Quote of the day

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

Pure brilliance: Gun nuts love to say that if guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns. I actually don’t see why that’s a problem. It would certainly make it a lot easier to determine who the criminals are. If someone is walking around with a gun, and they aren’t a policeman, then they’re a […]

Irony

If the former chief spook in England accuses the Government of exploiting people’s fear of terrorism to restrict civil rights, you may want to look into that.

The American Stereotype

Friday, January 30th, 2009

Image of a man walking the street with a gun and some other object, presumed to be liquor in South Dakota. PSH ensues in England. I can’t tell if it’s a liquor bottle or not but it doesn’t look like one. A quick map search reveals a nearby gun shop. South Dakota ranks 46th in […]

A couple of guys from London had firearms suppressors in the luggage. They get to the US and are arrested: Hope and Latcham were arrested Friday when they returned to RDU to pick up the bag.

Why bother economy

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

In England: A “why bother?” economy has been created in Britain which has left thousands with no motivation to work, a report published today concludes. Successive governments have encouraged a welfare culture that has left every family facing a £1,300 bill because the poor stay poor, it claims. The findings by the public services think […]

Monday, March 17th, 2008

In England: Gun injuries soar as police ‘experts’ blast themselves and colleagues by mistake The number of armed police officers accidentally shooting themselves – and other colleagues – has soared in the past five years. Now, nearly half of all injuries caused by police shootings are the result of officers blasting themselves or a colleague, […]

A Hoax

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

A while back, I asked if England padding streets to make them safe for text messengers was a joke. Turns out, it was a hoax. The sad thing was that it was somewhat believable. I mean, it is England. Via Phelpsy Whelpsy.

Amazing

You should have just let him kill you

Friday, February 22nd, 2008

A would-be robber busts a car window and starts stabbing a shop owner. Shop-owner gets the robbers knife and kills the robber. So far, so good. Except this is England so the shop owner may be charged with murder.

Freedom is just another word…for nothing left to lose

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

England is fast becoming the Orwellian nightmare that George Orwell prayed would never happen. It has now passed France as the one of the worst places for free people to live. In fact France is quickly changing and stepping away from the social democracy of the French past. In England there are cameras everywhere and […]

Confederate Yankee: Looking for Advice On a Carry Gun This Sunday, while the vast majority of my fellow Americans will be preparing to watch the New York Giants get obliterated by the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl (and for the record, I’m pulling for the Giants…sorry Eli, it’s going to be a long […]

It’s a . . . well, whatever you call a Trifecta plus one

Tuesday, January 29th, 2008

A quadfecta? Anyway, now some Brits are upset that Captain America has a gun. It’s all England all the time! Update: from metulj in comments, it’s apparently called a superfecta.

Dominion

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

Over at the Carpet Bagger report, Morbo laments that the NRA continues to hold dominion over Virginia. Morbo incorrectly notes: In Virginia, lawmakers have rejected modest legislation closing a loophole that allows people to buy weapons at gun shows without undergoing a background check. This should be a no-brainer after what happened, but still the […]

You’re kidding

Toy Gun Ban Proposed: Not England, California, or any other foreign country. Try Memphis.

ZOMFG he can lawfully possess a shotgun

Friday, December 21st, 2007

In England, there’s a lot of PSH because a shotgun license was granted to a nine-year-old. This is of note: But in the wake of rising gun violence among youngsters the move has been branded “totally absurd”. Unpossible! With all that gun control, gun violence cannot possibly be on the rise! And do these idiots […]

Big Brother is chicken, cameras can be a cop-out

Monday, October 8th, 2007

It’s time to have a discussion about law enforcement. What is law enforcement exactly? It used to be “feet on the street”. Today it is all about cameras from above and Mayors Against Guns. The pinnacle of the new form of law enforcement is London, England. No guns, no knives, no cops. A shinning Utopia […]

Safer with a gun

Monday, September 10th, 2007

The question: Wouldn’t you feel safer with a gun? No, I would actually be safer. Not much for feelings. Surprisingly, this article comes from England.

Unpossible

Wednesday, September 5th, 2007

Because guns are banned in Japan. Speaking of unpossible, there’s been a fourfold increase in gun related killings and crimes in England. That can’t happen since they passed gun control laws. Even more unpossible is that Britain’s powers-that-be were covering up the gun crime numbers. I wonder why? I mean, it can’t be because the […]

Registering children

Monday, August 27th, 2007

In England: Senior social workers have given warning of the dangers posed by a new government register that will store the details of every child in England from next year.

The horror, the horror

Monday, July 30th, 2007

The Olympics are in London. One of the sports is shooting. In Britain, they’re afraid of guns and pointy things. But they decide to let people practice anyway, though they have to do so with armed police standing around them. This is, apparently, still too lax for some: But anti-gun campaigners reacted furiously to the […]

Robot Revenooers Revisited

Saturday, June 23rd, 2007

So, I’m not happy about Knoxville’s red light cameras for a couple of reasons. Sure, people will say if you don’t break the law, then you have nothing to fear. But, if that’s the case, why stop there? Put them in my house, I might be breaking the law now. So, I got to thinking […]

The banned played on

Monday, April 30th, 2007

I know that people get a bit antsy when there are mass shootings. Then they starting pointing out how England banned this or that after a mass shooting and they haven’t had one since. But no one ever points out that crime with firearms in England has doubled since then.

Gun Control Isn’t Crime Control

Friday, April 27th, 2007

John Stossel: After the 1997 shooting of 16 kids in Dunblane, England, the United Kingdom passed one of the strictest gun-control laws in the world, banning its citizens from owning almost all types of handguns. Britain seemed to get safer by the minute, as 162,000 newly-illegal firearms were forked over to British officials by law-abiding […]

A piece of history

Tough shit, it’s illegal: According to the research, Lewis had plucked the weapon from a pile given up by surrendering Germans and shipped it home. […]

Bans, bans, every where bans

Tuesday, March 6th, 2007

Mr. and Mrs. Chicago, turn them in: Chicago gun owners had until Feb.12, 2007 to remove newly banned firearms from Cook Co. or turn them over to police. There is no grandfather clause to exempt firearms owned before the board expanded its ban to include semi-auto shotguns that have the capacity to hold more than […]
