Yeah, my shop is one of those small family owned joints. They have your Springfields and Colts and shit, but they're a Sig graveyard. The dude behind the counter was oohing and aahing over the MPX. Motherfucker almost got me for a can though, so i'm probably the real mark. He had me about to register it individually and put it in jail right there lmao.

FLOL.

To be fair a suppressor is on my list of "to get things" in the next year. Going to get a Deadair Sandman cause you can run it on both .30 and 5.56. Then I can run it on the AR-10, the AR pistol that is a Mk18 clone, and the 6.5 Creed bolt project I have.

My preferred shop down here is an AK graveyard. Literally never see any save for like a Draco pistol once in awhile. PLENTY of SCARs, ARs, and modernized FALs.

Terrorists?

For me, 2018 was personally one of, if not, the worst years of my life then 2019 was one of, if not, the best. Now 2020 is weird cause personally I’m all good and okay but the world is on fire.

The bold part is exactly how I felt about this year so far, but now I'm starting to feel the toll on my body from all the exhaustion and stress. Its getting to me.

surprised cruz didn't say, the crowd had aks and rpgs. That's why they had to be cleared out. ive never seen such bravery!

Uh okay but as I said while voting is important for local politics its the culmination of a grassroots strategy that means little on its own. Like I said if you have no power over what appears on the ballot the power of your vote is limited. You said voting is the best method, I simply said that on its own its not enough and even your posts since then have implicitly admitted this given references to the more vague phenomenon of local, grassroots politics which involves a lot more than mere voting.

Right we agree on that. I NEVER said just passively voting is enough. That’s a strawman you keep introducing into your replies to me. I consistently mentioned petitioning mayors to change police chiefs, putting forth candidates who hold your ideals, etc. as being integral to the voting process.

I just disagreed with your assertion that, “Voting is probably one of the least significant things you can do to have an impact on politics.” I think the vote is just as important as the other steps.

This only dragged on so long because you attributed a bunch of positions to me that I didn’t say and don’t hold (that voting on its own is enough, that I’m uneasy with protests and discourage them).

It's not a big mystery, the answers are here:

Policing practices have thoroughly studied for decades now and a bunch of solutions have come out from this. This is the best, research-based set of solutions that I know.

All 10 of these methods have a plethora of studies backing up their effectiveness.

Good link. Thankfully we have nearly all of those policies in place here. The only one I saw that we don’t have is the prohibition on firing at moving vehicles.

I hope the symptoms don’t overlap and confuse drs.

With Ebola you tend to bleed out and die, so should be able to tell the difference.

They should just end likes if they’re going to ration them out

 

[Possum Jenkins]

Hadn't seen this one from Joe before

One of the most overlooked parts of the Reagan administration is that it supported Apartheid South Africa.

Biden isn't being a radical here, he's just being a moderate Democrat, like he's always been. Because to support Jim Crow on steroids in the late 1980s is peak scumbaggery/piece of garbageness/degeneracy/I'm out of adjectives.

And this is every right-winger's most beloved president.

Will trade food stamps for like stamps

They should just reset everyone to zero every month.

 

[Jesus H. Sherdog]

They should just reset everyone to zero every month.

Or just keep it at zero. People get too invested in it, it’s sad tbh

I mean if they can’t completely just take it away.

I like both of these suggestions.

Would getting rid of the counter but keeping the likes help?

Yeah that would be cool. You can like posts but it doesn’t keep count. No idea if it’s helpful or not though.

With Ebola you tend to bleed out and die, so should be able to tell the difference.

Though what if you're bleeding out and simultaneously have symptoms of a mild cold?

 

[JDragon]

I think the problem is GDPR requests.

 

[Jesus H. Sherdog]

I think the problem is GDPR requests.

My problem is not knowing what that means

People will claim that they're counting corona deaths as ebola deaths to inflate the ebola death numbers. ''Did you die OF ebola, or did you die WITH ebola?''
