Under a Gibbous Moon

Hat tip to The Firearm Blog

We all know those people. They think that arcane jargon and meaningless detail is what makes them an expert. Mix this with a healthy dose of self delusion and you get Gecko45.

Warning, if you are particularly allergic to bullshit, don’t click on that link. If you head is sore from frequent face palms don’t click on that either. It is painful enough to make you weep. Personally, I had a hard time getting past buying a IIA vest and then duck taping plates to it.

Hat Tip: Snowflakes in Hell (via The Firearm Blog)

Commenter Mike pointed me to this ad by Opencarry.org in opposition to  California Assembly Bill 1934.

If you live in California go an contact your representative and sign the petition.

In a statement as to why guns are bad, Mayor Richard Daley characterizes firearm owners thusly, ”If you have the right to have 30, 40 or 50 guns and all the ammunition, and you get drunk some weekend, and you’re going to have some fun in the home, you better be careful.”

He then claims to be fighting for the victims of crime at the same time he is working to disarm them. I think James over at Hell in a Handbasket knows plenty of people who would disagree with ole’ King Richard.

California has moved closer to destroying the last vestiges of gun rights to be found in the golden state. In a narrow victory, Assembly Bill 1934 passed the Senate Public Safety Committee, removing one of the last obstacles before it moves to a full vote.

In a complete lapse of common sense, California State Senator thinks that open carry is dangerous because it will all “gang-bangers” to carry weapons. Apparently, he thinks that if open carry is banned, then the criminals will disarm and everything will be roses.

It seems that California is home to the rare, law abiding criminal.
