Lookie here.

And last time I checked, I was running two points ahead of Rick Perry.

Damn.

Nevada Republican Congressvarmint Cresent Hardy is fixing to make me a personal enemy.

Hardy was speaking at a Libertarian event.

“I have three children,” Hardy explains. “One of them is summa cum laude and two were magna cum laude. The other one, he didn’t need an education. He works for Raytheon, smarter than all the rest. He works hard, he builds things that are genius. Some people have that ability.”

“But they all work hard. They are raising their own families,” he continued. “They will not be a drain on society, the best they can. Hopefully they will never have some disability that causes them to have to utilize that.”

Ahem, may I have a few words with Mr. Hardy?

Sir, my name is Susan Bankston and I am a representative on the State Democratic Executive Committee for Democrats with Disabilities.  That job leads me to know a whole lot of people with disabilities.  None of us chose to be disabled.  Not a single one.

Surprisingly enough, none of the disabled children I know chose to be disabled.  It just happened without their prior consent.  And, not one single disabled veteran has a life they have chosen for themselves.  They chose, unlike you, to serve their country in the military but they did not chose to come home in pieces.

We are sorry for being a drain on society.  Seriously, we are deeply apologetic for being born blind, deaf or lame.  We understand it was a easy way out to get multiple sclerosis, ALS, or alpha-1 antitrypsin and think that our lives are worth anywhere near as much as your child’s magna cum laude.

Look, you son of a motherless goat, you idiot fool.  You prance around with your deadbeat buddy Cliven Bundy who owes the taxpayers about a million damn dollars.  You say that Cliven is a hero but a working father with ALS is a drain or that a child with cerebral palsy is hurting society.

Sir, and I’m speaking only for myself here, you are a a jackass sumbitch and I ever see you, I’m going to run over you with a wheelchair.  There ain’t a grand jury in America who would indict me for it.

So sometimes the gene pool needs cleaning out and these two guys were doing their part.

Fun With Guns is only fun if no one dies other than the gun nut.  In this case, there were no good guys and bad guys, only idiot guys.

Road rage in Michigan.

Witnesses say that Pullum pulled into the parking lot of a car wash and Taylor who was at the time tailgating him followed him in. Both men exited their vehicles and began to argue as the argument escalated, Taylor pulled his gun and began to fire. Pullum, who was also carrying a gun, drew his and returned fire. Both men apparently died at the scene.

Yeah, gun fight at the car wash corral.

Thanks to Glen and Alan in Austin for the heads up.

O! this is Sweet, sweet, SWEET schadenfreude and delicious irony. The Rightistas are all in a rush to militarize our cops and sweep our streets clean with a hail of gunfire from armored RVs, each emblazoned with a Crusader’s Cross. Gone are the days of “he must be guilty, otherwise the cops would never have arrested him.” Instead, it’s been juiced up to “he must be guilty, otherwise the cops would not have shot him.”

Beat downs on bikini-clad black 14-year-old girls who have done nothing? No problem!

But just try, try! to pull over a middle-aged, white, Sovereign Citizen who thinks he knows the Constitution, the Bible and the entire Code of the State of by-Gawd Texas.

Hilarity ensues.

Arizona gets today’s standing ovation.

Mohave County Sheriff’s deputies said a Kingman man was treated for a gunshot wound Tuesday when he accidentally shot himself while taking off his holstered gun.

The man shot himself in his upper left thigh and was transported to Kingman Regional Medical Center.

Just like the cowboys used to do it.
