Seems the man who videotaped the situation in which he wound up killing someone and was convicted for it bought the propaganda from the press and the anti-gunners (but I repeat myself).

In North Carolina, 60 people who are not felons went to prison for being felons in possession.
Federal law makes you a prohibited person, felon or no, if you were convicted of something that can land you more than one year in jail.
A concealed carry course is being offered in the only state that doesn’t have some form of handgun carry.
Artist makes zip guns and sells them to the police in gun buyback programs for $300. Heh.
Speaking of zip guns, Steve has some cool pics of artsy zip guns.
I think my favorite part here is when the woman starts kicking the would-be robber in the head.
In Knoxville, there’s an election and a local legal hot shot, Shelley Breeding, was running for the seat in district 89. Seems that despite:
The state not knowing where the Anderson/Knox border is
Her mail goes to a Knox county address
Her address and deed are in Knox county
Her car is registered in Knox county
And she is registered to vote in Knox county
A court ruled she is not a resident of Knox county and cannot run for that office. This ensures that, basically, the Republicans will have no opposition. I’ve met Shelly before through a mutual acquaintance and she was referred to me once for a legal matter. She’s bright and capable.
I hope she appeals. Anyone know how to contribute to her cause? It’d mark the first time I donated to a Democrat.
Via Late For Dinner.
Yeah, that’s right. It’s my blog and I can have two.
Bill: Why is Chicago more dangerous than Mogadishu? Because they have better gun control.
Tam: I mean, you can order bottled water from the internet, but you can’t get books out of your faucet.
Crisis stage: When a Demo is in the White House, WaPo is the White House’s PR agency, so I read this as indicating the White House has decided that he’s a lost cause.
An M&P22. If it had an M&P trigger, I’d like one. Anyone familiar with the trigger?
Didn’t make Top Shot? Upset that it got canceled? Or maybe didn’t. Or maybe did. No one knows. Well, Texas Triggers has you covered:
I wonder if they’ll have drama there too?
I’ve noticed that with my Amazon Prime’s free shipping, they’ll often give you a choice for no rush shipping. And in exchange, will give you some credit toward MP3 songs at their MP3 store or some credit toward video. So, if I order something that I’m not in a hurry for, I get Tom’s Diner and Bleed free!
Sean obtained copies of her emails and it’s clear that Mayors Against Guns is calling the shots.
Gene and the guys at the Calguns Foundation are awesome. In a piece on microstamping, the Paper of making up the Record points out:
In California, legislation signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2007 has been held up while the attorney general’s office makes sure the technology is unencumbered by patents, as the microstamping law requires. A gun rights group, the Calguns Foundation, went so far as to pay a $555 fee to extend a lapsing patent held by the developer to further delay the law from taking effect.
“It was a lot cheaper to keep the patent in force than to litigate over the issues,” said Gene Hoffman, the chairman of the foundation, adding that he believed the law amounted to a gun ban in California.
Also, it struck me that I read these articles and I actually know and have met the people mentioned. Two, in that article.
Sandia’s researchers, though, have plumped for an old-style smoothbore barrel. That is because, instead of spin, their bullet is stabilised by four steerable fins at its rear. Those fins are linked to a computer chip that is, in turn, linked to an optical sensor on the bullet’s nose. A laser is shone at the intended target, the bullet is fired, and the chip uses the fins to adjust the bullet’s trajectory in mid-flight, a system similar in principle to the one used on anti-aircraft missiles.
PSH over some guns taken in the raid of a pain clinic. On the list of charges, I don’t see any gun crimes. What media bias?
Man open carrying robbed of his gun:
Investigators believe a man armed with a silver and black handgun entered the business and robbed the security guard of his loaded 9mm handgun, three loaded magazines, handcuffs, pepper spray and collapsible baton.
And in Nashville, someone robs someone and gets their gun. Then winds up shooting himself in the ass. Too bad his brains are only there figuratively.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
