What Did You Think Was Going To Happen?




Biden, NRA, meet on gun control; NRA sticks to staunchly anti-gun control stance




Why would you even invite these people to the table?
If you were convening a task force to discuss fighting organized crime, would you invite a representative from the Gambino family?
Would you invite NAMBLA to brainstorm ideas about reducing sex crimes?

Why would you pretend that these dirtbag lunatics have any shred of credibility?

This story is not what we're talking about.




Mom who shot intruder inspires gun control foes


I know, I know. The gun-humpers are going to use this story to illustrate why there should be no gun-control legislation or regulation and everyone should always be armed at all times and in all places and blah blah blah. But this is NOT what we're talking about!

No one (okay, almost no one) is saying that law-abiding citizens should not be allowed to own guns for personal protection. What we're saying is that there's no reason to allow civilians to own military-grade assault weaponry. We're saying that there is no need to allow magazines that hold 30 rounds, or guns that spray dozens of bullets in seconds, or cop-killer bullets, etc. And we're saying that reasonable regulations ought to be in place to keep lunatics from owning guns, or people with criminal backgrounds, or people who are on the Goddamm TERRORIST WATCH LIST, all of which the NRA and their fellow massacre-enablers firmly oppose.

That's what we're talking about, and no matter how many housewives shoot how many intruders (and good on her, by the way) that doesn't change the need for sensible gun laws.

It's a totally false choice that the NRA types like to perpetuate, that either every nut gets to own whatever machine gun he wants or jack-booted guv'mint thugs kickin' down yer door ta take yer gurns!!!!
It's bullshit, and they know it. We had an assault weapons ban for years, and it didn't prevent any moms from shooting intruders with pistols.

The More Guns You Have, the Safer You Are!


Keith Ratliff of Carnesville, GA was shot to death in his home on January 3.

For those of you who don't frequent the FPSRussia Firearms channel on YouTube, this is Keith Ratliff:



So is this:



And this:



So how is it that this good guy with a gun was unable to avoid being murdered by a bad guy with a gun?  Surely, someone must have taken his guns away! (the UN? probably.)

Well, let's ask Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent Mike Ayers.

Ayers said there were many guns found near Ratliff's body, but said those weapons were not involved in the killing. He said authorities are "actively interviewing people and seeking leads" 


Oh. So I guess he didn't have enough guns? Because having guns makes people safe, right?

Geezus, the Balls on These Guys!



AIG Says $182 Billion Taxpayer Bailout Was Too ‘Onerous,’ Threatens To Sue Government For Billions More


I wish I was in a position to need to buy something from AIG so I could refuse to buy anything from AIG.


The board of A.I.G. will meet on Wednesday to consider joining a $25 billion shareholder lawsuit against the government, court records show. The lawsuit does not argue that government help was not needed. It contends that the onerous nature of the rescue — the taking of what became a 92 percent stake in the company, the deal’s high interest rates and the funneling of billions to the insurer’s Wall Street clients — deprived shareholders of tens of billions of dollars and violated the Fifth Amendment, which prohibits the taking of private property for “public use, without just compensation.” 

And they still have the balls to run those sickening "Thank You, America" ads!
