Why are anti-gun activists so violent?

Wanting to send gun owners to fight ISIS.

In Rand Paul news

The good:

Sen. Rand Paul said Thursday he would introduce a bill that would give District of Columbia residents the ability to get gun permits and visitors from around the U.S. the right to carry concealed weapons while in the nation’s capital.

The bad: his odd refugee stance.

The ugly: Polls.

The sound of butthurt

Harry Reid is still mad that the NRA yanked his endorsement.

Databases and liberty

Trump is for keeping those on the terror watch list from buying guns. There are over 400,000 of them supposedly. Carson disagrees:

I am a big supporter of the Second Amendment, and I don’t want to deprive people unnecessarily of that. There needs to be better due process

Good for him. A guy called into the Chris Plante show today and claimed to have a carry permit and that he was on the watch list. How does that even square?

Meanwhile, this nonsense about a Muslim database seems to a big bunch of nothing, perpetuated as news.

Banning knowledge

‘Derp’ is enthusiasm without information.

Ignorance

First, a freak out over a Jeep rack someone thought was a “large assault rifle”, now Minnesota Rep. Kim Norton, on twitter, confuses rear windshield wiper with a rifle.

These people get elected, folks.

Today, in government corruption

The guys behind operation fast and furious will get full retirement.

Lorettay Lynch says Lois Lerner Protected by DOJs Prosecutorial Discretion. Of course. She was only targeting enemies of the administration.

What could possibly go wrong?

Court rules: Private citizens in Tennessee can make traffic stops and arrests for speeding and other traffic violations

Catching a dropped gun

A while back, some smart cracker wrote about never trying to catch a dropped gun. And his editors called it Rule 5. Well, maybe not: What happens when you drop a loaded Taurus?

Guess it depends on the gun.

OK, I laughed

Heh

Shocking

Post Paris attack, gun sales and carry permits surge.

Wasn’t Ted Kennedy on that list?

So, the NY Daily News gets full on hysterical blaming the NRA for not letting a law pass so that people on a terror watch list are prohibited from buying guns. Given the issues with the watch list, that sounds reasonable to most people. The sheer hysteria in the tone of the article is amusing. It means they’re losing, they know it, and they’re trying anything.

Too big to jail

A common theme put forward by a few of the presidential candidates at the last Republican debate was that, gosh darnit, you just couldn’t deport all those people who were breaking the law because it was impractical or impossible. Because there’s so many of them. The numbers tossed out were 3, 9, and 11 million, IIRC.

You see, it’s not possible or practical to enforce the law as it is written, so they should ignore it or let it slide or change the law. I welcome this precedent. How about 3, 9 or 11 million of us stop paying taxes? How about 3, 9 or 11 million of us ignore NFA laws? How about 3, 9 or 11 million of us start smoking marijuana? Or whatever anyone’s pet issue.

In two of three of my examples, I’m guessing the reaction wouldn’t be “gosh, that’s impossible”.

Shooting someone wearing TATP explosive

News you can use:

If you are in a shooting situation where your target is in close proximity to TATP explosives you should either make certain you dont hit the containers or you are prepared to accept the consequences of a detonation.

Practicing head shots will be part of the next range session.

Speaking of PSH

Hillary to receive gun control award

In other news, the Brady Campaign is still around giving awards.

How does a suppressor affect muzzle velocity?

Mostly, not much.

Life in the future

Remember when they started giving every kid a trophy? Those children are in college now.

So, barely is a synonym for completely

Some PSH over at Bloomberg’s fake grassroots effort on bumpfire stocks:

AR-15 Lovers Are Getting Fully Automatic Thrills with Barely Legal Gadgets

Bump fire devices let black rifles fire hundreds of rounds per minute. They’ve become hot accessories for the growing tactical weapons set.

That truly is a dizzying piece.
