Sometimes the jokes write themselves...

Via NC Gun Blog comes news that New York, the state that has deemed deadly "assault weapons" such a threat to public order that they can only be entrusted to people who are supposed to be upholding public order, is hosting the 2013 Tactical Expo.

The best part? The three-day event will even have a "Comedy Night"!

Those jokes ought to be hilarious:
"Knock, knock."

"Who's there?"

"Breacher up! *K-BLAAMMM!* Freeze, police! Get on the ground! Don't move! Lemme see your hands! I said don't you $*#!ing MOVE! *BANGBANGBANG!*"

"Oh, God, they shot Lassie!"

It's probably a black zip tie affair.

Wow - attending that Expo is civilian sales suicide for a manufacturer.

Well, it is on Oneida Indian Nation land, so is that technically New York?

JPD said...

Thanks Tam. After reading the info. I emailed and called three of the manufacturers attending the show.

You forgot "STOP RESISTING!".

Donut jokes become tedious.

NY Boycott! They took-down Eastern Sports and Outdoor Show, maybe this expo can be monkey-wrenched too.

Thanks for the link, Tam.

Civilian Sales Suicide. Yep. We need to make sure that the companies know it, too.

A "No Knock"-Knock joke. Sort of the ultimate "Interrupting cow"...

"Oh, God, they shot Lassie!"

The Joke is on us:

Well Done Officer! Here's your medal, with commendation for doing both in front of kids and parents and letting the vicious beast suffer and bleed out in front of them for an hour!"

Why do people who take an Oath to the Constitution. Openly violate and disregard it. Is that Not called treason?

---
Article III Section 3 delineates treason as follows:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.


That's why. Criminal prosecution on the appropriate charge is the correct response. Nothing encourager les autres like the occasional defrocked cop behind a lock. The trick is getting them there.

Ah, but they were just following orders, and only wanted to go home safely to their own families and pets, which justifies everything.

Oh where oh where have we heard that before, Mr. Godwin?

I realize that this is gallows humor, but it is now serious. New York, Colorado, and now an attempt in Oregon. No more humor. Obama is in because the number of voters that voted for Bush did not vote last time. "Reasonable" pretenses have been dropped in favor of Government taking, warrentless searches, and an ignorant ass of a Vice-President defining "need" for me, and blatant disregard of the results of previously enacted, failed legislation, failure to enforce existing laws...and so on, and so on... I am not a criminal, and I refuse to be treated like one, or to be blamed for the actions of criminals and lunatics.
No more jokes. There is no more humor in this for me.

If they try that knock knock joke on Joe Biden things will get real serious real fast. Right after the first guy in the stack gets back up, looks down at the buckshot embedded in his Kevlar, and stares at the smoking hole in the front door.

@Steve- Didn't Joe Plugs said just go OUTSIDE and fire of a couple of loads of birdshot IN THE AIR?



Civilian Sales Suicide? I ain't looked yet, but I wonder if HS Precicion has a booth....

..... and is Lon Horiuchui teaching the "Tactical Precicion Long Rifle Operations" block of instruction of the "Hostage Rescue Operations" Class?

A boycott? I'm thinking the various .govs are the Only Ones (snerk!) left with enough scratch to fund the "Tactical" industry .... the rest of us can't just apply for grant whenever we want new toys.

The trouble with those jokes is the non LEO don't think they're jokes and the LEO don't think they're funny.
