What wine goes with Squab? Home - by GUEST - March 4, 2012 - 17:00 America/New_York - 25 Comments Pigeon Shooters Blast Animal-Rights Drone From Sky SHARK (Showing Animals Respect and Kindness) says their drone was shot down in retaliation for their disruption of a South Carolina pigeon shoot. An Illinois-based animal-advocacy group called SHARK (Showing Animals Respect and Kindness) recently planned to disrupt a South Carolina pigeon shoot by using a remote-controlled drone copter to film the pointless and cruel event. SHARK President Steve Hindi told The Times and Democrat that he and his group were just about to launch the Mikrokopter when a lawyer and the police tried to stop them. The police claimed to represent the privately owned plantation where the shoot was set to take place. “It didn’t work; what SHARK was doing was perfectly legal,” Hindi said in a news release. “Once they knew nothing was going to stop us, the shooting stopped and the cars lined up to leave.” SHARK decided to send the drone up anyway. “Seconds after it hit the air, numerous shots rang out,” Hindi said. “As an act of revenge for us shutting down the pigeon slaughter, they shot down our copter.”
Pigeon slaughter, oh my!!! If they fed the pigeons to the needy would that have made it ok..? On the topic of remote drones increasing over the US in the next ten years it is estimated there may be up to 80,000 drones flying overhead. Part of the problem at the moment is the FAA is trying to figure how to regulate all these buzz machines. My question is one of privacy and what the ramifications are if a camera equipped drone flies over head on private property and becomes target practice for those of us ready and willing to repel the alien invasion... 8)
The Rabbit Died Home - by BigFurHat - March 16, 2012 - 16:29 America/New_York - 22 Comments And now we present a story that will either bum you out and make you cry, or will get you giggling the giggle that is reserved for inappropriate places like funerals and hospital rooms. For the record, I’m saddened and simultaneously guiltily entertained by the tragic conclusion to an event that probably had too much fanfare to begin with. NY DAilyNEws - An earless rabbit poised to be a German zoo’s star attraction was stepped on and killed by a cameraman covering the bunny’s first press conference. The tragedy Thursday in Limbach-Oberfrohna left the clumsy cameraman distraught and zookeepers in tears. The bunny dubbed Tiny Til was set to be introduced as one of the cutest rarities in the world when catastrophe struck. This is the before picture “He was immediately dead, he didn’t suffer. It was a direct hit. No one could have foreseen this. Everyone here is upset. The cameraman was distraught,” zoo boss Uwe Dempewolf told Spiegel Online. The brown-and-tan bunny was born in a litter of six three weeks ago, but was the only one missing its ears. The rabbit will be cut up and sold in the form of “lucky feet” in the zoo’s gift shop.
California: Brady Campaign admits gun laws don’t work Home - by Cardigan - April 8, 2012 - 17:30 America/New_York - 7 Comments NRA-ILA California’s gun laws are the toughest of any state in the nation, but they could not prevent this week’s East Oakland shooting that left seven people dead. And short of banning semi automatic weapons, it’s unlikely that any new laws could prevent someone from going on a shooting spree with the weapon that authorities say One L. Goh used to kill students at Oikos University. Even some of the most ardent gun control advocates believe that’s the case. “It wasn’t a failure of laws,” said Amanda Wilcox, who along with her husband, Nick, lobbies for the California chapter of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence. “I just don’t see how our gun laws could have stopped something like that.”
Obama: I Used To Eat Dog Meat, It Was “Tough”… The left is utterly obsessed with Romney’s decades old story about his dog riding in a crate on top of his car, if they think that’s bad then what do they make of The One feasting on the flesh of Rover? From Chapter two of Obama’s Dreams from My Father: “With Lolo, I learned how to eat small green chill peppers raw with dinner (plenty of rice), and, away from the dinner table, I was introduced to dog meat (tough), snake meat (tougher), and roasted grasshopper (crunchy). Like many Indonesians, Lolo followed a brand of Islam that could make room for the remnants of more ancient animist and Hindu faiths. He explained that a man took on the powers of whatever he ate: One day soon, he promised, he would bring home a piece of tiger meat for us to share.”

Hey, that cute talking dog is back! Home - by BigFurHat - April 18, 2012 - 15:07 America/New_York - 27 Comments The left, once again, eats their own shitty crow. They made a huge deal about Romney’s dog being in a crate on top of their car, which is far worse than being on top of rice in the Obama household. I do believe the meme about Romney and his dog, or ANYONE and their dogs, is not going to be a topic of discussion any longer. The talking point memo has immolated in their faces like a Bill Ayers pipe bomb. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/Ah6lYxIsFt8?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0"></iframe>

Jesse Jackson: We Are Going To March On Gun Shops Across The Country… Via Town Hall’s Katie Pavlich: Last night in Racine, Wisconsin, while demanding jobs for the unemployed, Jesse Jackson decided to slam job creating gun dealers and called for a march on gun shops all over the country.

Jesse Jackson Holds Gun Store Protest, 3 People Show Up… Too funny. DETROIT — This past Saturday, the anachronistic and increasingly irrelevant Reverend Jesse Jackson called for an anti-violence rally against 25 gun ranges in the United States. Despite his personal indiscretions, he somehow felt justified to ask dads during Fathers Day Weekend all across our great nation to adopt his mantra of “Guns Out = Jobs In.” According to the puzzling logic of Jackson, the local communities where the targeted gun shops operate are stifling the creation of jobs, which if you believe Jackson, is the root cause of urban violence. Somehow, Jackson manages to ignore the fact that these gun ranges employ people, including African Americans like myself, who pay taxes. Also, those very same businesses pay income taxes and collect sales taxes on relatively expensive products. The dirty little secret is that there are no operating gun ranges within the geographical borders of Detroit. He obviously chose Action Impact because it is located just outside the city of Detroit border. Thusly, the entire premise of Jackson’s anti-gun campaign has been proven to be false. As mentioned earlier, there are no gun shops in Detroit. So, where are the jobs? Moreover, Jackson’s so-called rally at the Action Impact gun range did have an unintended effect. He actually brought the so-called divided people - whites and blacks - together to mount a counter-protest. Jackson’s designated minion, the Operation Push Detroit Chairman, and two other people doubling as props were given a most proper reception from about 50 freedom and gun loving folks of all hues.
