Alabama Lawmaker Proposes Ban on all Semiautomatic Gun Sales

Rep. Mary Moore, D-Birmingham, introduced a bill today that she said was intended to ban the sales of all semiautomatic guns, both rifles and pistols.

“It’s time that we had that conversation in the state of Alabama as well as across the country,” Moore said. “Because it appears as though it’s all right for our children to be killed. And nothing is done about it.”

I think after the tax incentives given to Remington and Kimber to come to Alabama, outlawing the majority of thier products is a bad idea.

I don’t know much about the Democrat constituency of Birmingham, but in North Alabama this would be about as popular as offering to perform circumcisions with a belt sander.

I think we’re safe.

Via Mc Thag.

Just when I thought I was going to get a restful weekend.

As of now,(4:23 pm EST) there are 87 amendments attached to the reading of the bill. If we are lucky, by tomorrow at 10:00 am there will be over a hundred and more piling up.

Here we go again. Mail the Senators.

Copy/Paste the email Addresses and let them know we do not want SB 7026 anywhere but six under.

VOTE NO ON SB 7026. No More Gun Control Laws.

Babylon Bee is a Christian satire website and they posted a funny about CNN and a washing machine. Then this happened

Facebook  is warning the person that the link he shared may not be the truth.  And it has the Snopes seal of Veracity to boot.

Babylon Bee did the smart thing and struck back with more satire:

Even with all the advances in computers, software, AI and the rest, there is an old concept that remains very much valid since when computers were the size of an Abrams Tank:

GIGO: Garbage In, Garbage Out.

How many airline passengers does it take to kill a $40 million tax break for Delta Air Lines? 13.
The Georgia legislature removed a jet-fuel tax break from a larger tax package Thursday. Lawmakers were upset that Delta, which is headquartered in Atlanta, dropped the National Rifle Association from a discount-fare program in an effort to appear neutral on gun policy.

After the firestorm, Delta will review all its marketing programs to avoid those that might become political, CEO Ed Bastian announced Friday.

But the airline said only 13 passengers ever bought tickets with an NRA discount. That translates into each discount costing the airline about $3 million in tax breaks.

The number of Delta Air Lines passengers who bought tickets with NRA discount: 13

Words fail me, mostly because I am laughing so hard.

A bit of much-needed humor.

I just got a Robocall in which and indignant woman was telling me about the evils of arming teacher and making our schools dangerous. I was about to hang up when I hear her say “Press ‘1’ to connect with your representative.” No, It could not be that easy!

So I pressed one and I got connected to my rep’s staff who dutifully recorded my vote in favor of arming teachers.

And now excuse me while I go fetch me a cup of joe.

It happened about one hour ago in Central Michigan University.

“ZOMG! Another School shooting! A dastardly NRA-Fueled Monster killing our babies! BAN THE NRA! SHOOT GUN OWNERS IN THE FACE!”

Then, the facts appear. And rather fast for this kind of stuff.

“Oh Dear! What could have happened to that poor child to express his feelings in such a sad and destructive manner? He needs empathy from us.
And in other news…”

Don’t even try to deny it.
