Long post, but fun. This was a wee bit of a Twitter exchange I had with a “gunsense” mother from Washington D.C. Dear God! It was so pitiful, but fun. I trimmed down the whole thing because there were a couple of interlopers (one brought the Guns Like Cars thing and had to be schooled while discussing with this Mom) and I know I pasted one of her responses out-of-order, but the gist of the conversation is a true as it was in real-time. My favorites has to be her equating of teaching kids about staying away from guns with “blaming the victim.”

Enjoy!

Pretty much after that and with the “help” of a couple of other friends of her, it became the usual and obligatory Redneck Prejudice ride and assorted Insults. If they have not deleted their tweets, the whole thing should be still up there if you feel inclined to read the rest. But what else can you expect from people who have demonstrated they really have no idea what they are talking about or how to fix the issue? It is all slogans and memes and when those fail, go straight to the insult to see if they can get a rise out of you. No substance.

And that is why we win.

This one should be followed if nothing more for the craft. McThag found a cheap revolver with some serious rust and is on his way to make it decent again.

He started with electrolysis and already the change is noticeable. Here are some before and after pics:

And..

and…

Looking forward to the final product.

And this is from her Facebook page:

I looked up “Shaheeda Hadee” and came back as “Martyr Supporter”.

The suspect is from West Palm Beach where she owns an online store according to state records.

It will end up being a simple traffic accident. She was trying actually to get into the Flamingo Garage.

Editorial Hissy Fit Warning.

Chicago’s next mayor should use his bully pulpit much more to push through better gun laws, especially in Springfield. As we said before, Chicago and Illinois need a vigorous champion of common-sense gun control, someone as willing to be as identified with the cause as former Mayor Michael Bloomberg was in New York.

There’s not shortage of smart ideas to reduce the number of illegal guns. Illinois should license gun dealers and create stronger penalties for people who fail to report lost or stolen guns or disregard the state’s new background check law. Congress should require universal background checks, nationwide, and crack down on gun trafficking.

So, even when they were given “special status” to do almost what they wanted about guns, crime is not going down (other than in possible cooked stats.) And their solution is to ask not only for more Gun Control but to have a major like Michael Bloomberg in NY…a NY that has seen an increase in the number of violent crime after the passage of the SAFE law which the politicians swore over a stack of Bibles, Bhagavad Gitas and Qurams, that crime was going to pretty much disappear?

And the killings will continue as long as the people keep voting for the same politicians that are sending them to the morgue.

And they will blame us.
