The right of the citizens to bear arms in defense of themselves and the State …
From Rick Hills of Prawfsblawg:
In my experience, intellectuals (as a class) are ideologically intolerant, easily offended by ordinary humor, and pretentious in their prejudices, which they disguise as universal truths.
I couldn’t agree more. Hat tip to Instapundit (I think)
TD found a guy that’ll show you how to be an elite team fighter. Back when I used to frequent the public ranges, every once in a while you’d see some guy show up all decked out in tactical gear.  I never saw anyone go so far as a mask and helmet, but ninja style hat, yes. As would be expected, most of the time they couldn’t hit shit. I’ve also seen, occassionaly, individuals who didn’t fully understand what a cold range means, and were adjusting something or another on their firearms while people were down range.
UPDATE: I guess I must live in a cave, or don’t hang out on forums enough, but I didn’t know the term Mall Ninja was actually named after a person. My first inclination is to believe these are parodies… jokes on forum users if you will. I just can’t believe anyone could be that delusional.
UPDATE: Apparently I do live in a cave, considering we’re all familiar with the person behind this Mall Ninja parody.
If this is the kind of male fashion you really like, why not just say “f^#k it” and go lesbian? Thankfully we have plenty of real women on the gun blogsphere who like real men, not poofy metrosexuals who put on lipstick. And at what point does a guy decide that putting on lipstick is OK? Really.
As Bruce points out, step one is to unload the firearm, not get an ice cold bucket of Miller Lite. Any guess on what The Garden State would do to an FID holder if this happened?
… you probably shouldn’t be complaining about stores selling things-which-are-not-porn-but-that-offends-me-anyway.
Now they are warning people that firearms may be mistaken for firearms, and telling people they may not be able to paint them. I wonder if this was part of the deal with Bloomberg.
… as the Brady Campaign knows about guns. Fortunately, Jay is a horse racing aficionado, and has debunked the PETA claims.
UPDATE: Jay has more here.
UPDATE: More from Marshall Manson.
Reverend Wright is the gift that just keeps on giving:
The Chicago pastor refused to apologize for suggesting black Americans should sing “God Damn America” instead of “God Bless America” and for suggesting America brought 9/11 on itself because, as he put it, “we have never apologized as a country” for slavery.
“Britain has apologized to Africans but this country’s leaders have refused to apologize,” he said. Wright also said, “You can’t do terrorism on other people and not expect it to come back on you.”
Speaking as someone who has never enslaved another human being, nor knows anyone who has, I think I can fairly tell Reverend Wright to go to hell. One of the key concepts in American liberty is that we are not held to account for the sins of our fathers. And speaking of our forefathers, is this not enough of an apology for you Rev. Wright?
While the Albany Times Union is busy suggesting New York State is about to mandate lasers, New South Wales is busy talking about banning them.
