What? Hold Sheriff Baca's people to the normal standard?
Why, we can't do that!
According to this, they think the meteor that blasted over Russia weighed about 7,000 tons, and blew somewhere between 18-32 miles up. And did that.
Imagine the same thing with a different angle going off about 5-10 miles up...
Another Only One who thinks the 2nd Amendment refers to a 'belief' that we're allowed arms... bastard.
Speaking of Only Ones, Elson Morales, Joseph Lawlor and Clive Higgins, all 10-year veterans of the Bridgeport Police Department, should all be fired. And prosecuted. There is NO DAMNED EXCUSE for this kind of crap.
And how's that gun ban working in (fG)Britain? Not too well:
Mr Rasul came to Britain in 2003 when the Kurds were being persecuted in their native Iraq.
'I thought it would be safe here, but it isn't, it's very dangerous with crime always going on and lots of bad people around,' he said.
'It's more dangerous here than Iraq because at least there, you knew who your enemies are.'

In which I annoy hell out of the birdwatchers again
A couple of years back I put up a post about lions with bad table manners; that, and the others associated, got me more nasty and hate-mail than anything else I've ever written. Well, the other day I was browsing through Capstick's Maneaters and ran across the section in question. So I thought I'd stir the pot back up.
The section is about the death of Joy Adamson, and what happened to the story after the initial reports. What follows is copied from Capstick's book, chapter on lions(pages 32-34 in the hardback):
...My argument with the attitude of people such as the late Mrs. Adamson lies in the unrealistic sentimentalism which has lead tens of thousands of otherwise unexposed people to believe that lions, if not all the great carnivora are, in reality, poor tabbies starved for the godlike gift of human affection. Would it were so, yet I cannot but believe that, indirectly of course, every kid who has his face torn off by an irate black bear in some American park or each damnfool who has seen BORN FREE and is mauled by a lion who doesn't purr on cue or appreciate the human concept of affection is at least to some degree the fault of Mrs Adamson or Mr. Disney.
I first heard of the death of Joy Adamson from the wire serviced through the Miami Herald of January 5, 1980, which, in part, reported the following:
My, my! Guess what happened? Seems that all those tracker teams spooring up the lion that killed Mrs. Adamson must have been mistaken. Apparently, the mention of a buffalo was all wrong, too! From an apparently confirmed story of death by lion, the "official" verdict was now that Mrs. Adamson had been murdered by a human since some of her belongings were missing.
You may have noticed that you never heard much more- if anything- about the matter. That, in itself, is as weird to me as the abrupt change of cause of death. I wasn't there and accuse nobody of knuckling under to any big money preservationist sentiment-venders simply because it would have raise a few donor eyebrows for the author of BORN FREE, FOREVER FREE, LIVING FREE and the rest of the stuff to have been killed by a lion. heavens no! I guess the murder of a famous authoress in the midst of the African bush just wasn't interesting enough for the press to pursue. Don't you think?
I wound up being called about every kind of animal-hater, liar, murderer of cuteness and whatever else you can think of over that original post. Including "You American gun nuts just want excuses to kill everything in sight!", etc.
Which all reminded me of something else, and I was able to find it. Remember Treadwell, the idiot who thought "The Grizzly is My Friend"? Account by the people involved who found the remains, and met the bears. From the pilot who first found the scene:
...Pausing to untie, Fulton glances over his shoulder. And behind him is a bear, coming fast and low, eerily silent, 20 feet away. As the pilot leaps to his floats and pushes off, the bear is a body length behind. Fulton scrambles into the cockpit and slams the door. The bear, a big, dark male, skids to a stop at the water's edge, eyes still fixed on him. Huffing, the bear paces the bank as the plane drifts out into the lake. Normally Fulton would have a shotgun in his plane, as per state regulations, but he's left it back in Kodiak.
"I've been charged by a few bears, but this was different," Fulton says. "He wasn't doing that usual bear-of-the-woods thing, acting big and bad. He was crouched down, sneaking on me. That look in his eye was real different too. Right then I felt like he was out to kill me and eat me." Fulton's heart is thumping. Now he knows something isn't right. The Beaver's engine rattles to life, and the bear fades into the alders.
You can believe all you want to that all the animals are just friends you haven't been introduced to yet, that they will never harm you if you have love in your heart; if you annoy the wrong one, or at the wrong time, you'll get recycled.

