Florida: 1,927,724 Concealed Weapon Permits till June 2017

We added 8,700 this past month and it seems that we may not reach the magic 2 million CWPs this year as I had hoped.

Women are still 26% of the CWP holders overall, but they comprised almost 35% of the total approved licenses for the month of June. The numbers went up from 504,059 in May to 507,099 in June, or 3,040 ladies who have decided to join the ranks and be their own first responders. Women

Trump Baby Balloon comes out as pathetic.

Oh my hell, Britain. I’m watching the news, and all this hype over your Trump Baby Balloon, and the pics beforehand it’s gonna be like this massive blimp towering over Big Ben, because YOU ARE SO EDGY! And in reality all you actually made was that tiny little thing? Sad!
In America, I’ve got a 20 foot tall inflatable Santa Claus I blow up just for Christmas.
This is what happens to a country after it bans guns. Next thing you know you can’t even own butter knives and your balloons are all shit

And he is not wrong.

That is pitiful. Couldn’t they get a loan and order a bigger one?  This is the country with Pink Floyd and its infamous Pig balloon that ended up being the cover of the album Animals and it was brought back for the 30th anniversary of the album’s release.

 

At the end of the day, it just reminds me of a cheap adverting balloon you see in front of used car dealerships.

But hay, at least floating baby Trump does not have a pointy/stabby end that would make it dangerous.

Most Lawyers do not understand Self Defense.

Via Legal Insurrection.

Meet Wendy Murphy. She seems to be an advocate for women and against Sexual Violence.

The problem for Ms. Murphy is when her Liberalism conflicts with the Law and the realities of live when it comes to violence against women.

It does not get better.

In most states (if I am not mistaken, check your local laws), rape is a forcible felony which can be responded with deadly force.  Ms. Murphy is aware of that but at the same time she does not support that women defend themselves from a rapist with a gun.  Hell, she does not mention any other defensive tool, not even hand-to-hand.

Where does she come from then if a woman is not allowed to use weapons to defend herself? She is trying to teach those purveyors of masculine toxicity that there is a law that says that they can get killed if they rape a woman. Apparently just waving the law nd tell then, it will make predators stop their sadistic ways  and become Pajama Boys. That at the same time she is telling everybody that they cannot exercise the advantage that the law is giving them to defend themselves and thus she is sending the message to the same predators that there is actually a pool of victims available for the taking and with her support. She is basically trying to use the Boogie Man to scare animals that do not scare with prison long prison term and enjoy violence. There are several level of magnitude in the Stupid Scale for that one.

This last screen cap is the one that gives me the final creep.

She does not know or forget one of the several conditions for a legal self-defense claim and somebody has to remind her.  I remembered a ProArms podcast where Massad Ayoob and I think Marty Hayes were talking about Self Defense being the red heads step child in Law School and that if the institution was decent, you would have a semester’s worth of instruction, but that many schools did not even took that much time.  Add to that those lawyers specializing in criminal law are used to defend only criminals and not the good citizen who was forced to defend him/herself and you have 2.5 strikes against you if you have not prepared yourself for eventualities.

I wonder what would be Ms. Murphy’s position if a woman on a campus that prohibits guns, is attacked by a rapist and she uses a gun to save herself.
