Guns Save Life

Help! I shot my acorns off!

From the “How did we miss this one!?” category (thank you Tom W!), we bring you the story of a thug in Portland, OR who robbed a man and then shot his victim in the leg before running off.

While running, he employed the “appendix inside the waistband carry” style of carrying – only Mexican style (sans holster) – at which time he had a holstering malfunction and blew some of his man-parts off.

And probably scorched whatever was left.  That’s good though.  Cauterizing slows the bleeding.

Oh yes, dear reader, it’s okay to chuckle.  We’re chuckling quietly here.

Joseph Johnson, 40, faces charges for felon in possession of a firearm and armed robbery to add insult to his new castrato status.  (Yes, technic

The Illinois State Journal-Register had a big Sunday article about legislators not wanting to “wait and see” with the new concealed carry law.

Frankly, the article could have been titled, “Legislators posturing on new concealed carry law” and frankly, would have been more accurate.

Here’s a couple of bits from the story.

Illinois lawmakers are wasting no time in attempting to make changes to the state’s barely 7-month-old concealed-carry law, weeks before even the first batch of permits are sent out to approved applicants.

Pawn King in Urbana, IL has graciously donated a Ruger LCRx (“x” for exposed hammer) as Guns Save Life’s April drawing gun at our Rantoul meeting.

The gun, in .38 Special caliber, is a nice carry piece for pockets or purse carry.

I’ve checked out the gun myself and for a factory Ruger, this specimen has a very nice trigger.

I confess.  My name is John and I’m a trigger snob.

Life is too short for a lousy trigger and the vast majority of my self-defense pistols have had trigger jobs.  You won’t need to have an action job done on this Ruger LCRx from Pawn King if you win it and you’re a trigger snob like me.

“Whoa!  John!  Wh

Barack H. Obama has gutted the Air Force’s budget to the point where they can’t offer an honor flight for certain burial details at Arlington National Cemetery.

Allen West found this, and wrote, “For those of you who think Big Government has all the answers, just take a few minutes to watch this video. ”

He said it well.

Basically, two crewmen of a A-26 were shot down in a combat mission over Laos almost a half-century ago.  The recently found the crash site and excavated it, and identified the bodies.

Recently they were given a burial at Arlington with full honors.  Including a flyover performed by civilians.

Watch for the rest…

(For The Win) – T.J. Oshie was quickly labeled as one of the American heroes of the Sochi Olympics with his clutch performance against Russia on Saturday. In an interview with Pittsburgh Tribune-Review columnist Dejan Kovacevic, he said he believed otherwise. Heroes, he reportedly said (via Kovacevic’s Twitter), is a term that should be reserved for someone other than a hockey player.

Well said, young man.

Kudos, of course, to the American athletes at Sochi.

Yes, in front of tens of millions of fans watching nation-wide plus tens of thousands watching live at the event, the brand new Obama Government Motors pace car burst into flames.

We’re guessing it was one of Government Motors new electric cars or perhaps a bad day on the assembly line of one of their new gas-powered cars.

In either event, doesn’t it make you want to go out and buy a Chevrolet today?

This is what happens when you put the government in charge of a company in private industry.

The Hartford, CT hometown newspaper has declared war on gun owners.

In a Valentine’s Day missive, the paper’s editors wrote:

Gun Registration: Break the law, pay the price
February 14, 2014| The Hartford Courant

Connecticut has a gun problem.

It’s estimated that perhaps scores of thousands of Connecticut residents failed to register their military-style assault weapons with state police by Dec. 31.

That’s the deadline imposed by a tough bipartisan gun-safety law passed by the legislature last year in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre.

Widespread noncompliance with this major element of a law that was seen as a speedy and hopefully ef

The final member of the doomed trio of inner-city thugs who tried an armed robbery of an off-duty sheriff’s deputy sergeant at a CITGO gas station in Chicago is in custody and being held on $2 million bail.  Emannuel Jackson, all of 15 years old, is now facing a first-degree murder rap along with armed robbery charges.

The other suspect to flee with his life, Davante Graham, surrendered last week  His attorney claims the case against her client is “circumstantial” – even though there’s a nice video tape of the incident we’ve all seen.  (And a not-as-nice one.)

So, were these choirboys on their way to turning their lives around?

Not so likely.

19-year-old man climbs in daughter’s window.

Beats the 19-year-old daughter.  Daughter calls for help and mom rapidly and promiscuously perforated him. “There may be some paralysis issues,” cops say.

Well, if so then he probably won’t be beating women in the future, now will he?

Cops say the two dated at some point in the past.  Our question is:  Is he related to Carlos Henriquez, the anti-gun former Democrat Massachusetts State Representative ejected from the Massachusetts House for beating his girlfriend because she wouldn’t have sex with him?

TULSA, Oklahoma (News on 6) – Tulsa police say a 19-year-old man may be paralyzed after an early morning shooting at a house in the 2500 block of East 1st Street.

Another anti-gun state sees hundreds of job move away – this time it is Andrew “Conservatives have no place in the state of New York” Cuomo’s New York State.

Cuomo’s gun control and his political zealotry are costing his state 2,000 jobs and $87 million as Remington scales back its presence in New York State and breaks ground on new facilities in Alabama.

The deal is supposed to be announced Monday, according to Yellowhammer News.

High level sources have informed Yellowhammer News that Remington, one of the world’s largest gun manufacturers, will on Monday join Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley in announcing that they are bringing over 2,000 jobs to Alabama.

The company is viewing the move into Alabama as an expansion, but it will likely impact their Ilion, NY plant as well. The New York facility currently employees around 1,200 people. It is

Like anyone, I love a good conspiracy, especially when it suggests something along the lines of dark government forces working at some level to destroy our liberty (or at least blaming them for alar in apples.) Of late, one can’t seem to log on to Facebook or any gun forum without seeing predictions of our impending doom because some government branch has posted a contract bid for ammunition – The latest being the Department of Homeland Security’s bid for 141,000 rounds of “sniper” ammo.

Granted, if I knew nothing about firearms, ammunition or the industry, I’d probably think the sky was falling too. Problem is that I do know a little something about the industry, so I’m less than impressed with the presentation.

Let me break it down for you:

141,000-rounds of ammo comes to 1000-rounds per 141 snipers.

Deonta Mackey’s accomplice faces murder charges for his role in the death of Deonta during their armed robbery of the Cook Co. Sheriff’s Deputy a few days ago.

His attorney, Donna A. Rotunno, calls the damning surveillance video “mostly circumstantial”.

And then there’s Facebook photos of the two ghetto hoodlums posing with the gun recovered after Deonta’s brain housing group was perforated while he was committing the armed robbery.

I don’t know what Donna’s smoking, but I don’t want anywhere near it.  Heck, I don’t even want to imbibe it second-handedly.

That or she’s simply delusional.

$1 mil bond for teen charged with murder in attempted robbery of cop

A pair of bottom-feeding thugs held up a senior citizens social club in Gary, IN, seeking to rob the club and patrons of money and valuables.

They came in with guns blazing.  One of the thugs fled when one of the innocent victims pulled his own gun and returned fire.

The second cowardly thug?  He sprung a couple of leaks and hid in the bathroom until police arrived.  He didn’t want any more hot lead supplements in his diet.

Hey, Chicago trash, the folks from the senior center in Gary have got a message for you:  “We got permits and guns over here, you dumb turds.”