Author of 'Born Free killed by Kenya lionNow, that seemed pretty pat to me. No question at any time of any kind of human foul play, although I commented to several people at the time that it was going to be most embarrassing to the "Else Wild Annimal Appeal" for the world's most famous lion lover to have up and gotten The Big Chop from one of her own sweeties. And, what of the dozens of other heavy fund-raising organizations who generated millions of cool, green dollars for the sake of all those lovely, soft-eyed endangered cutie-pies? What would good old Cleveland Amory have to say about such a turn of events? Clearly, the death of Joy Adamson at the hands- excuse me, paws- of a lion would not help anybody's fund-raising let alone their projection of the African lion as lying characteristically with lambs on a bed of jonquils.
From herald Wire Services
Nairobi, Kenya- Joy Adamson, whose Born free awakened millions to her beliefs that "once wildlife is gone, it is gone forever," was mauled to death by a lion, it was reported Friday.
Friends said that Mrs. Adamson, 69, had taken her customary evening stroll Thursday night in the bush outside her tent camp in a remote area of northeast Kenya, and came across a lion chasing a buffalo.
The lion turned and killed her.
She was found by a park employee, lying face down ithe heavy wounds on her hands, arms and head.
"The lion is still at large, but we have tracker teams out looking for it," a police spokesman said.
Her body was found about 1,000 yards from the barbed-wire enclosed compound where she had been conducting experiments in returning tame leopards to the wild.
In 1956 she adopted Elsa, the wild-born heroine of Born Free whose mother had been killed in self-defense by Mrs. Adamson's husband.
Believing, as George Adamson once said, that "the mentality that condines wild animals in lifelong captivity is little removed from the mentality that condoned the slave trade," the two conservationists raised the cub on love and affection while also training her to hunt.
My, my! Guess what happened? Seems that all those tracker teams spooring up the lion that killed Mrs. Adamson must have been mistaken. Apparently, the mention of a buffalo was all wrong, too! From an apparently confirmed story of death by lion, the "official" verdict was now that Mrs. Adamson had been murdered by a human since some of her belongings were missing.

Missouri Democrats push for bans and confiscation
Any person who, prior to the effective date of this law, was legally in possession of an assault weapon or large capacity magazine shall have ninety days from such effective date to do any of the following without being subject to prosecution:Bastards really like the idea of forcibly taking private property, don't they?
(1) Remove the assault weapon or large capacity magazine from the state of Missouri;
(2) Render the assault weapon permanently inoperable; or
(3) Surrender the assault weapon or large capacity magazine to the appropriate law enforcement agency for destruction, subject to specific agency regulations.
5. Unlawful manufacture, import, possession, purchase, sale, or transfer of an assault weapon or a large capacity magazine is a class C felony.
Yeah, I know; possibly something to do with why gas is up so damn high.
Yes, I'm heading for the kitchen; forgot to publish this one last night
On a more earthbound note,
Minnesota Democrats: "I'm not here, I can't hear you!" when information they don't like comes in. Hope the video is back up soon.
From troops still over in A'stan, The Pirates of Pogadishu:
Due to the recent trip to the provinces, we had to pass through the space/time portal known as Bagram, which has been dubbed by some of those who operate outside the wire but have frequent brushes with it, “Pogadishu.” As many others have noted, it is a world separated from the war by a million miles of cultural and tactical vacuum. A rocket attack on the base in the recent past brought home to the denizens of this burgeoning city of tens of thousands that there is a war on… but on a daily basis you couldn’t tell it from Disney Drive.
You can’t tell from the actions of those running the place, either.
Which reminds me of this:
Hey, Illinois, you elected this bastard. And all his corrupt friends, and all the other corruption you've tolerated for decades.
This being Sweden, I'm waiting to hear that at least one member of the research team, realizing that he'd gone to school for twenty-plus years only to wind up at the pinnacle of his career standing in a lab getting fish high, went home and locked all the garage doors and left the Volvo running.
No, the founders could NEVER have imagined weapons capable of rapid fire. Noooo...
How connected was the President while people were dying in Benghazi? This much.
Damn. I'd never heard of the Forage War before.
I shall now repair to the kitchen, where a pork shoulder is awaiting a trip to the oven, where it shall reside for the next few hours.

