One of the favorite dodges of hoplophobes and other anti-firearm activists throughout America is to proclaim how they are “quite liberal”… right after or before saying that all they want is “more gun control”, as if being liberal were somehow vindication for that stance, or gave that desire more weight … [...] So the situation in Honduras has gotten… interesting. Most of the news sources out there are decrying it as an “illegal coup”, and even our Glorious President has come out condemning the individuals and groups who (peacefully) overthrew the previous President. However, a little bit of a background always makes … [...] It seems that Randy Rayburn doesn’t like the fact that restaurateurs can make a different business decision than him, so he’s suing to prevent restaurant carry from becoming law. [...] Stupid-assed headline of the day: “Court ruling offers little guidance on fair hiring“. [...] I really did not know that all of these various scales existed for my new Kershaw RAM… Or, rather, my wallet did not… Especially not these Bois de Rose ones…… [...] It is looking like Better Half and I will be headed to a small town in North Carolina for the Fourth of July weekend, and like all law-abiding handgun carry permit holders, I took it upon myself to research and understand the local laws concerning my carrying my firearm in … [...] I went to the RK Show in Smyrna, TN, this Sunday for a couple of reasons. I worked the TFA booth for a little bit, I wanted to try to sell that green laser, and I wanted to sell my high-cap WASR-10 before prices dropped. [...] Unsurprisingly, the “Control and Tax”… er… I mean… “Cap and Trade” bill pass the House early Friday morning last week. Even more unsurprisingly, the bill passed even before our duly-elected Representatives had a chance to read all 1390-odd pages of it.

For those keeping score at home, that five cases of hers reversed by the Supreme Court and two upheld, though in one of those upheld cases, the Supreme Court unanimously … [...] So I went to see Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen over the weekend, and good movie or not, the Transformer series continues to be one of the best advertisements for the United States Armed Forces – damn near every shiny toy we have, and some we do not, was put … [...] Fair warning to my fellow Magic: The Gathering players: On 11JUL09, the rules change (simultaneous with the pre-release of the new “Magic 2010″ core set, which is not the “tenth edition”, despite its misleading set icon).
