  • Firearms Friday: Vhyrus After Dark

    I wasn’t going to even do a FF this week since there wasn’t much to talk about, but I’m sitting here at work not wanting to work so I figured fuck it, let’s go for it.

    The big story: D.C. will officially be ‘shall issue’ come next week. Unless of course they try to weasel out of it, which they will, so don’t hold your breath. Interestingly not a single judge on the panel voted for En Banc. A sign of the times?

    The big non-story: The SHARE act did not come up for a vote this week (at least not of this writing). So a big fuck you very much to congress, who once again can’t do shit that everyone wants. No link, cause how can you link to something NOT happening?

    The PMag is now authorized for requisition by the US Army at a unit level, putting it one step away from mass adoption as GI equipment for the entire US military. Yes, I know how unimportant this is in the broad scheme of things. It’s a slow week.

    If you look in the dictionary for ‘hypocrisy’, you may find an entry for Camiella Williams, a self admitted juvenile gang banger turned anti gun activist that has her concealed carry license and regularly carries a gun while working to strip other people of those same rights. Can I get a fuck off slaver?

    Who wants a 10mm hi-point carbine? I think I might!

    Bass Pro Shops officially closes the deal on the buyout of Cabelas for $4 billion dollars. I always liked Cabelas more than Bass Pro so I don’t have high hopes for this one.

    Here’s an awesome video of transparent suppressors being used in slow motion.

    Finally today, I leave you with a sad bit of news. It is with deep emotion that I announce that CarnikCon is officially dead. The channel and all of the videos have been officially removed from Youtube by the creator, Dugan Ashley.

    Goodnight, sweet prince; And flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

    Luckily someone was smart enough to archive all of the videos for posterity. Some heroes don’t wear capes.

     

  • ZARDOZ FRIDAY NIGHT LINKS

    ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN ONES. NORMALLY ZARDOZ IS ALL IN FAVOR OF BRUTALS BEING CLEANSED (ASIDE FROM HIS CHOSEN ONES, OF COURSE) – BUT ZARDOZ IS SAD THAT HIS COUNTRY MUSIC INSPIRATION, GLENN CAMPBELL, HAS PERISHED.

    ZARDOZ WISHED TO HONOR HIM, SO HE HAS THE BRUTALS IN THE BAND WORKING WITH HIM ON A TRIBUTE VERSION OF ONE OF HIS SONGS:

    I am a brutal enforcer for the Vortex
    And I fly the main road
    Searchin’ in the sun for another brutal victim load
    I hear you screamin’ in the razor wire,
    I can hear you through the bullets whine
    And the brutal enforcer is still on the firing line

    I know I need a small vacation
    But it don’t look like a delivery of grain
    And if it snows that force field down south won’t ever stand the strain
    And I need the gun more than want the gun,
    And I want you for all cleansing time
    And the brutal enforcer is still on the firing line

    And I need the gun more than want the gun,
    And I want you for all cleansing time
    And the brutal enforcer is still on the firing line

    BUT ZARDOZ HAS NOT FORGOTTEN HIS CHOSEN ONES, AND THEREFORE, RECIEVE THE GIFT OF THE GUN LINK:

    • VISIT ZARDOZ’S INSPIRATION HERE.
    • WHILE NO CHIPOTLE, IT APPEARS BRUTAL DINING CHAIN HAS MADE ERRORS.
    • BRUTAL ENFORCER IN CHICAGO ACTUALLY CONVICTED OF CRIME. BUT NOT ONE AGAINST BRUTALS, RATHER, ONE AGAINST FELLOW ENFORCERS.
    • SPEAKING OF BRUTAL ENFORCERS – PERHAPS A NEW TYPE HAS EMERGED?
  • Rest in Peace, Almanian

    It is with great sadness that I inform the Glibertarians.com readership of the passing of Almanian, a longtime Reason commenter.

    After a lengthy battle with cancer, he succumbed to his illness this weekend, surrounded by family and friends.

    I am withholding his real name out of respect for his family’s privacy, and I would ask that you do the same in the comments.

    If you have any memories that you would like to share, please do so below.

     

    ON TOPIC ONLY.

     

    Goodbye, friend.   You will be missed.
