Stuff you never knew about shotguns

Here’s another reason why you – and your friends and family – should prep:

Guns are icky: NY Daily News writer gets temporary PTSD from the horrors of shooting an AR.

There isn’t much point in piling on the Delta male reporter mentioned, since above-linked article does such a good job of it. And there really isn’t any good reason to try to Greek-alphabetize President Obama in regards to the whole AR-15 hammer-of-doom, autonomous-baby-killer smoke screen, mainly because his goals have nothing to do with the personal safety of the herd members.

But facts are facts. Click on the table at right to see for yourself.

My point eggs-actly in the FBI chart. 300+ million population. Death by rifle (not all are ARs)=248 for 2014. Again, what's the problem? Oh, bloviating politicians addressing a NON-issue. Way to many "YES" votes yesterday.

Kinda a lightweight article. But it does show that shotguns kill more every year than assault rifles (leftest daffynition). And look at handguns.

So, the banning will never stop once they get that first pickle out of the jar.

With that name it is clear he is descended of generations of Pajama Boys. I had hoped they were unable to reproduce. This is bad news.

Survival rate from being shot with a handgun is much higher than if a shotgun is used.

Germans in WWI knew this. Look up `trench gun’.

The original article is unbelievable. This guy is a putz, a shmuck, at the risk of insulting little girls I would call him a scared little girl. On the weekend I had the pleasure of going to a range and shooting an old Enfield bolt action and an AR. He writes, I comment:

The recoil bruised my shoulder, which can happen if you don't know what you're doing.

You have to really not know what you are doing to get a bruise. The AR recoil is nothing like the Enfield.

The brass shell casings disoriented me as they flew past my face.

What a freaking putz! Do passing cars or birds disorient you too? Black cats? Thunderstorms?

The smell of sulfur and destruction made me sick.

Strong stomach, Gersh. What were you shooting at that the destruction made you sick. We destroyed a paper target.

The explosions — loud like a bomb — gave me a temporary form of PTSD.

Are you kidding me??? Were people shooting back at you?

For at least an hour after firing the gun just a few times, I was anxious and irritable.

I don't know what to say to this. This guy should stay indoors at all times, he might melt in a rainstorm.

Having some training in the German language, that name would be trans-alliterated to

KOOTS-mahn.

With all disrespect to Hillary’s vagina!

Is he left handed? Otherwise, how could that possibly happen?

My daughter shot 7.62mm this weekend and I have a photo of her smiling.

My little daughter is about 100 x the man of this Kuntzman fellow.

"So, the banning will never stop once they get that first pickle out of the jar."

It's important for people to understand that their strategy is one of incrementalism. Their goal is a complete ban on private ownership of firearms (and anything else that can be construed as a weapon, like knives in Britain). They want to accomplish this one "sensible" gun law at a time. The reason they won't punish criminal misuse of weapons is because criminals, like other types of human trash are large and important constituency groups for politicians. That and the fact that the self-serving, rapacious, greedy and corrupt American political class fervently believes that the government should have a monopoly on the use of violence. There has never been a more important time in our country's history for citizens to own personal weapons and acquire skill in their use. Half of American society is literally descending into barbarism, and there's great danger ahead.

Ah yes. I've been told by nefarious sources that if ya find a proctologist at a party ya need to stay in their vicinity.

The wimp should be institutionalized. What a poor excuse for a man...for a human being.

Kuntzman has provided parody fodder for YEARS to come.

For example. . .

Pajama Boys are just Darwinism, awaiting that fateful moment ... hopefully BEFORE they procreate!

How does that 8-yr-old consider protecting Hillary’s vagina?

In the end...what is more dangerous? An AR-15 in the hands of a trained shooter or...Hillary’s vagina?

You make the call!

The vagina has been used fewer times. The aroma is something else.
