All of my guns are for killin'. I target my purchases to ensure the maximum killin' efficiency. I bought a Glock because I could get pre-ban clips for it and maximize the killin' capacity for my car gun. I bought my PPK/S because the key component of killin' with a gun is to have the gun when you meet someone who needs killin', and since the Glock was too hard to carry everywhere, I got something that was easier to carry (and more likely to get me laid, too.)

He is worried about gun-grabbers thinking of guns as killin' machines? They already think of them that way. No one gets killed in America by .50BMG sniper rifles, but that hasn't stopped Kookifornia from banning them. They can't look at one of those ray-gun .22 bolt-action target pistols without seeing big mounds of dead bodies in their mind.

I want people to remember that guns are for killin'. I want people to remember that the 2nd amendment is not about hunting. It isn't about punching holes in paper. It isn't about shooting clay pigeons. It is about killin' people. If you try to reduce the 2nd Amendment to paper targets and deer, you are just as dangerous as a gun-grabber.

Amen brudda!
The guy that emailed you is preaching to the choir.
It would be better as a gun owner if he would start enlightening and educationg those who are afraid of guns [with good reason I might add]. That guns are for killing, defensively.
Course I use mine for varmints too. *?)

As to the warning label for the common-sense-challenged that this is a parody site I hope it didn't rub you the wrong way.

A lot of the grief Rush Limbaugh gets is because many lefties just don't "get" his humor or realize that he is in fact not being serious a lot of the time. Rush is *very* funny and makes fun of the left to such a fine degree that it sails right over their head and merely infuriates them.

Another example; A parody political commercial on Rush's show about Arnold being the son of a Nazi with marching and Sieg Heil! in the background was thought to be REAL despite Rush clearly saying he ought to make one 20 minutes earlier. I was laughing so hard that day, more at the clueless people calling to complain than the commercial itself.

There will always be people who "don't get" parody of any stripe and its a real shame. Fortunately we tend to police each other out here in the blogosphere, so things don't get too far out of hand and end up hurting someone - for real.

Frank J. you rock, keep it coming.

Gee, these people don't realize you have a satire site? Nuking the moon didn't make them wonder? The hilarious polls right near the top of the page didn't make them think for a second that this might not be too serious of a site?

Idiots.

I vote for a permalink to Hamster Dance to keep them entertained.

Blog War Geneva Convention.

Article:

The Humorless shall be considered Non-Combatants, and not sought out for attack.

If a Humorless chooses to wade into the Blog Wars, they do so at their own risk.
Any humiliation is, thus, considered their own damned fault.

Any Humorless who venture in to wage war shall be considered Prime Targets.

The Nature of the Blog War shall be considered self-evident, such that any fool can tell for what they are getting into.

quark2,

What's the difference between killing defensively and killing varmints? Except that one is a foul, stinking, trash eating, scourge of the earth and the other is a furry (albeit annoying) little critter...

Yeah - I think I like it. Next time someone asks why you cc - tell them it's for kill'n varmints.

Jon--I have been enjoying your Blog War Geneva Convention Articles very much. Do I have your permission to post them to the Alliance Blog? (or maybe we could get a declared "neutral" blog like Tiger, Jennifer or Eric of Classical Values to post them?)

Either way, I think the entirety of this great (and apparently living) document needs to be codefied....(with updates as new Articles are ratified, of course...)

Good for you, Frank J, multiple kudos. And Frank Reynolds is an idiot. See today's Dilbert for what kind.

Gun for target practice? What is target practice? Is that where you have more than one person you need to kill, so you use two shots or the first few, but after the practice, you only need one shot on the last couple of bad guys?

Guns are designed and kept by peaceful citizens for their POTENTIAL to kill. All of my guns could kill humans and most beasts very well, but it is my hope that they never will kill a human. That would mean I've lived my whole life without being put in mortal danger by an aggressive human and that would be ideal and I think it is the true wish of most gun owners. Be prepared with a gun that can kill very very well and hope you never have to use it.

As to beasts, my .45-70gvt has quickly and humanely brought to heavenly slumber several tasty steaks on the hoof. That is one hell of a kill'n utensil. I would be really dissapointed and somewhat hungry if that cartridge hadn't been so well designed to kill.

Frank, your observations are absolutely correct and only need explaining to those with the intellect of a mollusk. Denying the truth is no way to gain undertanding to a cause, it just makes one look like a liar or an idiot.

Agreed Susie, we need Jon or someone else to compile all of them together in one spot. They are too damn amusing to lose.

Hey Frank, I think the dancing hamster site idea is brilliant. Maybe like all the porn sites (which I've only heard of???) you could have your IMAO welcome page with a small blurb describing the satirical content of your site. Have two buttons, one labeled smart and the other labeled dumb. And dumb would take you to the dancing hamster site where all the words could be single syllables displayed in big chunky letters just like a children’s book. And of course several cute fluffy dancing hamsters.

Dude!

