Shot of the Day

I'm a mediocre shooter at best so when I make a good shot (for me), I'm going to brag about it.

NDM-86 (Dragunov) at 25yrds supported. I'll never be a sniper but I'm pleased.

Called It. NG(V)AC Reasoned Discourse Kicks In.

As I noted yesterday, Elliot Fineman's NG(V)AC tried to put on their big boy panties but fell down trying to do both legs at the same time

They put up a nasty blog post called 'NRA-Hole of the week', this one focusing on IL State Rep Brandon Phelps who helped author the CCW bill, trying to appeal to the only people who pay attention to gun control when it's not in the news, the mouth foaming fanatics. As they tried stuffing their leg through the hole again, this is how they defended it:
We're not worried about keeping things "Classy" or even being politically correct. You gun-nuts are doing a fine job pleading your own case. Keep it up guys. We appreciate letting the public know exactly HOW mis-informed many people are and your paranoid rhetoric only helps others raise their awareness.
Well, as of about 1pm 7/12, the blog post on their site seems to have been taken down, giving a 404 Page not found error.  Whomever is running the FB page has also played the 'avoid any questions by changing the subject' game and has so far stopped responding when their stale talking points were called out. 

Screencaps below and at GSL who emphasize their delusional statement that 'Chicago has no gun laws'.

AHOY!! Reasoned Discourse Ahead Me Mateys!!! Update

No idea why the title. Maybe because I just ate Long John Silvers. 

Seems Elliot Fineman of the NGAC has conned some poor shlub into running their FB site and the individual either:

1) Doesn't know that interacting w/ us makes them look like idiots and gives us lots of soundbytes/blogfodder (see below)

and/or

2) got tired of us using the site as our own personal pro-gun source visa-vie the old Brady Campaign blog.

Either way, it was fun.  They started out w/ this:
Well that can't be right.  The NGAC has specifically stated 'There's no such thing as a law abiding citizen'.  So I ask them why the policy change.  I also educate them on what the NGAC endorses along w/ 'background checks'. Their response is both odd and typical.
Now the stereotypical character attacks I understand, it's all they really have (no comments about my genitalia however) but the rest of it is just rambling.  My 'conclusions' of the NGAC were formed many moons ago when they first started their incoherent posts. So I did what any good pro-rights blogger would do and posted links w/ screencaps proving every statement I made. You know. Those darn facts. The response? 
Now that's an interesting comment.  Especially since, according to my traffic logs, this person didn't view a single one of the links which showed the truth.  So I asked again about their policy shift.  The response that time was entirely predictable:
So soon I predict we'll see either:

A) Lots of pro-rights comments being deleted/banned

or

B) Skippy getting tired of having his/her ass handed to them and quietly disappear, leaving their page in our hands again.

Update:  NGAC goes the route of CSGV et al by keeping it class.  Take a look at their new 'series':

 nra-hole_v3z

Their response to Illinois finally joining the other 49 states in passing Concealed Carry. How can I get on their list?

And it gets even better. Apparently city-folk are part of a 'hive' filled w/ 'wrong' people that need to be controlled.  Think I'm kidding?

Eco-Terrorists vs Hired Paramilitaries

So a mining company in Wisconsin is doing test drilling. Protesters don't like it so..well.. protest.  Some  eco nuts decide to up the ante, start vandalizing the site and threatening the lives/homes of workers. Company then hires an armed security company from AZ, knowing that groups like ELF have cause millions of dollars in damage in the past. People really go nuts after that.

How do the anti-gunners spin it?* 
Masked Semi-Automatic Rifle-Toting Paramilitary Unit Targets Environmental Protesters at Wisconsin Mining Site
No direct mention of the threats made or damage done by the eco-terrorists (also masked btw), only comparisons of the security to South American death squads.  So I guess it's ok to threaten/attack employees of a company you don't like but it's not ok for them to defend themselves.  Really tells you where his priorities lie. 

* Indirect link. I'm not giving him any traffic. The writer of this piece if a former Joyce Foundation mouthpiece who closed up his site (called The Gun Guys) when the money dried up.

Elliot Fineman/NG(V)AC: Mental Health History 'Meaningless' for Background Checks


So we can present this as the formal position of the NG(V)AC when other anti-gun groups push for mental health records to be included. Especially since much of the board is made up of board members from other organizations.

Works for me.

Gun Crime in Nevada

A used Glock for $950?  That is a crime.  Everything else is ambiguous.

The cop showed good judgement in asking if he had ever committed a crime. However he did not reveal he was under the protective custody of his parents and had been in a mental institution for suicide. He had been under a 'Legal 2000' hold for 72 hr evaluation which may or may not have shown up in records. No mention if he was involuntarily committed after that. Since his parents had control of him, what was he doing out at 4am? 

So really, articles like this are just misinformation and fear-mongering.  'could', 'should have', are not words that should appear unless the writers are either sloppy or just trying to score points by misleading the public.

The Ms.Magazine Train Wreck To Continue?

 A few weeks ago, Brady Campaign Chairthing Heidi Yewman posted an article in Ms. Magazine about how stupid she is. 

Well they pulled the series because of the influx of comments, some putting up her home address (which is supported by most anti-gun advocates in the case of firearm owners/CCW BTW), and causing them to cancel the series.

According to a statement released today, Ms. Magazine is asking Yewman to continue it on their site.  I really hope they do. These articles can only go to help pro-firearm rights by showing the deliberate ignorance of anti-gun activists even in the face of all the opportunities for education. The simplest being the manual that comes w/ the gun that Yewman bought.

Why Are Gun Control Fanatics So Violent? Part 673

Found on a site attacking Oleg Volk for supporting self defense against homophobia comes this gem (language alert):

The NRA Is The Face of American Fascism

nraThe NRA is garbage. It’s members are fascist liars.They rape, destroy and distort the US Constitution.
They have to be defeated with a comprehensive National Gun Control Program that even Justice Scalia accepts as normal, rational and permissible under the Constitution.
The NRA is a Lobbying Organization whose main objective is to allow the free flow of arms traffic and sales to take place in the SA. They are shitting on the US Constitution and allowing countless Americans to needlessly die every day of every year.
Every member of Congress who votes to support the NRA, votes to support the cold-blooded murder of Americans for no reason and with no punishment. Kelly Ayote, I’m talking talking to you, pathetic piece of lying scum, They are as degenerate and as full of shit as the NRA. If the NRA and Congress loved the USA, they would try to improve instead of letting rednecked fascists run all over the land with assault weapons to kill children in American schools. They have such a lack of balls that they will not publish Newton murder scene photos publicly. If they did, there would be an American National Gun Act overnight.
Stop the NRA. Protect children. Not Guns. More Guns. More death. More Fascism.
Hmmm... Fascism.  How 1970's liberal arts major. I thought the current attack de jour was 'racist'?  But I digress.  The comments are fun too:
NRA American Fascists says :
NRA Cocksuckers are the worst piece of shit America has to offer the world. They recklessly kill Americans with their fascist ideology. If you’re not against the NRA, you’re for it and they want to shoot you dead and shit down your throat.
And they call me paranoid for wanting to be armed.  They provide a reason. This is pure hate.  Nothing but.
