An intruder who was bludgeoned to death by a chair-wielding Raleigh Court apartment resident last weekend was identified Thursday as Jose Elias Castro Ramos, 27, of Roanoke…No charges have been filed at this time,” police spokeswoman Aisha Johnson said Thursday.
If somebody breaks into your home and you kill them, I A) Won’t really get all that upset, and B) won’t really mind what you chose as your weapon. In this case a Chair was what did the trick.
So Robin is a pro gun person who isn’t frustrated by Brady Board Member and Joyce Puppet Joan Peterson’s arbitrary comment moderation. Check out this exchange.
The second reason is this firearm is because the Glock, constructed entirely of porcelain, is capable of passing through airport metal detectors completely unnoticed. The only downside to this amazing weapon is the price, which is quite expensive.
Why would Robin say such a thing? Check out Joan’s Response:
This should not be reassuring to anyone, Robin. Do you think that’s a good idea?
Joanie, you’ve been trolled, hon. Oh she’s also dropping this wad of bullshit:
What do you call those features then? What do you say when someone can make a semi-automatic into an automatic gun and mow down 68 people in one span of 2 hours? I call that a dangerous gun because of the ability to change it into a weapon of war.
Yeah converting guns from semi-auto to full-auto is WICKED easy. it takes a talented gunsmith with a quality machine shop. You know, the kind of shop that can also take a block of steel and convert it to a full-auto rifle.
I met Nick Leghorn at the NRA Convention, and he’s a really nice and talented guy. Sadly he works for an anti-gun false flag no-talent Troll.
I make it a point not to link the blog Mr. Leghorn posts from, and generally read it only to see if his boss has decided to plagiarize some of my intellectual property as he is wont to do from other bloggers.
I don’t link his blog because I care about gun rights, the shooting sports, and the 2nd Amendment.
Still this video is too cool not to link. You can click on it to follow it back to the troll’s den, if that’s your prerogative.
I LOVE suppressors. If they weren’t illegal in Mass they would be an NFA Item I’d be willing to pay the bullshit $200 tax on.
Of course I don’t think there even should be an NFA…
So I was talking to buddy Waldo about guns and such, and my love of .22 revolvers, and my overall lackluster of .22 auto-loaders came up.
I was mentioning that since the 10-shot 617 is based off of the L Frame, that contains the 7-shot 686 Revolver. I was curious how many holes they could put in the wheel of the N Frame that has the 8-shot 627. Then I mumbled something about the X-Frame. Waldo Came back:
X frame .22, huh? They could one up Ruger, put twenty chambers in it, and call it the Double Deuce.
Is that not a solid gold idea or what? S&W can you hear me? If you can, all I ask is a 4″ Double-deuce with a fiber optic front sight for myself, and one for Waldo!
The report, released Tuesday, showed a 13% increase over 2009 in violent crimes committed against people because of their perceived or actual sexual orientation, gender identity or status as HIV positive, according to the National Coalition of Anti-Violence Programs.
Last year’s homicide count reached 27, up from 22 in 2009, and was the second-highest total since the coalition began tracking such crimes in 1996. Of those killed, 70% were minorities and 44% were transgender women.
This is a big deal! If you are LGBT you need to take your safety seriously. Take some personal defense classes! Get your carry permit. If you live in one of those super-friendly LGBT areas where buying and carrying a gun is a flaming pain in the ass (no pun intended…OK maybe a little pun) you need to think about how you got there.
Yeah the Republicans had a LOT of prominent members who are making homophobia and being discriminatory to LGBT people as some sort of bigoted feather in their hat.
But come on, what have the Democrats done for you?
The VPC, AKA the Joyce Foundation’s version of the Special Olympics now has a publication out on the Ruger Mini-14.
