You know, if they like this so much, they could get it 24/7 in Iraq. They’d even be paid to go there!
People kill people.
Holy shit, I didn’t realize someone was filming my Brother-In-Law’s Fourth of July Party in Pennsylvania!
Seriously, I’m ok with toddlers using machine guns, I really am.
Looks like a Mythbusters Fan Club meet-up!
Obama is not coming for anyone’s guns, but he should really make an exception for these folks.
Johnny Zhivago: You and I might have the same brother-in-law because mine has enough guns that if PA is ever invaded, the invaders will want to avoid his neck of the woods.
“Keep Shooting!”
“But the car’s already done and blowed up.”
“I SAID KEEP SHOOTING!”
That’s a whole lot of sexual frustration.
This is sick. Guns are a weapon, not a toy. They should not be used for fun, but only when absolutely necessary. This is almost like taking a precision crafted samurai sword and using it to trim your hedges. They should try a dirty bomb. Hopefully it will irradiate their McCocks and we’ll only have to wait about 20 years before they all blow themselves up and we never hear a peep from them again.
Airborne Toxic Event: In this case, that might be valid. I doubt these people would have a problem killing someone with their bare hands. They look hungry.
For christ sakes, Americans in Oklahoma are stoo-pid!
You never hold the trigger down when you fire a machine gun. You do it in 3-4 shot bursts. That way, you can correct the fire and it helps keep the barrel from melting and causing all sorts of trouble.
Silly okies!
Also, the cars should be allowed to shoot back. The red-staters are the ones always complaining about the length of the welfare rolls, right?
Wow, the Bitteratti are fuckin’ batshit! Why can’t a tornado hit these yokles?
I bet those are Jeremy Shockey’s relatives.
Now we know how Sarah Connor learns to shoot. Absolutely necessary so she can fight the cyborgs in a few decades.
I take it that ammunition is still cheaper than gas, then?
norbizness: I don’t get it. Tom Coburn says there are a whole bunch of teenage lesbians in Oklahoma. One would think…
I got two words for you: “awe” and “some”
There’s still plenty of time to make your plans for this year’s festivities: http://www.oklahomafullauto.com/
At least it’s not in Sally Kern’s district…
As I watched I was entertained, then bored, then entertained again, then incredulous, and finally delerious.
It’s exactly as if Sideshow Bob were squeezing off rounds instead of stepping on rakes.
Where did you get Ann Coulter’s home movies?
I’d pay money to see them do that to NRA Headquarters.
Liberal friendly Oklahoma? Finally!
Doglessliberal: Cars and targets don’t shoot back. And they won’t usually put family in the same unit, so no sex with your sister.
what percentage of those bullets hit anything resembling a target? Maybe 5%? SMRT.
That looks like a lot of fun. I want to shoot cars too, but the people in my neighborhood would probably get all uptight about it. Anti-constitution pinko libs!
It always used to make me feel uncomortable when some old-school raver couple would bring their toddler to a rave–now, not so much.
My in-laws call this “Saturday”.
These people are morons. And that little girl has no sense of aim - the Army (heck some good Boy Scouts) would whoop these yokels in a heartbeat.
What I’m sure would really get them all hot and bothered would be to let them fire some shit off at Ft. Sill, the Field Artillery base.
iwillsavethispatient: Cheap .308 is running $0.50 a round. So here these fine folks are out helping the economy by expending durable goods and all you folks can do is sit there and criticize their efforts to help America (while teachin’ the youngins to protect us from the coming Takfiri barbarian assault I might add)! Sheesh.
One can only think that hordes of toddlers with machine guns and bombed out cars can only make Oklahoma more ‘interesting’. Doesn’t do much for tourism, but you don’t miss what you don’t have.
I only watched to the end hoping for shrapnel casualties.
Trailer for “Red Dawn?”
Gopherit v2.0: dammit. Stupid rules.
Q2: I was actually wondering about this. If these people are among those bitching about gas prices, they need to shut up or figure out how to create fuel out of casings.
Hope their aquifer in right there under the firing range.
Drink lead, Oakies!
Cicada: I also totally want to shoot at a car until it blows up! You need practice for the coming Armageddon/Rapture/Whatever that the Bobby Jindals of the world are trying to force upon us, (because it’s not real and will never happen if they don’t make it happen…)
Also, in some countries, you can buy black-market missiles and shoot them at cattle, so this is pretty tame by comparison.
