Illinois General Assembly: Family and Personal Protection Act (Open & Concealed Carry Law)

 Illinois General Assembly – Bill Status for HB0154.

Not a bad law at all as introduced. It has a preemption clause that should take care of the Cook County shenanigans, restricted places similar to the ones here in Florida. Not very fond of the Sheriff doing the paperwork instead of a State office but it has enough protections from letting it be a May Issue by Proxy. I foresee serious screaming about the Open Carry bit by the Nannies in Chicago so expect it to be sacrificed.

As the Opposition is fond to say “It is a good first step.”

One lucky bastard

Bulgarian politician Ahmed Dogan saved by Murphy and or Guardian Angels.

More info via UK’s Daily Mail. The gun appears to be a small caliber Beretta of very close clone. My educated guess is that the shooter forgot to disengage the safety. Security was non-existent so I am guessing that this kind of things are not common in Bulgaria.

Again, one lucky bastard.

They Aim To BS: The ‘Assault Weapon equals Assault Rifle’ meme, South Florida Edition.

SFDB is a South Florida hipster blogger that pretends to be my particular troll. He is banned from this blog, but he can reach me via Twitter because he is fun to screw with. His latest attempt went (and still goes) like this:
SFDB WEAPON panel 1 His link comes from a Daily Kos article perpetuating Josh Sugarmann’s attempt to muddy the definitions between Assault Rifle and Assault Weapon in order to elicit emotional response instead of reason in the “conversation about guns.” (In the tweet I accidentally posted 1988 for the article but the year is actually 1998.)

SFDB WEAPON03Simple, right? A rifle is one subset in the category of weapons, yet the Anti Gun Narrative paints weapon as only a rifle. Even the dumbest of the dumb has to get it and that is why I do not give credence that Gun Control Advocates are just “uninformed” but plain liars.

SFDB WEAPON04It is easy to see where this is going. But I love the way he stepped into the breach… and shots himself in the foot.
SFDB WEAPON05He links to Thesaurus.com result for weapon which is OK, but the conversation is about his point that Assault Weapon is the Same as Assault Rifle and frankly the Thesaurus answer ensures hilarity.
SFDB WEAPONAssault Blowgun? Assault Harpoon? Assault Scythe? Assault Bowie Knife? But my favorite hands-down-heartly-laugh has to be Assault Banderilla:
banderilla01The term “Assault Weapon” has now become any weapon Gun Control activists want banned. There is no definition for the term on purpose: they can tailor it to fit whatever the hell they feel needs to be prohibited. From Henry .22LR Lever action rifles that can carry more than the magical 10 round capacity to the good old pump shotgun that happens to have a pistol grip, they are “Assault Weapons” because some legislator somewhere says so  and not because any technical or historical reason. Even SFDB cannot be stupid enough to confuse a pump shotgun with a select-fire rifle, but he will continue with the lie because that is the way gun control hipsters dubstep. (Hipsters don’t roll…or so I am told)

Danny Glover: “2nd Amendment was created to protect slavery.”

“I don’t know if you know the genesis of the right to bear arms,” he said. “The Second Amendment comes from the right to protect themselves from slave revolts, and from uprisings by Native Americans.”

via [WATCH] Actor Danny Glover tells students 2nd Amendment was created to protect slavery.

You have to understand Mr. Glover for saying stupid shit like that. He is worried sick about the health of that paladin of Freedom and his personal friend Hugo Chavez fighting cancer in a private hospital in Havana.

Glover is a certified Left Wing idiot. As such, he has neither the problem of altering/ignoring history nor throwing his own race under the bus if necessary. If as he said, the Second Amendment was created to protect Slavery, how come racists went to legal extremes to declare blacks not citizens (or even human) and therefore not allowed to have rights?

[Blacks] beings of an inferior order, and altogether unfit to associate with the white race, either in social or political relations, and so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect.

It would give to persons of the negro race, …the right to enter every other State whenever they pleased, …to sojourn there as long as they pleased, to go where they pleased …the full liberty of speech in public and in private upon all subjects upon which its own citizens might speak; to hold public meetings upon political affairs, and to keep and carry arms wherever they went.

Danny Glover, sad pathetic man desperately seeking attention & relevance in a time he wouldn’t be hired by Hollywood to do a ED commercial.

CSGV are scumming F**** but we already knew that.

The group points to the $27,250 that Barrow has received from the NRA over eight years. The quote from CSGV executive director Josh Horwitz: “Representative Barrow has been bought for the price of a new truck. It would be laughable if his lack of regard for our families’ safety wasn’t so dangerous.”

Here’s the problem: The CSGV has done some selective editing in its video. In its version of the ad, Barrow displays a pistol and says:

“Long before I was born, my grandfather used this little Smith & Wesson here….”

It cuts the Augusta congressman off there. How did Barrow finish the sentence in the original, and what did the CSGV choose to omit? This:

”…to help stop a lynching.”

Around here, those five additional words make a big difference.

More reasons to keep an eye on the Cult to Stop Gun Rights Violence. These asshats will get desperate enough to pull some crazy crap.

I avoid Armored Trucks like a plague

According to FBI investigators, two men ran up to and held up a Brinks armored truck guard outside a bank. FBI Special Agent Michael Leverock said, “Two armed males approached an armored car courier.”

The robbery happened at the Space Coast Credit Union branch at 7751 W. Oakland Park Blvd. Surveillance cameras caught the robbery as it unfolded. The guard was using a dolly to deliver money to the bank at the time. Two men wearing masks ran up with guns drawn and yelled at him to put his hands up and then ordered him to the ground.

Not the first time I mention it. Thank God nobody got hurt.

After all, South Florida is the former stomping grounds of William Russell Matix and Michael Lee Platt.
