Lot's of possibilities on that "paid volunteer" track! Almost as good as being a bag boy at the grocery store. Probably smart enough to know the bread doesn't go under the watermelon in the bag.
Or, he could be an anti-gun writer! He's got the vast experience.
LOL, what a pile of steaming baloney.
Hmmm, I wonder what happens when you pull that pin from her belly button?
comparative literature
what kind of job does that qualify one for?
Well, one can correctly decline “Dost thou desire to supersize thy Happy Meal?”
what kind of job does that qualify one for?
Formulating AstroTurf memes out of whole cloth for the left's agenda.
yet I don’t hear idiots like this demanding private ownership of automobiles be banned.
At one point, they had been demanding the end of private ownership of Automobiles in favor of public transportation. The backlash shut them up.
“Blanchfield is a Ph.D. candidate and Woodruff Scholar in comparative literature at Emory University in Atlanta.”
For those in the know, this is a red flag that alerts us that we are dealing with a total and complete idiot.... and probably a liar.
I don’t believe his story about range time until I hear it confirmed from a second source. I’m not kidding. This is exactly the kind of fiction that is written by our Leftist friends from Emory.
Emory is a joke. Didn’t used to be. Is now.
To our everlasting shame, we also can claim membership in the club of mass murders. The magnitude of the numbers paints us as petty criminals compared to the real monsters, however it matters not to those who were slaughtered at Wounded Knee 122 years ago, under "Old Glory".
The Wounded Knee Massacre occurred on December 29, 1890, near Wounded Knee Creek on the Lakota Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota, USA. It was the last battle of the American Indian Wars. On the day before, a detachment of the U.S. 7th Cavalry Regiment commanded by Major Samuel M. Whitside intercepted Spotted Elk's band of Miniconjou Lakota and 38 Hunkpapa Lakota near Porcupine Butte and escorted them five miles westward to Wounded Knee Creek where they made camp.
The remainder of the 7th Cavalry Regiment arrived led by Colonel James Forsyth and surrounded the encampment supported by four Hotchkiss guns.
On the morning of December 29, the troops went into the camp to disarm the Lakota. One version of events claims that during the process of disarming the Lakota, a deaf tribesman named Black Coyote was reluctant to give up his rifle, claiming he had paid a lot for it. A scuffle over Black Coyote's rifle escalated and a shot was fired which resulted in the 7th Cavalry's opening fire indiscriminately from all sides, killing men, women, and children, as well as some of their own fellow troopers. Those few Lakota warriors who still had weapons began shooting back at the attacking troopers, who quickly suppressed the Lakota fire. The surviving Lakota fled, but U.S. cavalrymen pursued and killed many who were unarmed.
By the time it was over, at least 150 men, women, and children of the Lakota Sioux had been killed and 4 men, 47 women and children wounded, some of whom died later. Some estimates placed the number of dead at 300. Twenty-five troopers also died, and 39 were wounded. It is believed that many were the victims of friendly fire, as the shooting took place at close range in chaotic conditions. At least twenty troopers were awarded the coveted Medal of Honor.

It reads like a book. The entire article is a giant load of BS.

.....cognatively conflicts with this.....
I worked the action furiously, once, twice, and again, realizing dimly as I did that in doing so I was actually ejecting the shells, unspent,
I must confide in all of you one little secret: in my entire lifetime of experience with firearms, NOT ONCE has one cartridge turned into something that allowed me to cycle the action three times, ejecting shell*S* (plural).
I mean, yeah, okay, Jesus did it with fishes and loaves, but that was a long time ago, and Jesus was the Son of God.
So there's that.
I am not afraid of the limo liberals. Not now...not ever.
They can kiss my Christian fanny. They can take all my stuff. They can kill my body. I will be who I am no matter what they think they are doing as the all powerful dark stinkers of the universe. : )
“...copied the new [Bolshevik poster] & made a hard copy”
You & me both, Cid Campeador. Heh, heh, your version looks like the Bolshie is grinning. “Trust me, comrades, turn these in and all will be well!”
Real quote: Gen. Eisenhower was trying to befriend Marshal Zhukov after V-E Day with predictions of American style freedoms in Europe including the right to bear arms. But then, Zhukov drew him up short: “We say to the masses, `No, comrade, you can’t have those things. You must give them to the state!’”
Now, the Russians of all people are warning us Americans not to give up our gun rights.
Blanchfield is a Ph.D. candidate and Woodruff Scholar in comparative literature at Emory University in Atlanta.
Probably didn’t mention that his partner was probably a guy. Blanchfield is not a PHD, but only a candidate and not a candidate in any meaningful field. I would suggest that next time that he cower under the covers and either he or his “partner” hold his weenie until the burglar blows him and his “partner” away.
So he tried to load and alreadyt loaded gun, worked the chamber several times UNloading it, and he wants us to believe he spent HOURS training????
The boogeyman ran away at the sound of the gun being racked- I would say MISSION ACCOMPLISHED at that point...
But I hope that criminal doesnt read this and realize that now he doesn’t have a gun, and come back
You're welcome. Here's a second lifeline!
So his comment about guns he has owned "over the years" is highly unlikely to include the time he was in Cambridge, since getting a Mass. class A or class B firearms ID as a college student in Cambridge is nearly impossible. Obviously until he was 21 he couldn't have legally owned a pistol, and even long arms and ammunition require at least a firearms ID card in Mass.
I doubt he bought and presumably sold or "lost" all of the weapons he described in the last seven years, particularly given his obvious lack of basic firearm handling knowledge. I've never seen anybody, even a novice, rack a shotgun while they were loading it. Normally one's fingers object to that. Nor do even novices rack out the ammo they have just loaded.
He also worked for CyberEdit, which provides "editing" services for resume and essay writing - in other words you hire them to "edit", or maybe ghostwrite your essay to get into medical school or college. Some people consider that line of business somewhat dubious from an ethical point of view. People who write or "edit" essays and resumes for other people are usually pretty good at writing fiction.
Suggestions? Sure, send him a polite email and ask him your questions. While you are at it you may want to ask him about his work for George Soros, and if he has any comments about the sudden rash of shootings by people who are seeing psychiatrists, since he is "Completing four year, 460-hour course of training in psychoanalytic theory and clinical practice" according to his resume.
Police reports.
He claims this occurred in 2008. Did he ever call 911 during any of the multiple break-ins?
Did Atlanta PD take any reports?
Can any of the Atlanta crime records be accessed as public info?
Maybe a FOIA request.
