Girl hit by stray bullet while watching fireworks – Houston Chronicle

It pains me to read the same headlines every 4th of July and every New Year, “Girl hit by stray bullet while watching fireworks…” Folks, nearly all us gun owners know better but, there are always bad apples (typically noobs) who just don’t get it. What goes up must come down…Typically with enough force to injure or kill and certainly damage property.

Police say the girl was hit shortly after midnight Wednesday in the buttocks by what initially was believed to be fireworks as she stood outside her home in the 900 block of Alametos Street. It was later found to be a bullet, believed to have been fired by someone to ring in the New Year, police said.

So count this as a Public Service Announcement…Friends don’t let friends launch bullets without knowing where those bullets are going.

On the recent Fox and DeLatuer study: Let me save you some time…

If you get a link to this study, here’s the abridged version in their own words…(emphasis added)

The fact that gun control, expanded psychiatric services, and increased security measures are limited in their ability to prevent dreadful mass shootings doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t try. In the immediate aftermath of the Newtown shooting, there was momentum in Washington, D.C., and in various state legislatures to establish policies and procedures designed to make us all safer.

 

Gun restrictions and other initiatives may not stop the next mass murderer, wherever he or she may strike, but we can enhance the well-being of millions of Americans in the process. Besides, doing something is better than doing nothing. At least, it will reduce the debilitating feeling of helplessness.  -via  Mass Shootings in America: Moving Beyond Newtown.

While they’d prefer to abolish the 2nd Amendment, have you doped stupid by a psychiatrist, and lock everyone who even seem a little off into a rubber room, they recognize that none of these steps would actually prevent the next mass murder. But, doing something is better than nothing!

One of America’s most twisted news sources reports Marine Corps started in a gay bar…

“Many of the Army personnel who were stationed with Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan noticed a lot of primordial homo-erotic tendencies within their lower enlisted ranks,” he said. “The way they would casually smack each other’s asses, their brazen displays of nudity amongst their comrades, it was incredible to see. Plus there was that time I saw two dudes going down on each other behind a port-o-shitter on Camp Leatherneck. That was pretty fuckin’ gay.” -Army Sgt. 1st Class Craig Mangas

About the Toby Keith Controversy

Gun Ban At Country Star Toby Keith’s Newest Restaurant Causes Outcry – Forbes.

We really don’t care but, here’s the deal, Keith is a self-professed liberal who supports President Obama. And yet, in the same breath he claims to be ““I’m all about good people, licensed and trained, carrying a concealed weapon…”

I personally don’t believe the two views are congruent with each other. I’m not saying it’s impossible but, the vast majority of people I’ve encountered who support Obama and his policies, also mirror his stated policies on guns and for the record, Obama never stated a belief in an individual right to keep and bear arms until Washington D.C. was defeated in the SCOTUS ruling on the Heller Case. Clinton is no supporter either so if these are Keith’s political idols, he’s not a friend to us now or ever.

Having said all this, at the end of the day, Keith is a property owner. He therefore has the right to institute whatever policies he wants on his property. We’ve been through this “controversy” before with StarBucks. Without getting into the open carry vs concealed carry issue, the fact is, he can do what he wants with his restaurant. WE as a community do not have to patronize it. Vote with your feet and your wallet. Don’t buy his music or  any music he produces with others.  Don’t buy his T-shirts. And don’t patronize his restaurants. It’s that simple. Just don’t give him any of your money. Beyond that, the business of calling him a traitor to the country and saying bad things need to happen to him doesn’t accomplish anything. But if you happen to see him burning on the side of the road, please don’t bother to urinate on him to put him out either.
