And this genius didn’t think of removing the cartridge from the chamber before testing the pull of the trigger?
Folks, guns are not dangerous, stupid people is. :rolleyes:

Two-Gun Badass thinks he can knock over a gun n’ pawn; gets blown away by white-haired old man.

I’m to lazy to Click Search on Happy Fun Ball. Please somebody: Tell me this was delicious parody … and not an example of sincere humanoid cognition.
White haired old man with a 10mm.
based on his posting history I think its a woosh, but Poe’s law is a harsh mistress.
I suspect HFB’s post is satire, unlike
See, right there at the end, “legislative meetings”, that is a guarantee is public support. I mean, who does not want that other legislator killed for being a dick?
Visitors to the Missouri state Capitol are not allowed to bring guns into the building. So Rep. Nick Marshall is offering to lend a gun to any CCW holder who was not allowed to bring a gun inside. He posted on Facebook:
[Quote=Honorable Gun Nut]
Effective immediately, any constituent of mine with a CCW that was not allowed to bring his firearm into the Capitol may stop by my office and borrow one for the duration of the visit.
[/quote]
He posted a similar sign on his office door. I’m not sure why his offer only extends to his own constituents. I guess other residents can go get weapons from their own representatives. Also AIUI (I am not a gun owner or lawyer) you can open carry in Missouri without a permit. It’s unclear to me if Marshall will only lend guns literally to CCW holders, or anyone who wants to tote around a gun in a building full of lawmakers. Also unclear to me is why Marshall will only hand out firearms. What if a constituent’s weapon of choice is a knife, blackjack, club, sword, or halberd? Can he check one of those out from Marshall?
I know it makes me a terrible person, but I have guilty visions of someone going to his office, borrowing a gun, and then shooting everyone on his staff.
Well, does he say he will provide a loaded one?
But that’s silly. He as a legislator may have the privilege to carry inside the grounds but once the visitor has it that other person is now in violation.
No one wants to take your hunting rifles away?
“Teacher shames young hunter at NE OH school: “Killing animals is not what we do””
Where in the article does it say anyone wanted to take anyone’s guns away? And, did you see the update?
No one’s guns were taken, the school made the required kowtow to the almighty gun, and life went on as it always does.
Seriously, this is the kind of horror story that gun owners tell each other at bed time? This is the kind of thing that makes you fear for the loss of your precious lead spitters?
Sounds more like it was a freedom of speech issue more than RTKBA. The point of the matter was that you call people out on small bullshit before they go onto making bigger asses of themselves.
Yeah, we already have laws about that. How many more do you think we need?
I’m happy to get in line wit you and condemn the father for his carelessness.
Gun folks use CCW licenses as a proxy for someone who have cleared a background check.
This is in juxtaposition o the pro-gun’s antipathy towards licensing and registration. I believe the whole good guy with a gun makes some sense and licensing and registration furthers the policy goals of keeping guns in the hands of good guys.
A lot of gun folks like to say that the second amendment is the one that protects all the others but they’re wrong. In the history of this country the first amendment has protected the second amendment a million times. The second amendment has only rarely been used to protect any of the others.
A 79-year-old resident of a senior apartment complex in St. Louis believed that an assistant manager of the complex had stolen money from his apartment. The resident, who we can only assume was a good guy with a gun up to this point, confronted the assistant manager and shot her in the chest, killing her.
No word on whether the money was recovered. But, hey, you can bet everyone will think twice before stealing from that guy. So…defensive gun use?
I thought it exemplified:
[ul]
[li]the mindset of people who consider hunting barbaric and who would ban the “murder” of animals if they could, and[/li][li]the people so hoplophobic that the very representation of a gun leads them to feel threatened.[/li][/ul]
So you’re engaged in hyperbolic nutpicking.
Weak.
Yes, those theoretical people suck. Now, how many of them are in a position such that they can influence gun laws to the point that there is a real threat of hunting rifles being taken away? How reasonable is your fear of losing access to hunting rifles, based on the actions of some elementary school teacher in some backwater school district?
