Guy gets brand new conceal carry permit, immediately shoots himself. Well I feel safer.

"Hold it right there or I'll shoot myself in the leg. I mean it!"
Courtesy of KWCH: 

It happened inside a movie theatre at Central Mall during a showing Friday night. 

Police say the shooting was accidental. 

Witnesses it happened 45 minutes into the movie. 

"At first what popped into my mind was that someone popped a bag of candy or something and goofing off or something," said Heather Myers, who was inside the theatre when the shooting happened. 

Then seconds later, a man sitting three rows behind Heather and her husband Domenic, yells out for help. 

"This guy started shouting 'Oh my God, I just shot myself! I just got my concealed and carry,' and then everybody jumped up and that's when we heard call 9-11. 

According to Salina police, the man accidentally shot himself once in the leg.

You know this is really the only way these conceal carry idiots are going to keep us safe. By shooting themselves instead of an innocent bystander or family member.

    The Scary Supreme Court Case That Could Set Off A Literal Arms Race In The United States

    The Supreme Court appears to be giving serious consideration to a case that, if taken up by the justices, could strip lawmakers of much of what remains of their ability to address America’s gun violence epidemic — 33,636 people were killed by firearms in the United States in 2013. Indeed, should the justices ultimately side with the plaintiffs in this case, it could set off an arms race where gun makers and the National Rifle Association sprint to ensure that new methods of killing people are widely available as fast as possible so that those methods will gain special constitutional protection.

    Changing Times: Democrats Talking Again About New Gun Laws

    Democrats say support for new gun laws is broader and the politics of the issue have shifted enough to make the push for tougher measures a political winner.

    After 15 years of a virtual gag order on guns in presidential politics, Democrats are talking again.

  6. If they're going to help out, as you say, they're accuracy needs to improve immensely. Just wounding themselves isn't going to
    get it done. Kill shot, or nothing.

  7. Meanwhile, the bait and switch healthcare plan called "Obamacare" sticks it to Alaskans. Just like drug dealers giving free or cheap samples to get customers hooked then they take over your life.

      twodux ~ Why are you blaming this on President Obama? You know damn good and well the actual Affordable Care Act hardly resembles what the president proposed.

      The good stuff was blocked by the Astroglide-handed Republicans.

      The article you link to warns of something that "could" hit "in 2018, if no legislative changes are made." Yet you write about it (in response to an article about guns, without an "O/T" btw) as if it is already happening. I take it that this is what you are trying to say, by writing "meanwhile" instead of "coming in 2018", and "sticks it to Alaskans" instead of "will stick it to Alaskans if we don't do something."

      It's true that something needs to be done. How about a constructive call for action, as opposed to simple bad-mouthing?

      (10:27 AM has a good point, BTW)

    OK, this made me laugh really hard, Gryphen. Talk about paranoid.

    The hosts of Fox & Friends asserted over the weekend that Marvel’s Captain America had declared war on conservatives because a recent comic book story line had the superhero battling white supremacists.

    Conservative websites expressed outrage last week after a video released by the right-leaning MacIver Institute think tank suggested that Captain America’s latest villainous threat, Sons of the Serpent, represented real life conservatives who oppose Hispanic immigrants.

    A Fox & Friends segment on Saturday warned that Captain America’s new mission was to “target conservatives.”

    “He’s got a new odd enemy,” Fox News host Clayton Morris reported, noting that Captain America was now a black man. “Instead of going against Hydra and the typical Captain America villains, he’s going up against conservatives. That’s his new enemy.”

    Next time, call 911. Trust me, god won't show up.

    then everybody jumped up and that's when we heard call 9-11.

    True story. A gentleman tried calling 9-11 and could not - there's no 11 on the keypad. That's why you see it displayed as 9-1-1 - he sued the city of his residence and won a nominal sum.
