have beans in Texas but in 49 other states it does. So, those 49 states are clearly wrong. Or if you don’t boil it, it’s not a bagel! And here in the south, all soft drinks are cokes. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Coca Cola product or Pepsi. It’s still a coke.

Now, PawPaw is upset that I referred to some Cajun boiled peanuts. Having just got back from South Carolina, let me tell you Cajun boiled peanuts are everywhere. In this case, I don’t think Cajun refers to the group or ethnicity that came up with the food. But the style of spices that go in the pot. For instance, when I get in a Korean barbecue mode and, for an appetizer, toss some cucumbers on the grill before the meat, they’re not Korean barbecued cucumbers in that I think Koreans actually made them. But they are in the style I used to cook them.

But we can all agree this is not chili.

And that should be the end of it. However, here’s a case where someone is arguing that someone did not do enough to secure a gun that was later used in a shooting.