First up they call the Mini-14 the “Poor Man’s Assault Rifle”…which on that line A Winchester 94 is also a “Poor Man’s Assault Rifle” if you definition is “inexpensive, and can be used to assault”. Of course the Mini-14 is just a scaled down version of the Springfield M1A rifle, both of which are not “Assault Weapons” under the Federal Assault Weapons ban, both guns did have select fire variants, the M14 and the AC-556, but honestly both Assault Rifles are obscure footnotes in firearm history, and as far as I know both Assault Rifles are no longer in production by any company.
Now both rifles can be modified to be considered “Assault Weapons”, and actually one guy did to make this really neat video:
The Assault Weapons Ban was a law written by idiots to fix a problem that didn’t exist. Still there are scores of people who won’t admit that they have the IQ of a garden salad and are doubling down on their past mistakes.
But then comes the “Data”. The Mini-14 is a horrible weapon of destruction they list six mass shootings over the course of 24 years…and a grand total of ONE of them (the earliest shooting cited in 1987) The rest seem to simply involve other Ruger handguns. Odd that they’d include an arbitrary, and cherry-picked data set that doesn’t even support their point. Special Olympics. Who wants a hug?
They then use the ravings of known lunatic Anders Behring Breivik to support their cause! Yeah their biggest supporter will probably be admitted to a mental hospital for the rest of his life by the end of the year. Who wants a hug?
Of course those who know reality, know that Old Bill Ruger was actually a go-along-to-get-along sort of guy. He never made high capacity magazines for the Mini-14 available to the public (until recently all large Mini-14 magazines needed to be sourced from 3rd parties) and was known saying “No honest man needs a handgun smaller than a canned ham”.
Some of that attitude has left Ruger when Old Bill passed away, they now have a great line of concealed carry handguns, and offer the Mini-14 with the 20 round magazine, adjustable stock, and flash suppressor pictured above (from all pictures of Breivik, he was simply using a standard Mini-14 with an after-market rail system), still most of their handguns have manual safeties, and magazine disconnects, as well as loaded chamber indicators, so they can comply with “Safety Regulations” imposed by fools like the VPC.
Yawn, yet another report showing the Joyce Foundation attempting to appear relevant, and failing miserably!
Brutal and something that comes up quite often in the “Gun Death?” files. Don’t know how much more to offer to this but that a gun wasn’t used so it wasn’t a “Gun Death”….like that makes any difference to anybody who is still human…
Discredit opposition (Obviously only Canton Residents can validly claim misconduct when a Police officer threatens to beat and murder a handcuffed and compliant citizen)
Lots of fear mongering about gun rights. Note that he keeps claiming that this is some horrible event because the man was carrying, but the most dangerous person was the out-of-control cop. He also drops the fear flag about carrying in universities and restaurants, which of course he fails to reference problems with that…because there aren’t any.
And of course a combo: “I’m not against guns…” and “Common Sense Gun Control”, well played.
This guy is a total smarmy asshole, and I hope he’s the lawyer defending Officer Roid Rage because this is the best defense that pig deserves!
Waldo sends me this article from the Portland Press Herald. Overall its quite the balanced article given that the Press Herald is the Boston Globe of Maine, and acknowledging individual liberties isn’t high on their priority list.
Still the last line stuck to me:
In any case, his bloody attacks raise a question that is being asked with more frequency than before: How can free societies defend themselves from those who use their liberties to plot and carry out deadly assaults on innocent people?
Tragically, it is a far easier question to ask than it is to answer — but part of the response has to be that giving up our liberties for safety is the one sure way to let the violent among us win.
Well if they want a perfect answer, there isn’t one. Iz Life, Iz Not Safe. There is always danger and there is nothing you can do to eliminate it. Still as a free society we can support and respect human life by being willing to stand up against those who do not. When you encounter violence against yourself or others FIGHT BACK! Have tools to make sure your efforts aren’t wasted!
“There are some in America who will use this shooting to assert that Norway’s strong gun laws don’t work or to support the American gun lobby’s campaign to make it easier to carry guns in public places,” Acting President of the Brady Campaign Dennis Henigan said.
