Homebuilt automatic rifle surrendered in Bogota. But gun bans will work!

In The City (My The City), we have a mayor, like most cities. Unlike most cities, our mayor is Tom Taylor. He has decided to go out and join Mayors Against Guns, an anti-gun group financed my billionaire Michael Bloomberg. He’s perhaps not gotten the memo that the group is misleading, promotes gun control, and that our TN governor had to quit the group so he could run for governor after joining it as mayor of Knoxville. Says hizzoner:

I have a friend who is retired military. He said there is only one place assault rifles should be and that’s on the battlefield

I run into the mayor regularly enough at a local eatery. I’ll be sure and say something to him. Something about how I will actively work and give money at efforts to defeat him should he continue his membership.

And our sister city’s mayor said this:

I think any kind of illegal weapon should be banned.

Uhm, yeah, the already are. That’s what makes them banned.

Here’s the local paper’s bit so you can leave a comment for them.

You can call the mayor at 865-273-3900.

Virginia Tech, Columbine, Aurora, and George Zimmerman.

That’s pretty disgusting.

I have one because I fucking can. You don’t get a say in what I do. And why I want it is none of your God-damned business.

Clear, Sparky?

Shoot yourself in the shower!

95 year old man doesn’t want to have surgery. So, the police break in his house, tase him and nail with bean bags. The man died.

What about “my body, my choice”?

Colorado Springs PD ditches guns with magazine disconnect safeties. And, you know, if you’re a cop, you may someday have to reload while covering someone.

Well, given his feeling toward libertarians, this doesn’t surprise me much.

His lips are moving.

The editor of a paper that published a list of gun owners got fired. Good.

A judge’s order apparently.

All this crime can’t be happening in Knoxville parks since they banned guns there.

Good. Companies like profitable sales.

Cool threads

But we can just ban guns, right?

McKay’s removes their pointless no gun sign. Yay, capitalism. Good for them.

Seems they’re once again setting gun nut rumors ablaze with talk of switching sidearms. There’s a list. And this, I tend to agree with:

“It’s kind of hard to beat the Smith and Wesson M&P right now,” said one industry insider from a competing company, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. “It is a polymer gun with high-capacity steel magazines. It has a positive safety and ambidextrous controls … they simply came out of the gate with the right gun.”

But not quite a Darwin. Some guy driving like an asshat waved his gun at people telling him to slow down. Then shot himself in the jimmies. Heh.

Remember when we talked about stupid things to do with your gun while on the shitter a couple of times? Another reason why that’s stupid:

A loaded .38-caliber pistol was found wedged into the handicapped brace bar in a stall in the men’s restroom at the McDonald’s restaurant on North Charles Seivers Boulevard, according to a Clinton Police Department report.

So, someone had a gun, took a dump and set it in the handicap brace and forgot it. That’s my guess.

The Paper Of Making Up The Record says that criminals don’t obey gun laws. So, we obviously need more gun laws.

I’m kind of surprised to see this endorsement.

But gun magazine sales are up.

Gun control is not socially supported.

An actual girly rifle

If it goes pop, stop.

Because of wildfires.

Fudging the numbers for murder!

Where Great Britain Used To Be only counts murders based on convictions, not a body count of someone obviously murdered.

An anti-gun group I’ve never heard of adds 6.8M people not living in Chicago to Chicago’s per 100K murder rate.

Fire her:

A small, family-owned firearms business in Columbus, Ohio, ran afoul of a rogue U.S. Postal Service worker who decided that she was not going to process their legal shipment of a firearm to an out-of-state buyer.

Why did she refuse to even touch the package? The postal worker claimed, “Because of my religious beliefs, I cannot process your package.”

Shut up! While on this blog I discuss legal issues with reasonable regularity, I am not a lawyer. As my terms of use state, seek your own legal counsel for legal matters. It’s good advice. Of course, my terms of use also state that I love little baby ducks.

Instead of the whopper it is

Kahr arms to leave NY. I wish S&W would leave MA, it’d probably expedite my purchase of an M&P 15.
