Nice shooting

In the Spain attack, an officer shot dead four men with machetes.

A federal judge returned fire after someone tried to kill him. A probation officer shot the perp.

It shouldn’t be anymore than writing a check and NICS check

ATF and three manufacturers have worked to modernize the NFA transfer process.

You had me at “No finger grooves”

Here are what are reported to be Glock Generation 5 photos. No finger grooves, ambi slide release, and reversible magazine release are the updates. And those are good ones.

This is a big deal

Trump’s administration has put an end to Operation Choke Point. This was basically a financial dragnet used to harass and ensnare businesses Barack Obama did not like, such as the gun industry.

But of course

Seattle passed their silly tax on gun violence. They claimed the tax would generate 300-500K. Yeah, not so much.

Why are anti-gun activists so violent?

State Rep. Katherine Rogers, D-Concord, allegedly struck Susan Olsen, a gun rights advocate, during a state Senate ballot recount in 2016.

She’s tried to pass bills making it a requirement to have insurance to get a gun.

Endorse

Can’t both sides lose?

I mean, we’re really being told that we have to pick sides between Nazis and Commies.

Start shooting better

I really need to take up Dot Torture. But shooting steel is so much fun.

I’ve kind of hit “peak fuck it” politically

We have a former reality TV host for president. A guy who raps over Metallica licks might soon be a senator. And the next Knoxville mayor may be a former professional wrestler.

Donald Trump says absurd things. And does absurd things. But those things are not as absurd was the media reaction to them. The press is full on hysterical about this guy. Their behavior is irrational and, seemingly, seems to actually help Trump in the polls.

One group of idiots protested another group of idiots. Then both decided to try to out-idiot eachother. One was slightly more successful. One group incited violence and they got it.

The “news” is just a joke. It’s so blatant that their distaste for Trump is influencing the reporting.

You read facebook and every third post is fake news. And I don’t mean like Trump’s labeling things fake news. I mean people posting all sorts of bizarre cures, supplements, click baity headlines that are not true. It’s absurd that people who I thought were otherwise reasonable believe some of the nonsense they post.

And I care about it all less and less each day.

White supremacists can also occupy Wall Street

The Southern Policy Law Center, who is as credible as that guy on the street corner selling you a Rolex for $75, has said the leader of the weekend racist gathering may have been an Occupy Wall Street activist and Obama supporter. That’s funny right there.

More on the FBI comparing NICS checks to a suspected terrorist database

As a follow up to this, Sebastian notes that there’s likely no way to get standing in such a case.

The FBI is comparing NICS checks to a suspected terrorist database

Law policy quotes the FBI:

Since 2004, as part of its background checks for all potential firearms purchasers, the NICS has searched a file containing a list of known or suspected terrorists that is exported by the Terrorist Screening Center from the TSDB into the FBIs National Crime Information Center database.

There’s no law authorizing the action.

More Sig 320 Drop Test Stuff

Over at Omaha Outdoors, Andrew responds to the internet and drop tests more guns:

She’s a goner

The Washington Supreme Court upheld Seattle’s clearly unlawful gun and ammo tax.

All because of indoor plumbing

I concur with the professor: NO-KNOCK RAIDS SHOULD BE BANNED EXCEPT IN CASES OF IMMINENT THREAT TO LIFE

That’s some “study”

The Violence Policy Center has found another media outlet to report one of their bogus studies as news:

I hope he wins

Not likely but this is awesome:

From the top headline at Drudge this afternoon, comes a story about a guy suing the Republican Party for fraud. He donated significant money because they ran on the Repeal Obamacare platform and are now clearly not interested in fulfilling their promise.

Heh.

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