Know those Swiss mg cleaning kits?
Look like this? Quite nice; steel rod with brass junctions that keep the steel from ever touching the bore, couple of oil/solvent bottles. I've had one in my range servant for a long time. One problem: the threads are metric, and don't fit any US cleaning stuff.
Which brings me to my latest(and quickest-finished) project.
Took a piece of 1/4" hexagonal brass rod left from the punch sets I made. Squared the ends, marked center. Happily, the Swiss rods used a standard-type thread(M5-.8) so I could find a tap(which uses a #19 drill bit); the 8x32 tap for the jags and brushes I already had. So here's a rod section, my adapter, and a .45 jag:
Drilled about halfway with each bit, then tapped the holes
And now I can use any standard jag or brush on it
It won't work on anything under .30 caliber(unless you turn down the brass junctions), but for those it'll do the job nicely.

Why don't we trust them again?
Maybe this?
Since assault weapons are not a major contributor to US gun homicide [interesting admission right off the bat] and the existing stock of guns is large, an assault weapon ban is unlikely to have an impact on gun violence. If coupled with a gun buyback and no exemptions [meaning no "grandfather clause"](tranlation: 'Confiscation') then it could be effective.
and
An exemption for previously owned magazines would nearly eliminate any impact. The program would need to be coupled with an extensive buyback(confiscation) of existing large capacity magazines. With an exemption the impact of the restrictions would only be felt when the magazines degrade or when they no longer are compatible with guns in circulation. This would take decades to realize.
and
Finally, "universal background checks" will not help (and will indeed exacerbate the problems of straw purchasing and theft) unless guns are registered. California's rulers love gun registration, because when they later ban the registered firearms, without a "grandfather clause," they know just where to go to confiscate them (earning the state "extra credit" from the Brady Campaign).

Oh Canada, what's going on
up there?
Human Rights Watch once again demonstrates why it has such a sterling reputation.
"Yes, I helped you before, but now you're in the way."
I'm going to put this bluntly: What fucking moron came up with this?
And they wonder why morale is in the toilet.
Disgusting. Flat disgusting.

Sean has a list of companies telling New York to go away
So far his list shows
And oh, my, he has contact info at the post!
- LaRue Tactical 2-8-13
- Olympic Arms 2-12-13
- Extreme Firepower Inc, LLC Date of policy unknown, reported 2-13-13
- Templar Custom 2-13-13
- York Arms 2-13-13
And oh, my, he has contact info at the post!
Oh, you have got to read the whole thing!
First they came for the blacks, and I spoke up because it was wrong, even though I'm not black.
Then they came for the gays, and I spoke up, even though I'm not gay.
Then they came for the Muslims, and I spoke up, because it was wrong, even though I'm an atheist.
When they came for illegal aliens, I spoke up, even though I'm a legal immigrant.
Then they came for the pornographers, rebels and dissenters and their speech and flag burning, and I spoke up, because rights are not only for the establishment.
Then they came for the gun owners, and you liberal shitbags threw me under the bus, even though I'd done nothing wrong. So when they come to put you on the train, you can fucking choke and die.

