I Bought A Gun

Refer to this post if you haven't read it yet.

A few things, regarding that post. I seem to be pretty full of myself. Yep. I no longer see anything wrong with keeping a loaded gun in your house. If you have kids, it needs to be IMPOSSIBLE for them to hurt themselves or anyone else with it. Gunsafe, Lock, hide it, whatever. Don't think your kids don't go through your stuff when you're not there. They do.

My first gun, just over 3 years past that post, is a Walther P22. Linkage.

I chose the P22 for a variety of reasons. First, I'm not real sure what large caliber gun I want. It's a .22 lr, which means it shoots tiny bullets. So they are cheap, and you can buy a lot of them. Like 500 for 14 bucks or so. A .22 is the size of gun I always shot with my father at the range, so I'm pretty familiar with it. So while I shoot it, and talk to others, I can decide if I want a 9mm or a .45 or what.

Not to mention it looks pretty cool.

Conceal and Carry
I don't have my CCW yet, but I'm looking into it. The Wiki page, if you read it, says that the P22 is not usually chosen for CCW. (Conceal Carry Weapon) I guess it's due to the small caliber of the bullet. But that's fine for me. I don't want to kill anyone anyway. If I have to shoot someone, I think they will be dissuaded from bothering me anyway. A hit from a .22 is better than a miss from a .45 any day. I guess I won't be able to kill a bear with it, but I don't [really] plan to. It's a training gun, and a self defense weapon. If the zombies come, I have access to a lot of other firearms right now, so I'm not that skeered.

Good Shooting (cheers,)

How Many?

I know, I know. I should have already posted about last Friday night. I should have gone into detail about my first Magic The Gathering tournament, and the second one that happened right after. (Lost both, 25 of 27 and 10 of 13) I also should have at least mentioned that it snowed like 6 inches by the time it was all over 6:30-10pm and 11:30-3am. Then I would have gone into the drunk who I might have driven home after he rolled his truck twice, and managed to limp it to within 2 blocks of where I dropped him off. He then would have wandered off in the same direction we came. I hope he didn't die, but I tried to save his ass from a DUI. "Where for the grace of God..."

But I didn't do any of that. Instead I bring you:

(I think I could do better...)

Man, and you scurvy dogs think your old Captain has some problems. It'll never last, but here's

The other side of the story.

The media is right about one thing though. People don't want the whole story. They want it to be obvious who's the good guy and who's the bad guy. I'm not taking sides here, but the Captain would have handled it in a whole 'nother fashion.
