The War on Guns catches the media flounting the same garbage about Mexican drug cartels getting class III weapons like machine guns from gun shows. The FN FiveSeveN hysteria is bunk too.
At least they're not getting any more Super Pistols, or things could really get out of hand.
Update: A Keyboard and a .45 has more.

Brady Camp's lies
Over at Armed Canadian, this post details how the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Ownership lies through their teeth about the facts. Found via Says Uncle.
Read it, you won't be disappointed.

I'm home
I got back home from travel last night. My mental clock is severely screwed up, but my blogging should return to normal here shortly.

Nice cache ya got there!
So the scumbag who went on a stabbing spree after crashing into a crowd of people with a rented truck in Japan had a "cache" of knives:
So does that mean that if I buy several cars, and I use one to plow into a crowd to cause as much death as I can, that I would have purchased a "cache of motor vehicles?" It would seem that the truck was pretty much as lethal as the knives:
TOKYO - Investigators searching the apartment of the suspect in a bloody Tokyo rampage found evidence Tuesday he bought a small cache of knives and other weapons just before the assault, police said.

As I've said before, guns do not enable mass killing. The mind of a scumbag is all that is needed.Three people were killed by the impact of the truck, four died from stab wounds and another 10 were injured, police said. Kato, blood spattered on his face and clothes, was arrested on the spot.

Disregard my last
There will be a movie guns this week on Sunday because of my oversight in regards to the bureaucratic mess that the US government has made with overseas travel.
Yay incompetence!
Yay incompetence!

No Movie Guns this week
I am not within 7,000 miles of my home computer at this moment. The next two weeks don't look good either.
I apologize for this, and I promise to make it up when I return.

DC's unconstitutional-do-nothing-blockade not working
Crazy! I mean, you would think that stopping people from moving freely about a city would stop murderous gangbangers in their tracks. How frightening!
I guess if Chief Lanier wants to take it to the next step, she would need to show these guys how she makes her power trip.
Or maybe try some diplomacy, since that is bound to work on those of such esteemed virtue.
Not working? How about a conference?
Seriously. What's it gonna take to get through to these jackasses? Tons of cops? Being super close to the crime? Door-to-door searches?
Damnit!!

"It is the hard heart that kills" - R. Lee Ermey
Japan has its fair share of scumbags just like we do.
A Japanese mutant kills seven people with a knife because he was "tired of living." Why these people can't be satisfied to just off themselves is beyond logic.
As many have said before me, trying to stop behaviour like this by controlling the weapon is an exercise in futility. There is no sure fire way to stop spree killers, and the only person who is immediately there to do something about it is yourself. Waiting for the cops to arrive is not going to stop this:
He is in police custody. I'm not sure how tough Japan is on criminals, and they have ensured that there will be no resistance to killers like this douchebag, but let's hope he gets what he deserves.

"I'll crash my vehicle into people and if the vehicle becomes useless, I'll get out a knife. Goodbye everyone!" said one posting hours before the crime, as quoted by Japanese media.
On Sunday, he drove a rented two-tonne truck some 100 kilometres (60 miles) from the town of Susano to Tokyo, swerving the vehicle into pedestrians before bursting out and stabbing at random with a survival knife.
He is in police custody. I'm not sure how tough Japan is on criminals, and they have ensured that there will be no resistance to killers like this douchebag, but let's hope he gets what he deserves.
Too close to home
Tragedy has struck in my home town. Fredericksburg Police Officer Todd Bahr was killed in the line of duty by a scumbag at an apartment complex a few miles from my house.
My prayers go out to his family.
A few weeks ago I was thinking about how fortunate it was that a cop has not been killed for such a long time in my area. I'll keep such thoughts suppressed from now on.

DC roundup
The Agitator has a roundup of all of the tomfoolery that DC officials are using to destroy their constituents rights.

Media, DA not holding scumbags accountable
The headline reads "DA: Debt, Sex Drove Entwistle To Kill Family;" I disagree.
I say that an impotent piece of shit killed his wife outright, and should hang for it. Why the DA thinks that because this guy couldn't get it up with his wife, that that's somehow the reason for killing her. To murder someone, especially someone you supposedly love, for little or no reason is a surefire sign that not all of your dogs are barkin, as the expression goes. This guy is crazy. Period.
If there's enough evidence, then kill him, or at least put him in a box for the rest of his life.
Still, you've gotta see the irony of a Brit coming to Massachusetts and killing his wife with a handgun. Don't they have laws to stop things like this?

Armed self defense works
In Phoenix, a homeowner kills an armed intruder with a rifle; the rest of the intruders fled.
No word on why the intruder didn't simply disarm the homeowner.

Felons can get guns? Weird!
This idiot got caught.
Letting a 6 year old handle an unloaded firearm may scare some people - pointing it at a camera is not a great idea - but I don't see that it's such a big deal. Educating youth about firearms is important. As for him being a felon, that could mean just about anything, however, the article does say that he has a long criminal history, so he doesn't sound like the best guy in the world. He also had the dreaded "SKS assault rifle." The media wouldn't know an assault rifle if it bit them on the ass.
This is the trash that the media peddles to make gun owners look bad, despite the fact that he shouldn't have owned firearms in the first place.

More crossbow killings
This might be the start of a trend considering a man killed his wife with a crossbow in VA Beach earlier this week.
Check out the evil picture at the bottom. We will probably hear about "crossbow registration" here shortly.
