Ninja of the Jungle

Holy S***!

I’d be so toast in Africa

And I cried…. I swear I cried.

I saw this on Freedom Is Just Another Word…. Please somebody check MaddMedic and see if he is alright. I know I am in pain. I actually went in Facebook, located the group and made my one screen cap.

Interpol discovers water on Planet Earth

Or as we say in our circle… “Duh!”

In an exclusive interview with ABC News, Noble said there are really only two choices for protecting open societies from attacks like the one on Westgate mall where so-called “soft targets” are hit: either create secure perimeters around the locations or allow civilians to carry their own guns to protect themselves.

“Societies have to think about how they’re going to approach the problem,” Noble said. “One is to say we want an armed citizenry; you can see the reason for that. Another is to say the enclaves are so secure that in order to get into the soft target you’re going to have to pass through extraordinary security………..”Ask yourself: If that was Denver, Col., if that was Texas, would those guys have been able to spend hours, days, shooting people randomly?” Noble said, referring to states with pro-gun traditions. “What I’m saying is it makes police around the world question their views on gun control. It makes citizens question their views on gun control. You have to ask yourself, ‘Is an armed citizenry more necessary now than it was in the past with an evolving threat of terrorism?’ This is something that has to be discussed.”

In those enlightened states where the carrying of a concealed weapon is a normal thing, an event like Nairobi has three types of people: Attackers, Victims and Civilian First Responders… those who have the means and the tools to say: “Wait one second Khalid, we don’t take kindly your disruption of my Cinnabon intake.”

Everybody else is just late for the party.

Gun T-Shirt ruins Japete’s Vacation (UPDATED)

Japete Glock Greece

As my readers know I have just returned from a spectacular trip to Greece. I can’t say enough about the beauty and the antiquities, the food, the color of the water, the open and friendly Greek people who will go out of their way to make your visit good and comfortable and more. But then the guy in this photo came along and sat down at the restaurant where we were eating. Talk about your “ugly American.” Could he have been any more offensive? He was surrounded by beauty and friendly Greeks. Why in God’s name did he need to wear a t-shirt like this? When you travel in Greece, you are not there to make a point about guns

via Common Gunsense A blog to advocate for sensible gun legislation: Disgusting and offensive “gun guys” bring their extremism on travels.

I will grant you that the message on itself is a wee bit offensive, but I still have not figured how Joan made the guy as American or how he managed to carry a gun in a country that has such strict Gun Control Laws. Maybe the NRA has such power that it bypasses local laws and the members get to carry all sorts of weaponry anywhere in the world. I guess this guy had a Bradley Fighting Vehicle just parked outside the eatery.

I do love her waxing about the peace and quiet of Greece admitting that yes, there might be an uptick on some criminal activity according to the State Department (The same one that brought us “They don’t need back up in Benghazi”) going as far as saying that “Police have also reported a significant increase in burglaries of both occupied and unoccupied homes and apartments.” Great, I feel better now. And I also imagine that the Greeks stopped all riots because she was in town and did not want her to be bothered during her stay.

As usual, Joanne is so full of Stygian κοπριά even Heracles could not deal with it.

UPDATE: Mike V’s Corner found the T-Shirt…..in Australia.
