Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Climate Warriors or the cult of stupid.

They are pouring car oil on an electric truck.

Electric.

They are the idiots of Extinction Rebellion, the ones we have seen in UK and other places in Europe sitting on streets and gluing themselves to the pavement. They are fully here now.

This should be fun.

 

Notice to Illegal Venezuelans

Dear “Panas” (Buddies): Please remember you are no longer in Venezuela. There is not one law covering the US, but every state has its own variation of laws that makes them unique. And while in California or New York you could get away with “invading” somebody’s property and the claiming it as yours, in Texas, Florida, Tennessee and other states, you can get shot for your stupid ignorance of how shit goes here and paying attention at some idiot in Instagram telling you to squat.

Para resumir (To summarize): You invade, we shoot.

You wanna play that game? Fine.

 

Refuse to show ID? I would call the local constables and inform that armed men claiming to be FBI are in front of my house harassing me. Make sure I give them make model and license tag of the vehicle in case the “FBI” leaves before cops arrive. Then go back in the house and wait for the fun to begin.

“Link Arms for Change”: Covenant Anniversary “remembrance” went Meh.

I work that area a lot and I was dreading to be there on Wednesday. Vandy Hospital is in its apparently eternal phase of construction and the area itself has grown to stupid levels, but the roads have not and simply cannot. Traffic is a burden regularly and these morons planned their show during rush hour.

I was happy to have to go out of town, so when I got home the next, I checked local TV websites for the coverage… and it was rather dull and not quite front-page news.  About the only comments I heard from the locals were about annoyance they suffered, but not even that great.

So, it seems it was a certified bust.

In other news, the shooter’s manifesto still has not been released.

I wonder why.

Tax Free Guns in TN.

I have no idea how come Liberal Democrats and Media are not having attacks of agita about this bill.

HB 2854 by Hill (R)

Firearms and Ammunition – As introduced, exempts the retail sale of firearms that have a barrel less than an internal diameter of .50 caliber and shotguns of 10 gauge or greater from the sales and use tax. – Amends TCA Title 67, Chapter 6, Part 3.

So far it is advancing through the legislative hoops. There is hope.

PPK: A fair assessment.

A Mad Oger Bon Mott.

A PPK in .32 ACP was my first carry gun. It was the only thing I could afford when I got my permit in Venezuela and that was because it was my Dad’s and he carried maybe twice in his life before shoving it in some drawer.

Even in .32 ACP, it barks bad and if your hands are not skeletal, you will sport a slide bite more than once. The trigger is simply atrocious in double action and barely passable in single action.  But also, the principle of a bad gun is better than no gun applied: It saved my bacon more than once.

I could not bring it with me when we moved to the States and Mom gave it to a friend of ours who was a cop and could take care (or ignore altogether) the legal bullshit of the registration transfer. And other than the fact it belonged to Dad, I had very little remorse about not being able to keep it.
