We’ll Get There Fast and Then We’ll Take It Slow

A well-known politician in the Bahamas was fatally shot on Wednesday during an armed robbery, police said. Two gunmen opened fire on a group of people outside of an unspecified business establishment in a neighborhood near Nassau… [More]

Gomer…?

Firearms, ammunition, and other weapons are not permitted in The Bahamas. According to The Bahamas Firearms Act, individuals found to have a firearm or ammunition in their possession without a legally issued Bahamian gun license face a penalty of up to 10 years’ incarceration and $10,000 fine.

Bermuda, Bahama, come on pretty mama…

The Everytown island life isn’t for everybody.

It’s All in the Presentation

At least tell me they weren’t also “aspiring rappers“…

Assault Weapon-Operating Maniac Mows Down Innocents

Car plows into couple, killing wife, leaving husband devastated… He threatened to shoot a school, bomb a building and assault police. [More]

Even thnough the automatic murder weapon was a licensed and registered, there’s only one thing to do.

Sue themanufacturer. I’ll bet if you look up cars involved in fatal accidents and crimes, you’d also be able to identify “bad apple dealers.”

Proper Use of the Term ‘Assault Weapons’

Hanley detailed Soto’s violent spree that included stabbing and running over a mail carrier with a car, breaking into multiple homes and attacking three juveniles with a bat. [More]

And it took men threatening him with guns to get him to get the lunatic to act in rational self-interest and stop? I wonder if Rockford being mostly Democrat had anything to do with those men being “Only Ones” instead of neighbors…

Busting Morons for Headlines

A Cleveland man who made thousands of dollars by buying and selling guns used in shootings and homicides said little on Tuesday as a federal judge sentenced him to more than 11 years in prison. Kenneth Smith, 23, apologized for selling 32 guns to undercover federal agents in less than three weeks, netting $24,000. The guns had been used in 30 shootings, including several homicides. [More]

The rest of the story is paywalled and the only other thing I could find is he did all this while being a “prohibited person” himself:

KENNETH SMITH, 23, East Cleveland, was charged with Engaging in the Business of Dealing Firearms without a Federal Firearms License, Illegal Possession of a Machinegun, and being a Felon in Possession of Firearms.

It does raise the question why they needed to drag it out over 32 guns and three weeks when one sale could have done the trick, and for some reason a South Park bust comes to mind (NSFW).

Where the Grabbers Get Those ‘Women and Guns’ Statistics

A Tennessee mother is mourning the death of her teen daughter after police said that she accidentally shot and killed her while rummaging in her purse for her keys. [More]

It sounds like being oblivious to how things work and not taking any one of several appropriate available precautions made her a walking IED.

I’m just not seeing acceptance of responsibility.

Quite the opposite, in fact
