Fun With Guns: It’s a Two-Fer Edition

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

the_duel_by_jasinski-d2zvm28Fun 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.

Sovereign my Sweet Aunt Fanny!

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.

Fun With Guns: I’m Singing the Holster Blues

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.

 

Oh, East Texas, You’re So Cute.

Sisters in Overton, Texas, decided to sell lemonade to raise money for a Father’s Day present.

That’s until the long arm of the law set them straight.  Chief Clyde Carter was on the job.

Hey, I thought Republicans believed in free enterprise and the business of business.  They don’t need no stinkin’ permit to to screw up our banking system.

Well, it could have been worse.  If they had been black, they’d be in jail.

 

Is This Crap Required?

Just when you think rightwing Republicans are going to run out of child molesters, they don’t.

grid-cell-8004-1433984404-19John Perry, a prolific author who co-wrote two books with former Arkansas governor and presidential candidate Mike Huckabee and co-wrote one with Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore, was accused of child molestation in two separate lawsuits.

… a police investigation launched in 2012 found the allegations against Perry “were sustained,” according to a police department spokesperson, but that statute of limitations had passed.

“The alleged sexual battery was reported to have occurred when the victim was between the ages of 11 and 14,” said Nashville police department spokesperson Don Aaron in a statement to BuzzFeed News.

Okay, so this means that the ghost writer of such judgmental and rigid works as Character Is the Issue and Do the Right Thing just might need to shut the hell up.

Seriously y’all, I’m beginning to believe that a pervert is required at every rightwing meeting.

Thanks to Charles for the heads up.

No, Ben Carson, No

Let’s add Ben Carson to our growing list of Republicans Who Want to Destroy America and Claim Obama Did It.

Y'all, that could be a tin foil hat.

Y’all, that could be a tin foil hat.

Ben Carson has himself one dandy idea about how to make government work.

Republican presidential contender Ben Carson said Wednesday that if elected next year he might implement a “covert division” of government workers who spy on their coworkers to improve government efficiency.

The pediatric neurosurgeon-turned-candidate told a crowd of Iowa Republicans he is “thinking very seriously” about adding “a covert division of people who look like the people in this room, who monitor what government people do.”

Helluva an idea, Carson.  But I think Stalin already tried it.

Thanks to Wanda for the heads up.
