Sorry, I feel lazy today.
No witty post for you! Having loads of fun in Twitter with GSGV and another anti gunner.
Where a Hispanic Catholic, and a Computer Geek write about Gun Rights, Self Defense and whatever else we can think about.
Straight form England Police accused of failing to investigate paedophile gang for fear of appearing racist.
The Telegraph gets all mighty against police but they are as full of the PC virus as anyone else. Quoting from the story:
Police and social workers were last night accused of failing to investigate an Asian paedophile gang for fear of being perceived as racist, allowing them to prey on up to 50 young white girls
.The name of some of the Asian accusers? Kabeer Hassan, Abdul Aziz, Abdul Rauf, Mohammed Sajid, Adil Khan, Abdul Qayyum, Mohammed Amin, Hamid Safi and a 59-year-old man.
What, were you expecting names like Chin, Ho, Sato, Akita or Lee? Nooooo! That would be racist and The Telegraph cannot be seen as that.
I have to say that Miami with all its problems, has some darn pretty sunrises.
Blame the toons from the 40’s but I always see this as music to be played.
I love the new era of digital HD TV. You catch mistakes in movies you’ve been watching for decades and never saw before.

And I am not talking about the Zombie Invasion, or the Mayan apocalypse or even a mayor meteorological event; just every day stuff.
I was never sold on the Blanche DuBois School of Survival. Depending on strangers even those with the best intentions is a silly at best and suicidal at worst. Granted, sometimes there is safety in numbers, but those numbers of people must be in the same reference of goals and either augment your strength or cover your weaknesses.
But it ranks me that people fail to prepare for the mundane. If you happen to get headaches with certain regularity (and even if you don’t) and do not carry some sort of analgesic, you are a dunce. If you work at night or at a very big building and do not carry a source of light, get ready for bumping into things and probably get hurt. And I don’t care how cool is your latest smartphone, you will always need a pen or pencil and something to write or draw on. And for the love of God, carry some sort of knife or blade with you at all times even if it is a mini Swiss army knife; even the dumbest HR director will be hard pressed to call that a weapon.
At work I developed a reputation for being a prick because I refuse to lend/share/give my items to unprepared colleagues. I will explain to new hires what to expect and that they should prepare a basic kit to have with them at all times even if the company does not require it and sure as hell will not provide it. But most of them will not heed advice and loudly beg me for stuff as basic as a pen to sign a form, something they have to do every frigging day. The lesson is simple: You were told, I am prepared, you aren’t, deal with it. Funny thing is that they not only refuse to learn but waste their time being sore at me.
Start planning and preparing for the small things you may need every day and planning for the big things will be much easier and smarter.
Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn should always remember that it is better to keep your mouth shut and let people think you are stupid than open your mouth and remove any doubt. After getting a strong denial from Gov. Rick Scott about suspending Floridian’s right to carry concealed nearby the GOP Convention, Myor Buckhorn ripost was not a smart one:
“I believe that there is no reason to have a concealed firearm in downtown Tampa that week. And to be clear, I am far less concerned with those who have concealed weapons permits than the ones who may somehow acquire a weapon and use it to create mayhem”
Sparky, at first glance one may say you may want to check Florida Statutes or at least a lawyer before saying stuff like that. Carrying a concealed weapon without a permit is already illegal in Florida. But since we know better, I am assuming that you tried to cover the political poop you already laid by insinuating we need double secret probation of those who carry illegal and you never meant to infer that the almost 46,000 citizens of Hillsborough County with a CWP were criminals , specially since you won your last election by barely 10,000 votes.
Judge: Self-defense doesn’t apply in drug shooting – Florida Wires – MiamiHerald.com.
If you re buying dope (illegal,) you express dissatisfaction with your dealer (also doing something illegal) about the transaction and both respond with guns blazing (dare I say also illegal), as the law stands in the book you are a moron for claiming self defense.
But apparently Prosecuting Attorneys have trouble with the concept.
