It says a lot.

Sign in a Venezuelan store:”Closed due to lack of safety. Father and Son shot.

Hugo Chavez’s paradise is mentioned in the Global Burden of Armed Violence as the fourth most violent country in the world. It is also mentioned as the only country that fulfill all the requirements they recommend to reduce gun violence. These are requirements that would make Schummer, Feinstein, Brady, Ladd and the rest leap for joy and announce to the world that social peace was now at hand. But somehow the total contradiction is lost in them.

Civilians are pretty much screwed in Venezuela. Police is heavily corrupt and useless and that is when they are not themselves participating in crimes. Forget about trying to get a gun for self defense unless you are part of “The Project” (euphemism for The Chavez Revolution) or grease enough skids to obtain your permit and gun. And be ready to shell some more (lots) of dough if you actually have to defend yourself since it might be illegal to do so.

Of course, criminals have no problem obtaining guns. Hell, they even get all artistically creative with their guns and ammo when they are in love!

Bless God I am not a parent.

The Occupy Wall Street idiots scaring little kids on their way to school. But check at 00:58

That tall SOB would have ended up staring at the wrong end of my sidearm and with the rest of his life quantified in seconds, not years. I am a patient man who tolerates abuse from stupid people almost everyday, but to stoop so low as to terrorize children for your “political” reasons is just one step above Chechen terrorists killing the kids at Beslam.

Follow D.A. Bryce’s advice

Approach everyone with smile in your face and murder in your heart.
Delf. A. Bryce. FBI Agent and amazing gunfighter.

Why would I use such an politically incorrect quote? Because you never know what lurks in the heart of a person you are about to meet as two people found out the hard way. They were just answering a job ad in Craiglist that turned out to be an invitation to attend their deaths.

It is good to see that in our so-called modern times, there are trusty people that believe in the goodness of their fellow human beings. I am not one of them.

Why belong to the NRA?

For a while now, the cool-hipster-“occupy” trend in the interweb is to bash the NRA for every Second Amendment thing that does not go according to the timetable and desires of some. Funny thing happened while they were bashing the NRA and doing nothing else: The NRA got shit done.

We are suffering from the malady of Instant Gratification. The “I want my stuff/results/conveniences right this second or I’ll cry till I turn blue” permeates pretty much every level of our country and when mixed with an “all or nothing” attitude, it makes for poor decision making. Wars against a powerful enemy are not won by grandstanding but by attrition properly fueled with patience but patience seems to be lacking in this day and age.

Thirty years ago many were betting that a complete ban on firearms possession by civilians was just around the corner and the thought of Shall Issue carry was a laughable dream. Today it is not only a reality, but yesterday we actually had Congress approve National Reciprocity without any choking amendments or provisions and UN Anti Gunners bemoan the fact that three hundred million firearms are in the hands of U.S. citizens and that is almost half the small arms in the World.

And while the Usual Suspects were carting people from all over to use as heart wrenching backdrop to their latest Anti Second Amendment effort (Fix Gun Checks Bill) while the solitary Dave Kopel stood alone and firm and taking it directly to Senator Schummer, provisions were added to the minibus bill to counter & stop sneaky ATF regulations and other efforts by the government.

I am not going to continue with recitations, but it is clear that for many people the NRA does not move fast enough or loud enough, it surely moves quietly where others have to shout way back there in the starting line, their wheels spinning while getting nothing done.

CSGV & Brady say Guns in Bars are a bad idea and they were right!

One armed robber found out the hard way that Civilians having Guns in Bars is something very dangerous.

A pub employee in Southeast Portland told police he shot an armed robber early Wednesday morning after he stole from the till and threatened patrons with his sawed-off rifle.

You can hear the sucking sound of irrelevancy just tearing away at Brady and Ladd.
