Reasoned Discourse (language, graphic image alert)

A troll who has a problem w/ kids using firearms while heavily monitored and supervised drops some foul language on the ISRA FB page, causing his posts to be removed.  Instead of rewriting them sans 'F*bomb', he responded w/ this eloquent missive:

 Isn't that just special?  No wonder he's anti-gun if he's this unstable but that's nothing. Take a look at some of his 'cover photos':
 





Yeah. That;s 'LOL". Just think of the mental disconnect it must take to attack firearm owners for 'Arming Toddlers" while posting pictures like this as your public face.  And they wonder why we want to be armed. Maybe he'll get hired to be a spokesman for the "Protect All Women" campaign.

Protecting "Some" Women

Giffords/Kelly only want solutions that disarm women and make them dependent upon the system for their protection. Anything that actually empowers women?  Not welcome.

The tour is called “Protecting All Women” yet when women who aren’t far left wing gun grabbers attempted to sit in on the meeting, they were asked to leave. Not only was the whereabouts of the meeting not announced until this morning but when the location was discovered and women who are for 2nd Amendment rights wanted to simply listen in on the conversation, they were kicked out of the meeting.

So the kicked women out of a 'Protecting ALL Women' meeting. 

Does anything more to be said about their motivations?

Everything That Needs To Be Said About The Illinois Elections

Via 2CC:

Obama's second trip this month. Michelle stopping by. Both Clintons and Biden? Quinn must be running behind or Rauner is surging in the polls. It would be highly embarrassing to have a Republican elected in Obama's home state, but this desperation really makes us wonder what the pollsters and media have been hiding.
Quinn looked horrible in the debates. He has to import out-of-state shooting victims to push his anti-gun platform. Durbin hasn't been hammered nearly enough for comparing US troops to nazis. Obama is an anchor on every national and state race. And you've got Quinn trolls all over state worker websites (and our comment section) trying to use scare tactics to push the vote. Things must be grim.

Malevolence or Incompetence?

So the MSM is showing video footage of an Ebola patient being loaded onto a plane.  Here's a screenshot:

See anything wrong w/ this picture? 

Now this isn't from some 'Tea Party', Right Wing, Anti-Obama, racist news source (sarcasm intended), this is from NBC.

From some of the stories I'm hearing about the decom units, the outright incompetence is amazing. Things like them taking off their gloves and then removing their suits w/ their bare hands. 

So what is the story behind this?  Are there no rules for plainclothes people coming into contact w/ contaminated suits?  Or is this guy just a freaking moron and broke a bunch of procedures?

The Gov't Lied, People Died. Next Up: Water is Wet

So the Pentagon et al hid information that there actually were thousands of chemical and biological weapons still active in Iraq.  They ordered soldiers to lie about what they found and refused treatment on those who were injured by them. These weapons are now falling into the hands of the latest terrorist organization to rise up in the face of America's confused and ineffective foreign 'policy'.

And there are people who still want to give the Gov't more power to control our lives. 

Does this make any sense at all?

What Generates Protests in St. Louis

A gang-banging, violent, criminal thug.  No national outcry by the dozens of 'teenagers'/'children' killed each year in the city by fellow residents.  This whole thing is to keep the race baiters employed.

Gun Free Zones at Work in IL

Via GSL:

(Daily Illini) - Four incidents of mob action, battery and strong armed robbery that occurred in the early morning hours Saturday caused the University Police Department to issue a public safety advisory.

The four incidents occurred between 3:30 a.m. and 4:10 a.m.  The five victims were walking in the campus area and were battered by a group of six to eight men for seemingly no reason, according to the advisory.

More of that 'Chicago Culture'  coming down to visit the educational communities. When pounding on people gets boring, they'll upgrade to sexual assault and homicide. 

Good thing they're not allowed guns.

Two Teenage Female Shooters: A Comparison

One 14, the other 15.  Both excel in school.  Both given a gun by an adult family member.  Two completely different 'gun cultures'.

Here is the first one, armed w/ a high capacity assault weapon and an arsenal of other dangerous weapons of war:

Her name is Katelyn Francis, a 15yr old competitive 3-gun shooter. She has over 116K likes on her FB page and is also involved in several charitable issues outside of having a regular teenage social life. 

Then there's this 14 yr old from Chicago:

NEW CITY — An argument over a boy turned deadly Monday when a 14-year-old girl fatally shot another 14-year-old in New City, family and police said.
The 14-year-old shooter has been charged with first-degree murder, police said. The alleged shooter's identity is being withheld because she's a minor.

Her support from family and friends?

 A 17-year-old boy was later charged with helping the shooter hide the weapon, which was reported stolen on April 14, police announced. The shooter's uncle, 25-year-old Donnell Flora, was charged with giving his niece the gun and accompanying her to the fight.

Her FB page?

“Bout to beat some a--” the girl tweeted about two hours before the fatal confrontation. She also posted a photo on Facebook of herself sticking out her tongue and holding up her middle finger. The photo was captioned: “I Don't Chase Em ' I RePlace 'Em.”

One can see which girl was directly involved w/ the 'Gun Lobby'.  Which one would you support?

9mm PMC Ammo Test via AmmoEasy

I was asked by an online distibutor 'AmmoEasy' to do an ammo review for their site and they graciously sent me a box of 9mm PMC 115gr FMJ for testing.  Customer service and shipping were fast and efficient. Prices look good.

I am about as close to an average shooter as one can get w/ a handgun so this review is for the mediocre shots among us. Baretta 92S. RH shooter w/ left eye dominant. Weather was a nice, cool 55F, overcast w/ no breeze.  Range approx 10yrds.

First shots were started 'cold' at center mass:

After I was warmed up a bit, I moved to cranium:

Followed up by some alternative targets.  My nemesis, hedge apples:

and an old, steel pressure tank:

I had zero jams or misfires. Accuracy was on par w/ my abilities and penetration was good.  Angled shots and those farther than 10 yrds didn't penetrate the tank but dented it heavily. Straight on went in.  The hedge apples exploded nicely. As with most PMC ammo, this is a good, inexpensive, general purpose round. I wouldn't use it for high accuracy competitions but for plinking, practice, and home defense, it does its job.
