A woman who could use your help (*Video*)
Hurricanes don’t select their victims based upon their guilt or innocence. The trash the good and bad alike. Here’s one lady who could use a bit of help.
(RSS Readers, Click Here for Video)
If you’ve got a few extra bucks, you might want to send her some. (Make sure to write that the money is a personal donation TO HER, or she’ll probably use it to send more care packages)

Three weeks until the shooting class at TigerSwan
In just three weeks we will meet at the TigerSwan training center and take our Intro to Pistol class.
I have four spots still open in the class. $220 gets you a spot. Bring a pistol, 500 rounds of ammo, a holster, mags, carriers, and a sturdy belt. For $350 you get a spot in class and they will loan you a pistol and all the equipment (except the belt) and give you 500 rounds of 9mm.

Finally caught a killer
I posted about a guy getting shot on a Durham freeway this March. Well they’ve finally caught the second suspect.
Like I pointed out at the time, the victim was a felon. Now we know more about the suspect
The other suspect has a common enough name that I can’t be sure if he’s the same guy I found in the DOC website.
Don’t they know that felons can’t have guns? It’s like gun control doesn’t work!

Meanwhile in Dermot Ahern Paradise*: “It was self-defense” edition
You know, if you are in the middle of a drug deal and you shoot an unarmed drug dealer because he’s mad you didn’t return his drug weighing scale, it’s a little tough to make the case that it was self defense.
Since guns are really tough to get, pistols even more so, in Ireland, how does gun control contribute to public safety? It’s like the only people that the government is really concerned with is the law abiding ones. The criminal will have all the guns (and apparently, drugs) that they want.
Tell me again, who exactly is disarmed by gun control?
* Dermot Ahern was the Irish Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform. He was adamant that no Irish Gun Culture™ be allowed to arise. He banned all “practical” shooting like IDPA and IPSC.

Leopards, spots, don’t change
A robbery in Charlotte
That’s robbery with a dangerous weapon and kidnapping. He’s up for some serious time. Not that they will actually give it to him, but he’s up for it.
He hasn’t learned his lesson, so let’s hope he gets maxed out.

We’re waiting for the inevitable “He was turning his life around” statement from his family
Guy found dead in North East Charlotte.
No arrests, no suspects.
Multiple felon, history of illegal possession of a firearm, and an absconder from parole.
But still, we will no doubt hear all about how his life was cut tragically short by gun violence just as he was getting his life turned around.

Meanwhile in Rebecca Peters Paradise: Drugs and guns edition
Look, if you can’t keep the drugs out, how exactly do you think you’ll keep the guns out?
…
…
It’s like gun control doesn’t really work at all.
Why am I not surprised?

Let’s have some fun with our President
I posted earlier about two petitions that are available on Whitehouse.gov. Now there are two more. If a petition gets 150 signatures, it becomes “public” and can be seen on the site. If it gets 500 signatures the Obama Administration has to give a public statement on the subject.
We started with HR822, the National Concealed Carry Reciprocity act and moved along to Stephen at The Bluff’s “Repeal the Hughes Amendment” petition. In the comments at Snowflakes in Hell, Matthew asks, What about suppressors and SBR/SBS’s? Well wonder no more.
Here’s the list so far
Go, sign up and sign each petition. It costs you nothing, Bitter says that they can’t use the info to send you begging letters for campaign donations, and let’s face it, you’re already on whatever government list reserved for wacko gun nuts. You may as well entertain yourself by forcing the Obama Administration to issue a public statement on each of these issues.
Have some fun, live a little.
Addendum: I should point out that I only authored one of these petitions, the suppressor one. I don’t know who authored the HR822 petition, Stephen at The Bluff authored the Hughes Amendment one, and Matthew, after some encouragement, authored the SBR/SBS petition.
Update: Another good petition. Assign a special prosecutor in Fast and Furious, courtesy of Rick, in comments.
