The crap that passes for jernl,ism around here is atrocious.
There is so much wrong with the video, as far as nomenclature is concerned, that my head hurts. Seriously? Permits? Even the Sheriff incorrectly identifies the licences as permits.
Oh, and whoever wrote the article really should get a dictionary. I'm quite sure they meant to write 'moral terpitude' and not what they really wrote ...
Umm, i got nothin' ... didn't waste my time watchin' two fools talk about things they can't change, since it really isn't their job to begin with, and constantly interrupt each other. Anyone that thought this would be any different than any other debate needs to see me about some prime swampland that is for sale.
*Caveat ~ It's from The Christian science Monitor so ...
It's several months old, and some of the questions don't even make sense, therefore the answers are wrong. Evidently Mr. Richey understands very little about US v. Miller.
Seriously, when it comes to the lame stream media, is there any other kind? This article is a mis-titled, loosely fact based (very loosely) hit piece. Not only that, what they did was probably illegal as hell.
Internet sales go through an FFL, this 'sting' was simply private sales. Yep, the same 'ole tripe carted out to ban gun shows. Heh, kinda like buying from the classified ads in the local dead tree publication there Sherlock ...
● "police-grade pistol" = normal pistols that people carry everyday
● "semi automatic assault rifle" = normal rifle (it can't be both semiautomatic and assault)
● "meet ’em in a parking lot, and buy a freaking AK-47" = if true (highly unlikely) that one IS an assault rifle. Hmm ... buying unregistered machines guns gets you time in the GrayBar hotel.
● "tactical assault rifle modified to use bullets for an AK-47" = FAIL on two counts ... This had me ROFLMAO! These genious's bought a Simonov, the precursor to the Kalashnikov. Neither assault rifle nor modified, and of course it fires the same round. This statement wins the internetz !1!1!
● "Glock-23 with hollow-point bullets, made to inflict serious internal damage" = Oh, ya mean them Black Talon copkiller boolitz? I carry 'em, cops carry 'em. You should too!
In all seriousness tho', this story is so over the top even the most hardcore hoplophobes probably got a chuckle from it ...
The Canton Repository (aka - the suppository) has announced that Daniel "Rage Boy" Harless has been fired. Of course the Union Rep., Bill Adams, goes to mamby-pamby land with his defense of Harless's 'condition' ...
Twice!! Doing some 'catch-up' reading this weekend, because of the rain, two stories caught my eye. The second article came via my RSS feed reader. The first one is from a facebook post. Well, not quite ... it is a result of surfing, after watching the vid posted.
How can any responsible adult set up a situation that doesn't teach a newer shooter anything but fear? Obviously the operative wording in that question is "responsible adult". By now you know the all to familiar story of getting a young lady unfamiliar with firearms, to shoot something she has no business handling without proper coaching. And making a video of it. Then posting it ... on Military.com no less. These videos piss me off to no end !
As you can plainly see ... this was a setup for disaster.
The second outrage comes from Zero Ponsdorf @ This Ain't Hell: His post is a synopsis of the story he links to in Stars and Stripes. It will make your blood boil. You have been warned!
of a misinformed jackass repeating incorrect information in an op-ed piece. There is so much wrong with Jeff Wagner's story it makes my head hurt. It's no wonder people call him a liberal.
In his story entitled 'Ready, Aim, Fire!' he seems to know about half of the facts, on half of the subjects and as you'd suspect ... gets it all 100% wrong. It almost seems like a comedy at times.
