New tactical reality
Ended with the owner shot and killed and three suspects shot. The owner’s wife is OK.
Well, through it, mostly.
But he came here to push free college for everyone, which is a myth. Because someone has to pay. And he celebrated manufacturing innovations. He pushed education and manufacturing while shutting down a couple of schools and a couple of manufacturers for the day.
As he left, the plane flew over our house. The Mrs. got the kids so they could see Air Force One fly over. Junior looks up and says: “Why are you so excited. We didn’t vote for him”
Good for him for walking a mile and all that:
Educational for him and for me.
I follow a couple of local groups where locals buy, trade, sell guns and gun gear with each other. Always had a good experience whenever I’ve dealt on the boards. But, it seems like every other day someone posts a sale for a Tapco’d out SKS with a crappy scope on it and wants $600 for it. And, because of the rules, I can’t reply with “If you take all that Tapco shit and the horrid scope off of it and put the original stuff back on it, I’ll give you $100”
And, since I can’t do that on those boards, I’m doing it here.
I mean, so is sawing a head off but you can’t go putting bacon in dead terrorists’ mouths. Think of the outrage. And think of the waste of bacon.
Once again, he’s all for it:
Chris Christie’s state police has promulgated new regulations, including tinkering with the definition of “assault firearm” in New Jersey’s law to make it more strict. This means people who own guns that were previously legal in New Jersey are now felons.
Also, check out the 20,000 round and sand test. I wonder if you combine the sand test with the over lubrication test how it’d go? I mean, I read it on the internet.
A ruling that says you can’t let someone use your CNC machine or mill to make a gun. Seems to be targeting 80% lowers:
Held further, a business (including an association or society) may not avoid the manufacturing license, marking, and recordkeeping requirements of the GCA by allowing persons to perform manufacturing processes on blanks or incomplete firearms (including frames or receivers) using machinery, tools, or equipment under its dominion and control where that business controls access to, and use of, such machinery, tools, or equipment.
Only for the first several bullets:
A bill in IN to ban tannerite. Because it makes loud sounds or something.
But sometimes, it has a few gems:
Let me get this straight: the Guardian will post video of a security guard pleading for his life & being shot in the head. But not a cartoon

Speaking about the Paris attack, the president said free speech can't be silenced. Mainly because there's no IRS in France.

Also, I learned you could embed those!

Going after coreligionists of the offenders would make no more sense than bombing the Vatican in response to an IRA attack.
There’s more but that caught my eye. I wouldn’t be surprised if one day we see a group of some other religion decide to get go on revenge killings in response to terror. Eye for eye or some such. I hope not. But humans have, historically, been pretty violent when it comes to a rousing game of “my invisible man in the sky can beat up your invisible man in the sky”.
The force was simply too small (platoon size versus virtual battalion size Taliban force), and they were simply outgunned. It’s remarkable that they didn’t have even more casualties.
Or some things that came across my radar while reading the internet
A response to the general who bashed the M4 from RangerUp.
The Big Lie About Wanat part 1 and part 2.
And an interview with one of the original designers for the AR-15 on what happened to M16s in Vietnam
A bunch of religious zealots decided to kill people in a country where citizens are kept defenseless. They’re killing people over offensive cartoons. That’s like the ultimate childish temper tantrum there.
Despite France’s restrictive gun laws, these fanatics managed to get some Kalashnikovs and a rocket launcher.
And, yes, it can happen here.
If the person filming (warning graphic) this had a rifle instead of a camera, there may be a few less terrorists on the planet.
Renewing the Gunwalker subpoenas. Sadly, this won’t go anywhere. Again. Still. Just like the IRS targeting the political enemies of Democrats.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
