Weekend Wildlife

Most of the herd has moved on. Last weekend there was a whopping one photo of an empty field. This week only had a few.

Is this thing even on?

One of only two does that seem to have stuck around.

'Spike' is still hanging around as well.

"Hi-Cap" Magazine Ban 'Logic'

Regular citizens are not trained and are poor shots so they only need a limited of rounds to protect themselves.

The police need to shoot as many people as possible as quickly as possible so they need as much ammo as possible because they are highly trained professionals.

Huh?

They Should Ask Themselves Why..

The President of the Joyce Foundation , the group that provides the funding for the majority of gun control in the US laments:
Over the past decade, I have watched gun-violence prevention fade from philanthropy’s agenda.
There's a reason for that. It's because 'gun control', as they portray it, has no effect on crime. Crime was at its highest during the heyday of passing more, useless legislation while it decreased when this legislation went away and more progressive laws were enacted.

Causality? No.

But most groups realized that dumping $145K into he likes of Josh Sugarmann's pockets each year got them nothing but poorly written Huffpo screeds and 'reports' using Google searches.

The Joyce's realize that and are worried that they'll just keep dumping money into that pit so they'll use the Tucson shooting as long as they can before the media moves on to the next Lady Gaga outfit.

Avoiding the Question 'Why?

Our flavor of the day asked for some stats on crime rates in Canada and Illinois when it was pointed out that firearm crime rates decreased in proportion to overall crime rates in Canada and Chicago has 5x the murder rate of the rest of the state of Illinois, especially focused in certain neighborhoods.

I asked "So did firearm laws cause a decrease in non-firearm crimes?" and "Why does Chicago boast a 5x higher homicide rate than the rest of the state?"

Well the first question was completely ignored. His response to the second was:
Chicago has been a particularly violent city. But the guns used in crime there have been traced back to sources outside of Chicago and into neighboring states. Weaker regulation in those areas is the real downfall of Chicago, making ineffective the strict gun laws there (not as strict now, of course). It'll be interesting to follow the statistics following the recent legal changes there.
Yep, it's all the gun's fault. Apparently they have some sort of mind control that particularly effects Chicago residents in comparison to the rest of the residents of the state where firearms are legal and common.

So I asked again. Why is there such a disparity? What makes Chicago so violent they need to smuggle in guns? Let's see if we get an answer or it it's avoided again.

Reports are CA Ammo Ban Ruled Unconstitutional in Court!!!

COURT GRANTS NRA / CRPA FOUNDATION MOTION, INVALIDATES UNCONSTITUTIONAL AMMUNITION REGULATION STATUTE THAT WOULD HAVE BANNED MAIL ORDER AMMO SALES & REQUIRED AMMO SALES REGISTRATION

In a dramatic ruling giving gun owners a win in an National Rifle Association / California Rifle and Pistol (CRPA) Foundation lawsuit, this morning Fresno Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Hamilton ruled that AB 962, the hotly contested statute that would have banned mail order ammunition sales and required all purchases of so called “handgun ammunition” to be registered, was unconstitutionally vague on its face. The Court enjoined enforcement of the statute, so mail order ammunition sales to California can continue unabated, and ammunition sales need not be registered under the law....

Hopefully this is true.

UPDATE: CalGunLaws is reporting it as factual.

UnPossible School Shooting

By a 10th Grade (alleged) gang banger in Los Angeles. Had a gun in his backpack and dropped the pack causing the gun to fire.

Good thing California has all those strict gun laws and is #1/A rated by gun control groups. Obviously this story is made up

Yeah, Illinois Will Be Last

SayUncle reports that Wisconsin is likely to pass concealed carry soon after the new batch of politicians get their seats warm.

In Illinois, the Chicago Machine still controls the head positions in the Legislature and Quinn remains Governor.

Even w/ numerous CCW bills and other pro-rights legislation already hitting the floor, I don't see it happening.