You're site is satire? Dang it! And I was saving up for my own Robo-Suit of Uninhibited Capitalism too.

PS, tell Buck I said "Hey"

Here's a Hampsterdance site for the cognitively challenged.

Frank.

Why did you censor "soccermoms"?

Ay, carumba.

HEY! On a just barely-related note, I'm blegging for gun money! That's right...I've added a PayPal button to Exultate Justi (home of MYONGWATCH! as well as many other obscure tidbits!), and am hoping that, before I die (of natural causes), I can buy me a brand spankin' new AR-15! Then, I can REALLY do me some killin'...

Frank, don't bother with putting "This is Satire" signs. People who don't get it now will read "This is a Satire" sign and wonder if you are trying to trick them or something.

There lots of specimen out there running around whose "commomn ancestor" has nothing in common with your or your loyal readers ancestor and who arrived at their development stage by yet undiscovered evolutionary path.

Personally, I blame monkeys.

To those who commented on the BlogWar Geneva Convention Articles....

You're very kind, thank you. I'll continue to write them as they appear necessary, or as I think of them.

Which probably means I'm gonna have to read the Geneva Convention again. Damnit.

I'd just told another person that I would compile a few and she could post them on her Blog.
I suspect her motivation was to have a place for Alliance members to view them (oh, and linkage), and this would accomplish the same thing.
(you know....except for the Linkage)

With her permission, of course, I suspect the Alliance Page would be an ideal place.

I think your hate mail is much more fun than a possible disclaimer.

Unless it's "do not paint your face with house paint."

hln

Then you need to take that scrawny POS .380 back and get a real killer! Like the man said, "wet navy raincoat".

My three-year-old niece loves the "Hampster Dance" page. Are you calling her stupid, Ethel? Jerk.

(Too lazy to write a whole hate e-mail. Hate comment will have to do.)

Frank,

Amusement park rides at some place like Disney or Six Flags usually have a height limit or some sort of test to see whether a person can safely enjoy.

Likewise, maybe it would help to include this on your site:

http://butifnot.tripod.com/racecar.html

Heh. That idiots spelling was worse than mine. Why did you censor 'soccermoms?'

And .380s a fine round...you can still royaly fuck someone up with it. Funny thing is first time i read it i mistook .380 for .308...

I can censor whatever w--d I want; it's my site!

Alrig--y t--n.

and they came and shot guns at the passenger pigeons. and they killed for hours and hours. the floor of the florest was a thick carpet of death. not carpet bombing.
and than beavers were killed in great earnest.
and than they came in great numbers in iron horses and killed the bison for days on end. just to do it. a mindless activity much like slot machines.
you are people of the place beneath. a culture of death. destruction as amusement. to destroy is easy to create really scares you. go back to your caves.

It doesn't even make sense in context.

Also while the killer'n of bad people is fun and rewarding the creater'n of new ones is quite the thrill as well.

Here's the perfect site to send the dumb people:

Ha! You really had me going, Frank! I almost believed you about this being a satire site. Now, come on, and no more kidding. How do you manage to record exactly what Bush, Rumsfeld, and all the rest of those wacky folks in the executive branch say and do? If I didn't know better, I'd think you were making it up!

Deganawada,

You do realize that the whole culture of creators vs. culture of destroyers is mimicking some pretty standard White-supremacist talk. I'm not kidding, though the murdering of the Bison thing probably means you had another group for attacking in mind. I could pull quotes out of Mein Kampf disturbingly similar to what you just wrote.

I'm being a politically correct a-----e here and I'm sure you didn't mean it that way, but gain a sense of humor, lose a little self-importance and you will avoid making a silly argument like that in a more embarrassing situation.

Wait a minute....

You mean we're NOT going to nuke the moon?

Aw. I don't mind the serious competitive shooters getting a little haughty with all this talk of "kill'n." If I'd trained for an Olympic sport I might lose all sense of proportion, too.

It really is the hunters who bother me--the ones who forget that self-defense is a sacred right, and somehow think that what they do is more "wholesome," and the gun-grabbers will leave them alone and just take firearms away from us "defense nuts." (Of course, most hunters are not this dense. But a few are.)

They are wrong.

As for the stopping power of a .380--well, I wonder if this guy would like to take one to the chest. I wouldn't. Keep in mind that the mob uses .22's for hits (because they deform in impact, and are almost impossible to match to a gun).

If I am in a defensive situation with my smallest firearm (a .32) I promise to aim for the head.

Okay?

And anyone who doesn't "get" this site doesn't deserve it.

And, Jon--it really wasn't about the hits. I love you for your mind, too. ;) That is, I did really feel that the Geneva Convention rules should be posted in one place for all to see. Where that is ain't too important.l

As one mouth-watering billboard put it,

"There's room for all of God's creatures..

Right next to the mashed potatoes!"

:}

The mob not only uses .22's for hits because they deform, but because they are QUIET. Even the classic pillow to the barell will make the shot quiet enough not to be heard downstairs.
