I was just watching the noon news from our local Yellow Journalism TV Rag and noticed the gun and the cartridges…

And no, I doubt pretty much that the guy/gal in charge of graphics knows about the Coonan. At least they did not call it an AK-47.

When we actually need a law that protects good people from being sued by those who need help during an emergency situation like after a Hurricane.

15  Section 1. Section 252.515, Florida Statutes, is created to
   16  read:
   17 252.515 Postdisaster Relief Assistance Act; immunity from
   18 civil liability.—
   19 (1) This section may be cited as the “Postdisaster Relief
   20 Assistance Act.”
   21 (2) Any person who gratuitously and in good faith provides
   22 temporary housing, food, water, or electricity to emergency
   23 first responders or the immediate family members of emergency
   24 first responders in response to an emergency situation related
   25 to and arising out of a public health emergency declared
   26 pursuant to s. 381.00315 or a state of emergency declared
   27 pursuant to s. 252.36 may not be held liable for any civil
   28 damages as a result of providing the temporary housing, food,
   29 water, or electricity unless the person acts in a manner that
   30 demonstrates a reckless disregard for the consequences of
   31 another.

Our dear friends and lovers of humanity are at it again. They adorned the word justifiable and give it the air of immorality and illegality. They link this article authored by Mark Bowes where he craftily poopooes civilians and LEOs defending themselves and killing the criminals. You see, unless you are a criminal, you have no right to kill anybody in self defense. That the people that defended themselves might have become corpses is irrelevant: you are better off dead from a moral standpoint and for CSGV Fund-Raising and Power-Acquisition purposes.

CSGV every day sound more and more like those local groups that defend Muslim Terrorist by trying to place the blame of their alleged grievances on the US.

Apparently this kind of madness happened all over the country. The guy in the Mercedes had just shot somebody and the MBPD did a ballistic Maaco on the car and sent the perp to a cold slab of the morgue.

In order to avoid idiocy like this next year and bring more business to Miami Beach, I propose that alongside the “Urban Festival” we should have a Shooters Memorial Day Weekend where every other hotel hosts one gun company or Shooting Discipline, Armorers’ classes in every corner, reloading workshops, Knife fighting demonstrations by the likes of Steve Tarani, etc.

I am betting on a very nice and peaceful weekend.

Romeo Tango Bravo started the The Post Maker a.k.a. Where The Magic Happens Meme and as usual I am a bit behind the times.

Allowing for good weather, this is where I like to blog the most. Right now is 84 degrees with a 5 to 7 mph breeze that is keeping the mosquitoes away and the humidity low. The other place is my desk, but it is an embarrassing mess that shall not be photographed.

Damn it….the lawn needs mowing bad.

Well, I wish I could give you an After Action Report, but we were summarily expelled from the range and Markham Park altogether. We were told “We’ll call you when it is time for you guys to clean up.”

So about the only After Action Report I can give you is the Evicted Husbands/Boyfriends/Others Lunch at Antonino’s while waiting for the Ladies to be done.

I ate enough garlic bread to kill the whole cast of Twilight with one burp. The toasted Salami and Swiss was so-so. I don’t drink but apparently the beer was frozen-like and so was the Coke.

One of the few pics I was able to get of the class before knitting needles were impaled in me rear end.

The Classroom Part in full swing. 34 Ladies in total. I snuck in to take this pic and was given 34 “evil eye” stares. Whatever hair I had left on my head fell off.

Markham Park Range has a Lightning Alarm system with a very loud siren. You are not allowed to wander out and shoot from under cover if it goes off and you are not allowed to shoot under the cover either. A storm cell went by too near so the shooting time was cut in half but still shooting got done.
New Shooter Caitlin and Instructor Wafta Hallum celebrating. Check out the darned groups!

Overall conclusion: Women do want to shoot. Just not with us males. We set our sights for 20 ladies max, expected 12 and were avalanched by 34 just because our instructors were female and guys were not allowed anywhere near. My wife told me that at least 5 more ladies did not make it because of previous engagements (Memorial Day Weekend celebrations out of town) and one young lady was taking some sort of school test that day.

So, I’d say the class was a success and we guys had nothing to do with it. 🙂

PS: Apparently some enterprising soul lent my wife a 1911. Take a wild guess what am I supposed to get her as a gift?
