A "surly curmudgeon[], suspicious and lacking in altruism." (Robert A. Heinlein)
A good Junk Science report on Fox today.
[A]n October 2001 report by California state ballistics experts — hushed up by the California attorney general’s office — concludes that ballistic fingerprinting isn’t feasible right now.
It gets better:
Maryland and New York already require ballistic fingerprinting. So far it hasn’t helped convict a single criminal in Maryland despite “fingerprinting” 17,000 guns sold since January 2000. New York hasn’t had success either.
Read the whole thing.
Good.
Now string his ass up. Oh, wait, we can’t do that. We promised the frogs we wouldn’t in exchange for extraditing him.
Well…fuck the frogs, exterminate this vermin anyway.
The Professor speaks on an international right to bear arms, but with a twist — they’re protection against genocide.
Exactly the reason I’m armed. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: They’re not going to drag me off to the gas chamber like they did my Austrian relatives. The fact that having weapons is also protection against random idiots who try to break into my home is just icing on the cake.
of the latest Zogby polls by Patrick Ruffini (link via the Professor). Frankly, when I checked the polls yesterday over at RealClearPolitics, they didn’t seem to make a damn bit of sense when contrasted with other polling outlets. Ruffini is saying the same think I was thinking at the time, except that I didn’t tie the polling Zogby to his anti-Semitic brother, who writes for the Arab News and pops up every now and then as a talking head plumping for the Palestinians.
If this is true, I probably won’t ever trust a Zogby poll again. Not that I trust polls to start with.
Trying to get product out the door at work. I imagine light posting today and tomorrow, maybe back up to speed next week.
I know I’m late on this but I think this is just fantastic.
A few more such incidents and maybe even my wife will get with the “carry a gun” program.
Farideh Tehrani makes an impassioned plea from inside the Islamic Republic.
Sorry for lack of postings. Maybe a few later.
Nice day for the Dow and Nasdaq.
AOL’s still in the tank. Maybe I should buy some shares at $12. (Should have bought them last week at $7, but I’m a coward when it comes to investments.)
…they never will be missed…”
Where do they get those wonderful toys?
