What’s this “we” shit, Hogg?

Such a hero.

David Hogg Brings Gun Control Message To Mayors Conference In Boston
“We can’t keep hosing the blood down our streets, repairing the shattered windows and bullet-riddled doors and burying our young because when we bury our young we bury our future,” Hogg said.

Seriously? You have cleaned and sanitized a blood spill? You’ve patched bullet holes?

C’mon; have you ever even fixed a smashed window?

Let’s take it a little farther. You hid in a closet, clutching your smart phone during a shooting in a building. But did you ever stare down the barrel of a full-auto battle rifle; not some varmit round like .223/5.56, but full-power 7.62 NATO.

I’ve done all of those. Yet, somehow, I still respect individual rights. I oppose your victim disarmament schemes.

Partly because I have done all those, and think people should be able to defend themselves.

You prefer a closet.

And unarmed victims for the predators your laws don’t dissuade. It must be the old saw: You don’t have to outrun the lions, just your helpless friends.

I prefer to stop the lions.

While you hide in a closet.

Target Selection Failure

As seen at Reason.

I can’t speak for the Nazis, but WMLs? Is punching the demographic most likely to respond with a Mozambique drill the best use of Monteiro’s obviously limited time on Earth?

That’s a real blow to the Democrats

Man Shot Dead After Trying To Rob Gun Owner Identified As Treamel Gray, 23
A man with a concealed-carry license shot and killed an armed robber Wednesday night in Grand Boulevard, police said.
[…]
Treamel Gray, 23, one of the alleged robbers, was shot in his head. Gray, of south suburban Flossmoor, was pronounced dead at the scene.

Now Gray’s only going to be able to vote once in Chicago this November.

Pink Pistols

A friend pointed me at this article: Gun sales surge among gays, lesbians after Orlando shooting. This please me. But what pleases me even more is this quote buried a bit further down:

The Pink Pistols is a national gun club for gays and lesbians. It saw its membership soar from about 1,500 members on Saturday to 3,500 on Monday.

If you’re gay LGBT…∞ and more interested in defending yourself than being prey, you should join the Pink Pistols. It’s pretty easy.

It’s easy to become a member of the Pink Pistols!

First, it doesn’t cost anything. There’s no dues, and no membership form to fill out.

Second, you just have to believe in the basic core principles of the Pink Pistols, that all people have the right to defend themselves from harm, and that everyone has the individual right to keep and bear arms as protected by the Second Amendment.

Find a local chapter.

Love those headlines

Woman dies after officer-involved shooting in Gallatin
She allegedly backed him up to his vehicle while threatening him with the same axe she assaulted Pickard with.

Correction: Woman killed after attacking two officers with a frickin’ battleaxe.

Seriously.

But she was really a very nice lady.

“Laronda was a very sweet, caring person until you pushed her. Laronda wasn’t violent unless you made her violent. She was a good mother, she took good care of her child. Her and I had our ups and downs, but she was my only child out of five, and I love Laronda dearly,” said Sweatt.

Um… only child out of five? Only one that survived Laronda’s tantrum’s, or what?

But how dare that cop use a gun to defend himself?

“God forbid there was a stray bullet. This is just too close to home,” said Samantha Demonbreun.

A psycho running around the neighborhood with a battleaxe is just clean fun, I guess.

“Laronda didn’t like to fight. All through school the child had to fight.”

Well, she went out fighting.

Clearly, “don’t bring a knife to a gunfight” should be read as encompassing most edged weapons.

Maybe someone should do a GoFundMe page…

Yep. That’s the intended victim’s front porch.

Mother shoots intruder who entered south side home through baby’s window
“She heard the window get busted and she called her husband and said I think somebody’s breaking in the house,” said Edsel Ballard, the woman’s father.

“He broke in through the baby’s window, ok, and when he was coming out the door, my sister was coming out her bedroom door, he aimed and shot at her first and then she shot him,” said Eddie Ballard, the woman’s brother.

The woman exchanged gunfire with the burglar, family members said, and the intruder was hit multiple times.

…to get that moron into a remedial reading class.

While I’m on the subject…

Reports have it that the Oregon college campus is a gun free zone ‘protected’ by a single unarmed security guard.

Based on fatality/wounding numbers, there were at least 32 people in that classroom.

Who all seemingly passively stood up when ordered, to be shot.

Shades of Virginia Tech, where one victim claimed he was shot, then laid there passively until the gunman came to shoot him again. And passively let him shoot him again.

32 versus 1. You can passively let him shoot, or you can take your chances. After the first few Christians were shot in the head, figure your chances in a rush are better.
