Who Could Have Guessed?

Mass pardon for convicts in Italy leads to a crime wave...

Governments. Is there anything they don't do well?

The Real Bellwether

Kansans are lining up to buy guns and learn how to shoot them.

“Usually summers in the gun business are deader than a doornail, but we’re having a record year,” said Jeff Howlett, owner of Kansas Firearms Specialties in Tonganoxie.

If it seems there has been an unusually intense barrage of anti-gun activity, from opportunistic political traitors making their treasonous threats, to "authorized journalists" egging them on, Americans voting with their pocketbooks ought to be an indicator of what's really going on behind all the hoopla.

We're the Only Ones Stunning Enough

A COP lost his 50,000- volt Taser stun gun when he left it on his car roof and drove off...Police fear it has fallen into the wrong hands and a spokesman said: "If someone has it or finds it they should contact us immediately."

Ah, the lovely, disarmed UK.

Where the term "shooting match" takes on a whole new meaning...

We're the Only Ones Locked Down Enough

New Jersey State Prison remained in lockdown Sunday, two days after authorities discovered a loaded firearm within its secured perimeter, prison officials said.

If the "Only Ones" can't even keep guns out of the state pen or other maximum security cellblock hellholes like Newark or Jersey City, what are the chances that "gun control" will work in society at large?

I Hope He Didn't Mess Up His Upholstery, Either

A 78-year-old Philadelphia man used a .38 caliber handgun to thwart a carjacker.

George Newton said that when William Edney approached him, held a pistol to his head and said "Don't do anything funny," he handed him the keys to his sport utility vehicle...But when he saw that Edney was trying to shift gears with his gun hand Newton decided the time had come for action. He pulled out his own weapon and shot Edney in the jaw, and then walked to the other side of the car and shot him in the shoulder.

Here's my favorite part of this story:

"Both windows were down so I didn't mess up any of my glass," Newton told the Inquirer.

Glad to see not all Newtons are morons.

Still, I wonder if he thinks it's worth all that "blood on the streets" in Philadelphia?

Besides, why couldn't he just dial "911"?

Or like Democrat Hal smugly proposes, "engage a bodyguard or two"?

We're the Only Ones Natural Enough

A former Milwaukee police officer already facing charges in connection with the beating of a biracial man has been charged with lying on an application to buy a gun and then jumping bail...

[Jon] Bartlett also is charged in a separate case with calling in a bomb threat to his former police district station...

Bartlett's attorney, Bridget Boyle, said it was natural that her client, given his law enforcement career, would be interested in guns.

Naturally.

As long as they're for him.
