Mad Max: Fury Road.

Guns, Monster Trucks, Human Monsters, mayhem,…. yup.

And I think even a cameo:

This movie will be rated PG-PJBoy (No Pajama boys or Beta Males allowed)

Because I am awesome and I can do CTRL F, I downloaded the whole darn thing and checked for stuff that might interest us on a Second Amendment manner.

1. ATF is still funded. Damn it.
2. Federal Firearm Disability (Recovering 2A rights after serving time) still remains unfunded.
3. $3,000,000 is for competitive grants to distribute firearm safety materials and gun locks.
4. Bye Bye Fast & Furious-type operations “unless law enforcement personnel of the United States continuously monitor or control the firearm at all times.”
5. Defunding the denial of “permit to import United States origin ‘‘curios or relics’’ firearms, parts, or ammunition.”  So you have the money to approve but not deny…
6. “The prohibitions in subsections (a) and (b) shall include any activity to advocate or promote any proposed, pending or future Federal, State or local tax increase, or any proposed, pending, or future requirement or restriction on any legal consumer product, including its sale or marketing, iincluding but not limited to the advocacy or promotion of gun control.“

This was a very quick look at the HUGE bill. There might be more stuff there.

“With Landrieu’s departure, the Democrats will have no more senators from the Deep South, and I say good. Forget about it. Forget about the whole fetid place. Write it off. Let the GOP have it and run it and turn it into Free-Market Jesus Paradise. The Democrats don’t need it anyway.”

As a resident of this “Free-Market Jesus Paradise” I believe it’s crucial that those who suffer the misfortune of residing outside the FMJP borders learn a little something about how us paradise-dwellers exist.

And so we present to you, 10 reasons the Free Market Jesus Paradise is awesome, although it should be noted this is by no means an exhaustive list

The very best teachers (and there are too few of these, in my experience) understand what they’re teaching, where it fits, and why it is (or isn’t) applicable in any given circumstance. There are a lot of law enforcement trainers out there, for instance, who can’t fathom that there’s a difference between being awakened in the middle of the night by someone breaking through a patio door and getting a dispatch for that guy who just broke through that door. There’s a huge difference in how each person needs to respond even if the catalyst for the event — the bad guy — is the same.

Nothing new here if you have been following this blog for a while.  I think a lot of the infighting has to do with trying to capture clientage which is not a bad reason to come up with some new twist or cool move to set you apart from the others.  But I also see it as a losing proposition: The bigger the Ninja stuff, the less Regular Joe is gonna be attracted and the instructors will not make that money.

Instead of Cool Ninja Moves, we need MANY instructors that teach the Basics on each of the guns: Pistol. Shotgun & Rifle. A two or three-day class covering from basic operation to basic defensive use. No rappelling down a building or shooting your rifle while doing 50 mph in the highway, just your basic instructional on how to safely operate and defend yourself and your family.

Take most rifle classes. They are touted to be tactical rifle/carbine or Defensive rifle/carbine but what 90% of them mean to say is tactical/defensive training with an M4. And not any M4 but one with about 4 car payments worth of crap attached to the rails and another year worth of mags, dump pouches, harnesses, chicken plates tactical 5.11 wardrobe and whatever sunshades are officially cool this week. No, if you are an instructor, you should be able to teach a line of students with rifles ranging from a lever-action to a SCAR up and including a Mosin Nagant sans pig sticker. You are hired to teach basic & defensive rifle and not show how much you know about the M4 with really cool keymod magnesium rails. Maybe that is the reason why Appleseed is kicking butt and generating more proficient rifle shooters than anybody else.

If you keep it simple, they will come.

Thousands of cellphone users in Kentucky were surprised to receive an “emergency alert” from the federal government warning them to “prepare for action,” a message local authorities later blamed on “human error” during testing.

Frankfort Emergency Operations spokesman Buddy Rogers said that the alert was mistakenly sent out “during testing” and was the result of “a computer error, followed by a human error.

Early tests of the cellphone emergency alert system in New Jersey caused panic after Verizon customers received text messages warning them that a “civil emergency” was in progress and to “take shelter,” prompting alarmed citizens to flood 911 lines with anxious calls.

And not even a full-fledged Might-of-Hercules fist but a backhand. The victim is at the hospital in a coma.

Crank it all the way to 11!
