Ammo Blammo

What, you thought this is some kind of pacifist blog or something????

Dear lord, Give us our daily delivery of firearms news bulletins.

An item from Jon Stewart about open carry demonstrations. Apparently some of the open carry demos are too far out there even for SOME members of the NRA. Not to mention all those odd members of the public who seem unable to tell the difference between good guys with guns and bad guys with guns. Link offered with comment stream RantWoman has no time to read:

RantWoman regretably has neither time nor brain space to read up on the motives of the shooting that generated the #YesAllWomen tag. Sigh.

RantWoman is touched by all the media accounts of the recent gun violence at Seattle Pacific University, #SPUShooting. RantWoman is touched by all the prayer services and how many of the students interviewed pray first, second, third...

RantWoman offers heartfelt prayers always for someone she knows who goes every year near Mother's Day to the Bangor submarine base to protest Trident submarines. RantWoman offers prayers for this witness, prayers for the spouse of the person doing this witness. RantWoman admits, that despite other topical personal history she has never felt any leading whatsoever to go participate in such witness specifically at Bangor. RantWoman's current excuse: too many idiots with guns demanding prayers in RantWoman's own 'hood!

RantWoman complained recently during a committee check-in: look, there are just too many idiots with guns loose in my 'hood. In particular, 4 gun murders within one week and two spells of pairs of cars driving down the street shooting at each other. RantWoman is unsure of the make in one case; in the other case, Why the HECK ya gotta do that in BMWs?  Just sayin'

And in other news, in particular bus-board discussions of Irrepressible Nephew and Nerf weaponry, consider  BIODEGRADEABLE AMMUNITION!?!?!?!? Why, the thought of biodegradeable ammo is JUST ABOUT enough to keep RantWoman from wanting to crawl under the carpet. Oh, wait, no carpet aboard Metro...