Sooner or later, some cops kicking doors and shooting dogs in the night
because they have some excuse to do that instead of knock in the daylight and say "We have a warrant" are going to get shot up by some citizen. And they'll charge him with EVERYTHING and insist "He HAD to know we were police!" And the citizen's lawyer is going to pull out a list of things like this
Especially if it turns out to be another wrong address/wrong person/bullshit 'tip from an informant' raid.
Guys, PLEASE stop this crap. Use the ninja suits and such for only those situations that actually need it; it'll make things a LOT better all 'round.
"Give me money and when I'm in office I'll take care of you." This clown should be in jail for soliciting bribes.
I've just had another lesson in the leftist version of Reasoned Discoursetm:
Disagree that Dr. Carson should apologize for speaking his piece, you favor rudeness.
If someone says they think civil war is possible if things continue, that means "You people want a war. And think shooting people who disagree with you is reasonable."
Point out the error of the previous, and "I see discussion is not welcome. And since you want a war, I'm scared of you."
Etc.
Some more thoughts on Gutierrez, theDemocratcommunist who admits he wants to go after handguns.
Sheila Jackson Lee is a vile, odious, disgusting, race-baiting piece of crap.
'Freed slave' my ass.
And remember, you nasty bitch, it's YOUR party leader Obama who came up with the sequestration you're so unhappy with.
Ten armed men stormed into a home early Sunday morning demanding money and drugs.and ask "And just how were they supposed to KNOW you were the police?"
The home invasion happened at a home in Edinburg around 1:30 a.m.
According to Edinburg Police, the gunmen demanded money and drugs.
An eyewitness told Action 4 News that the suspects were dressed in black shirts that said “S.W.A.T.” on the front.

I knew you could.
Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley appears to have used his executive power to get the personal emails of citizens with hunting licenses in order to push gun control. The second-term Democrat is using the information in an attempt to divide gun owners to build support for his extremist legislation to abridge Second Amendment rights.
Just a few quotes from the enemy:
"If I could have gotten 51 votes in the Senate of the United States for an outright ban, picking up every one of them... 'Mr. and Mrs. America, turn 'em all in, I would have done it. I could not do that. The votes weren't here."
U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) CBS-TV's "60 Minutes," 2/5/95
"Banning guns is an idea whose time has come."
U.S. Senator Joseph Biden, 11/18/93, Associated Press interview
"Yes, I'm for an outright ban (on handguns)."
Pete Shields, Chairman emeritus, Handgun Control, Inc., during a 60 Minutes
interview.
"We must be able to arrest people before they commit crimes. By registering guns and knowing who has them we can do that. If they have guns they are pretty likely to commit a crime."
Vermont State Senator Mary Ann Carlson
"I am one who believes that as a first step, the United States should move expeditiously to disarm the civilian population, other than police and security officers, of all handguns, pistols, and revolvers... No one should have the right to anonymous ownership or use of a gun."
Professor Dean Morris, Director of Law Enforcement Assistance Administration, stated to the U.S. Congress
"I feel very strongly about it [the Brady Bill]. I think - I also associate myself with the other remarks of the Attorney General. I think it's the beginning. It's not the end of the process by any means."
William J. Clinton, 8/11/93
"The Brady Bill is the minimum step Congress should take...we need much stricter gun control, and eventually should bar the ownership of handguns, except in a few cases."
U.S. Representative William Clay, quoted in the St. Louis Post Dispatch on May 6,
1991.

Totally unrelated to anything political, Shermlock had a link to this video(probably NSFW a lot of places)
which reminded me of something: ever see The 7 Faces of Dr. Lao? I think I was about twelve when I saw it, and this scene, well, made an impression
I wasn't sure what it was about Barbara Eden in this, but I liked it.
I still do, for that matter.

