Gun Control 'Humor'

The remnants of the Brady Campaign to Ban Guns has apparently hired a high school student w/ a free website template program and MSPaint to make a 'parody' travel website.

CrimAdvisor.com

See now a good 'parody' site is one where you have trouble distinguishing it from a real one, not plastering your banner and sad propaganda all over the page which is what the Brady's High School student did. Nevermind the (intentional?) mis-spelling in the title when 'CrimeAdvisor.com' seems to actually be available.

How accurate is the site?  Well it seems to go by the old Brady grading system which has no correlation to violent crime, just which laws they like/don't like.  I took a look at Illinois and under the stupid 'reviews' they have this "Easy to get a permit to pack heat in public"

Easy?  $400-$500 in costs, 3-6 months waiting for a 'background check' and 16 hrs of training is 'easy'?  Oh right, they mean that the authorities can't arbitrarily discriminate against you under 'may issue'. 

I wonder how many light switches they keep turned off to lower their electricity bill.

Wow! That is hilarious and so misguided. If this is what they've been reduced to, they make CSGV look good by comparison.

The bathrooms, certainly. The $#!+ is coming out through their computers.

I actually like the actual Brady scorecard, even with its errors.

Both as a guide to how good a given states gun laws are (low scores being better of course), and the fact that they have to keep revising their standards as a given freedom of exercise becomes commonplace.

If you track the scoring, and the graded topics, over time it becomes clear they are publishing their own obituary in slow motion.
