Heard around the house

Hey, Junior, you’re famous on the internet again!

But that’s an old picture. I really need some new ones.

Quote of the day

Lynne Russell:

The discussion over the debate to own a gun is just ridiculous. As Americans we have the right to bear arms and as humans the right to protect ourselves. Im sure that the man who shot my husband did not have a gun permit. Criminals will always have guns. The rest of us legally obtain our gun permits.

If you dont want to carry please dont. Then, shut the f–k up about it. Make your own decisions.

Happy Independence Day

Which, here in The City (My The City), we celebrate by traveling across county lines to buy fireworks that we can’t purchase in our own county. Then we illegally set them off until the police come by and tell us the neighbors are complaining. It’s an annual tradition now for 6 years.

Now matter how cynical you get, you can’t keep up.

Be safe out there and have fun.

What could possibly go wrong?

A new DHS office to “counter violent extremism”. Via Glenn, who thinks this is weaponizing the feds against political opponents.

Train Derailment

Wake up to texts from family asking if I was OK. Turns out, a train derailed about 2.5 miles from the house with some nasty chemical spill. Details here. Local yokels, be careful out there.

Never thought I’d say it . . .

I view AR-15s the same way I view Glocks and M&Ps. They’re just guns. They’re not pretty and don’t require babying. But I went to a new (to me) gun shop in The City (My The City) called Bill’s Outpost and they had some ARs with wooden furniture. They were gorgeous. You can see a color photo here.

Well, of course, they have to lie to appear remotely effectual

I haven’t hated on TSA in a while

Not only will the TSA open your bags and take pictures of the contents to post on twitter, the feds will later steal your money because you must have been up to something.

Chris Christie on guns

Given that he recently announced his aim of running for president, he needs some pro gun bona fides:

Acting on his commitment to ensure a fair application of the states gun laws that respects individual rights to possess firearms and that also protects public safety, Governor Christie today took action to make commonsense changes to New Jerseys gun regulations that ensure victims of domestic violence or violent crime, or those living under a direct or material threat, have their firearms applications processed quickly and without delay.

Has he pulled a Mitt Romney yet and went out and bought a NRA life membership?

Oddly, his announcement seems to have disappeared.

Follow the rules

Or you’ll shoot yourself. Or shoot yourself in the junk.

Colossally dumb idea

Make a phone in your pocket look like a gun!

Throw the book at him

Democrat Leland Yee plead guilty. He was the anti-gun politician who offered to broker the sale of machine guns and rockets.

The AP:

Republican presidential hopeful Rand Paul planned Tuesday to court donors from the new marijuana industry, making the Kentucky senator the first major-party presidential candidate to publicly seek support from the legal weed business.

Paul’s fundraiser at the Cannabis Business Summit – tickets start at $2,700, the maximum donation allowed for the primary contest – comes as the marijuana industry approaches its first presidential campaign as a legal enterprise.

The “Gadget”

Expect an announcement Friday.

What caliber for shark?

Sebastian posits that most people, even gun nuts, do not carry at the beach. And that the Tunisia beach massacre could be a terrorist template used here.

I always have a gun with me at the beach. Because the beach usually has a bunch of drunk people on it and thinks can go tango uniform in that type of scene. I do so by using this maxpedition bag which has a place just for a gun. It’s, obviously, off-body carry. While I don’t like the off body carry, it has its places. I’ve also stored them in the side pocket of a cooler. I tend to make sure I clean the gun when we get back in town due to salt and sand and general beachery.

More hoo-hah carry

Gads:

After a search of the white Pontiac, police did not immediately locate a weapon, but Cook noticed the woman had her hand inside her pants and called Lt. Dawn Westerfield to the scene. Westerfield discovered the barrel of a loaded .38-caliber Colt revolver protruding from the woman’s vagina and removed the handgun, which had three spent rounds, the report states.

Bill: Note that the graph goes up whenever the government tries to make everyone a better person somehow, and falls when they give up
