    Robb Elementary School shooting

    tbf some of the first automatics were semiautomatic, and that did place them in a new category. Before the automatic pistol (Browning's 1911 being the archetype for Americans) you had revolvers; the automatics were cycled with recovered energy from the last round fired. And Browning's design...

    Suicidality and the Second Amendment

    Pertinent threads: https://theologyonline.com/threads/all-things-second-amendment.46265/ https://theologyonline.com/threads/guns.55521/ About two-thirds of gun deaths in America are by suicide. But what you may not know and I certainly didn't appreciate it til this week, is that mass shooters...

    Robb Elementary School shooting

    A 12ga 00 buck shell is like 12 .357 magnum rounds coming at you all at once. Although I prefer 000. I never worked out the math on those ones. And of course the 1oz. rifled slugs? Knock you over, pack a whallop.

    Mine are evidently broken. Not a single murder from each of them. Probably need to look into getting a refund.

    They're real guns. They count. Especially as compared to the shooting experience of most other earthlings. Most of mine were .45ACP and NATO 7.62. And I'll take the rifle over the pistol in a heartbeat.

    The second day was the toughest, after that it was smooth sailing. Lost a little over 3% of my body weight after the four days.

    Robb Elementary School shooting

    You're dealing with a European who at half a century of age has probably never held a real gun, let alone fired even one round through one. In my life, rough order magnitude, I haven't fired 100,000 rounds, but I bet it's 10,000, because I know for certain it's way more than a thousand; and I'm...

    Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

    I don't have a problem with the second impeachment. But the first one? That was absolutely electioneering, it was 100% partisan, which ought to be embarrassing but that's the world we're living in now. And it worked too, so why on Earth wouldn't they hold these "J6" now they're calling it...

    What are you watching now

    I have access to Pluto, I'll check it out. Yes I liked him in Parks and Rec and on the Marvel movies. But I don't know what ^this^ is yet.

    Fiona Hill: "The president was trying to stage a coup"

    What does any of this have to do with electioneering? And remember the hearings themselves are electioneering.

    In the analogy there's the presumption of teachers overseeing the playground, in the real world there's only just the kids on the playground and they all have to figure out the stick matter all by themselves.

    Guns!

    He had ill intent and had drawn a gun. If he doesn't neutralize him immediately he could have turned the gun on him and fired. At that close? Can't blame him for going for the head. How else could he guarantee that gun's not getting turned on him? It was in his hand. He was right next to...

    So. Science. Never did I imagine I'm putting the cart before the horse but I am wondering if that's in fact what I was suggesting here. I was fasting a meal or two leading up to Fridays and then fasting on Fridays completely, and then lifting on Saturdays. I tried lifting right from the fast...

    That's the one. I misremembered the quote; turns out her actual quote sounds even more pro-homeschooling.

    Yeah. Did that guy get a background check? Can we use a red flag law for him? He's going to hurt himself. Oh, and that stick, what is that, a long-barreled stick? Better call ATS, bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Sticks.
