Chuckle in Your Day! (AKA the joke thread)

It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity 😉😂😂😂
I am currently sitting in my shed in my framed up but unfinished office.
It is 31.3 deg Celsius (88.3 F) and luckily only 59% Humidity.
Ceiling fan going flat out right above me.
Bloody hot when I step out from under the fan.
Luckily we are kept cooler by the breeze off the water.

In Australia we have fairly tight gun laws and just recently even stopped our cows from carrying... so it is pretty safe on the green stuff now.

Cows With Guns - The Original Animation - YouTube​

I’m a HUGE gun guy, even more so than a car guy, and can’t believe I never seen this video before. HILARIOUS! “Chicken in choppers” to save the day!! 🙃🤣

Bottom gun in pic below is from one of the walls in my gun room, yea when you have a room in your home dedicated only for guns and ammo you may have a problem. 🤷‍♂️ I definitely couldn’t live in Australia, really anywhere else other than the gun Capital of the world. Anyway, the video showed a Mac-10 (less the mini scope and a different kind of suppressor) but said it was an Uzi. That’s when I knew the person making the video did a great job on the animation/etc, but was not a gun person. Thanks for the video, I’ve already started sending to family/friends…..👍🙏

Btw, I don’t think the meme was talking about people that made Australia so dangerous, ya’ll have so many dang deadly critters. Heck I literally just googled “country with the most dangerous animals” and got this:

“Australia is considered to have some of the deadliest animals in the world, including:”.

I have been to some very dangerous places across the world when I was in the military, but never had the pleasure of going down under. Maybe one day I’ll make it over there, but I will feel naked without my “side kicks”!!!

In Australia there are around 4 million registered guns owned by only 1 million adults.
They think there are around 260,000 unregistered guns surprisingly only about 5,000 of those are in the hand of actual "criminals" for crime.
The rest are owned by gun lovers who don't want to register them or they are no longer legal firearms.
Most of them are rubbish anyway.

Here is the "Chuckle in your day" component--illegal guns seized in recent major police raids that have hit the national headlines.

I've only been to 20 countries , Russia included, but the only place I've ever felt unsafe (as did my wife) was the USA.
Snakes , spiders, sharks etc don't bother me at all. Largely they exhibit predictable behaviour, and don't do drugs or booze.
In the bush and at home I don't carry a knife or a gun.

Most tourist visit the worst part of the USA (New York) when they come and say this. I am a proud American citizen and I don’t even visit there. If anyone visited Ohio, Montana, Wyoming, etc etc (heck even my little ole state of Louisiana) I find it very difficult to believe they would have felt unsafe. Sorry for you & your wife’s bad experience, but if you ever decide to come again and can make it down to Louisiana, send me a PM and we can hook up and I’ll show you the “Cajun experience”. You will never want to leave my friend…..😉😎

My attitude to guns is somewhat coloured by professional experience working in EDs and as a pathologist.
I doubt many gun obsessed people have spent 2 days working in a morgue sorting out the consequences of 35 innocent people slaughtered by a high powered rifle, including 2 children . And a person I knew.
Boston felt nice and safe. The only place I tasted decent coffee.
Likely we'll be visiting Canada and the Rockies sometime.

My attitude on guns is colored by 26yrs of law enforcement and anti-terrorism experience in seeing and being part of active shooter response and its aftermath on the community.

There is a reason shirtbirds choose places where the people are purposely disarmed as their targets. Criminals don’t care about what is legal, that’s why they are criminals. Bans don’t make sense because only the law abiding citizens will obey.

Arming everyone isn’t the answer but taking away someone’s ability to protect themselves is incredibly irresponsible. IMHO, the legal system needs to enforce what has already been passed into law. The majority of cities that have high crime also have very liberal legal systems. The cops can make an arrest, but what good does it do when the suspect has been released back into the city before the officer is even done with their paperwork.

At the end of the day, a firearm is an inanimate object. It takes someone with bad intentions for it to be used in a criminal manner, in the same way it takes someone with good intentions to save someone’s life (or their own) from an assailant.

The trick is to allow the good guys to keep theirs and to disarm the bad guys. Ironically current laws do exactly the opposite.
