So, moms demand something or another said Trader Joe’s banned guns at their stores. Turns out, they just banned open carry in Texas. Of course, they still want us to know they don’t like guns very much:
To be clear, we do not welcome weapons of any kind in our stores and never have. While there are laws in place allowing for openly carrying firearms, we would very much prefer that customers not bring guns into our stores.
Carbine 2016. I have the Burris M-Tac on one of my 6920s and can’t say enough nice things about it.
States with the most carry permits per population: Alabama, South Dakota, Indiana, Pennsylvania and Tennessee.
I too would vote for Cruz just because of the supreme court picks.
Yes, they’re loud:
Bernie Sanders, The Bum Who Wants Your Money. Basically, a slob who never had a job until he was 40 and it was a government job. The only thing I wonder is, if that was the case, how did he get elected as mayor?
Of course, given that his list of congressional accomplishments consist of naming post offices after people, it wouldn’t surprise me.
A bill to allow people to keep guns in their car has cleared a committee. Your car is an awful long way to go to get a gun when you need it. And, since you’re at your car, you should probably just leave.
I was perusing the bookface the other day and saw where Sean had mentioned the KeySmart. I’m a key simpleton. For years, my key ring consisted of a car key, office key, P-38, and a handcuff key*. Now, by virtue of locking stuff up on job sites, I have to carry more keys out of necessity. And this thing works to give the key ring a minimalist feel:
And the keys come come out similar to a Swiss Army Knife, I got the red for that reason:
I even got the handcuff key in there, it fits fine with the included spacers. You can get a red one here.
* People say to me Hey, Uncle, why do carry a handcuff key?
To get people out of handcuffs, of course. And when you own a set of them and have small kids who like to handcuff each other to stuff, that happens more often than you’d think.
In the second report, the inspector general concludes that while the ATF and Justice Department have implemented most of the recommendations the Inspector General made in 2012 to correct the serious management flaws he found at the ATF, the same cannot be said for the other law enforcement agencies within the Justice Department: the FBI, the U.S. Marshalls Service (USMS), and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). The inspector general made clear that his prior recommendations were intended not just to strengthen oversight of ATF, but to ensure that the mistakes that were made by ATF and the Department of Justice were not repeated at the other law enforcement divisions of DOJ.
I’ve mentioned before that if you know anyone who doesn’t mind government regulation, have them go buy a gas can. Well, someone else is talking about it too:
so I had to get a can of gas from the local car shop. I started to pour it in. But, hmmm, this is strange. The nozzle doesnt quite go in. I tilted it up and tried to jam it in.
I waited. Then I noticed gas pouring all down the side of the car. So I pulled it out and experimented by pouring it on the ground. There was some weird contraption on the outside and it wasnt clear how it worked.
I poured more and more on the ground. Some got on my shoe. Some got on my hands. Some got on my suit.
Gas was everywhere really everywhere but in the tank. It was a gassy mess. If someone had lit a match, I would have been a goner.
Yeah, I’ve only ever spilled it in the driveway or in grass. You can, of course, unfuck your gas can. Or buy the military style cans, they sell them at Amazon.
Anti-gun former governor Eliot Spitzer accused of assaulting a woman.
You can host a group that advocates threatening law-abiding citizens. But you can’t host a group that sells lawful products.
A look at filling Scalia’s seat:
The Senate has to hold firm, because the very existence of the Second Amendment as any kind of meaningful right is at stake.
Yes. The two landmark gun cases were 5-4.
And I’ve seen conspiracy theories regarding his death on the internet. Ugh. Srsly?
A comedian has been charged with weapons possession for using an Airsoft prop on a movie set.
Because of Tam, I snagged up one of these magazine storage cases. It’s handy. Keeps them secure and you can attach it to MOLLE stuff:
The magazines with the Taylor Freelance extensions don’t quite fit. And, I discovered that, somehow, I’d manage to pick up a Pro-Mag magazine. When I bought it from Amazon, amazon said I might also like this magazine can for AR mags. I liked it so well, I got a second:
You can shoehorn 20 mags in each one.
With added “journalism”
Actual headline: Gun nut charged after cops find distrubing arsenal near school
As to how it happened:
Police were able to stumble upon the stockpile after officers conducted an administrative pistol licensee review at Shous apartment on Monday, prosecutors said.
All of his weapons were “licensed”. Lot of good that did. Of course, it’s NY.
You may recall that during the TVA fair, the city banned guns at Chilhowee Park, despite a state law that bans cities from banning guns in parks. The city said that Chilhowee Park was not a park, even though park is right there in the name and it’s actually, you know, a fucking park. Well, someone you may know is suing them.
But of course: Committee delays action on gun bills
I’m guessing Overbey being against gun rights again.
And Haslam doesn’t like the idea of guns in the legislative plaza:
But Gov. Bill Haslams administration is raising concerns about the proposed change. The Republican governor said in an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday that he wants to keep the gun ban within the state Capitol building, which is connected to the Legislative Plaza via an underground tunnel.
We dont think that people should be able to bring weapons in here, Haslam said. This is a secure building. Weve got metal detectors; weve got troopers with guns.
Haslam said it would create a logistical problem of how visitors to the legislative office complex would be rescreened upon entering the Capitol building.
The guy who said he was fired after using his gun in defense of others has gotten his job back:
An employee at a Michigan General Motors Technical Center said he was fired after he pulled a gun to stop a knife attack at the plant on Wednesday, but his bosses eventually reversed their decision and let him return to work.
Didarul Sarder, a 32-year-old valet service supervisor, “now has his job back,” Warren Mayor Jim Fouts said in a Facebook post.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
