The Happiest Place on Earth

Dual M2s on a PT Boat
I am at a Conference in Orlando this week.

For the first time in 10 years my wonderful wife agreed to come along and enjoy a mini vacation while I had the room already.

We came down a day early and went to Disney World. On Saturday we went to the Magic Kingdom and on Sunday we went to Hollywood Studios.

The last time I was here was about 10 years ago. It was in the middle of the Clinton AWB and it was creepy how completely guns had been removed from Disney World. None in the exhibits, shows, rides, anywhere.

Guns are back.

There are toy guns in all the gift shops. Every other kid has a Jack Sparrow Pirate Flintlock gun in his belt or a Star Wars Blaster. The action shows are filled with shooting bad guys, shooting from speeding cars, the jungle guide is once again shooting the killer crocs and threatening to feed the children to them. Airplane strafe and heros open up with Dual M2's!

Well Shot Volunteer
It was however kinda hard to look close and realize that real Ma Deuce's had been converted to prop guns.

Indiana Jones even gets to shoot the sword guy again in cold blood.

The woman in the red on the left was a volunteer from the audiance and they pretended to shoot her like 15 times as she acted a dramatic death! It was so fun.

--The winds have changed. Full speed ahead!
