Florida: SB 634 (Fishing with AR15 Verbotten)

SB 634: Lawful Ownership, Possession, and Use of Firearms and Weapons
GENERAL BILL by Powell

Lawful Ownership, Possession, and Use of Firearms and Weapons; Prohibiting a person from owning, possessing, and lawfully using firearms and other weapons, ammunition, and supplies while engaging in certain lawful uses if he or she is within a specified distance of the real property of certain locations, etc.

If you listen carefully, you will hear the howling of outrage from the Florida OCIs. It seems that they never expected that the Opposition would bring a bill against the little Open Carry we have left to the Legislature.

Dear OCIs: this one is 100% all on you.  How’s that “Normalizing Open Carry” is coming along?

HOW TO PLAY AND SING THE BLUES

Found in the Book of Feces. Hilarious and true.


HOW TO PLAY AND SING THE BLUES
1. Most Blues begin with: “Woke up this morning…”
2. “I got a good woman” is a bad way to begin the Blues unless you stick something nasty in the next line like “I got a good woman with the meanest face in town.”
3. The Blues is simple. After you get the first line right, repeat it. Then find something that rhymes, sort of: “Got a good woman with the meanest face in town. Yes, I got a good woman with the meanest face in town. Got teeth like Margaret Thatcher, and she weigh 500 pound.”
4. The Blues is not about choice. You stuck in a ditch, you stuck in a ditch. There ain’t no way out.
5. Blues cars: Chevys, Fords, Cadillacs and broken-down trucks. Blues don’t travel in Volvos, BMWs, or SUVs. Most Blues transportation is a Greyhound bus or a southbound train. Jet aircraft and state-sponsored motor pools ain’t even in the running. Walkin’ plays a major part in the blues lifestyle. So does fixin’ to die.
6. Teenagers can’t sing the Blues. They ain’t fixin’ to die yet. Adults sing the Blues. In Blues, “adulthood” means being old enough to get the electric chair if you shoot a man in Memphis.
7. Blues can take place in New York City but not in Hawaii or anyplace in Canada. Hard times in Minneapolis or Seattle is probably just clinical depression. Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City are still great places to have the Blues. You cannot have the blues anyplace that don’t get rain.
8. A man with male pattern baldness ain’t the Blues. A woman with male pattern baldness is. Breaking your leg ’cause you were skiing is not the blues. Breaking your leg ’cause a alligator be chomping on it is.
9. You can’t have no Blues in a office or a shopping mall. The lighting is wrong. Go out to the parking lot or sit by the dumpster.
10. Good places for the Blues:
a. highway
b. jailhouse
c. empty bed
d. bottom of a whiskey glass
Bad places for the Blues:
a. Nordstrom’s
b. gallery openings
c. Ivy League colleges
d. golf courses
11. No one will believe it’s the Blues if you wear a suit, ‘less you happen to be an old ethnic person, and you slept in it.
12. Do you have the right to sing the Blues?
Yes, if:
a. you older than dirt
b. you blind
c. you shot a man in Memphis
d. you can’t be satisfied
No, if:
a. you have all your teeth
b. you were once blind but now can see
c. the man in Memphis lived
d. you have a 401K or trust fund
13. Blues is not a matter of color. It’s a matter of bad luck. Tiger Woods cannot sing the blues. Sonny Liston could. Ugly white people also got a leg up on the blues.
14. If you ask for water and your darlin’ give you gasoline, it’s the Blues. Other acceptable Blues beverages are:
a. cheap wine
b. whiskey or bourbon
c. muddy water
d. nasty black coffee
The following are NOT Blues beverages:
a. Perrier
b. Chardonnay
c. Snapple
d. Slim Fast
15. If death occurs in a cheap motel or a shotgun shack, it’s a Blues death. Stabbed in the back by a jealous lover is another Blues way to die. So are the electric chair, substance abuse and dying lonely on a broken-down cot. You can’t have a Blues death if you die during a tennis match or while getting liposuction.
16. Some Blues names for women:
a. Sadie
b. Big Mama
c. Bessie
d. Fat River Dumpling
17. Some Blues names for men:
a. Joe
b. Willie
c. Little Willie
d. Big Willie
18. Persons with names like Amber, Jennifer, Tiffany, Debbie, and Heather can’t sing the Blues no matter how many men they shoot in Memphis.
19. Make your own Blues name Starter Kit:
a. name of physical infirmity (Blind, Cripple, Lame, etc.)
b. first name (see above) plus name of fruit (Lemon, Lime, etc..) c. last name of President (Jefferson, Johnson, Fillmore, etc.) Examples: Blind Lime Jefferson, Jackleg Lemon Johnson.

