PawPaw’s House: California Rising!
The state of California is basically auctioning unicorn farts.
Sir, you won the Internets today.:)

Loading the fat .45 ACP rounds into the single stack magazine was easier than the .40 that’s for sure. That or its confirmation bias. I lined up the sights just slightly above the grouping left by the previous occupiers of the lane, and shot. It was, it was like zen you could say.

Damn it…another one lost into the Evil Church of the .45 ACP 🙂
Florida gun range lets customers shoot at each other – ZOMG!
Reuters discovers Airsoft 30 years after its inception. Scares the crap out of them. Exaggerated headline ensues.
Coming next in Reuters: Internet, a passing fad or here to stay? Experts are not sure yet.
Combat City, a Florida gun range, has taken the concept of target practice to a whole new level. Customers can actually engage in simulated combat against other people, shooting real guns at each other.
However, as local affiliate WKMG explains, the customers aren’t using live ammunition. Owner Dave Kaplan gives visitors a choice: He can modify your own gun or you can rent an airsoft gun from the store.

Can you imagine Reuters amazement when they find out that there states that allow citizens to carry guns? They’ll be calling for UN intervention and everything!

Just caught this in their Facebook page:
If instead of trying to come up with an excuse so thin Bob Geldof is ready to have a concert to feed you, just apologize and say you were wrong. You are not there for your ego but for the servicemen and women wounded in battle. This issue has grown so bad so fast I have no idea how you people are gonna make amends.

Stand Your Ground stays standing in Florida.
In a report to the Legislature, the group offered up only minor tweaks to the Stand Your Ground law — including changes that could actually make it easier to claim self-defense after killing someone.
Boy are they pissed! But it had to be this way. I am still amazed at the loads of raving crap spewed by the Antis on this matter, specially the sad use of the Race Card. When you say stuff like “Reports have also shown that the law has had disparate impacts on racial minorities.” in a State heavy with minorities, you better have a way to prove that the law says it has to be applied differently to one group and not another but we know SYG does not say anything like it and if it was misapplied, the fault lies with those who have been complaining the most: Prosecutors & judges.
Here is a silly comparison: Let’s say that a drug company comes out with a new super antibotic called Sygaminicin. This antibiotic is then distributed to doctors & nurses alongside the instructions on how to use it. But some of these doctors and nurse do not like or not care much about Sygaminicin and screw up the dosage, apply it the wrong way, apply it only to those people they like or don’t to people they don’t. It does not take a genius to figure out that the antibiotic is not the one to blame but the morons who refused to follow protocol, did not know the protocol or have it against the medication so they applied it the wrong way on purpose. And to boot these Walking Malpractices go on the offensive and try to blame the medication to cover for their own bias or stupidity.
Stand Your Ground is a protection against prosecutorial misconduct. The problem is that prosecutors think they are not capable of misconduct at all and hate anybody who says otherwise. The claim that criminals are now the ones getting an advantage because they can claim self-defense is idiotic because criminals had always claimed self-defense when they are caught in a deadly force case and they end up going to prison if the prosecutor know what he or she is doing. If they are less than efficient, the fault lies with them and not with the law-abiding citizens that do not need to be treated like John Wayne Gacy as default position because he was forced to use deadly force to defend life.
On secession and citizenship petitions… (UPDATE)
Liberals are going ZOMG about the Petitions for Secession in the White House’s website. I did sign the one for Florida but I do understand that the White House will never abide by it. Think of them as a very polite notice of intent that a great section of US citizens are sick of the s*** from DC.
A counter movement is now afoot: Strip the Citizenship from Everyone who Signed a Petition to Secede and Exile Them. It reads:
“Mr. President, please sign an executive order such that each American citizen who signed a petition from any state to secede from the USA shall have their citizenship stripped and be peacefully deported.”
I had to laugh. This fails in so many levels that I cannot count them all. Executive Order? What is one more in the 60 plus daily coming out of the Administration every day? If I am to be deported, I do want to be sent to the Republic of Texas (Don’t laugh, check your history first.) Here is the even funnier part: I will sneak back as an illegal alien and get all the goodies I cannot get as a Citizen plus send all monies I may make back to Texas to my family. I know I will get a job and be paid well since I’ll be doing the jobs that Liberals do not want to do such as…well just about everything since most of the remaining US “citizens” will be on some sort of welfare and depending from the Government.
I call that a WIN.
UPDATE: As of 5;40pm Florida got the necessary signatures so the White House can officially ignore our request for secession.
