Expand The Pack
By Mitch Berg
The “Armed Citizen Project” – which we talked about a month or two back – is expanding from Dallas to Houston:
The Armed Citizen Project is raising money to give free guns to residents living in high-crime areas and to single women — so they can defend themselves against criminals.
Based in Houston– the group now wants to expand to Dallas.
“It sounds good but you have to be careful,” said [crappy-Dallas-neighborhood-resident Calvin] Carter.
“It’s good to be able to have weapons in case something happens to you or your family when you’re not there, that weapon could save them.”
It’s not just a gun giveaway:
In order to get a free gun you have to pass a background check and complete a safety training course.
You also have to have lived at your current address for at least a year.
Of course, not everyone gets it:
“That appalls me completely,” said [obvious babbling idiot] Lynne Weber [seriously, watch the video; she couldn’t fit the stereotype of the babbling middle-class ignorant white anti-gun woman if she were carrying an MPR coffee mug and wearing an alpaca scarf and driving a Volvo – or if she were Heather Martens, I suppose]. “I’m against having guns in our society. I want gun control. I think doing that would not empower women but endanger them and everyone around them.”
Watch for the media to scour the web for any errors on the parts of beneficiaries of the program – and to studiously ignore or bury any positive results.

On the morning show of the OTHER talk station in town, they interviewed a guy who is starting up the ACP in Tucson as well, with full support and authorization from the original guy in Plano (I think it was Plano…which is a suburb of Dallas). He said he got police approval, not from the chief because the chief is beholden to the city council, but from two “organizations that support the actual police officers”. He didn’t go into detail on what organizations those were, but hopefully they were the policy union(s).

Volvo?! Holy crap, Mitch! I thought that the official liberal staff car was a Subaru Outback? I guess that the drivers of those will really wet themselves when they hear that Subaru if recalling some 200,000 of them to fix problems with the brakes.
