The evil gun lobby buying off politicians: Florida’s state lawmakers haven’t gotten a dime from the NRA since 2005

But Russia colluded with the NRA:

This document (also known as a letter) prompted headlines that ranged from The NRA received donations from Russian nationals to NRA discloses additional contributions from Russian donors. All of which probably sounded pretty damning to anyone who didnt read past a headline. Those who did, on the other hand, would soon learn that Russian nationals meant 23 Russian-linked individuals some of them Americans citizens living in Russia who had contributed around $2,300 total, mostly in membership dues, over three years time. Approximately $525 of that sum came from two individuals who made contributions to the NRA.

$525.

Seen on facebook:

Except a long list of people.

R. Lee Ermey has passed away. I met him once at the NRA convention and he seemed like a great guy. I loved his TV shows and, of course, Full Metal Jacket.

Flight diverted after man armed with a pen tries to take a hostage. Soon, these will be assault style pens. I have a couple and they’re great.

Dick’s is going to destroy it’s remaining inventory of “assault style rifles”, whatever those are.

So, I caught part of Mark Zuckerberg’s testimony or whatever at the Senate. That was embarrassing both for the senators and Zuck. For instance, when a senator asked why facebook bought instagram the answer should have been “because I can” or “none of your business”. He acquiesced to many of their bizarre calls for regulation and so forth. And was apologetic in tone. I guess he forgot they work for him.

And the senators clearly had no idea what they were talking about or how facebook worked. And this made me laugh:

Are you a mildly tech-literate politico horrified by the level of ignorance demonstrated by lawmakers gearing up to regulate online technology they don't even begin to grasp? Cool. Now you have a tiny glimpse into a day in the life of a gun owner.

Indeed.

Trump has nominated someone who is anti-gun and anti-free speech. Sad.

One of our byzantine blue laws will go away. Soon, you can buy wine and liquor on Sundays.

Twitter changes gun emoji to water gun.

The mayor of London is now looking at knife control. No, really.

This is pathetic:

Is it more sad that this is policy or that the police seems proud of themselves for taking away a God damned butter-knife?

The future is stupid.

I think the 17th amendment has been the most damaging thing for this country. Go read.

Philly police arrest a 12 year old walking around with an AR-15.

And a school system in the state is giving teachers tiny baseball bats to deal with school shootings.

Apparently, Bloomberg’s cronies are telling banks not to business with the gun business. Bank of America caved.

Well, OK:

S.C. congressman pulled a gun at a meeting about gun laws today, explaining “I’m not going to be a Gabby Giffords”

Sure, the PSH from the Moms Demand crowd is overblown. But, dude, leave the gun where it is unless you need it.

A district judge has ruled the second amendment doesn’t apply to “assault weapons”

Aide to gun controller De Blasio caught with a gun that had been fired. And was missing a serial number.

And some lunatic advocates hanging gun owners.

To deal with mass killings, punish the failures of government.

Well, you know. This time, in Norway.

Good for them:

The Second Amendment Foundation today filed a lawsuit against the Chicago suburb of Deerfield, Illinois seeking an injunction against enforcement of the ban on so-called assault weapons and large capacity magazines adopted by the Village Board of Trustees earlier this week.

Joining SAF in the legal challenge is the Illinois State Rifle Association and a private citizen, Daniel Easterday, who resides in the village and is a gun owner. The lawsuit was filed in the 19th Judicial Circuit Court in Lake County. Plaintiffs are represented by Glen Ellyn attorney David Sigale.

UK to ban the home delivery of knives.

In Cali, they have all of the gun control being pushed by the antis. And it still didn’t stop it. Where does it end?

And the shooter apparently used the “reloading loophole” to get past Cali’s magazine restrictions.

I think he gets the AR-15 wrong but otherwise OK:
