Man with a gun at a mall! Police called. Nothing happens.

A non event was non-scheduled for June 5 wherein a bunch of folks would just go about their usual business only while open carrying a gun. And some folks did just that. For Breda, it was a minor event, being asked to cover that heater at Wal-Mart. As for me, I was told to not […]

Last night, I met up to do some shooting with Laughingdog, who was in town on business. And MJM showed up to test out some CrimsonTrace Lasergrips. And ran into Tam by happy accident. After, LD and I went to grab a bite. And we sat at the bar because the restaurant was crowded. LD […]

Guns in cars passes. And nothing happens.

Dissension in the ranks! A black man lawfully carries his AR-15 at a political rally. The press loses its collective shit, tossing it over in the corner with its objectivity. And the reactions from the pro-gun side are varied. I’m on record as saying it’s a poor marketing decision. Some say it’s good. Others say […]

No Heller for you. Come back one day. Or in the Fall. We’ll get around to it. This is like the third time I’ve anxiously watched SCOTUSBlog and, after a tense build up, nothing happened. It’s like dating. Update: The Chief Justice has announced from the courtroom that the Court will issue all of its […]

Gets ice cream. Nothing happens.

What’s gonna happen in Parker v. DC? The Supreme Court will not take the case The Supreme Court will and will rule that the second amendment means what it says and we all go buy machine guns The Supreme Court will and will rule there is an individual right but reasonable restrictions are OK but […]

As a formal exercise in film-making, this movie is interesting, but it takes tremendous liberties with the event it references (the Columbine school shootings) and adds many new elements of the director’s devising. It’s dishonest and disingenuous.

Jed notes the media, attempting to drum up ratings or fear, has exposed that an 80 year-old farmer can buy (gasp!) farm supplies. Shocking that those who need things to provide for their livelihood can, you know, get them. Jed’s right. It’s not news. Nothing happened.

Daley urges Bush to push for the ban: Mayor Daley urged President Bush on Wednesday to put political muscle behind his campaign rhetoric and pressure Congress to extend the federal ban on “murderous” assault weapons before it expires next week. With gun manufacturers already marketing military-style firearms and poised to sell them at midnight Monday, […]

Another case of concealed carry law going into effect and, well, nothing happens. No blood in the streets, no wild west gun fights. In fact, the number of people applying for them was actually half of what was predicted.

In Maryville, nothing happened.

There is a supposed “smart holster” and its designers won $1M for the design. Yeah, voice commands and RFID will work 100% of the time, even in stressful situations. NYPD officials presided in the judging. Make them carry one of these blocks of fail. Via Sebastian, who notes: But that holster is dangerous. Because the […]

Richard Mann on the trend among newer serious shooters to poo poo Jeff Cooper: Heres the other thing, and Im paraphrasing Robbie Barrkman (ROBAR) here, just about everything related to handguns today, can directly be traced to Jeff Cooper. Cooper started the defensive handgun movement that continues today, and his 1972 book, The Principles of […]

A topic I’ve touched on here a few times over the years is the government, generally, making our lives worse via bureaucratic fiat from people who are not accountable to anyone. For instance, your toilet sucks. My brand new, top of the line dishwasher takes two hours and nineteen minutes to do a load of […]

From Tam: Once the cops have been called, you don’t need to be running around outside with a gun in your hand. Read it all. One time, I had put alarms in some houses after a spate of copper thefts. An alarm went of at OMG thirty and the police were notified, as was I. […]

And, still, nothing has happened: The IRS Scandal, Day 600

People said there would violence and murder and blood in the streets if we allowed guns in parks. Three years later, an amazing thing happened: nothing.

One of the things my close friends will tell you is that my life often enough has a very surreal quality to it. Weird shit just happens to me. I can’t explain it. This is one such tale. Last weekend, me and the family went for a walk in the neighborhood with the dog. A […]

And it didn’t go as expected So, I came home expecting the find the family there. They weren’t. I also expected my backdoor to be shut. It wasn’t. Needless to say, this had me concerned. A quick look around and I noticed nothing really out of place but something wasn’t right. I drew my gun […]

Finds that nothing really happened and nothing about the law is bad. Gun controllers upset, want more funds to support their version of reality.

Happening soon. Pelosi says Democrats will walk out. Remember, NRA is scoring this vote you guys in pro-gun districts. And what will happen if he’s held in contempt? I’m betting nothing.

This past Saturday was my birthday and you didn’t get me anything. I was fine with the fact that I was turning 40. I reasoned that, the day before, I was 39 and nothing was going to happen in a day to make me feel old. It was just a number change, my next doctor […]

Open carry and not much happens. And I didn’t know you were supposed to use the wet end.

Nothing will happen

Angel gets her wings. Excellent work, Breda. Nancy R, OC Ambassador: That’s a conversation that never would have happened if I’d been carrying concealed. We’re winning — one at a time. Babes with Bullets and other women who believe the Constitution applies in Illinois

With the retirement age set shortly after college and free healthcare, the little utopia was chugging along nicely. Then, the bill came due. And instead of paying and budgeting better, they borrowed more money to pay the bills and kept chugging along, unaware that the bill would come due again and, apparently, of the realities […]

Soon, nothing will happen. Just like in all the other states with similar laws.

David has some insight. To this day, I don’t think we’ve even gotten the same answer twice as to why the raid happened or why they felt the need to get all Ninja on him. First, we was supposedly part of a group of burglars. Now, it’s drug trafficking, with small amounts of drugs found […]
