Damn, I recognize that gun. They are all over the place here....second only
to Kalashnikovs. I bet someone in Kin could pick one up for under $10.

When I was a teen age deer hunter the cheap under powered gun of
choice was the Korean War vintage .30 caliber M1.

As inadequate of a deer rifle as was ever allowed. Its *was* cheap
though, which is why people used them.

They were saying on WCCO last night that the guy had a DNR violation in
MN for having 100 crappies over the limit.


I heard this morning on MSNBC that he was involved in a domestic violence
incident a while ago. Seems he threatened his wife with the same gun....she
refused to press charges. In many states that altercation would have resulted
in confiscation of the gun, not that it would likely have made much difference
to this guy.

We in central and western MA have experienced a flood of Russian immigrants the
past ten years or so, and many of them have no regard for fish and game laws,
to the point where there is evidence that one group was netting trout to sell
in a Russian market. And these are some rough dudes, nobody you'd want to mess
with.

Boy, it takes a special kind of person to argue that after an incident
that
will be pointed at for years to come as an excuse to screen more
carefully
for every type of firearm ownership.



I have read and reread that sentence about 10 times, and although I think
I know what you meant to say, I simply cannot fathom what it is you
actually DID say...

hilarious; i thought i was the only one who had the same, queasy
feeling.
