Suspended
1 Comment Published by Ninth Stage February 19th, 2007 in Gun Control, Guns, Second Amendment, What the ... ?.Jim Zumbo’s blog at Outdoor Life has been suspended - for good if they have any sense. Remington has dumped his fat ass so it’s disgusting to see their ads still appearing above Zumbo’s mug but that’s likely to to be fixed soon.
In the interest of posterity, and thanks to Google, I’m reproducing the [...]
I hear that in some circles this is called “sweetening the pot.”
J’umbo’s Nopology
2 Comments Published by Ninth Stage February 18th, 2007 in Gun Control, What the ... ?.Reading Jim Zumbo’s nopology gave me a case of the ass. He calls me a terrorist and stakes out an anti-Second Amendment position in the first post. In the “apology” he’s puffed up and complaining about what he calls ” the unpatriotic comments leveled at me. I fly the flag 365 days [...]

Speeder Fights Back
1 Comment Published by Ninth Stage February 16th, 2007 in Only Ones Professional Enough.A speeder caught by radar and on film multiple times is fighting back. He’s filed a “stalking” complaint against his tormentors. The habitual speeder is Kenessaw GA police officer Richard Perrone but the couple documenting his infractions are not.

Democidal Maniacs
4 Comments Published by Ninth Stage February 15th, 2007 in Civil Liberties, Gun Control.Dem Dems are at it again. Les Jones alerts us to “H.R. 1022: To reauthorize the assault weapons ban, and for other purposes.” Yup, an attempt to renew the so called “assault weapons” ban is back (with other, certain to be lovely, “purposes”).
Recriminations abound for those who voted “D”. Misplaced I think as the [...]

Are the rock stars you know. Envy. Envy.
I’ve mentioned that Comcast sucks mightily but perhaps you didn’t believe me. Read about these folks’ troubles and believe. They exceded the bandwidth of Comcast’s “unlimited” internet service. Of course the maximum bandwidth you are allowed with the unlimited service is a secret so there is now way to know if you’re [...]
Sac Scandal
10 Comments Published by Ninth Stage February 8th, 2007 in Only Ones Professional Enough.I was wrong, taser girl makes eight.
Two other Gallatin PD officers resigned in January. Officer Dustin Rush resigned on the 19th after watching porn and “Girls Gone Wild’ at work. Police Sgt. Jeff Petty resigned on the 9th after two officers he supervised showed their nads to each other. What a department.
Story here.
Heads up Tennesseans.
My local failed city council person, failed state senator and now mayor of Gallatin, Jo Ann Graves, is pushing for a new law allowing municipalities to ban hunting. The Tennessean styles it as local control of “Urban Hunting” but what is really at stake is property rights.
Sumner County is mostly rural. [...]
And Taser Girl Makes Six
0 Comments Published by Ninth Stage February 3rd, 2007 in Only Ones Professional Enough, The Law.The Gallatin Police Department has lately been on a roll, on a roll as in heads rolling.  With this rate of attrition the Red Light Cameras Tisdale had installed around town start to make some kind of sense.
