When a populace are disarmed subjects rather than armed citizens, when they don’t have a written constitution or the right to silence, there are only two ways it can go: criminally controlled chaos with endemic corruption (e.g., Mexico) or a police state (e.g. the UK). I don’t know if the UK police force will implement SelectaDNA’s High Velocity DNA Tagging System. But I bet they want to. gizmag.com reports that CO2 cartridges imbed the DNA tag in skin creases for up to two weeks. “The pistol can squeeze off 20 shots per 12-gram cartridge, while the rifle’s capacity is higher. Both guns allow users to hit targets from a range of 30 to 40 meters (98 to 131 feet).” So it’s jolly useful for marking protestors for later collection. But not in the U.S., where armed civilians might not take kindly to getting shot by anyone with anything. See the difference?

You ma’am are awesome. Stay safe.
Just watch out for drones.
And these are the same people who think that having to show an I.D. to vote is an egregious violation of rights.
Ok, so – 3 guns, 3 different calibers, magazines I would presume for each. Thats quite a loadout. I am trying to get a mental picture of what this guy looked like with all that gear. If he had it all on a belt, he would not fit in the drivers side of the car – but if not – did he gear up on site? Shotgun in trunk would suggest at least he arrived, popped the trunk to get rifle? I shoot 3gun matches and rifle/pistol together is quite a lot to manage – its that 3rd gun/ammo that just makes it difficult to picture – Not a conspiracy theory or anything, just, well….wow.
The Green Lantern shirt is an excellent touch.
My fiancée ripped an article out of a magazine so she didn’t have to listen to me rant.
I have a feeling it was about gun control. So yes, it does get irritating and frustrating.
what thell was this suppposed to be a debate? all i hear is the bashing of firearms owners and the nra. Stupid Chris mathews… hes the american version of Pierce “retard” Morgan
what are they going to do? speak up about legislation? no way. continue doing business and people will continue buying Kimber Rifles and Pistols
Holy crap so am I! I’m currently going through architecture school so hopefully I can work with level design on future video games. Can I get your email if I have any questions about video game developement?
There should at the minimum be a due process requirement before denying a fundamental right.
There should be, as in some other states, a maximum wait time after which a permit is automatically issued. But that won’t happen. Not there.
My backordered 1000 rounds of Herter’s 62gr 223 from Cabelas finally arrived today. Looks like they are working their way through the backlog, I placed the order back in December. $300. Pretty happy with it, wished I had bought a couple more crates while they were still taking backorders.
We’ve heard indirectly from someone who attended the SHOT Show in Vegas recently that demand has far exceeded supply and the manufacturers are humping to get caught up. Hopefully the shortage won’t last too long.
I liked it when Amanda Peet spoke out against Jenny McCarthy and the anti-vaccination crowd. C’est la vie…
I think the real thing to focus on here, aside from purely subjective declarations of what constitutes physical beauty among members of the fairer sex, is ‘celebrity.’ Sure, it would be nice if scores of beautiful women spoke out in support of the Second Amendment. It would probably even get the media’s attention. Sadly, it would need to make the covers of trashy pop-culture magazines to have a real impact. There is an entire meta-industry that thrives on the doings of celebrities, and the people who fuel that industry are unlikely to be TTAG viewers.
If you genuinely want to spread the pro-2A message to those people, you need to put it where they’ll find it – in terms they can understand. There *are* pro-2A celebrities, and though that title has little bearing on the validity of their statements, the unwashed masses listen to them. Sad, but true… and we’re not exactly in a position to dismiss them.
Until the events of last December, firearms owners and 2A supporters had good reasons to think our views were becoming more mainstream. Of course, most – if not all – firearms related programming has vanished from the airwaves. Perhaps network execs only saw those shows as curiosities… as windows into the lives of people they could care less about. Either way, it helped.
I know that Hollywood doesn’t exactly embrace our position, or members of the entertainment industry who go against the grain; however, we *know* that there are pro-2A celebrities, and we *need* them to be vocal and active. I don’t like it, but their voices reach ears ours never will.
Bruce Willis is catching some hell for it, but I’m damn glad he said something. I didn’t really have much desire to see the next Die Hard, but I’m going to now.
I need to stop reading the comment sections of these links, though. When this is all said and done, and the self appointed vox populi move on to the next thing- gay cub scouts?- they’ll smile and bobble-head and forget about their “passionate crusade to end gun violence.”
And they’ll give me that bewildered “WTF?” face when I tell them to FOAD, next time they come around thinking we’re buddies.
