At The Atlanta Journal Constitution in Gingrey’s home state, writer
Jay Bookman takes issue with the increasing trend of Americans
coming
to public meeting with deadly force in-tow. “It is attempted
intimidation,” he wrote. “It is an acknowledgment
that, lacking the intellectual firepower and ammunition to carry the
day, the person in question is prepared to try to settle the issue
using the kind of firepower and ammunition that any idiot can
purchase
at a local gunshop.”

Bookman continues: “It also reflects a growing mindset among some
that
the government just isn’t listening and thus must be made to listen,
one way or the other. There’s a fundamental childishness to that
attitude, a notion that equates listening to agreement. The person
in
question is not prepared to accept the idea that having listened to
him, a majority of his fellow Americans might decide that he is
wrong.
So he reserves the right to try to impose his view at the point of a
gun.”
Sooner rather than later, one of the gun-toting right-wing
nincompoops is going to open fire or "have an accident" or get into a
brawl with law enforcement.

When these armed idiots show up at public meetings at which the
president is going to appear, it increases the workload of the secret
service and local police forces.
Some kind of federal law restricting weapons within a couple thousand
feet of anywhere the President of member of congress may be is in
order
This is something you couldn't trust the individual states to
pass/enforce.
I've been practicing so I can handle the impending invasion of the
Loogy/JustHate Zombies...

First five shot group at 100 yards from the new ZombieKiller Rifle. I
was plopped on a ground cloth and using the rifle's built-in sights.
Took a couple of shots first to sight in for elevation...there wasn't
any wind.

Tomorrow I'm going to try some shots with the new scope I just
attached. Once I get used to it, I should be able to put five between
the eyes of your typical zombie at 100 yards.

I have an old semi-auto 22 cal rifle with a 6x scope that I haven't
fired in 25 years or so.
I should get it out and do some practice myself.... just in case those
'zombies' make it across the border. ;-)


Whatever you do - don't clean the barrel! The first shot will do that
for you.

What an idiot! He thinks zombies are real.


I deal with you, the freak and a motley assortment of your fellow irregulars
everyday.
Why wouldn't I believe in 'merican zombies?


The zombies in N O ignored the warnings for Katrina.
Bill will be knocking on your door Sunday.
Will we be calling you a zombie on Monday morning?

Nothing could be further from the truth. Unlike your BFF Harry, I do not
wish harm to people. Hope your ready. It could be a doozie.

How high are you ASL. That makes the biggest difference in these
things. You can survive the wind but the water will get you.


My house is about 160 feet above sea level.
The hugh mature trees in the backyard scare me.

Hugh trees were named for botanist Sir Dudley Hugh. A rare mutation of
the chestnut, the blight wiped them out and they are all but
forgotten.

We bike on what is known locally as the American Chestnut Land Trust, a
spot of land originally established to protect a large chestnut tree.
The trust now has several thousand wooded acres.

There are efforts long underway in Maryland to try to grow American
chestnut trees, and there have been many efforts to try to clone a
blight-resistant variety. I remember a couple of chestnut trees in
fields behind where our house was in New Haven, and the pods in which
the chestnuts grew. I'm sure the trees are long-gone now. They were big,
beautiful trees with large leaves.
