The Moscow Kalashnikov statue

by Jack Brummet

The Moscow statue of Mikhail Kalashnikov was unveiled a few months ago. Wikipedia:

Even though Kalashnikov felt sorrow at the weapons' uncontrolled distribution, he took pride in his inventions and in their reputation for reliability, emphasizing that his rifle is "a weapon of defense" and "not a weapon for offense".

It's exciting to see another outbreak of sanity in The Capitol in this congressional sit-in. Hats off to John Lewis, Katherine Clark (yeah, Lewis and Clark), and the caucus. Dems sitting in at 4 AM. What's next? Occupy The Capitol, a new March on Washington? One small step back to sanity?  The camel's back is hanging on by a couple of fractured vertebrae.

Queen Elizabeth fires an L85 battle rifle in Surrey, England.  The source and photographer are unknown. . .which is a little odd, considering the detail in the caption that accompanied the photo on Retronaut.com.
