A poor convicted felon is suing his intended victim for allegedly “roughed him up.” Michael Dupree is seeking damages for being stopped at gun point & handcuffed during a citizens arrest after Mr. Dupree broke into a van and stole a bicycle while under the effects of colombian pixie dust.

Pictured above is Mr. Dupree whose record is just quite exemplary.  Besides having his jolies with minors back in the day, he also served a stint for illegally carrying a firearm by a felon. If anything this is one more example that criminals (and the Brady Bunch) hate civilian ownership of firearms. Birds of a feather and stuff like that.

The Jackass who broke into a Ft Lauderdale church and used the crucifix to pop open the poor box was caught.

Forty eight year George Horn is now resting in Broward County jail on the felony count. The first of his two judgments should be coming soon. The other one is for whenever He decides.

Louisiana’s Catholic bishops have decided that Gun Owners that have a Concealed Weapons Permit cannot attend Mass if they have their sidearm with them By hiding behind the law, Louisiana’s Catholics who believe in the defense of their lives and the lives of their family and friends are barred entrance to the churches. Priest molesting kids are still allowed.

“We don’t think it is appropriate to have guns in churches,” said Danny Loar, executive director of the Louisiana Conference of Catholic Bishops.

Neither do criminals. But how does the  Louisiana’s Catholic bishops reconcile their decision against the Catechism of the Catholic Church?

Love toward oneself remains a fundamental principle of morality. Therefore it is legitimate to insist on respect for one’s own right to life. Someone who defends his life is not guilty of murder even if he is forced to deal his aggressor a lethal blow. (Catechism of the Catholic Church)

The Weasels in Purple (Bishops for those who are catholic impaired) have no qualms in tossing the basic tenets of the Catholic Church aside. We’re the Flock but some of us are not sheep. It is NOT against the doctrine of the Holy Church to have guns or defend ourselves even many a priest keep trying to sell the concept of Victim as Morally  Superior.

Legitimate defense can be not only a right but a grave duty for one who is responsible for the lives of others. The defense of the common good requires that an unjust aggressor be rendered unable to cause harm. (Catechism of the Catholic Church)

As a Catholic, I keep myself reminding that the Church is bigger that any of those morons in colorful cassocks, but I do wish Archangel Michael would come down and do a a number on these pederast-friendly, demonic assholes that seem to be running our church.

UPDATE: Sharp as a Marble wrongly brings out the point of Private Property. Although he has a point from the “legal” standpoint, the edifice does not belong to whatever corporation/LLC or whatever legal entity it might be registered, it is still the House of God where all of His Children have the Divine Right to come in and worship. Nowhere in the Bible or Catechism it says you have to meet certain criteria imposed by a mortal in order to gain entrance in the church. The worst of Sinners can come in, partake of Mass, seek redemption and be with God. No religion is set aside; you can be a Protestant, Muslim, Jew, Animist or no religion at all and still are welcome. Yet the Weasels in Purple say that I am not allowed to go inside carrying my pistol and treat me like I am the Anti Christ to legally cover their NAMBLA asses?

Bullshit.

Seriously, if you buy a frigging gun, have a professional instructor teach you how to operate the damn thing. A friend that thinks he knows how to handle a gun because he plays a lot of Modern Warfare might not be the best on to teach you.

The gun slipped out of his hand, and when he went to grab it, he grabbed it by the trigger, and it shot his finger and my son’s leg,” said Gonzalez.

I just hate seeing so much stupidity.

At work there is the young feller that walks with a dark cloud on top of him. In the few months I have know him, at least three of his “homeboys” have been killed by unsavory characters. Of course they’ve been hanging around with the wrong crowds which might be a reason why they end up in the Miami-Dade Slab Room. It bothered me that there was an element of pride in the fact that they were vitims, a stupid badge of honor if you ask me. They took the chances, they paid dearly for a lifestyle without sense, there is no pride, no honor in that mentality. They are just dead in the most stupid way.

I made the comment that I should stay away from him since people next to him were dropping like flies. He took a bit of exception to my comment:”My homeboys are dying and youse making jokes? What if they were your homeboys?” Before I could engage the safety, my mouth opened up: “My homeboys are not stupid and can shoot good. And a lot.”

Dark Cloud ain’t talking to me.  Oh well!

Saw this article on Al Qaeda’s Fantasy Ideology via Tam and it so also defines Internet Commandos and the “warriors” of the Low Fat Battalion.

And what it did for him was to provide him with a fantasy — a fantasy, namely, of taking part in the revolutionary struggle of the oppressed against their oppressors. By participating in a violent anti-war demonstration, he was in no sense aiming at coercing conformity with his view — for that would still have been a political objective. Instead, he took his part in order to confirm his ideological fantasy of marching on the right side of history, of feeling himself among the elect few who stood with the angels of historical inevitability. Thus, when he lay down in front of hapless commuters on the bridges over the Potomac, he had no interest in changing the minds of these commuters, no concern over whether they became angry at the protesters or not. They were there merely as props, as so many supernumeraries in his private psychodrama. The protest for him was not politics, but theater; and the significance of his role lay not in the political ends his actions might achieve, but rather in their symbolic value as ritual. In short, he was acting out a fantasy.

Ouch….

Not Safe For Work or conductive to a good digestion.

Welcome to Miami’s Trail Glade range, the new Gansta Paradise. I am fuming 5 kinds of color smoke over the irresponsibility of the Range Master or whoever was stupid enough not to stop this video while on the making.

No, it is not that I disagree with the Right of the Tattooed Morons to Free Speech through Rap, but the insanity of the piss poor weapons handling and lack of Gun Safety both inside the range and the parking lot is appalling. This is a range that just recently finished a first phase multi million dollar renovation after almost a decade of lobbying by all shooting clubs of the area (we are still waiting for shooting bays for the Action Shooting Sports) and it is not good for the image of Miami-Dade County and the Shooting community in general that this range does not practice or enforce Gun Safety.

I’ve been told that some employees of the Range are somewhat nervous that the video hit Youtube. That tells me that the level of brain power running Trail Glades is not very high because everything video ends up in Youtube in these days of that thing called the Internet. Afraid for their jobs in this bad economic times? I am more afraid that the range I visit regularly is not safe for my fellow shooters and myself.

If you are a shooter live in the Tetra-County area (or even if you are just a pissed off fellow shooter), you may want to contact Miami Dade Country Parks & Recreation and leave a piece of your mind.  I already did and then some.
