Jesse Jackson: There's a 'Ferguson' near you

Gun Sales Up Across Area: Sales have quadrupled at ‘Metro Shooting’ in Bridgeton according to owner Steven King.
He says sales have mainly been to men, but not all: “Probably a dozen or two dozen guns to females, single mothers. We’ve sold to black people, white people. We’ve sold to asians who have businesses on West Florissant.” said King. “They’re just afraid of whats going on and they’re coming in to purchase either additional firearms or their first firearm.”

Your Say

"There's a 'Ferguson' near you"

That sort of open, race-baiting threat is a big part of the reason why there's always a 'Glock' near me.

Budsgunshop.com is selling a blemished AdamArms AR-15 piston rifle, in carbine or mid-length, for $599. In case of civil unrest an AR-15 or AK-47 is the rifle to have. These have not been cheaper than now.

Jesse Jackson will be very upset if you start offing the bros. But don't look for him to get out front of a march protesting the shooting of looters. No-no-no, Ole Jesse ain't getting his black ass shot for no dumb ass looter.

I found this on the internet and I don't know who to credit. Any of us who have seen the elephant will be nodding our heads. The rest of the folks reading this should pay attention. Get a gun, learn how to use it. Don't leave home without it. things are approaching the flash point.

PIDGE’S RULES

Lt.T.C. “Pidge” Robinson, Texas Ranger


15) Forget about knives, bats and fists. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns. Bring four times the ammunition you think you could ever need.

14) Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammunition is cheap - life is expensive. If you shoot inside, buckshot is your friend. A new wall is cheap - funerals are expensive

13) If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough or using cover correctly.

12) If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running. Yell "Fire!" Why "Fire"? Cops will come with the Fire Department, sirens often scare off the bad guys, or at least cause then to lose concentration and will.... and who is going to summon help if you yell "Intruder," "Glock" or "Winchester?"

11) Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.

10) Practice shooting in the dark, with someone shouting at you, when out of breath, etc.

9) Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work. "No battle plan ever survives 10 seconds past first contact with an enemy."

8) Watch their hands. Hands kill. Smiles, frowns and other facial expressions don't (In God we trust. Everyone else keep your hands where I can see them.)

7) Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. (See above)

6) The faster you finish the fight, the less shot you will get.

5) Stretch the rules. Always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.

4) Regardless of whether justified of not, you will feel sad about killing another human being. It is better to be sad than to be room temperature.

3) Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

2) In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.

1) The only thing you EVER say afterwards is, "He said he was going to kill me. I believed him. I'm sorry, Officer, but I'm very upset now. I can't say anything more. Please speak with my attorney."

Yeah Chas, many go to the range, bang out the X ring and believe they're ready. When it goes down, there's no X ring, just a hell of a lot of noise and that 'pucker factor'. and the shakes afterward with the bleed off.
