Firefight in Iraq

The end of this audio gives me the chills....

From the YouTube page:

"My brother is an MP over in Afghanistan. He was out in the field today on April 21st. He decided to give us a call, just to let us know how he was doing. Nobody was home so he got the answering machine, and hung up. Just then, they started getting shot at. Somehow, his phone re-dialed, and we got this on our answering machine. He is okay."

Yeah...still around

Unlike my buddy Yuri, I didn't end up in the hospital. I just have a really bad case of work.

How far we've fallen....

Now days the toy company would be boycotted and the marketing staff would have to take sensitivity training.

Just found a cool post over at boxotruth on the The Johnson Rifle - the rifle that was beat out by the M-1. He has some beautiful pictures...a lot nicer than the one above from Wikipedia...

The only option left for the Brits...

Why the pilot's gun fired...

AuburnPub.com - Pilot Was Trying to Stow Gun That Fired: "A US Airways pilot whose gun fired inside a cockpit said he was trying to stow the weapon as the crew got ready to land, according to a police report obtained Wednesday."



Yep, he was handling the firearm while in the air. Stupid mistake. He should have waited until the plane was on the ground and stationary before he handled the weapon. Now, the next question is whether or not he was following airline policy when he was stowing the gun just before landing.

Quick question

So what's "a safe direction" on an airplane?

On the other hand maybe we should ask another question - like why was the guy handling his firearm on the airplane while in flight?

Caught by an armed Preacher

Fire, brimstone, and a pistol.

Released prisoner arrested for carjacking in jail parking lot - WPTV NewsChannel 5

"A clergyman for Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office saw the incident and ran to help.

The Reverend put his firearm to his side and told Singleton to get on the ground. A deputy came to assist and handcuffed Singleton."



You've got to read the story. The guy is definitely in the run for most stupid criminal of the year....
