Racist

Drug free zones (which I guess are as effective as gun free zones) unfairly target blacks and should be banned. Because blacks disproportionately have drugs. Or some thing.

Democrats and guns

By a party line vote, the ban on weapons that look like assault weapons gets out of committee.

Registration and loaners

Chuck Schumer’s bill criminalizes gun loans and creates registration.

Transparency

Biden’s office forces reporter to delete photos. To bad you can’t give photos back, ammo first.

Why do people comply with this stuff?

Great moments in police gun handling

Another NY police officer has his weapon sight on backwards. This has happened before.

Who the hell gives these guys guns with sights on the wrong way?

But, hey, at least it has sights.

And, you know, they didn’t shoot the wrong guy 11 times.

In California

A law abiding gun owner says his guns were taken because his wife voluntarily had a mental health visit.

I would have complied, turning in my ammo first.

The end of cable TV

CBS gets their internet app on.

Dodging the social issue media stick

Rand Paul on gay marriage:

Social issues are another area where he thinks Republicans can make a better argument to independents and centrists without departing from their principles. Gay marriage, for instance, is one issue on which Paul would like to shake up the Republican position. “I’m an old-fashioned traditionalist. I believe in the historic and religious definition of marriage,” he says. “That being said, I’m not for eliminating contracts between adults. I think there are ways to make the tax code more neutral, so it doesn’t mention marriage. Then we don’t have to redefine what marriage is; we just don’t have marriage in the tax code.”

This! I think I like Rand’s chances unless he slips up on one of the social issue freak outs the media is prone to.

Versa Carry Holster. Looks like the fixed the whole exposed trigger thing, which is good. My thoughts on the original design are here.

Couple of shotties. Remingtons that are a hundred years a apart.

How bad is the ammo drought?

Heh

Conspiracy to infringe

Federal law prohibits conspiracy to infringe on the rights of others. So, why not gun laws?

Because you can

But I saw it on the news

NBC says NRA is willing to not oppose the background check bill. NRA says, oh no you just di’int.

Mag limits are BS

Says a a sheriff

But Biden says you can’t own one

Interview with a guy that owns a tank

Gun Culture 2.0

Among gun owners surveyed, 48% said they own them for protection, while 32% said they own a firearm mainly for hunting purposes. That’s a large shift from 1999 when 26% of those surveyed said they owned a gun for protection, while 49% said they used it mainly for hunting, according to an August 1999 poll conducted by ABC News and The Washington Post.

What they say v. what really happened

Econ 101

One of these things is not like the other. If you’re not paying attention.

Is the GOP going to cave on gun rights?

Given the sources, I tend to doubt it but I don’t really consider the GOP’s elite to be friends of gun rights.

But they’re not coming for your guns!

The assault weapons ban is just the beginning!

Well, OK. Since it’s likelihood of passage is about zero.

Mandatory gun ownership

People ask me about this one and I usually just don’t push the issue. But, yeah, the .gov can make you own a gun. Don’t like it but it is the law.

Pull my other one. No, my other, other one.

Mark Kelly says he was so going to turn that AR-15 he bought in to the police. I wonder how the turn in conversation would go:

Kelly: I’m here to turn in this gun?

Officer Friendly: Uh, what?

Kelly: Yeah, I got caught buying this thing that I advocate banning and I need to turn it in. You know, my PR person says so.

Officer Friendly: Was it used in a crime?

Kelly: ONLY THE CRIME THAT PEOPLE CAN BUY THOSE!!!!!ELEVENTYONE

Officer Friendly: Uhm, yeah, we don’t really do that. Have you tried a pawn shop?

Kelly: And put this killing machine back on the street!

Officer Friendly: Hmm (checks price of AR-15s these days), sure, I’ll take it.

OH MY GOD! GUNS HAVE VALUE

Little league raffles off AR-15 to raise money, gives shitty writers excuse to use scare words.

They call it Raw Story because it’s never well done.

But only cops should have guns

Suppressing an AK. Can we make it more ergonomic than a football bat?

Triangular is a fun word to say. Not as fun as waddle. But it’s still fun. Heh. Waddle. It just cracks me up.

Molot Vepr-12

Obsolete caliber! I had an Enfield once. Once! It was a good feeling gun and powerful. But I couldn’t hit a pond with it. No, literally, I could not hit a pond with it because I tried. The sights were so out of alignment it was not possible. I mean, I did hit the pond because I wound up eventually putting a round in the pond just by pointing the barrel. But the sights were right out.

Also, there are more words in this gun porn post just to see if anyone reads them.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
