Anti-Gun Senator: This Homemade Weapon Can Shred an Airplane in Half!

What happens when you mix an illogical fear of guns with profound ignorance?

You get Kevin de Leon, a California State Senator and rabid anti-gun nut from Los Angeles, going on television and demonstrating that he is now illiterate in three languages.

Democrat de Leon has introduced a bill, SB808, addresses homemade weapons, which he calls "ghost guns".  His bill would require the makers of all homemade guns, including those produced by 3D printers,  to apply to the state DOJ for a serial number to be applied to the gun, and that a piece of metal be made a permanent part of the gun, so that the weapon could be seen by metal detectors.
Magazine vs. Clip

For starters, his bill makes no sense, and is just another feel-good piece of paper that he can take back to his constituents and say, "Look what I did!" Yes, the gun he is holding is homemade, but it is also fully automatic (by his own admission), which already makes it illegal. Does he really believe that the person, or the people who make this and other "ghost" guns are going to voluntarily contact the DOJ to have a serial number issued?  WHY do so many people think that our elected officials are so smart? They're not!  The people who are making or buying these weapons are either acquiring them as "throwaways", or people who are concerned with a coming tyrannical government may start to produce them.  Neither one is are going to apply for a serial number.

Kevin de Leon then goes on to prove to the whole world that he has never handled or been around a weapon his whole life, as he makes a glaring number of farcical statements about the weapon in his hands, including that it has a firing rate nearly that of a military phalanx system, which can shred an airplane or missile in half.

He picks up one weapon and swings it around with his finger inside the trigger guard and on the trigger.  Safety first, Kevin! He then picks up another weapon, which he calls "an automatic sniper weapon".  This is getting hysterical.  A sniper, by the very nature of his job, would never use an automatic rifle.  They are single shot bolt actions or semi-auto.

Mixing up clips, magazines, and caliber and capacity, his entire demonstration was, as they say, "a hot mess". He comes off as someone who was thrust into doing a demonstration at the last minute, yet he is the one who is the author of the bill!  The supposed expert! In reality, he is just another typical liberal, reacting emotionally to something of which he has zero knowledge, thus unable to make a coherent intellectual case.  Because there is no case to make.  His SB808 bill is intellectually vapid.  A "feel good" measure. It will have ZERO effect on the sale or manufacture of these weapons because they are already a black market item.

Meanwhile, these same idiots are doing their best to make it as difficult as possible for law-abiding people to get legal guns and ammunition to protect themselves and their families from criminals who are able to get their weapons and ammo easily.

Thanks, Mr. Wizard!

Start Of Chick-Fil-A "Kiss-In" Day Begins With Vandalism

Posted by Brian
The oh-so-tolerant left constantly preaches that we must be more accepting of whatever their leftist cause celebre of the week is.  Disagree with the US accepting sharia law? You're an Islamophobe.  Leftist members of the Catholic Church who don't agree with some of its tenets? The Church should change their teachings.  Do you disagree with the idea of man-made Global warming?  You're a flat-earth global warming denier.

The truth is that tolerance among the left is in short supply. That is, if it is a cause that they support. In the mind of a leftist, there is no room for dissension or diversity of thought.  It is George Orwell's "Ingsoc", where independent thought is criminalized, and Newspeak narrows the vocabulary in which to verbalize those thoughts.  Don't believe it? NYC schools submitted a list of 50 words to eliminate from tests because it might make some kids uncomfortable.  George Carlin and Richard Pryor must be rolling over in their respective graves! These are men who pushed the boundaries using words that today would get them labeled bigots, or worse.  One thing is for certain: a SNL skit by Pryor and Chevy Chase would never make it on the air today, as it contained the word "nigger", which is never to be uttered today, even in an historical context such as "Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn", which some have tried to have banned from schools due to that word being in the book.

On Wednesday, tens of thousands of Americans exercised the 1st Amendment right to defend the right of another American, Chick-Fil-A CEO Dan Cathy, to speak freely of his opinion that marriage is the union of one man and one woman.  Agree or disagree, this is his opinion.  We don't have to like it, but it's his.  For expressing his opinion, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel , and the mayors several other cities said that Chick-Fil-A was not welcome in their cities, with a Chicago Alderman threatening to get a Chick-Fil-A business permit disapproved in his district.  This is not only unAmerican, but it is facist! Americans recognized this and flocked to Chick-Fil-A in support.  Not for what he said, but for the attempts of government officials to punish and silence him for having an opinion they disagree with.

So today is a counter-protest, with LGBT groups purportedly going to go to Chick-Fil-A's around the country and have a "kiss-in", to protest Mr. Cathy's opinion. I fully support their right to do so.  But, what exactly are they protesting?  Note that Chick-Fil-A does not discriminate in hiring people who are gay, or for religious reasons.  Nor do they refuse to serve people who are gay.  They are protesting his "opinion", and that he had the unmitigated gall to actually give it!

Yet morons like Roseanne Barr are on Twitter (below) claiming that Mr. Cathy's opinion creates a hostile work environment for Chick-Fil-A employees who are gay!  Tell me Roseanne, would that mean that openly gay CEO's who actively promote pro-LGBT causes are creating hostile work environments for their employees who are Christians?


Apparently for others, even the "kiss-in" wasn't enough, as employees at an LA Chick-Fil-A went to work to find that their business had been vandalized with graffiti. As has become common among the left and the Occupy mobs recently, criminal acts seem to accompany leftist protests and gatherings.  Their ginned up and sanctimonious anger seems to make them incapable of conducting themselves civilly, or lawfully.  Violence and/or vile acts just seem to naturally follow these malcontents. In fact, they celebrate those who are arrested, or who they view as "sticking it to the man".

They may find out in November that who's taking back the power won't be them.

Chick-fil-A 'kiss' day marred by 'Tastes like hate' graffiti
August 3, 2012 |  7:37 am

On a day that some gay-rights activists are planning a "National Same-Sex Kiss Day," a Chick-fil-A in Torrance was vandalized overnight with hateful graffiti.

Chick-fil-A employees were greeted Fridays morning with the words "Tastes like hate" scrawled in large black lettering mimicking the chain's advertising across the back wall of the restaurant at 182nd Street and Hawthorne Boulevard in Torrance.

With media helicopters hovering overhead and police officers on the scene, one employee said, "I'm just trying to sort everything out."

Govt. Gone Wild: LA Bans Footballs, Frisbees On Beach

Posted by Brian
Oh. And if your little crumb cruncher digs a hole in the sand deeper than 18 inches, that will also get you fined. Insanity continues on the left coast.


LA County OKs $1,000 Fine For Throwing Football, Frisbee On Beaches

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — When you head down to the beach for a little fun this summer, county officials want you to leave the pigskin at home.
The Board of Supervisors this week agreed to raise fines to up to $1,000 for anyone who throws a football or a Frisbee on any beach in Los Angeles County.
In passing the 37-page ordinance on Tuesday, officials sought to outline responsibilities for law enforcement and other public agencies while also providing clarification on beach-goer activities that could potentially disrupt or even injure the public.
