You know, the band is OK but the name Five Finger Death Punch is one of the greatest band names ever. Seriously, it ranks up there with Kathleen Turner Overdrive.

NRA gets a lot of grief because the R doesn’t stand for Republican. But they’re grading system is at least understood. Unlike GOA’s, who knock someone down four letter grades in a year.

And the burden of proof.

Mentioned the Tactilite 50 showed up the other day. Here’s a pic:

Looks pretty cool. And my droid can be the remote.

I dunno. I don’t think I would carry a cocked and locked 1911 in my pocket. And if I don’t carry it cocked and locked, then why carry a 1911?

You know, people tell me all the time that Islam is trying to take over western culture. And, you know, I usually have a laugh about it and don’t pay it much mind. But then I see a Muslim policeman doesn’t have to protect Jews and that a school district, despite a wall of separation, is set to observe Muslim holidays and I start to wonder.

When covered by the press: But it’s awfully clever to drop in that “who respond with lethal force to routine encounters with the law” along the way, and to follow it with “for example” when you don’t have any.

A colossal case of teh stoopid:

The license tax is equal to one-half percent of gross receipts from sales to consumers in the city. The state does not allow telephone companies to pass the tax on to consumers, Stromberg said.

Uh uh. I’m sure the phone company just takes a hit on its revenue. Idiot.

Slicing their cheeks open so they they can put stuff through them. With pics, so careful.

Went to Coal Creek Armory to pick up the Zel Custom 50 caliber. Interesting chatter ensued as Gun Smith Bob and JP tried to figure out exactly what the hell it was. And how it worked.

For those that don’t know, Zel Custom makes a bolt-action 50 caliber upper for your AR-15. Interesting conversation also ensued, since they sent me the upper and lower, watching the guys figure out the paperwork. After all, is the gun a bolt action (upper) or semi-auto (lower)? And is it .50 caliber since that’s what the upper shoots? Or a 5.56 since that’s what the lower says?

Aren’t gun laws grand?

At a Tea Party event? I can understand not wanting someone to strap on their AR-15 and walk around. But prohibiting lawful concealed carry doesn’t sound very, err, Tea Partyish.

Wisconsin Radio Network:

Another lawsuit from an open carry advocacy group. Wisconsin Carry, Incorporated, which recently filed a Federal lawsuit against the City of Madison and Madison Police Chief Noble Wray in connection with an incident involving five of its members exercising their open-carry rights at a Culvers restaurant, has also filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of a woman who brought her gun into a Brookfield church in July.

In that incident, a churchgoer’s call to the police department’s non-emergency number to inquire about the legality of open carry ended with officers drawing their weapons on the woman in the church parking lot, searching her and her car, and issuing a citation for illegally transporting a firearm. The lawsuit claims that’s not an arrestable offense in Wisconsin.

The Holster Site shows off their custom carry purse.

The NRA has given Bill Haslam a B- and unnamed Democrat a C-. NRA is not endorsing either candidate.

A contest

A reader emails:

I am one of your loyal readers and I was blown away when I went to the local branch of my credit union; they installed a “Weapons Control System”! I was completely and utterly shocked! I wrote the CEO of the Credit Union a letter stating my dissatisfaction with the installment of the system, but I don’t think an article for your readers about this kind of thing would hurt. I took pictures of the sign and the “weapons control system” in hopes that I could share it with my favorite blogs and they could show readers what is happening across our great country.

Update: More here.

Looks like NRA took on the citibank issue a bit back. Only we didn’t know about it, since they didn’t put anything out about it. Which is kinda strange.

David Hardy has an interesting observation.

Jerry Brown gets the NOW endorsement right after calling opponent a whore.

Bryan Miller is kinda going insane.