Automotive advice from a meat space engineer to a Dot-Com car maker

From the New York Post:

Dad died in burning Tesla because its futuristic doors wouldn’t open, lawsuit claims

A Tesla driver burned to death after a crash because the “futuristic handles” on his car trapped him inside and rescuers couldn’t open the doors, it is claimed.

Dr. Omar Awan, 48, lost control of his car, skidded across a road and smashed straight into a palm tree in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in February.

Smoke and then flames engulfed his blue Model S Tesla shortly after the crash.

A police officer arrived almost immediately, and crowds gathered outside the vehicle, but no one was able to save the father of five because of the “inaccessible door handles,” a lawsuit claims.

The car’s retractable door handles are meant to “auto-present” or pop out when they detect a key fob nearby.

But it malfunctioned, stopping first responders from opening the doors and saving Awan, it is claimed.

This post touches on two things I’ve written about before.

First, is the Tesla is the Apple iPhone of cars.  It is designed (poorly) with all the features and gewgaws that Silicon Valley phone makers love to stuff into their products, with no intent on device (or vehicle) longevity, or ease of service and maintenance.

This reliance on digital thinking causes these Silicon Valley-type engineers to forget to build in manual overrides.

When your laptop gets the blue screen or spinning rainbow of death, you don’t die.

When your car has a software hiccup and faults, you do.

It could be your door handles don’t work or your drive by wire steering and breaking cut out at highway speeds.

It doesn’t matter, you die because those wonderful, slick features don’t have a manual override.

I am a meat space engineer.  I want to make sure than when I pull on my door handle my door opens.  The battery can be dead, the engine on fire, I don’t give a shit.  I want an all-metal linkage to connect my door handle to a lock that works when I tug on it.

Also, buy a Zak Tool window punch, a Lifehammer, or just keep a good of fashioned axe within reach of when you sit in the driver’s seat so you can manually extricate yourself out of your vehicle.

I have a Zak Tool clipped to my first aid/blowout bag in the center console and a Fiskars hatchet in the driver’s door pocket.

Call them a portable manual override.

Uber driver forgets the rules of gun safety

Teen Uber passenger says she was accidentally shot by driver

A 15-year-old Uber passenger was mistakenly shot by her driver as he moved his gun, authorities said.

Bailey Braun was struck in the ankle during an Uber ride with her boyfriend Sunday afternoon in Hollywood, Fla., NBC Miami reported.

Police said the driver, 27-year-old Adrian Harper, had stopped to pick up two other passengers.

When he moved the firearm from the seat to the holster, it accidentally went off inside the vehicle and stuck Braun, officials said.

Braun said Harper then jumped out of the car to her aid and apologized to her.

“He ran around the side and was like, ‘I’m so sorry, I’m so sorry,’” Braun said. “And when I asked him what happened, he said that it went off.”

Unless he had one of those shitty Taurus 24/7s, a gun doesn’t just “go off.”

Why was the gun sitting on the passenger seat when he went to pick up passengers?

My guess is that he was in a hurry, fumbled the re-holstering, and squeezed the trigger.

The driver was arrested on suspicion of culpable negligence inflicting harm.

