The AP embraces propaganda with its use of “assault weapon” and “assault rifle”. They change it every so often and sometimes it is getting better.

Ok, then. How about background checks to vote, speak freely, or peaceably assemble?

Ranking states by freedom.

Illinois gets more FOID requests this year than ever. Expect a long wait.

Damned if you don’t

Sean crashed a Mayors Against Guns PR event and told them what this new background check bill would actually do.

The media lied about Sandy Hook. Well, yeah. And in the first few hours of the shooting, they got substantially everything wrong. Layers of fact checking!

Rand Paul on the hypocrisy of people with armed guards calling for gun control. A glock is cheaper than a security detail.

Interesting

Turns out those shotguns he’s a fan of firing indiscriminately out the front door are used in a lot more crimes than those evil assault weapons.

Heh: We need to ban all these illegal guns!

Laughable bit on how if it was black people shooting other people, we’d have all this gun control. Well, that is the case in many Democrat controlled cities, you know.

So, people noticed my post on “affordable” healthcare. Apparently, I should enroll in the DON’T GET SICK plan, which is weird because that’s what proponents of the bill told me we had before.

See, all the doom and gloom that people predicted was glossed over because the press and the democrat party (but I repeat myself) said it wasn’t so. But it turns out, it was all true. After all, there was a reason it didn’t kick in until after the election.

But good point. I do that because fuck you.

Update: And I hope Joe knows that’s a joke since he can shoot me from his house.

With gun nuts hoarding bullets, will cops be disarmed?

Seems the cops can’t find ammo either because we’re buying it all. In other news, capitalism.

Reid’s gun control bill is a rehash of other failed gun control bills.

Another member of Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Guns goes to jail:

Mayors Against Illegal Guns member and Democratic Gainesville, Fla., Mayor Craig Lowe was arrested on charges of driving under the influence and property damage after police found him asleep in his car at the scene of a crash last Thursday.

Quite the trend for Mayors Against Illegal Guns.

State attorney releases info on the shooting. It took a while but here’s the release. And here’s the news story. And here’s the pants shitting hysterics version. He got the gun from his mom by shooting her in the face. If only there was a background check before shooting someone in the face. Seems his mom had a gun safe but the shooter managed to get into it because kids have little else to do other than pay attention.

Here’s a summary. He tried to buy guns but could not since he was prohibited so the background check worked there. He fired 155 rounds. No mention of that shotgun that could fit in a glove box and took 70 rounds. I have to get one of those.

He had 9 30 round magazines, 3 were still full.

But let’s pass all these laws that wouldn’t have stopped him.

More! I think it depends, frankly. Enough during the zombie apocalypse relative to enough heading to the local gas station for milk and Doritos are a bit different.

40 agents showed. No arrests and no firearms confiscated. Odd case. What it was about seems to be this:

A person is required to obtain a federal explosives manufacturing license if they intend to engage in the business of manufacturing explosives for sale, distribution or for their own business, Coes said.

The ATF believed that Myers was violating this law.

“The claim is that he was using explosives and getting paid for it via YouTube,” Coes said.

Shot glasses that look like flash hiders. Ok, then.

That’s how you know he’s lying. White House Press Shill says all these unconstitutional gun control proposals aren’t unconstitutional.

Despite his “crazy salad“

No, really. That’s what an Alabama Democrat emailed to a constituent who said he wasn’t a fan of this gun control:

Your folk never used all this sheit to protect my folk from your slave-holding, murdering, adulterous, baby-raping, incestuous, snaggle-toothed, backward-a**ed, inbreed, imported criminal-minded kin folk. You can keep sending me stuff like you have however because it helps me explain to my constituents why they should protect that 2nd amendment thing AFTER we finish stocking up on spare parts, munitions and the like.

I don’t know that English is his first language.
