From Kenny’s place, in the Comments:
“Never tell someone you are going to dig up their dead sister and skull fuck her, unless you have a foolproof plan for getting out of your own grave.”
I think we can all see the wisdom of this.

Comment Of The Day
Responding to this article:
The second night of protests followed Thursday’s fatal shooting of 32-year-old Winston Boogie Smith Jr., who was wanted on a weapons violation and fired a gun before two deputies shot him.
The top comment was:
And I’m not even going to touch on the irony of the victim’s name.

Quote Of The Day
Robert Ruark (Uhuru, The Honey Badger, Something Of Value, etc.) was always one of my favorite authors, as alone among many, he “got” Africa — in fact, I think he actually coined the expression “Africa wins again” in one of his more cynical moments. Of course, he was a real hunter, so when it comes to hunting and guns, he should be carefully listened to. This was sent to me by Mr. Free Market:
And here’s a picture of Ruark, with some of his guns:
From memory, after he died (at age 49, from cirrhosis of the liver) his estate contained well over fifty rifles, most of “African” calibers (.375 H&H, .470 NE, .404 Jeffery, .416 Rigby, etc., which gave credence to one of his other books, Use Enough Gun ) and an unknown number of handguns and shotguns.
Now I’m not saying we should all copy the great man; but I am saying that if we do end up with a similar number in our collection, we should feel energized, not remorseful. I remember my own situation, back in the day…
Not all of those were mine, but most were (all the Mausers, for example).
And for the record, I’ve never woken up in the morning hating myself for having purchased a gun the day before. That’s certainly not true of women.

Ooooo Insty’s being snarky, Insty is:
” Maybe responding to hysterical people is a bad basis for policy.”
He’s talking about flooding the schools with cops because of all the perceived dangers of school shootings, then pulling cops from schools altogether because cops are racist tools of Teh Patriarchy or some such bollocks.
Of course, the hair-on-fire shrieking Socialists (or Gummint bureaucrats, some overlap) are never going to let a good crisis go to waste, so if there’s no crisis they have to create one. Evil bastards.

From Hizzoner NYGov Cuomo [okay, quit that spitting] :
“The streets of New York are not the OK Corral, and the N.R.A.’s dream of a society where everyone is terrified of each other and armed to the teeth is abhorrent to our values.”
Just a point of clarification, Herr Gauleiter : at the O.K. Corral, everyone was carrying a gun — and lest you forget, the outlaws lost.
Compare that to the mean streets of NYFC nowadays, where only the bad guys have guns… and the law-abiding citizens suffer. Is that part of those “values”, too? If so, I want nothing to do with them, or you.