Uber said drivers and passengers are prohibited from carrying firearms. The company confirmed that Harper has been suspended. It was not immediately clear what kind of gun the driver had.

So he lost his job, may face some jail time, and will pay what is technically known as “an ass-load” of money in legal fees, and potentially a lawsuit,  because he was careless.

Also, this is one of the reasons I won’t drive with Uber.  I don’t like the idea of letting strangers into my car without being able to conceal carry.

Let us go over the rules of gun safety one more time:

1. ALWAYS KEEP YOUR FIREARM POINTED IN A SAFE DIRECTION.

2. TREAT ALL FIREARMS AS IF THEY WERE LOADED.

3. KEEP YOUR TRIGGER FINGER OUTSIDE THE GUARD AND OFF OF THE TRIGGER UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO FIRE.

4. BE CERTAIN OF YOUR TARGET, YOUR LINE OF FIRE, AND WHAT LIES BEYOND YOUR TARGET.

5. ALWAYS WEAR APPROPRIATE EYE AND EAR PROTECTION WHEN SHOOTING AND MAINTAINING YOUR FIREARM.

This driver here violated Rule No. 3 and now he will be paying for it and some poor girl will have to have her ankle rebuilt.

The Katie Hill story is my favorite news story of the year

The conservative news site Red State broke the story that Democrat California Congresswoman, Katie Hill was involved in some sexual indiscretions.

CA Rep. Katie Hill Allegedly Involved Female Staffer In 2-Yr ‘Throuple’ Relationship

Photographs and text messages obtained by RedState show that Rep. Hill was involved in a long-term sexual relationship with a female campaign staffer. The woman, whose name is not being released, was hired by Hill in late 2017 and quickly became involved in a “throuple” relationship with Hill and her estranged husband, Kenny Heslep.

Heslep and the staffer, according to text messages provided to RedState, believed the polyamorous arrangement to be a long-term, committed relationship. The trio took multiple vacations together, including to Alaska, where this photograph was taken.

The British newspaper, The Daily Mail has even more to say about this.

Shocking photos of Congresswoman Katie Hill are revealed showing off Nazi-era tattoo while smoking a bong, kissing her female staffer and posing nude on ‘wife sharing’ sites

Shocking photographs of Democrat Katie Hill posing naked with a tattoo of what appears to be a Nazi-era Iron Cross on her bikini line while smoking a bong and making out with her young female aide have been obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com

The congresswoman, 32, was also pictured naked brushing the young woman’s hair, who DailyMail.com can identity as Morgan Desjardins, 24, from Santa Clarita, California.

Desjardins began a relationship with Hill and Heslep shortly after she started working for Hill in 2017, before the three-way affair broke down this summer when Hill told both her husband and her lover that she wanted to focus on her work.

Hill’s wild lifestyle has been laid bare in a cache of texts and intimate photographs obtained by DailyMail.com, as sources revealed Hill and Heslep also posted her naked photos online under a thread called ‘WouldYouF**kMyWife’.

Based upon the photo of her published in The Daily Mail, I can most assuredly say, I would not fuck his wife.

And in posts on his Facebook page earlier this month, the estranged husband accused his wife of having an affair with her campaign finance director, Graham Kelly, allegedly cheating on him and the other aide for a year of their throuple relationship.

‘Why has she been sleeping with her (male) finance director for the past year at least?’ he wrote, accusing his wife of ‘being with her husband (me) for almost 15 years and then leaving me for another MAN, not woman, whom she is still seeing’. 

Heslep also posted a screenshot of texts from a former videographer for Hill’s campaign, Jeff Bomberger, admitting to the estranged husband that he knew about the alleged affair with Kelly. 

Not just has she had multiple sexual indiscretions, there is evidence that she is a fall-down drunk.

Also from The Daily Mail:

(I love the British press for how they don’t provide cover for the Democrats)

‘Getting hammered again?’ Texts reveal how Congresswoman Katie Hill’s husband and staffers worried that her drinking ‘affected her ability to do her job’, as she faces investigation by ethics committee over throuple affair

Democratic congresswoman Katie Hill’s excessive drinking raised concerns among her staffers, lover and now-estranged husband, according to bombshell text messages.

