Local gun control debate

To be held at the University of TN, featuring someone you may know.

SUV causes wreck after trying to outrun Knoxville officers

Background checks

Needed for poison, I suppose.

NRA suing PA counties

For ignoring pre-emption laws

PVC shotgun

Well, that went as expected.

Operation choke point

Well, if the .gov can’t ban guns, they’ll just pressure banks not to do business with gun companies.

Educating media

Our side tried it. And interesting who “journalists” take money from.

Why the CDC still isn’t researching gun violence, despite the ban being lifted two years ago

Because the used to try to politicize it and lost funding because of it.

Magloader

Anyone tried these? My mag loader doesn’t seem into it any more.

Some new suppressors

Didn’t know they made such a thing

Ok, but also, you probably shouldn’t have pointed it at your finger and pulled the trigger

WBKO:

A former Glasgow police officer is suing a Barren County gun store after being handed a loaded gun from under the counter and accidentally shooting his finger off.

According to a civil lawsuit filed Friday, former Glasgow police officer Darrell Smith went into Barren Outdoors back in March and asked to see a .380 caliber handgun.

He then held the gun after receiving it from under the counter. Smith began to examine the gun and then cocked it. The gun was actually loaded and fired, shooting off part of Smith’s index finger.

And, before squeezing the trigger, you probably should have made certain it was unloaded.

So, you like rails?

Here’s a suppressor with picatinny rails on it. Odd. Would the addition of a forward grip make the firearm or the suppressor an AOW? Quick, ask the ATF.

Happy ending

Armed customer stops stops robbery. Convinces others to get carry permit.

Pro tip: Don’t use the wrong caliber ammo

In other news, a 5.56 AR will chamber 300BLK?

New from Magpul, a 60 rounder:

Not helping

Texas is pretty pro-gun and is moving further that way. Keep that in focus and so something productive. Not this..

Drill, baby, drill

Remember when Obama said that was a bumper sticker and not a good policy? He, of course, was wrong. But it is funny to see the mental gymnastics involved in giving him credit for the decline in prices, which happened in spite of his policies.

Another Sandy Hook Lawsuit

This time, parents are suing the school:

The suit claims the school’s lockdown and evacuation plan was practiced, but never implemented on the day of the shooting, which “resulted in the death of 20 students.” The suit also alleges the school failed to train a substitute teacher about the lockdown procedure and didn’t give her a key that would have allowed her to lock the classroom once she heard gunshots being fired on the morning of Dec. 14, 2012.

Things might get wonky

Seems a bunch of Ukranians are trying to hack the website for some reason.

Hi, guys. Tell Putin I said hello.

I suppose it’s a plan. Just a questionable one

In case of school intruder, hurl a can of peas at them:

You’ve likely heard of students bringing canned food to school for food drives, but have you ever heard of bringing a canned food item to school for safety?

A letter sent to parents of students at one school in Chambers County requested just that — students were asked to arm themselves with an eight ounce canned food item.

Though it sounds odd, administrators believe the practice could catch potential intruders off guard, possibly even knocking him or her out until police arrive.

It’s better than nothing. But someone armed would probably be better. But be careful, those cans for weapons may soon violate zero tolerance policies.

But of course

They always have to lie to make a point.

Well, yeah

I’m glad they made the wave a little bigger. The waves on their knives are kind of small and difficult to manipulate for me. I prefer the Spyderco version of the wave.

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