Update: In comments, my dad says:

Not as bad as it seems. The tube is useless, the sight is the actual weapon, the yellow ban indicates it was a training device. Just like finding a piece of brass.

Update: Video here.

Moreover, many mental health professionals have concluded that the official version of 9/11 is false, and that those who believe the official version suffer from emotional problems or defense mechanisms.

A bayonet mount to fight ninjas.

Using the Rodenator that we talked about once.

Any way, I don’t mind so much. The Bush years turned a lot of lefties into gun nuts. In fact, the picture that Mr. Fifth Of November Poser used was prominent on a lot of lefty, pro-gun sites. Looks like the Obama years will get a lot of righties back into the gun rights movement.

And to round out teh st00pid: That gun looks illegal, too.

Really? How can you tell?

Poor cow.

Can’t find video, though. Probably be here soon.

Police say the contents in an oversized purse saved a 22-year-old Middle Tennessee State University student’s life, stopping a bullet during an attempted robbery.

Either way, I’m sure she’s thankful.

Still, it did provide a bit of humor. I mean, it’s an utter shit hole yet this woman, who has no desire to maintain her home, has the sense to iron her clothes. And particularly ironic is that right next to the ironing board is a bottle of Febreze.

The Legislature passed a law (which takes effect today) removing liability from companies offering commercial space flights.

Gun cameras?

“An off-duty police officer went to an outpatient imaging center … to have an MR imaging examination. … The officer was carrying a model 1991 A-1 compact.45 caliber semiautomatic pistol …”

“… the officer apparently misunderstood and took the gun into the MR suite. …”

“Once the officer was inside the MR suite, the gun was pulled from his hand as he attempted to place the gun on top of a cabinet … The gun was immediately pulled into the bore, where it struck the left side and spontaneously discharged … The weapon’s thumb safety was reportedly engaged when the gun discharged.” …

“The gun likely discharged as a result of the effect of the magnetic field on the firing pin block. …” …

If only he’d had one of those plastic Glock 7s from Die Hard 2!

Update: Nomen disagrees here and here.

Sorry, I don’t see it. This is not a pregnant man. This is a pregnant woman who has been surgically and medically altered to appear masculine. You can put whatever bow and wrapping on that you want but it doesn’t change the fact that underneath the hood, the parts are female. Men can not have babies. Note: I think that Nomen is addressing the psychological/sociological aspect of the transgendered and I am talking about what physically is reality.

William Roseburgh told a judge that “Yahweh” was his legal representation and refused any other counsel on Monday — but he has apparently sought attorneys’ assistance before on other criminal charges.

Ok. He’s charged with having an illegal nursery for plants. No, really, that’s a crime.

I don’t know what to say.

Witnesses said a business owner shot and killed himself during a City Council meeting Thursday night after members voted against his request to rezone his property.

Bo Ward, owner of Bo’s Barber Shop, had told the council — which approved first reading of the zone change last month — that his business would go under if the change was not granted.

Following the vote Thursday night, Ward approached the council and said, ” … Ya’ll have put me under, I’m done.”

Ward then shot himself in the head with a small handgun in front of the council and about 50 people attending the meeting.

Over at Progressiveville is a link to WhitesCreek Journal where we learn that the world’s greatest terrorist is not Usama bin Laden but actually Daniel Roling, the CEO of National Coal.

Yep. So says Steve, also known as Whitescreek. He is a middle aged hippie type who really believes coal should be left in the ground because it pollutes the air.

Steve does not say what we should use to generate electricity but I would imagine the usual suspects of solar, wind, and hamsters running on little wheels come to mind.

But wait, there’s more. Steve writes:

Mining coal is about the stupidest thing humans can do. Here we are worrying about climate change caused by atmospheric carbon dioxide, and we’re digging the stuff up out of the ground and burning it straight into our air.

Steve is a pal of Al Gore. Another great comedian.

Behold Albert’s Helmet-Mounted Pistol !

You can’t make this stuff up….

Investigators had not yet discovered the bodies of pro wrestler Chris Benoit, his wife and their 7-year-old son when someone altered Benoit’s Wikipedia entry to mention his wife’s death, authorities said.

Authorities said Thursday they are trying to determine who altered the entry on the collaborative reference site 14 hours before authorities discovered the bodies of the couple and their son.

Benoit’s Wikipedia entry was altered early Monday to say the wrestler had missed a match two days earlier because of his wife’s death.

A Wikipedia official, Cary Bass, said the entry was made by someone using an Internet protocol address registered in Stamford, Conn., where World Wrestling Entertainment is based.