The 32-year-old California representative came home drunk at 3am, missed flights because she was staying out all night partying, as she even admitted her fear that she was heading towards mania, texts obtained by Red State reveal.

Hill’s husband Kenny Heslep and various staffers all voiced their concerns about her drinking and how it was impacting her mental health – and ability to do her job.

Hill was even reportedly witnessed at an event in mid-July visibly intoxicated and her staffer had to tell her to leave because she ‘shouldn’t be here right now.’

I love this story so much I want to eat it for dessert with a spoon.

Congresswoman Hill is 32 years old.  She is of the #MeToo generation, super woke to the ideas of power dynamics and consent.  She ran as a champion on women’s rights.

Then, when she got into office and had just a hint of power, she morphed into a booze and poon-hound.

She groomed one subordinate as a sexual plaything and had an affair with another.  That these staffers were on her payroll, and one was significantly younger, takes this beyond an ethics violation and is potentially criminal.

What I love about this story is the for the better part of three years – it really started with the Trump/Access Hollywood “grab ’em” tape – that men are bad, men are predators, if only we had elected more women this never would have happened, etc.

And here is a young, Woke, female member of Congress method acting the life of Ted Kennedy.

It’s not about sex, it’s not about gender, it’s not about how men are toxic and wrong.  It’s about power and accountability.

When a person has power and thinks they can get away with stuff, some will fall to the temptations of lechery and avarice.

Anybody is corruptible.  The seed of evil doesn’t like strictly in the souls of men.

Congresswoman Katie Hill is perhaps the greatest champion of women’s equality in government right now, by proving that anybody – even a young woman – is capable fo the most extreme forms of sexual manipulation and domination.

Why awareness is important.

Video supposedly from Brazil. Defensive shooting.

Being hyper attentive 24/7 is an impossibility. It is tiresome and soon enough you get bored til you decided to ignore the whole thing.  But small deep scans of your surroundings and paying attention to uncommon noises will give you something very important: Time to react and produce a defensive counterattack.

Amazing how equality of the sexes is so easily achieved with a small mechanical device, isn’t?

If you want to understand why J. Kb. got heartburn and high blood pressure…

If you read his post about the Israel Dismissal debate, you can tell he was running blood pressure about 20 mmHg higher that is recommended. I watched the debate too, but I am on medication so I have the advantage.

But we both believe in te old saying “Misery loves company” so here is the link to the Florida Senate video of the debate so you can enjoy it with a bottle of your favorite hard liquor.

If you want an example of how convoluted and distorted the Democrats went to cover and try to toe the line imposed by Broward County Political Machine, I urge to to watch from 1:45:15 till 1:48:07 and try not to lose composure as Senator Audrey Gibson (Minority Leader) comes up with th weirdest interpretation of what happened at Parkland while ignoring every school shooter protocol established since Columbine. You see, according to her, the BSO deputies were establishing a perimeter so the Coral spring officers could go in. They were not cowards or badly trained or nothing like that, they were in a support position!

Senator Gibson, Minority Leader. Senator Book is seated right behind her.

And the intervention of Senator Book, mentioned by Hunter Pollack in the tweet that J. Kb. shared, can be seen starting at 2:34:21. The intro is beautiful, she sort of hints that the removal od Israel is akin to the killing of Martin Luther King. It goes downhill after that.

One tidbit you may not know: There are five State Senators that share Broward County, all five voted to keep Scott Israel. And if I recall correctly, it was Thurston, one of the Broward Senators that told his colleagues that 95% of Broward voters wanted to keep Scott Israel. I guess that ridiculous number came to him during his nap.

I wish I could comb the video and share with you more examples of the rampant stupidity and callousness shown yesterday, but my stomach cannot deal with that much crap.
