I’m your huckleberry, motherfucker.

I’m buying more mags on Monday.

A bunch of perverts and queers dressed as nuns in fetish gear are marching against gun rights.

I guess the weird ass shit they have in their bedrooms is none of your business but the AR you have in your’s needs to be totally banned.

Also, some person decided that paining this banner was a good idea.

Does this want you want to turn in your guns?

I’m trying to keep up with the March Against Civil Rights For Our Lives.

That brought me to fawning coverage of it by The Daily Mail.

That is where I read this passage about David Hogg.

Shooting survivor David Hogg, who has been at the forefront of advocacy for tighter gun laws since 17 of his classmates and teachers were murdered on February 14, gave a foul-mouthed interview on Friday on the issue. 

Speaking to The Outline, Hogg, 17, tried to explain why his generation felt they had to take things into their own hands to effect change. 

”When your old-a** parent is like “I don’t know how to send an iMessage” and you’re just like, “Give me the f***ing phone and let me handle it,” Sadly, that’s what we have to do with our government. 

‘Our parents don’t know how to use a f***ing democracy, so we have to.’ 

Excuse me Mr. Was-nothing-but-Jizz-less-than-18-years ago?  Your’e not old enough to vote and want to lecture the rest of us on democracy.

What is wrong with David’s dad that he didn’t clamp down on that shit.

Had I insulted my father like that on the national stage, he would have knocked me into next week.  And I would have deserved it.

This kid is blitzed out of his gourd on fame and is rambling like he’s high.

He is a spoiled, tantruming child par excellence.

Somebody needs to wash Goebbels Jr.’s mouth out with some soap.

Alex Wind is a Parkland student.  By the rules of the time, he’s now a “survivor.”

This is what he said today at March For Our Lives.

"If teachers start packing heat, are they going to arm our pastors, ministers and rabbis? … Are they going to arm the person wearing the Mickey Mouse costume at Disney? This is what the NRA wants, and we will not stand for it!"

Let me answer that question.

Yes fucker, I want my Rabbi armed.

Anti-Semitic hate crimes shot up 60% in 2017, and anti-Semitic attacks went up 86% in the first three months of the year alone.

An unknown person shoot a shot at a synagogue in Indiana last year.

Back in 2014, a white supremacist engaged in a mass shooting at the Overland Park Jewish Community Center that killed three.

In 1999, there was a similar attack at a Jewish Community Center in Los Angeles.

There is a huge rise in anti-Semitic attacks across Europe, including arson and firebombing of Synagogues, largely (but not solely) caused by Jew hating Muslim migrants.

Next time some fuck yelling “Heil Hilter” opens fire on a Jewish community center or starts stabbing people in a synagogue yelling “kill the Jews” I want the Rabbi to empty a magazine into him.

I’m pretty fucking sure that at least a few of the parishioners at the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs or Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church feel the same way.

The Bible is filled with references to sheep and shepherds.  Jesus said “I am the good shepherd.”  I hear priests and pastors use that sort of language all the time.

Every shepherd and rancher I knew out west had a rifle in their truck, or ATV or horse saddle scabbard to defend their heard against wolves and coyotes.

Well Reverend Shepherd, get yourself a fucking rifle and do your job.

And BTW, Mickey Mouse has guns.  Disney is surrounded by a big fucking fence, the park is filled with security, and they have speed dial for the local SWAT team.  There are few places on this planet with that many people in one location that are as safe as Disney.

I was discussing my last post with my wife.  I tried to simplify my argument to her since she is not a gun person and I wanted her to get what I was trying to say.

I’m going to repeat here what I told her:

The NFA was passed largely as a response to the crime of the roaring 20’s.  Controlling machine guns was obvious because of high profile prohibition gangsters.  Silencers was because supposedly poor people would use them for poaching when the economy went to shit*.

The short barrel rifle and shotgun stuff was because back in the day, handguns were still mostly rare and expensive and far less prevalent than they are today in the hands of most people.  The goverment didn’t want poor and working class people to make concealable guns by cutting down grandpappy’s old farm side-by-side and hiding it under a coat.  Several handgun bans were proposed but they never got passed.  The NFA was a way to stop people from making their own handguns out of the long guns they already own.

Since then, and really in the last 20-30 years, there has been so much change in the gun industry that the NFA is pretty much pointless.  

Handguns are far more common now.  There are guns like bullpups and AR pistols that are the same size as short barrel rifles but are legal that have made the SBR irreverent.  

Today a punk who wants to rob a handy holdup is more likely to get a cheap pistol off the street than saw off grandpa’s double barrel.

That leaves us with a conundrum:

The same argument that a pro gun person can make for getting rid of the NFA, i.e., my AR pistol and Tac 14 are functionally equivalent to an SBR and SBS minus some minor feature so might as well get rid of an obsolete law.

Can be mirrored by an anti gun person to argue to strengthen the NFA, i.e., your AR pistol and Tac 14 are functionally equivalent to an SBR and SBS minus some minor feature so we should ban those too. 

See?

It is a matter of who controls that narrative.  

Right now the anti gun left is angry but stupid.  They are focusing on bump stocks for making stuff functionally equivalent (or close to for a layman) to machine guns in terms of rate of fire.

I fear they are going to realize that AR pistols are pretty much SBR’s with some velcro wrapped around the stock and decide those need to be banned too. 

