A Utah parole officer shot his own leg by accident during a gun exam.

The Salt Lake Tribune reports that the veteran officer was hospitalized Monday after pulling the trigger at Utah’s police academy. No one else was injured.

Keep your finger off the trigger, especially when when holstering.

Out of committee in TN

One made with a paintball gun and questions of its legality, if fitted with a real gun. I don wonder why such a drone would be illegal.

Five gun companies will boycott New York and not sell to the police there. Good.

Also, will Magpul have to leave Colorado?

Says Obama’s gun bills may lead to confiscation. Well, mandatory gun buys are confiscation.

Manchin has once again waffled on the assault weapons ban, this time to the side of the good guys. I bet he reads polls

54% disapprove of Obama’s proposed gun policies.

Heh

65.4 Million Gun Purchases Since Obama Took Office, 91% More Than Bush’s First-Term Total.

Gun salesman of the decade!

You can tell the difference between the outgunned police guns and the guy with the ‘assault weapon’:

Maxim Machine Gun

If you look closely, you can still see some Glock in there

Despite my attempts at reviving my give a damn with bourbon and some Mexican food, I just ain’t got it. I think it’s busted. So, talk amongst yourselves, I’m taking the day off.

To avoid getting ousted from office, TN legislators moving ahead with gun bills.

Well, they can be taught.

Is Illinois about to default to constitutional carry?

He tells the Democrats not to fear losing elections and to push for gun control, citing it’s not 1994. The fact is, you guys misrepresented your position in 1994 and that was found out even to the extent the House voted to repeal the law.

They just isolate them

THE GUN-CONTROL MOVEMENT IS A MOVEMENT OF OLD, WHITE MEN. Well, and a black one.

A support group for people afraid to shoot their ammo.

You know, people have those moments in wherein something truly historical happens and the recall what they were doing. Well, this, wherein a drone strike has been ordered on US soil, will be one. I was watching The Walking Dead.

Nazis from the moon
Many political jabs
It’s so bad, it’s good

Last summer, we took the kids to a pool party. We stayed later than we should have (my fault) and the kids were grumpy and tired from a long day’s swimming and running around. So, on the way back home, the kids were doing what they do in a car when they’re tired and grumpy. Repeatedly saying things like:

Stop touching me!
You’re on my side!
Mom, he’s bothering me!
Dad, are we there yet!

And on and on. I countered with:

Knock it off.
Be quiet.
Don’t make me stop the car.

None of that worked so I told them no more talking. And told them if they said another word, they’d regret it. That lasted about 30 seconds before the next bout of “keep your hands on your side!”. So, I reached down to the kick ass stereo system in the wife’s Ford Earthfucker and cranked it to top volume. And this song was playing:

To make matters worse for the kids and hysterical for me and the wife was that she and I started singing to the top of our lungs. For the rest of the drive, which was only a couple of minutes.

Now, whenever that song comes on anywhere, both kids stick their fingers in their ears and start yelling “LALALALALA”.

Still cracks me up.

LaRue issues a press release:

Effective today, in an effort to see that no legal mistakes are made by LaRue Tactical and/or its employees, we will apply all current State and Local Laws (as applied to civilians) to state and local law enforcement / government agencies. In other words, LaRue Tactical will limit all sales to what law-abiding citizens residing in their districts can purchase or possess.

Good for them. Can we get other gun makers to follow suit? Doubtful but, hey, give Sig, S&W and Glock a call.
