You probably thought my whole Good and Bad post on the soda ban was an over exaggerated joke right? Well I wasn’t laughing that much as I did the images and rightfully so it appears.
One member, Bruce Vladeck, thinks limiting the sizes for movie theater popcorn should be considered.
“The popcorn isn’t a whole lot better than the soda,” Vladeck said.
Another board member thinks milk drinks should fall under the size limits.
Seriously? Milk is bad!? While I’m not one to wish violence upon anyone. If you happen to see any of these individuals and you happen to land an egg on them, their vehicle, or other wise audibly and visually display your displeasure of their being tyrants, you will get my standing ovation.
Seriously, what has broken in American society so badly that people think they have a right to tell anyone else what they can and cannot eat. What the !@#$ is wrong with you asshat’s in New York. Evidently 46% of you love your tyrant overlords. If you don’t want it, don’t order it or eat it. You do not need the force of the state to do this, and you have no right to force your will upon others. Period!
My suggestion to those in New York, either stop it now or kiss your freedom good bye. You’re already not really American any more, if they can tell you what you can’t eat, next they will be telling you who you can and cannot date, how many children you can have, they will control your life. That is their goal. I understand that our side of this issue does everything to restrain themselves and avoid the cartridge box, but this overbearing control does beg the question, when should we shoot back?
Bloomberg* disarmed all his slaves constituents and has provided such a maze of firearms laws one must be anointed to have one. Other than voting the tyrant out of office what other actions can be taken? Even if you vote him out, how do you undo the damage. Even more than that though, if you do nothing, the tyrants know they can get away with this type of behavior.

Well at least he’s being charged. The person shot is yet another victim on the war on nouns. While there certainly appears that there was some chaos in that apartment, this definitely should be heading to a jury. It’s not quite accountabilibuddyable as he hasn’t been terminated from the department yet. There were no weapons found, however drugs were found according to an older article. It also appears that even their superiors were questioning their actions from the beginning.
Is the war on nouns really worth killing others over as well as basically giving police a blank kill someone over pot card? All of this is the inevitable result of these laws. Just because something is legal, doesn’t mean you have to do it.

Because a baggie of pot totally looks like a gun and is totally worth shooting someone over because you didn’t want to wait for someone else to “steal your glory”.

Eric Holder announced that he was shocked, shocked! to find that there
were leaks of classified information from the Obama administration, and
he would investigate it immediately. I have no idea how the newscaster read that line with a straight face;
this is like expecting the minister for Reich security in 1940s Germany
to investigate the mysterious disappearance of Jews.
[Yeah, the guy who ignored the voter intimidation by the black panthers; the guy who is currently being investigated for Fast and Furious, who may be charged with contempt; is going to investigate his buddy about leaks of classified information? Did I wake up in a parallel universe? Because they may utter those lies but we all know they’re lying.
Politicians and used car salesmen what do they have in common?
You can tell they’re lying when you see their lips flapping. -B]

Now supposedly this ban doesn’t affect places that sell things like grocery’s and convince stores unless they fall under the purview of the “health department”. I.E. this mainly affects fountain drinks. I don’t care, and the whole thing is absurd, especially when in light of the following: Continue reading →

So what, they couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn, is that really surprising for law enforcement? No, but this isn’t acceptable, especially given the fear was over a dog.
Some residents of the apartment complex complained that the shooting, which sent at least one bullet through an apartment door, was unnecessary and put residents in danger.
“I think this is appalling, seeing what I saw firsthand as a direct witness,” said Patti Meadows, who said she called police Internal Affairs to complain following the incident. “They put others’ lives in danger. This was not an environment to pull guns out.”
Meadows said she was standing near the officers on an upstairs walkway when they opened fire. The boxer dog wasn’t being aggressive, she said.
Another witness, Hailey Brown, told The Daily she offered to put the dog back inside the apartment after officers opened the door and let it out.
Some time’s you have to quote a chunk to illustrate the whole problem. Note the officers opened the door that let the dog out. The owner offered to take the dog and lock it up, instead they fire 13 shots into an apartment complex with innocent bystanders around. While in a good shoot, officers are often protected from the danger of a shoot through, this would be a hard justification. This story from Uncle today shows what should happen before officers discharge their weapons.
That was an aggressive dog that needed killing. A dog looking at you does not equal aggression, though many officers seem to feel that is the case. Unless it is obviously trying to bite you, suck it up there chief. Even more than that, let the barn latch on your arm so it won’t take 13 bullets to hit it in a friendly rich environment.
I will say they at least scored a 38% hit rate, however that makes me believe the dog wasn’t as mobile or aggressive as they claim. However this right here was the icing on the cake:
Wonder if they would say the same thing if it wasn’t officer friendly shooting through a dog, but instead a non-anointed citizen shooting through Cujo. We constantly hear about how we’re accountable for every bullet, and I’ve had conversations with friends whom I respect quite well and the above actually appears that it would hold true. However they would put it to a jury to decide, doubly if you were dealing with a local choir boy where you passed the initial interview.

