Firearm Industry Makes Nice with Gun Foes

In the interest of “can’t we all just get along-ism,” firearm manufacturer Smurf & Westing has released a new revolver model.

Called the “Eliminator,” and chambered in .44 Magnum, it is designed especially for liberals and lefties of the Brady variety. The revolver is designed to accomplish a “one shot, one hit” result every time it is aimed and fired by a liberal.

We firearm enthusiasts should show our support for our gun-hating foes by encouraging them to acquire the revolver and insist that they try it out at a local range. I think that we can guarantee that they will no longer voice their displeasure with guns (or anything else for that matter).

According to a Marine Pilot:


In addition to communicating with the local Air Traffic Control facility, all aircraft in the Persian Gulf AOR are required to give the Iranian Air Defense Radar (military) a ten minute 'heads up' if they will be transiting Iranian airspace.


This is a common procedure for commercial aircraft and involves giving them your call sign, transponder code, type aircraft, and points of origin and destination.

 
I just flew with a guy who overheard this conversation on the VHF Guard (emergency) frequency 121.5 MHz while flying from Europe to Dubai. It's too good not to pass along. The conversation went something like this...


Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'Unknown aircraft at (location unknown), you are in Iranian airspace. Identify yourself.'

Aircraft: 'This is a United States aircraft. I am in Iraqi airspace.'

Iranian Air Defense Radar: 'You are in Iranian airspace. If you do not depart our airspace we will launch interceptor aircraft!'

Aircraft: 'This is a United States Marine Corps FA-18 fighter. Send 'em up, I'll wait!'

Iranian Air Defense Radar: (no response ... total silence)

Semper Fi Thanx to my friend Rock (a marine) for sending this to me!