Nice to see that they’re gathering all the future Timothy McVies in one spot.
Tits_LaRue: Don’t shoot meat things unless ya’ll gonna et it whenyer done.
I can haz ful otto?
GET EEERRR DUUUUUUUN!!!
StrangelyBrown: For a second, I thought that website was http://www.oklahomafellatio.com. Come to think of it, that’s pretty much what it is.
Q2: lol… I’m pretty sure that the only thing you can make out of a cow blown up by a missile is soup. Or, steak tartare.
That’ll learn them uppity cars.
Looks like the red target thing survived the strafing unscathed until the bunker buster landed on it.
Was that Golden Gate Park?
Ladies and Gentlemen, the Oklahoma Symphony Orchestra.
I don’t know what you’re all talking about. This is obviously a well-regulated militia. God Bless America.

Sry
i want my 5 minutes back. i didn’t grow up in Oklahoma to not be able to recognize my own hometown goons when i see them. clearly this was shot in Texas.
Nikolai Vsevolodovich Stavrogin: Agreed. It was kind of like watching incredibly amateurish porn.
Life in the compound is ALWAYS this much fun.
Tra:
AhojChris:
I like to keep it in the refrigerator.
Keeps the powder dry, and the action quicker.
Let me be your American Gladitor.
(Mike speaking)
Find enclosed an adhesive NRA sticker.
A letter to you from where I’ve been holed up
in this bucolic, agrarian compound.
One step ahead
just ahead
of the government bloodhound.
The gas is off, it’s a national showdown.
Sure wish that I could visit you,
my sweet betrothed.
In a couple of days
we’ll all be free,
or we’ll be dead.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Fencing off this little piece of heaven.
Cross the line and you’re electricuted.
Polishing up my AK47.
It’s a constitutional right, can’t be refuted.
Now they’ve got us on TV,
and making us look stupid.
Shot of me flippin’ my lid,
at that mutt reporter,
a classic case of race dilution
Houston,
What is the problem?
I’m fighting for you, and a blue-eyed Jesus.
America first,
the rest get the pieces.
Na Na Na Na.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Fighting for your honor,
like would any Afrikaaner.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Our love is so strong (?our numbers are strong?), and it won’t be long
till I can tell you, Tricia, that we won.
You’ll be ecstatic, just like that night
you told me up in the attic.
That was your wish again,
to be back in ?a? purified Michigan
down on…! down on…!
..the farm.
Well, that’s my wish again,
to be back in Michigan.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
(Well, that’s my wish again, to be back in Michigan)
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
I hope you like the double barrel,
I think it goes with your apparel.
Happy Birthday, Tricia,
(Well, that’s my wish again, to be back in Michigan)
I’m in the Michigan Militia.
I like to keep it in the refrigerator.
Eight redneck diamonds.
Another quiet afternoon in Basra…
Johnny Zhivago: Lil’ Jessica-Tiffany did not score even one
certified hit and was remanded to the dungeon under the double-wide, where
she was chained to the goat and left to eat lead paint and cigar butts for the rest
of Holy Hell week. Served her ass right.
shortsshortsshorts:
yo, shorts. you’re scarin’ the kids (ME!). do you know
Ted Nugent, all personal n’ shit?
bitchincamaro: I wish I was the one who wrote it, but it was actually this bitchin’ band from the late 90’s called “Moxy Fruvous.”
That looks like Darla Jane and Sammie’s wedding reception…
The youngster reminds me of some Israeli women I served with at Ft. Hood — very faithful husbands, those women had. Nice to see that Dad had outfitted her with headphones — saving her ears for marriage?
This makes me think that I might actually like life as a Paultard.
That is the worst video for a drum and bass song I’ve ever seen.
You missed a spot, sweetheart.
I hate Oklahoma. Except for this. This is actually cool.
Mackensie is right about the short bursts being the right way. It pains me to see such poor technique. Back when I was an 11B40H we taught the troops to hold the trigger down on a ‘60 just long enough to say “Fire a Burst of Six”; pause, repeat. Cyclic rate of fire 550 rounds per minute but sustained 125. Reminds me of an anecdote in Guadalcanal Diary where a marine heard a banzai attack in progress and a VERY long burst from a machine gun. His reaction: a falsetto “Dear Mom, please send me a new barrel for Christmas”.