Because when you’re bummed you’re on duty on New Years, shoot someone’s dog to liven it up. Leave your mics off then it’s your word against everyone else’s, don’t worry about safety though because there’s no criminal intent right!?

I still haven’t written up a couple posts from Boomershoot. It hasn’t been as much laziness as I have had other things of interest distracting me. From ideas, to projects, to wish lists(migrating the platform for the blog from Drupal)*.
There is one story from Boomershoot I do need to write up. The lesson though evidently was skipped over yesterday during some testing with Ry and Joe.
You see, after one of the boomers went boom, Ry had a new look.
I made the mistake of standing just slightly further back than Ry, not thinking about the amount of rain and how close we were. I had the same outfit afterwards.
(Yes it was cold).
Eventually I will write up a post on what happened at Boomershoot, one of the other reasons for the delay is it will also contain a review of the eye protection I’m wearing.
On to testing:
So Joe and Ry had a couple project ideas they were working on and I offered to go out and help. While they were working on mixing up explosives for some of the tests I worked on an idea Joe had for making primers go bang.
In this section, I verify that all that Hollywood crap is exactly that. Ry had a setup to create an arch between two wires with AC. It didn’t make the primer go boom. Joe had another idea using DC to make the primers go boom. Stuff got warm but still no joy. Then by luck I inadvertently made the circuit pass through a piece of metal in the primer construction. That turned into a light bulb filament. I attached a primer to it, rigged it up and gave that a shot. 10 seconds after connecting the battery I hear a pop. So heat, not electricity makes the primer go bang.
So they go bang, but not enough for solid computer control. Well we still have the question of will boomerite go off? Put it in the bag of boomerite, wire it all up and it was the most anti climatic thing I’ve ever seen. The pop was so faint I could hear the conversation between Ry and Joe who were further away than the primer.
So primers were a bust, what about the lift experiments for getting a good fuel air mixture? I have video for that, and everyone likes vide!
This is probably one of the more interesting stills from the testing.
You can see the water vapor form the lift, this was with ground under the targets. Ry also had some targets with bags of water underneath. I’m not sure it really made a difference, though it’s hard to tell with a sample size of one.
We have a new target type we’re seriously considering putting out for the shooters. This year things were a bit more difficult that usual. Target distribution didn’t end up in the amounts we would have preferred. This resulted in a lot more 4 and 3 inch targets on the hill than we would have liked. Believe me, I don’t like it when that goes wrong. I made a nice quote of the day that made everyone chuckle but no one remembered to actually blog it… yet another story to be told about this year.
The tubes though are 1.5 inches in diameter (inner) and 4 feet long. We figure we can put them horizontal or vertical. Either it will require precision on at least one axis to make a successful hit at distance. Personally I think they’d just be fun. Yeah you want to get a boomer, but if it was easy that wouldn’t be saying much now would it?
*I’m in the beginning stages of investigating moving from Drupal to WordPress. The latest version of Drupal is lacking a bunch of the features I want that help me with my blogging. I could write and build the features I need but I don’t blog as a forte into working on the computer. I have enough other projects that the last thing I want to do is work maintaining my website. The migration however has me a bit nervous mainly because I don’t want to break any incoming links for other sites to material I’ve written here. I think I have a solution to the issue, but even then it will probably take me about 48 hours to rip apart the databases and port the content to WordPress. I have a VM I am using as a testing area currently and I’m learning what exactly is going to have to happen and how to do it before I bite off more than I can chew.
