If this isn’t enough reason to get hitched, I don’t know what is . . . At this Texas jewelry store, buy a ring, get a gun – “A jewelry store in Texas is having its annual Shotgun Wedding Sale this week. Oh no, it’s not what you’re thinking. Grim-faced grooms-to-be won’t be picking out diamonds for their future brides while equally grim-faced future fathers-in-law hold shotguns to their backs. No, at Thacker Jewelry in Lubbock anyone who buys an engagement ring will get a gift certificate for a shotgun or rifle at LSG Tactical Arms, a local gun store.”

Piece of paper saves woman from violent, abusive husband…wait, no it doesn’t: Sheriff’s department says man fatally shot after assaulting wife – “The sheriff’s department says deputies were dispatched Sunday night to a home on Hyndsver Road, where they found the body of 45-year-old Stephen Delauter in an upstairs bedroom of the house. Deputies say his wife, 33-year-old Lee Ann Delauter, shot him after he broke into the home, assaulted her with a knife and shot at her more than once with a semi-automatic gun.”

A pro-gunner is an anti-gunner who’s been mugged creeped out enough: I was anti-gun, until I got stalked – “Mike sighed. ‘Which would you prefer, compromising your principles or getting abducted by Crazy Man?’ That’s when the old Theodore Roosevelt adage popped into my head — “Speak softly and carry a big stick” — and I finally got it. I can still be the compassionate, diplomatic, interfaith groovy gal I’ve always been; I’ll just be packing heat in case negotiations tank.”

Failed Carjacking Turns Into Shooting In Sioux Falls – “‘The driver’s door was cracked slightly. While they were in there, what ends up being our suspect came along and pulled open the door and started punching the man in the head. Telling him to get out. He was trying to take the car,’ said Sioux Falls Police Officer, Sam Clemens. What the suspect didn’t know was the 71-year-old man he was was hitting over the head was carrying a concealed weapon. The Oklahoma man sitting with his wife took a 38 caliber handgun out of his pocket and shot the suspect twice.” Don’t f@<k with an old guy.

This Artist Is Getting Men to Act Out Their Girls with Guns Fantasies in Public – “A Girl and a Gun is now the title of Louise’s new play, a B-movie pastiche that asks the audience to consider what makes this combination so attractive—and so troubling. After she started seeing girls and guns everywhere, from music videos to porn, she also began to question whether a woman wielding a weapon is a symbol of power, or just a male fantasy.”

Skating an FN P90 airsoft gun:

It’s probably best that he doesn’t shoot. He comes awfully close to his junk with that drill when installing those wheels.