Actually it gives a scarily seductive sense of power to sit behind one of those weapons. Cost me my hearing, but at least now I get free medical care at the VA. That’s one way to get your health insurance problems taken care of.
God, guns and guts made America free. And these brave patriots are just demonstrating that they can form an effective militia to ward off any invading terrorists or commie infiltrators without having to wait for W’s, Commander-in-Chief, direction.
But boy, did they go through a few K-bucks of ammo with that brave demonstration!?
ZombieRichardFeynman: 6 to 9 round bursts on the M-60 MG. I used to fire single shots, then pairs, triples, on up to nine round bursts just to get the trigger control perfect. These people are rank amateurs! The fucking Silesian Landwehr machine gunners did better at the Somme.
Johnny Zhivago: Lil’ Tiffany-Jessica is getting one of these for her birthday, no doubt:

Ken Layne,
I’m not even sure if I’ve flown over Oklahoma and I know I’ve never seen the damned musical.
Sincerely and respectfully,
Mr-Clark
Oklahomer- they wont teach kids evolution, but they will teach ‘em how to blow up a beater with a machine gun.
They must REALLY hate American cars.
shortsshortsshorts: Another Früvous fan! God bless you, shortpants.
Usedta be you had to blow up your old cars with muskets and bayonettes. Now we have squad automatic weapons and two-handed MAC-10s — that’s why Americans are getting fatter.
I learned how to shoot (at targets) with a handgun by my dad when I was 10 or so, however these idiots make me fucking cringe.
Big guns blow up stuff! Wow! Just like Robosaurus eats cars!
For fuck’s sake, Big Oil needs you in Iraq.
Oh– and bring the lil’ tardette with you. Her first words were probably ‘big gun’, if not, they were ‘government cheese’.
Jewdishoowary Square: Our numbers are fading quickly.
Right now, somewhere, a Freeper has just finished masturbating and is smoking a non-menthol cig and wiping up with the envelope his tax rebate/economic stimulus check/bribe came in.
Yes, I ended a sentence with a preposition. Also, those people are terrible shots.
It blowed up. It blowed up real good.
That reminded me of one of the Greatest Movies of All Time, by one of the Greatest Director/Screenwriters of All Time:
WOLVERINES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AVENGE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ZombieRichardFeynman: You’re right about the barrels melting, etc. — on a conventional machine gun.
But that “buzz” around 1:50 was a minigun. With the six or eight barrels, you can crack that puppy all day long — or at least until the ammo tray runs dry.
Oklahoma is Texas’s Canada.
Awesome video. But am I the only one who wonders which Dad bought this lucky 12 year old girl a .50 caliber Browning M2 machine gun?
When I was her age all I got was a lousy .22 caliber single shot rifle.
That poor kids is going to grow up to weight about 400 lbs.
lumpenprole:
“weigh” to go dum dum
also, “kid’s,” dummy
shortsshortsshorts: “but it was actually this bitchin’ band from the late 90’s called “Moxy Fruvous.”
Yeah, right.
And once I was the King of Spain.
[BTW: Jian from that band is now all over CBC radio and TV. He's one of a handful of "hip" "young" "people" that CBC hopes will make it relevant to those yung'uns with the attention span of a meth-addicted hummingbird. CBC is wrong.]
If only Sally Kern could have been driving that car, the Okies would be looking a lot more sane right now.
sanantonerose: Oh hell no–because I’m in Texas and I LOVE Canadians. Can’t get me enough Canadians round here. I’d happily move there, were it not so cold. Okies, on the other hand, uh, well. Let’s just say Oklahoma is Texas’s Oklahoma.
I found the little girl firing the tripod-mounted machine-gun to be incredibly depressing.
Meaux: having been bred in Montana and raised in Texas, I would have to concur. Canadians with their socialized medicine and Mackenzie Brothers are much preferred to tornadoes and Tulsa.
That can’t be Oklahoma. There’s green stuff.
I love guns, esp machine guns. Looks totally fun, minus the side conversations about the blacks, jews, and gays.
Can we start a Wonkette Shooting Club? Seriously - we’ve got to prep for the revolution.
policonoclast: “Wonkette Shooting Club”?!?
Goddamnit, man! Copyright/trademark that IMMEDIATELY!!!!
