Hahah that was great, “Sneeze and you’re dead.” I was watching a Western last night (Shane) and a friend dropped by with about 20 mins left. He started making snoring noises and was generally being rude about my choice of entertainment. I was angry until I realize he just doesn’t understand what is so amazing about the values professed in an Old Western… independence, self-reliance, a stubborn adherence to rights and justice. These ideas just bored the shit out of him, he’s a “modern” man and has no need of such lofty ideals apparently.
I loved the multiple “klik-klak” sound effects in the news report. The one thing that was annoying was the requisite “chiming in” from the local police department about this man being “well within his rights.” Who gives a shit what the police say after the fact? They’re legally not responsible for protecting the man or his property during the act of intrusion, so who gives a FUCK what judgment they pass afterward? Oh, I was wrong officer. MY BAD. At least I’m still alive and have all my shit.
Fucking cops and bureaucracy and politicians have to comment on every god damn thing that goes down these days.
“Little Susie bought an ice cream cone at the store today, and the local police deputies said she was ‘Well within her rights’ to do so, and in fact were thankful because she had ‘supported the local economy.’”
Went and took a “.22 Rifle Training/Safety” course down at the West Side Pistol and Rifle Range with four buddies today. Total blast. The instructor gave us a very rushed run-through of basic rifle safety and the four fundamental principles of rifle-shooting (which I’ve already forgotten since he didn’t try to drill us on it… uhhh, sight-view, stance, trigger pull? Something else?) as well as how to load the rifle and clear it of any jams. Then he let us loose on the range. The course was $50 which included the use of the .22 Ruger semi-auto and 50 rounds of “Wildcat” .22 ammo, and then we all bought an extra box of 50 rounds for $5 more. With tax, came out to about $60 even, which I thought was pretty good for the time and rounds shot.
I had a good time and shot pretty well, actually. Practiced at 21 feet, 25 feet and 45 feet and had some good shot groupings at 25 feet. One of my buddies was an absolute bullseye at 45feet, he was getting a little cocky haha.
I love shooting guns. Too bad you need to have a license just to TOUCH a fucking handgun in this prison of a city. Every time I get on the subway I see the “Caught with an illegal handgun? You’re going to prison for (3, 5 years, I forgot), period.” and the best part of it is the “Guns = Crime” slogan… which would make police… what? First class criminals, it sounds like.
Fucking statist hypocrisy.
‘Twas Mr. Orwell, I think, you was the first to recognize that the State would manipulate mathematical laws of equality as a form of brainwashing. “Guns = Crime, 2+2 = 5″

an old friend often said he was born 100 years late. late 1800s west was his ideal environment. wasn’t until about 5 years later i started to see properly what he was talking about.
on the badged criminals rendering an opinion, count on the MSM having sought it out. strange thing about that clip was that there wasn’t even an ounce of “blah blah blah, but…” cautionary mumbo. seemed like all were on board. refreshing, but probably only by mistake.