...Due the passing of this legislation, Olympic Arms would like to announce that the State of New York, any Law Enforcement Departments, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders within the State of New York, or any New York State government entity or employee of such an entity - will no longer be served as customers.
In short, Olympic Arms will no longer be doing business with the State of New York or any governmental entity or employee of such governmental entity within the State of New York - henceforth and until such legislation is repealed, and an apology made to the good people of the State of New York and the American people.
If the leaders of the State of New York are willing to limit the right of the free and law abiding citizens of New York to arm themselves as they see fit under the Rights enumerate to all citizens of the United State through the Second Amendment, we feel as though the legislators and government entities within the State of New York should have to abide by the same restrictions.
Oh my, I think I need a drink and my pipe.
Add this to Larue Tactical. Now if a few more jump on...
And Remington? Oklahoma would love to have you move here. Same for some of you other companies still hanging on in places where the politicians want to tax you until they can put you out of business.

The dirtbag in Californicated, after killing another officer,
is dead.
I'm sure someone will check twitter to find out how the racists and leftists are taking the news.

Well, in a twisted way, it makes sense
Icky, but sense.
Couple of other thoughts on DHS buying so much ammo, this including something I hadn't considered: money laundering.
Well, Napolitano is apparently thinking of running for Pres...
Got a comment on the post noting the Marines marching with no bolts in their rifles, what think you?
On the SS "no bolts" thing -- I've seen lots of credible comments that disabled weapons has been the standard for 20 years, but they normally do it by removing the firing pins.
That leads me to believe that the Marines did this, to make it perfectly plain to the world that their weapons were disabled. I think this was a silent protest.
I personally think that the Marines have been in a cold war with the White House since Benghazi (when the White House refused to let them assist), and the sacking of GEN Ham and GEN Mattis are part of this war. I also heard that various staff officer level Marines were going unit to unit prior to the election, "educating" the Marines there on what is an is not a lawful order and how to handle people issuing unlawful orders. I think this thing goes very, very deep.

And for some of today's crap, the gun bigots are exiting the closet
and telling the truth:
On Friday night’s Rachel Maddow Show, Representative Luis Gutiérrez (D-IL) told guest host Melissa Harris-Perry that the violence in his Chicago district could be cause for lawmakers to take action not only on semi-automatic weapons, but on handguns. Noting (correctly) that nearly 97 percent of Chicago gun murders in 2011 were carried out with handguns, Gutiérrez said,
So, are they actually surprised that this clown uses sock puppets? Really?
Hey, stop bitching, peasant: King Bloomberg and NYEffing City need more of your money. So pay up, and no whining about your house being destroyed.
Another case of "But this is OBAMA doing it, so we're fine with it. Bodies and all."
My contribution:
Back to Chicago, IL, I think this counts as "Stop telling the truth!"

”It’s clear that we need to look at handguns also.”Somebody tell that idiot Piers Morgan that the secret is out. Also note that Chicago BANNED HANDGUNS years back, which was about the time the place really started down the drain; now the bastards are acting like that didn't happen and "We need to do something!"

Despite having some of the toughest gun
laws in the nation, Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy says
the Windy City “does not have strict gun laws.”
“One of the things that I would like to
again try to clear up, and I ask you to please stop adopting the
rhetoric of the gun advocates,” McCarthy said, addressing the press.
“We are at a state in Canada where they
don’t want you using firearms for anything. Ever,” Lilley said. “That’s
the push. And as we look at what’s happening in the United States,
that’s what’s happening.”
He went on: “So I’ve got a warning to
my American friends: Registration will lead to confiscation. And if you
don’t believe me, just look at what’s happened here.”
From before the election: You've only got two choices: the clowns in the Pentagon
don't care if troops get to vote(if they did they'd have the ass of whoever's responsible for this crap), or some politicians in uniform don't want a lot of troops to vote. So which is it General "I'm busy with ROE that gets our troops killed" Dempsey?
You might remember a movie a few years back called The Path to 9/11, which was edited and otherwise suppressed because of pressure from the "How dare you tell this truth about us!" Clintons. Ran across the unedited original scene in one of the "We could have had bin Laden back then" situations; it's... enraging, so say the least.
