Helicopter Government

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 22:18:34 +0000

Forget helicopter parents mentioned in the post over teens who no longer desire the independence that comes with driving, this is a case of government gone mad with control over how you parent your children. The Department of Labor has proposed new rules that would restrict children under the age of 16 from working on [...] Related posts:

The Vacuous Media

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:59:49 +0000

I’ve recently watched The Today Show, only to be reminded of that scene in the movie Fargo where Mrs. Lundegaard is watching some super cheesy daytime talk show, right before Grimsrud and Showalter come crashing through the sliding glass door. Today is pretty much that same vacuous dreck. So it’s not surprising they are latching [...] No related posts.

Kids These Days

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:42:35 +0000

Tam highlights a post from someone who visited Europe, tried to rent a car, only to be told they didn’t have any “American transmissions.” It’s hard to find anyone born after 1980 that knows how to drive a manual. Kids these days. I suppose I don’t mind if they don’t know how to drive cars [...] Related posts:

A Bullpup .50BMG?

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:54:04 +0000

This looks like a quite interesting idea, to make a Bullpup .50BMG semi-auto, but I’m skeptical for a few reasons. Weight is a counter to recoil. 50s are generally heavy, but that also significantly reduces perceived recoil. These are lighter. How hard do they thump shooting offhand? Do I really want to weld my cheek [...] Related posts:

You Can Take Your CPAC and Shove It!

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:10:21 +0000

Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) is today, tomorrow and Saturday. All I have to say is that CPAC and the American Conservative Union that runs can go get bent as far as I’m concerned. Why? Because they have chosen to exclude gay conservative groups from their conference. I will not blog about CPAC, blog about [...] Related posts:

A Must Read

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 14:32:17 +0000

Iowahawk’s take on the Clint Eastwood Super Bowl commercial, “A Fistful of Rebates” : And, what’s true about Detroit is true about all of us. This country can’t be knocked out with one punch. We get back up, slip again, and send the video to our personal injury lawyer. And when we do – the world is [...] Related posts:

A Better Rail System?

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 04:17:56 +0000

The Firearm Blog posts about a new type of module rail system that looks a lot better, to me, than Picatinny rails. All my AR-15s, save one, have standard ribbed hand guards. I find the Picatinny rail hand guards uncomfortable to shoot. On my one AR with Picatinny rails, I have ribbed hand guards attached [...] No related posts.

Allergic to Diversity?

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 03:53:47 +0000

Joan Peterson mistakes a zombie for a “black man,” and then proceeds to be horrified that zombies are an largely just fun and games, and became an internet meme, just like lolcats. I can’t recall when the zombie internet meme actually started, but it started as a joke. The earliest stuff I can remember being this: [...] No related posts.

Emily Finally Gets Her Gun

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:18:59 +0000

Hear the final tale of her story of Emily getting her gun. But this is not over for her: Now, this series is far from over. As I’ve found, the hurdles placed before gun owners do not end here. I need to figure out the laws on getting ammunition and transporting the gun to a [...] No related posts.

Media Mislabeling Preemption Enforcement

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 17:54:53 +0000

I’m tired of seeing the media characterize the new preemption bill thusly: The state House of Representatives is scheduled to vote today on a bill that would outlaw ordinances in 30 municipalities – including Reading – that require gun owners to report lost or stolen firearms within 24 hours of discovering them missing. This bill [...] No related posts.
