According to the Broward Sheriff’s Office press release:

” Patrick Lavoie, 33, jumped out of the car to confront the driver of the Tacoma, Cleveland Anthony Murdock, 38. According to Lavoie’s girlfriend, who was driving the Honda, Lavoie felt that Murdock was driving too close to their vehicle. Witnesses say Lavoie was arguing with Murdock, tried to open the door of the Tacoma and was seen reaching in through the driver’s side window as he fought with Murdock. Fearing for his safety, Murdock took out his weapon and shot Lavoie.”
“Murdock was interviewed by detectives and later released. BSO Homicide investigators will present the case to the State Attorney’s Office for their review.”

Even though Mr. Murdock has already been tried & convicted by the local media, the fact that he was released by BSO investigators gives us an idea that the shooting was somewhat “good.”

Ego and guns do not mix. If you carry concealed, you should know by now that you must give up any perceived right to indignation of any kind in your daily life. But there is little we can do bout everybody else ego but try and avoid it which is not easy. Every day we go out, we pay our monies we play our chances and sometimes it comes back snake eyes.

The stalwart members of the “religion of peace” have declared fatwa on Molly Norris who created the Everybody Draw Mohammed Day. It was such a popular thing thatit seems several idjits got their turbans twisted in a wad and now they want to help Ms Norris meet her maker.

So I have several things to say about this:

Number One:

Number Two: If you are Anwar al-Awlaki or one of his followers, find the above demotivator insulting and want to do something about it, contact me via email for the date and locations where I can be found. Please do tell me if having your remains eaten by gators is considered unclean or repulsive.

Number Three: KMA.

It seems that the Pagans biker gang wanted to do some damage to their eternal rivals, the Hell’s Angels. ATF agents did their thing and stopped the conspiracy which included an explosive device packed with nails and (gasp) 34 guns! A stockpile!

The photo made me think a couple of thoughts: 1) Harsh economic times must be hitting everybody, biker gangs included. Not very sexy weapons. 2) No wonder you don’t see many bikers at public ranges, any half assed action shooting club will outgun the hell out of these guys.

Shooter Ready?

Stand By!

My 500th post should be something deep and insightful. Something that would shake people to the core or bring them to tears.

But that would mean I am some great writer that actually has something important to say and that people would actually care.

So, this is as far as it gets for today.

I really need a vacation and some trigger time.

Mazel Tov!

Gators are just ugly enough and mean enough to make fun. Plus we like them in Florida.

So what the cognoscenti are looking now in an AR-type is a reliable piston-driven, low maintenance weapon that should preferably shoot a round close to or in 30 caliber and have rails to put all kinds of crap on top of it?

Call me silly, but I thought that problem was solved.

AR owners have to go to Brownells for parts and tools to fix their babies. We AK owners just have to go to Sears Automotive.

LawDog gets to explain it better than I can. As usual.

There is a short list of people who can tell me to do any-sodding-thing with my own property, and Abdul the Moderately Rabid isn’t on it.
