Right Wing Nation

“Gun control is going so well that machine gun-toting police are patrolling the street due to the gun crime. Unpossible.” Also from Uncle, but not the UK, Granny compensates for the size of her penis.

Not to steal Uncle’s line, but Obama is obviously compensating for his small penis.
Related, and also from Uncle, is this unsurprising but interesting poll.

I voted, even though there are no contested races in my party. I also found out that my church is a voting place, with even fewer voters than across the street, since it’s in the student ghetto, which is empty right now.
Oh. Surely a Darwin Award winner. From Uncle:
Samuel Benally Jr. was at an apartment […]

Both from Chanman, first a bumpersticker contradiction on one car:
My kids think I’m an ATM!
and
Obama ‘08
Obviously, not the brightest bulb in the chandelier drives that car. Okay, I was being nice. Only an idiot could put both of those bumperstickers on the same vehicle. But there are idiots of the harmless variety, and idiots of […]

Quote of the day, from Hardy:
In the last three months of 2008, that’s right, three months, Americans bought enough guns to outfit the Chinese and Indian armies, combined.
Thanks, Uncle! And speaking of, there’s more.
Assault weapon ban talk increases guns sales
Hellacious!

I’m not the only one (thanks to Uncle for the link).

Guaranteed to make weenie heads pop like zits, from the Pennsylvania DNR:
Proud parents of a new hunter

in addition to gun and ammo sales, suddenly, Atlas Shrugged sales are booming. i wonder why that is?
h/t dr helen

with that boom, that is, and in order to do so, Sebastian reports that Glock is producing 4,000 handguns a day, and importing more from Austria.

Via Uncle:
Despite an ever-worsening economy and slumping retail sales, firearm sales increased in February, continuing an upswing that began after November’s election.
Data from the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) show background checks on the sale of firearms jumped 23.3 percent in February when compared to February 2008. The increase follows a 28 […]

From the Armed School Teacher:
Some college kid found a round-”a” as in ONE round–of .45 acp in a washing machine. After a moment’s break to soil himself and have a good cry, he apparently called the campus police, who shrieked like girls for the real police, who brought in “bomb-sniffing dogs” to search out […]

Look who’s back!

I don’t know where Uncle finds this stuff, but another apocalypse is approaching! Untold atrocities, even!
Autonomous military robots that will fight future wars must be programmed to live by a strict warrior code, or the world risks untold atrocities at their steely hands.
I see somebody didn’t read Asimov, specifically, I, Robot, and therefore, doesn’t know […]

Slideshow, season three of Future Weapons.

You’d better sit down, because I’m about to diss the NRA, and you won’t often see that here.
Sitting down? Good.
I’m not a bowhunter, but if you lived here, you’d have to be blind not to see the United Bowhunters of Pennsylvania stickers. I haven’t done a study or gathered data, but from sight alone, surely […]

<drumroll>
The Gun Salesman of the Year is . . .
<drumroll>
Barack Obama!

In response to the explosion in gun sales since the election, Obama lies through his teeth. The response?
An explosion in CCW permits.

And I quote:
Gangbangers support gun buy backs.
Like the man says, shocking.

Conservative Teacher:
It’s interesting to watch the public react to an Obama Presidency- the stock market collapses, GM announces new layoffs, and gun sales go up.

The Obama people purged that “urban policy” (gun control) page because we noticed it, but when will they learn that nothing disappears on the internet? Ace Vinnie took a snapshot.

Gun sales were up during the campaign, but they’re skyrocketing now. Why? Well, remember how Obama tried to sell himself as a supporter of the Second Amendment? Now that he’s won, he’s completely dropped that lie. From Obama’s site to your eyes:
They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent, as such weapons […]

From PA Water Cooler (I assume it’s somewhere here in the state).

Gun sales are still increasing. Gee, I wonder why?

First, the context. Here’s the picture.

Here’s the professional journalist’s or gateway keeper’s or urban idiot’s (take your pick) statement.
Hey, is that even the right way to hold a rifle? Can’t you shoot your foot off like that?
Tim Blair posted about this yesterday. Great comments.

It takes a really special kind of stupid to unite an entire […]

Via Gateway Pundit, cease and desist order issued against Obama campaign.
The Obama campaign in Indiana, on September 27, unlawfully obtained and made unauthorized use of a proprietary media list belonging to the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) – the trade association for the firearms industry. Sen. Obama used this list to e-mail a press release […]

“Hillary was right.”
I bet you never thought you’d see an NRA ad that began with those words, did you (pdf file).

NRA endorses McCain. Of course, Barr is steamed, although he has no justification, since he’s a board member. He should know that the NRA is a pragmatic organization. The only thing an NRA endorsement for Barr would achieve is an Obama presidency.
Then, Bob Barr is a certified idiot, so perhaps that is justification.

From Sebatian’s blog:
There was a day when people were content to be stupid in private. Thanks to the ‘net we can all share the moment with this dude.
welcome to the new america where stupid is a fashion accessory

Breaking news: Obama is a jackbooted thug.
Barack Obama’s campaign is trying to silence the National Rifle Association’s latest ad campaign using strong arm tactics by threatening them with possible legal action if they run the ads
Why the thuggery? Because the NRA is right, and Obama doesn’t want you to know until after election day (hint […]

Rachel makes an astute observation.
You know what’s funny? It’s always people like this, the ones who fear a fascist police-state, who don’t think regular citizens should be allowed to have guns. And they say we’re the stupid ones.

Biden: Obama, don’t you think about taking away my Baretta! So the only question that remains is what’s next, this?

Or will we get something a bit more Kerryesque, maybe Obama in camos with the price tags dangling as he goes duck hunting?

Preparing for a possible Democratic win.
Gun sales are going boom around the country as gun owners and gun advocates brace for a potential Democrat in the White House for the first time in almost 10 years.
This is funny, though.
Democrats, meanwhile, say there’s no reason to worry that presidential hopeful Barack Obama would attempt to curtail […]

very savvy — and it’s working. Turn the sound down before you watch this clip. Allahpundit calls it roaring. That’s pretty accurate.
The media estimate a 10,000 turnout for the rally in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
Meanwhile, when Obama’s not whining or begging Hillary to take on that mean ol’ lady from Alaska, he’s making an ass of […]

Very cool. Second Amendment granny.

Uncle: Gun control: what you do instead of something

Seriously.
When he was arrested on July 1 Webster reportedly told police that he had a constitutional right to own those guns. If that sounds scary, here’s something scarier. There are a lot of people out there who agree with him.
Second Amendment literalists have long held that the phrase “the right of the people to keep […]

Seen this, Daley?
Municipalities concerned about violent crime rates in their communities and dismayed at the Supreme Court finding in Heller that cements a public right to legal gun ownership would be wise to point themselves towards Richmond, Virginia for a dose of common sense. The capital legislature of the Old Dominion teamed with local, state […]

at least for you gun nuts, is Kevin’s Freedom, Hope, Outrage, Bright Lines, Revolution and End Times. Long, and thought provoking.

I hate to say this, because I’m going to come off like a traitor, but I strongly suspect that crime rates have more to do — directly, that is — with the metropolitan/non-metropolitan population ratio than they do gun laws.
Look at the crime rates for states broken down into metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas. The difference […]
