Organized Crime

Posted in Humor, Politics, Society on September 25th, 2011

In these difficult times it’s not especially surprising that some youth are looking towards a life of crime instead of a job on the right side of the law. It’s up to their parents to guide them in the proper direction.

Organized Crime
Organized Crime? Which Sort, Son?

Admittedly, given the current circumstances, this can be a difficult prospect, but the shame of having a child become part of the government should outweigh the problems a parent might face convincing them to take a more honorable and ethical career path such as being a crack dealer, enforcer, or bagman :lol:

Times Change

Posted in Humor, Society on September 7th, 2011

Times change and men or, at least, their perceptions and outlooks change with the shifting of the circumstances. This seems to be especially true of men who become fathers…

Funny But True
It’s All A Matter Of Perspective

Don’t get me wrong, mothers of girls have their worries too. It’s just that they’re a bit less comically hypocritical. ;-)

K Is For Kinder?

Posted in Humor, Society on August 5th, 2011

There’s little or no doubt that Heckler & Koch’s MP-5 series of submachine guns are some of the finest weapons on the planet, especially for urban work and for vehicle crews.

I had, however, always believed that the “K” in the compact variant, the MP5K, was for kurz (short) as opposed to kinder (children). ;-)

K is for Kinder? I thought it was for For Kurtz. Oh well, she's training to achieve honorable peace in her time
She Training To Ensure Peace In Her Time

Then again, given the size, weight, balance, and control of the MP5K, I really can’t think of any better weapon in this class for children’s training and use. H & K might want to think about changing their marketing. :lol:

NOTE: The specific model of firearm the girl is using is the MP5K-PDW, distinguishable by its folder shoulder stock.
