The Fly Goes Shooting

I'm thinking very strongly about going shooting this weekend, but this outing will be different. Why? Because I'll be shooting something I don't shoot very often: textbooks. Which textbooks are these?

  • The Liberation Debate - I paid the [Generic University] discounted price for this book, about thirty bucks. It's a series of debates about "liberation" of "oppressed minorities" like women, black people, and animals. We didn't even have to read the whole debate on black liberation because the prof thought the arguments against black liberation were "racist". Overall, it was just a bunch of bullshit.
  • Economic Justice - This one was about thirty bucks, too. It describes various economic systems, socialism, libertarian capitalism, et cetera, and essentially makes the argument that socialism is good because it's the "most fair". Again, a bunch of bullshit, and time that would have been better spent reading Orwell's "1984", as was assigned on the syllabus but cut near the end of the quarter since we were running short on class days. This book needs dead.
  • The Chickencoop Chinaman/Year of the Dragon - Remember my ethnic studies class? The one I always whined about because it was basically about how white people were evil, and oppressed Asian people by expecting them to adopt American culture if they were going to leave Asia and come to America? This is a book of two plays by a guy named Frank Chin, who's apparently some beloved Asian American writer. I thought he was pretty much a gomer, and I'll be filling the book full of lead.
  • The Woman Warrior - This is the other book from that ethnic studies class. It's billed as a "memoir" or "semi-autobiographical", but mostly it's a bunch of hypothetical stuff that the author made up in her head and sold. The muckety muck Asian Americans call the author a "sellout" because she used her heritage to sell books. I don't care about much of that, I just want to take out my Christian Capitalist white guy aggression on the "diversity" class that was forced down my throat by the politically correct, liberal university policies.

    I could probably get five or ten bucks by selling the latter two books to a book store in Metropolis, but what's the point?

    The other fun fact about my upcoming shooting expedition is that I'll be videotaping it. Can you picture it?

    "Yeah, this is The Chickencoop Chinaman, from my ethnic studies class. It was basically rubbish, and didn't make any sense. We discussed this book for about three weeks, and all it showed to me was that the author was kind of a pothead who needs to get a real job. Now, today we're going to be using twenty-two caliber hollow points in a Ruger Mark two pistol; as you can see, the Ruger is made to resemble the nine millimeter Luger pistols used by the German Wehrmacht in World War Two. I'm using this particular weapon because it's a small caliber, it takes a bit of precision, and the hollow point round maximizes damage while getting the most out of a limited target resource."

    That's right, folks. Welcome to my world.
