But it is culling the herd.
From the KMOV St. Louis website comes a story about a brainiac in Imperial, Missouri, 40-years-old James Looney who was teaching his girlfriend firearm safety.
In an alcohol induced haze the appropriately named Mr. Looney would show the different safety mechanisms to his girly girl, put the gun to his head, and ask if the gun would go off. Mr. Looney apparently did this with two other weapons and varied safety mechanisms, before the last one went off.
It only takes one bullet in the head to cull the herd.

441...Air McNair, Grounded
Permanently.
I first saw this on ESPN.com but it is everywhere as I write this.
Steve McNair, the thirteen year NFL veteran, the second Black man to start at quarterback in a Superbowl, was murdered late last night/early this morning in Nashville, Tennessee. He was found with a single gunshot wound to the head at the apartment of his girlfriend in downtown Nashville. She also perished.
Mr. McNair, who played the bulk of his career in Nashville with the Tennessee Titans, was only 36 years old when he passed.

335...Clucking Like A Chicken Illegal In Kingston
Kingston, Pennsylvania that is.
When accompanied by a firearm.
And threats to shoot.
WNEP16 in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the home of The Office, reports that Gerald Wiernusz is as dumb as a bag of hammers. That isn't the exact way they framed the story, but they could have.
Mr. Wiernusz got hisself locked up in Luzerne County after police said he threatened children with a gun and clucked like a chicken. The cops said a group of kids were playing basketball when the apparently drunk man waved a weapon and threatened to shoot anyone who came on his property. He then clucked like a chicken.
Mr. Wiernusz faces assault and terroristic threat charges in Luzerne County and is looking at many, many, many years in jail.

230...Bring A Gun To Church Day Follow Up
Post 217 alluded to the fact that Bring Your Gun To Church Day is coming fast.
The date has been fixed for the big day at New Bethel Church in Wilmington, Kentucky. It will be the last Saturday of June, the 27th.
The genius behind this event, safety first by the way, no loaded guns and no concealed guns, is Pastor Ken Pagnano. I first heard of this story when cruising Louisville, Kentucky TV station, WAVE3's website and was amazed both by the story and by Pastor Pagnano's shrewd reasoning regarding the event. He says that it is not about a show of arms but a show of love for the United States Constitution, especially the Second Amendment.
Proving that he is not only about guns, Pastor Pagano is encouraging church members to bring a canned good and a friend to the event. He said guns must be unloaded for insurance purposes and safety reasons. Again the point was not to mix worship with guns. "Firearms can be evil and they can be useful," he said. "We're just trying to promote responsible gun ownership and gun safety." And collect food for the poor.

180...Either It Is A Country, Or It Is Not
I love the Mohawks and the Akwesasne Nation, I really do. They have stones. Big ones, really, really big ones.
In today's Ottawa Citizen they, the Mohawk Warrior component of Akwesasne, are talking about shutting down the border with Canada if the Canadian border guards starting carrying guns, as planned, at midnight tonight.
Fair enough.
Except for a couple of things.
First off, the Yankee guards have been carrying since 1789; how come the Mohawk Warriors are not and have not shut down that border? Could it be that the United States government scares the f'k out of them and we, well, don't? If we don't, shouldn't we? You know, Teddy Roosevelt, "Walk softly, but carry a big stick."
Secondly, well, either they are a country, nation, state or not. Geez, isn't time for the Canadian government, that's you Prime Minister Steve, to man up here?
This nation within a nation thing, both for Quebec and Akwesasne is getting a bit tired. And, when you consider Akwesasne is partially inside Quebec, well, now you have a nation inside a nation inside a nation.
Confused?
I am.
Stay tuned, the s't is supposed to hit the fan at midnight tonight.
