He’s always an idiot

But this time he’s an idiot about something I care about:

Ed Schultz: Gun violence is worse in Chicago because they don’t have any gun laws

I guess not having a complete ban means no gun laws?

Consider the source

Ok, then: Thomas Nee, key member of Joe Biden’s “gun violence commission,” has a son who was convicted of plotting a Columbine-style mass murder at a school — possibly with a service weapon obtained from his father.

Really, we have to have this conversation?

Sign of the times that Sheriff Jim Wilson has to tell you how not to get your dog shot by the police. It’s really come to this. The one flaw in his advice is that most of the stories of police shooting dogs involve dogs that are in their own homes, being dogs.

I think I’d put the magazines on the other crutch

Tactical crutch!

Need has nothing to do with it

As a rule, I don’t engage in this “why do you need a X argument?” but, if that’s your thing, here’s one take.

Why are anti-gun activists so violent?

Marine Who Penned Scathing Letter to Sen. Feinstein Now Says He’s Getting Death Threats

Some dude says that gun owners should have their kids kidnapped.

General McChrystal Doesn’t Know Dick About Guns

He says the .223 is too powerful for civilians:

It’s like ATF paperwork

Warrant invalidated due to typo

Who’s buying guns?

A whole lot of Democrats. You guys should talk to your party leadership.

They only know the one song

New gun control group started after new high profile victim.

Another gun owner map

In Texas

News you already knew

Gun sales and NICS checks at a record high in the state.

No

If the gun is designed to fire 15 rounds, it’s not high capacity. It’s standard.

David Gregory

Still not arrested. I wonder what the police reaction would be if people marched in Washington with AR magazines in their hands? I bet there’d be arrests at the Million Magazine March.

Journal News Employees

A map to their houses. Sauce for the goose and all.

Gun Porn

No blog for you

because Roll Tide. Notre Dame gave us Regis Philbin and Phil Donahue. That’s just inexcusable.

What?

Liberty and such:

Keith Ratliff, the manager of FPS Russia, the 3rd most popular youtube channel was found dead yesterday, tied up to a chair and shot in the back of the head.

Details of the Sandy Hook shooting

A report says he wore earplugs and changed magazines several times. Also:

a shotgun, capable of firing 20 rounds,

Hmm. Not sure what that means. The article also places emphasis on violent video games.

The assault on rifles

Can’t let the bodies cool: White House Plans To Overwhelm NRA With Rapid Victory

I don’t really see that happening. The WaPo on the measures:

A working group led by Vice President Biden is seriously considering measures backed by key law enforcement leaders that would require universal background checks for firearm buyers, track the movement and sale of weapons through a national database, strengthen mental health checks, and stiffen penalties for carrying guns near schools or giving them to minors, the sources said.

So a registration scheme and making something illegaler? That will save us!

Sebastian wonders what they’re planning: The anti-gun strategy is to throw everything at the wall, and see what can stick.

Gun bill to be introduced

NRA says Feinstein’s bill is to be introduced on the 22nd

Sloppy reporting

A piece on states subsidizing gun makers says:

Taxpayers across the country are subsidizing the manufacturers of assault rifles used in multiple mass killings, including the massacre of 20 children and six adults at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. last month.

Yes, you taxpayers paid for those guns that killed people!

Fiscal cliff

The bill left lots of room for pork.

Hey, I’m a corporation too!

Heh:

When Jonathan Frieman of San Rafael, Calif., was pulled over for driving alone in the carpool lane, he argued to the officer that, actually, he did have a passenger.

He waved his corporation papers at the officer, he told NBCBayArea.com, saying that corporations are people under California law.

Polls and support

No groundswell of support for gun control

But polls support armed guards in schools

Also, the loaded, biased question isn’t getting the support.

Good

Senator Manchin reconsidered: I’m not supporting a ban on anything. I’m supporting a conversation on everything

What life is like when you’re not David Gregory

Man drops his family off in DC for touristy stuff. Gets arrested for having standard capacity magazines. He was later found not guilty.

Meanwhile, David Gregory has still not been arrested.

Speaking of need

Why would you need more than some arbitrary number of rounds?

The fallacy of need

This.

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