Yet another in the long-running internet series 'cats with guns' Time once again to check in with America's Responsible Gun Owners to find out how the Second Amendment has been keeping us all safe from government tyranny and rampant crime, though not necessarily from ourselves or people we live with. Hope you can hear the freedom ringing -- or that may be your ears. Use proper protective equipment at the range, will ya?
I was listening to two coworkers discuss the guns they have, the additional ones they want to get, and all the clips to hold more bullets, etc. Holy fucking shit what and obsession! All for something that's more likely to kill them or a loved one than protect them from any real danger.
Something else I've noticed recently that gets mentioned in local news (but hasn't hit the big time yet) are the number of times that schools are getting put into lockdowns because armed individuals are seen or reported in the areas (per the link, it's from a robbery, but that's not always the case). It's actually becoming frequent here. How again exactly are schools supposed to know "good guys" who open carry versus people who are about to cause carnage?
That reminds me. "Hey all you beautiful cat lovers out there! Halloween is fast approaching, so make sure you keep all your warm and furry friends safely indoors for few days before and a couple days after Devil's Night, 'cause there's a whole lotta stoopid going on out there!"
If I wasn't a peaceable sort I might suspect that all these open carry/semi-auto/Gunz is God folks need to be introduced to an Afghan with a tribal Lee Enfield at 500 yards.
The entire article is well worth reading follows the NRA checklist of what to say after accidentally shooting yourself. In this report I noticed the following: the headline is
Accidental shooter in Salina theater knows guns;and then the shooter claims that
Cody Deneault says he's former military, but an accident can happen to anyone and that's what happened to him Friday night at a Salina theater."I think I either bumped the trigger or pushed it the wrong way or something and it went off," Deneault said.
A couple of other points. His name immediately makes me think "red-neck gun humper" and the fact that it was his birthday leads me to suppose that alcohol may have been involved.
G-d. What state, do you happen to remember? Awhile ago, I think in the southern tier of New Hampshire, some ijit from Massachusetts (I think) shot and killed a woman in her back yard while she was hanging up her laundry. "Duh, I thought she was a deer," he remarked intelligently. Of course, it was her own fault, she was wearing white mittens.
I met a guy who hit a (railway) engineers warning detonator by dropping a 6" lump of rail on it. He was the (ha-ha-ha) safety officer responsible for training look-out men in the safe use of such items. The floor was wrecked, there was a hole in the wall and the 6" lump of rail ended 200 yds away.
Jeez, Kansas "former military" dipshit can't figure out the correct way to engage the safety and properly holster his shootin' iron. And this would be one of the "good guys with guns" who stop the "bad guys with guns"? Much more likely that good guy would just start shooting at whatever moved, taking down more good guys, and probably getting shot himself when the police showed up. SMHID
All of my friends are idiots.
Yes, out of their ass, but yes!

Shoot em all and let God sort em out? Seems to be the wingnut response to that one
OT - are you ex-QRH?
Nope. Sorry, completely failed to pass selection!

But if you tasted like chicken, that would be fine, also too.

It's the cats that talk the dogs into it ...
