A Kanawha County sheriff’s deputy who works as a bailiff was injured Tuesday evening after his gun went off during a scuffle involving three deputies and a mental hygiene patient at the county Judicial Annex, police said.

The gun was still in Deputy Chris Atha’s holster when it discharged, causing the bottom of the holster to blow out and injure Atha’s leg, according to Chief Sheriff’s Deputy Mike Rutherford. Officers are still trying to figure out how the gun went off, but the mental hygiene patient did have his hand on the holster, Rutherford said. The bullet did not strike anyone.

I wonder which brand & model of holster is about to get raked over the coals.

“Remember: Whether or not you vote is public record.”

We will KNOW if you didn’t vote for us, and maybe, who knows, your public assistance may be cut, or perhaps we will reduce the minutes on your obamaphone, we will know if you did not vote for us, and we will make you pay, mules. Not voting is double-plus ungood. Only thought criminals do not vote. Remember: Ignorance is Strength and Freedom is Slavery, voting for us is freedom. Vote or you will feel the pain of unpeace. Chocolate rations may be reduced to 25 grams per week!

Congratulations Charlie Crist, you do get the 1984 award for political tyranny!

Thank God it seems we will have a majority in the legislature and probably a Veto-Proof one. Crist has payback written all over him.

The ultimate status symbol for the well dressed Gun Control Activist has always been their own particular set of armed bodyguards. Shannon Watts is not the exception and you can see them at the Kroger’s HQ not-so-populated protest.

You have to love being in the 1% where you can travel the country with your own particular pack of armed guards, just as she did back for the NRA Meeting back in April.

“Guns for me but not for thee ” is their motto.

It looks like they manage to gather some 50 to 60 members to wave signs…and Shannon: “We are the majority of their customers?” Really? and you could not gather 100 of your most ardent followers to come protest in what has been possibly the longest campaign you had against a private company to date?

This is not fail, this is colossal failure.

“Mommy! Cujo looks weird. He is foaming at the mouth and growling!”

“BANG!”

“OK, he is dead now.”

The End.

“We are gonna need a bigger boat.”

“Holy crap that thing is huge! Barret .50 Cal or C-4?”

“Why not both?”

“BANG—BOOM”

The End.

“Heeeere’s Johnny!”

“Here is Pietro Beretta Motherf*****!”

“BANG!”

The End.

“Who takes shower with a gun? <cough>”

“I do. It comes in handy, doesn’t it?”

Expensive, but more fun than traditional methods.

But a recent article in Mother Jones asserted that we have “entered a new period in which mass shootings are occurring more frequently.” This report relied on the well-known list compiled by Mother Jones, which has been one of the key sources used to support the claim made in the last few years that the incidences of mass shootings have accelerated.

There are some problems with the Mother Jones list, however, when comparing it with data I’ve collected on mass killings. In my research on mass murder, which has resulted in four peer-reviewed academic publications and a book, I’ve identified more than 1,200 mass killings that have occurred in the U.S. since 1900. Of these cases, 161 were mass public shootings, which I’ve defined as incidents that occur in the absence of other criminal activity (e.g., robberies, drug deals, gang “turf wars,” et cetera) in which a gun was used to kill four or more victims at a public location within a 24-hour period. Aside from a few minor differences, this definition is largely similar to the one ostensibly used by Mother Jones.
