We're the Only Ones All Fueled Up Enough

A man charged with the murder of 15-month-old Khensani Mitileni during this week's wild shootout in the Joburg CBD has killed himself.

He snatched a policeman's gun while in custody and shot himself in the chest...

At a petrol station in Greytown, while two policemen were apparently refuelling the car at 6.30am, the suspect managed to steal the firearm from the officer guarding him, police said.

Sure he did...

"There is No Need to Store a Firearm in Your Home"

The Motion to be tabled in the House of Commons calls for the establishment of Firearms Repositories in urban centres of more than 40,000 people. The Repositories will be secure installations where all firearms will be kept. Licenced firearms owners will have ready access to their weapons from the Repository.

“There is no need to store a firearm in your home if you live in an urban centre. ” Mr. Karygiannis further stated. “Those who live in rural areas need their firearms to protect their crops and livestock. This Motion will not stop all tragedies but if it prevents even one, it will have been effective.”

Jim Karygiannis said it, I believe it, that settles it.

Good news, though: Looks like the Canadians aren't falling for it.

Because the Law is What We Say it is

The state Supreme Court on Thursday upheld a city's restrictions on a gun show, but dissenters said the majority decision manages to circumvent state law that forbids cities from regulating gun shows on city property.

And we all know police chiefs would never abuse their authority and impose their political will in the name of public safety.

We're the Only Ones in Illinois

On Wednesday, we visited the Tammy Duckworth campaign to see what new political treachery is afoot in Illinois. Because I focused on only one aspect of the linked story, I've decided to revisit it to cover another important part:

Duckworth, surrounded by Illinois Fraternal Order of Police President Ted Street and Paul Helmke, president of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, said at a Lombard news conference that Roskam is "not looking out for the best interests of the 6th District."

The FOP standing hand-in-hand with gungrabbers--certainly no new development to those of us who have watched these things over the years, and their Illinois political endorsements offer no surprises in that regard.

So with their commitment to a disarmed citizenry well established, it's telling to find this on the front page of their official state newsletter:


Yep, we all know they've proven time and again how they're "The Only Ones" qualified to keep and bear arms. And they'll support the subversives, stump for the edicts and enforce the disarmament of their employers to prove it.

And if they have all the guns and no one else does, what's to stop them?

Guess What I Am?

I know, you don't have to guess, you already know.

It's always nice to confirm that the antis really have no arguments outside of their indignant and ignorant anger--they certainly have no rational excuse for being such wretches.

I'm actually surprised this doesn't happen more, and a bit disappointed, because it's generally pretty entertaining.

This Day in History: October 13
