Graphic Overkill

This is the stupidest graphic I've seen since that college newspaper a few years back that showed a gun firing unexpended rounds--I just wasted time I don't have looking for that post so I could link to it and can't find it now.

This one? And two triggers. You can't forget the two triggers. [grin]

Well heck, Bear - dontcha know that it take two triggers to launch two fully loaded cartridges?

As for the other graphic, it's from Wired. They're alleged to be "experts" on stuff. If they claim that ".223 shells" were "used in the Newtown massacre" who are mere mundanes to argue the fact that a center-fire "shell" is inert and capable of no harm?

After all, they're "experts" and stuff. And morons believe "experts" like "authorized journalists," movie actors, and other neurotic, self-important, statist hoplophobes.

I'll give up my bullets. One at a time. At 2100 fps.

I'm familiar with the term "infographic," but I believe it's time for a new term: "disinfographic."

And, wow, Bear--that's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

Yeah, that's the one. That and the photo of the Iraqi woman holding up complete cartridges she says hit her house, and that time, it was the PROFESSIONAL "Authorized Journalists" who passed that along without knowing any better.

For those who don't recall the Iraqi bullets to which refers, HERE.

Oh, heck, if we're going to remind folks just how bad authorized urinalists are...

AK-15.

(Yeah, I really do save this stuff. Funny how some of it disappears off the 'Net.)

So long as I'm on a roll...