I don’t want to lose anything, but the ban movement is strong right now.  Fuck if the Gunshine state just passed gun control.  If something is going to be lost, who gets to control what gets lost?  I’d rather that be us and damaged minimized. 

I’m not rolling over for gun control because I’m a pussy.

I have put a lot of effort into building a 11.5 inch 5.56, and a 10 and 12.5 inch 300 AAC AR pistol collection, and a have a Tac 14 on order.

I’d like not to give those up or spend the rest of my life in fuck-me-in-the-ass federal prison.

The best way I think I can prevent that is to stop the Left from poking their stupid, ignorant noses into “almost NFA but not quite” guns.

You can say bump stocks are part of “death by a thousand cuts.”

Imagine legislation that gets passed that says “any firearm with a barrel less than 16 inches that is functionally equivalent to short barrel rifle, has a receiver that is functionally equivalent to a rifle receiver, or is equivalent to an AR, AK, etc… (AWB list) is banned.”

That’s not a thousand cuts, that is a broad sword through our hearts.  Your Remington XP-100 or Thompson Encore is now a felony.

Clearer?

I’m going to jump into this bump stock thing.

To all the gun rights people fighting the bump stock thing, please, from the bottom of my heart, shut the fuck up and let the Feds take bump stocks.

I know, I’m not being nice.  I know I will be accused of being a turn coat on gun rights.

You have no idea what fire you are playing with.

Vice did another good video on bump stocks last year.

I understand all the fine legal distinctions made by the ATF agent and how they came to the decision that they did.

Still, I’m flabbergasted that bump stocks made it past the regulators.

But bump stocks are the least of the NFA fuckery that is going on in the industry right now.

I’m going to refer back to this imaged Miguel posted before.

The Mossberg Shockwave or Remington TAC 14 is a 14 inch barrel with a pistol grip and a serial number change.  That’s the key, its not just the overall length of 26 inches and one RCH, it’s a serial number that is not specific to a shotgun or handgun.

Remington sold 30,000 of those before Christmas.  Thirty-fucking-thousand, in three months.

Then there is everything that comes with an arm brace.

That is more edging around the law when it comes to NFA compliance.

There is an entire world of “how do we get around the NFA without actually violating the NFA” out there.

Bump stocks did that.  Then they got onto the political radar because of Las Vegas.

This is not the first time this happened.  If you went to a gun show in Miami in the 90’s, you would have come across at least two or three tables with a small TV playing this video on a loop.

That was bump fire before the bump fire stock.  Those faded away, partially  because David Koresh outfitted a number of rifles with them, which was part of the whole “semi auto converted to full auto” justification that the ATF used to raid the Branch Davidian compound.

So this shit has been going on for 25 years.

Honestly, I think it is time that the NFA be done away with.  It’s time has passed.  When there is so much stuff that toes the line, it shows how the NFA is obsolete.

Hell, bullpup rifles made the SBR category obsolete.  My 16″ Tavor has the same OAL as my 11.5″ AR pistol, but the Tavor is a rifle and if I put a stock on the AR pistol it’s a felony.  That is dumb a shit.

But here is the way I see it.

Either we can very specifically give up bump fire stocks, which are novelty items for tacticool-retards who like turning valuable ammo into noise…

or

We can let those stupid, evil fuckers on the Left write a bunch of laws that end the entire “skirt the NFA” industry.

Then, well lose not just bump stocks, but arm braces, “26 in OAL smoothbore firearms,” and a whole host of other stuff.

Since serial numbers is all the separates an AR pistol lower from and AR rifle lower, do you want the anti-gunners to decide that any pistol based off a rifle is now an SBR?

Remember in California, the Tauras Judge is illegal for being a short barrel shotgun.  Taurus has sold a lot more Judges and S&W has sold a lot more Governors than all the types bump fire stocks combined.  Do you want California to define short barrel shotguns at the federal level.

If you want to get really technical, Aguila Super Colibri is quieter out of a rifle barrel than nearly all suppressed guns.  It is not a stretch of the imagination for some Kevin de Leon fucker to want to ban “silent ammunition that gets around silencer laws.”

Ask yourself this question: do you really want  the anti-gun Left to take good hard look at the NFA and start asking serious questions about what is legal and what is not?

Forget bump stocks, there goes AR pistols, “smoothbore firearms,” arm braces, and other things sold by the millions.

Or we can give up bump fire stocks.

The choice is shit and shittier.

Some species of lizards will intentionally lose the tips of their tails to avoid being eaten.

It’s not the best option but between giving up the bump fire tip and having the Left to eat us by putting the NFA under the microscope, I’ll lose the tip.

Don’t be the hard ass who says “you can take my bump stock from my cold dead hands” and gets my AR pistol turned into an illegal SBR.

This is the most beautiful and hope giving thing I’ve seen in weeks.

Cardi B is getting into tax policy now.

I have no idea who Cardi B is.  According to the Internet, she’s a former stripper turned rapper.

I’m guessing after making it big last year her accountants told her she had to write a check to the IRS.  Boy was she pissed about that.

Fantastic!

She’s said nothing different than any conservative has ever said. But for that same time conservatives were told that we’re rich white men who should pay our fair share.

Now that it’s a young, ethnic, female rapper saying this, maybe those God damn college kids will listen.

They take all thier other political cues from celebrities.  Maybe if more Kardashian look alikes bitch about thier taxes, we’ll get actual transparency and spending cuts.

A man can dream…
