  • Hanging out with the wrong crowd? It’s my family. And about half of them aren’t even Republicans. If anything, THEY hang out with the wrong crowd. And considering that you make guns such a large part of your identity, even making it a regular social interaction, I have a hard time believing that you’ll look at it from anyone else’s perspective. I especially doubt your ability to judge who should and shouldn’t have a gun, because you literally go to clubs full of people and judge their ability to responsibly own a gun off of their social skills, which for many people is a facade they create to seem normal. I doubt that the guy who’s excited to kill people is talking about it like that at club time. And my problem isn’t just intent. My problem with my family, specifically, is that they’re all a bunch of scared little bitches who are going to shoot at the first thing that scares their precious little baby asses. And I’ve met a shitload of fearful gun owners. I grew up in the South. Saying you’ve only met a dozen, means that you don’t pay attention, you excuse more than you should, or you’re just lying.


  • In my experience, overly fearful people that get terrified over nothing are the primary audience for gun ownership. The mindset it takes to responsibly own and carry a gun is RARE.

    I have 60+ year old relatives that suddenly all decided they wanted a gun, just because one of them bought one and won’t shut up about the confidence it gives her. She literally bought it just to walk to and from her car, which is parked directly in front of the business SHE owns, despite there being absolutely zero crime happening in her parking lot, and not bothering to set up security cameras. She literally bought a gun because she was afraid of a non-existent problem, and made no non-violent effort to correct the issue. I’m waiting for her to shoot some poor homeless person asking for change…

    If owning a gun makes you confident, then you’re a scared little baby. Especially the guys with big trucks that drive like they’re trying to provoke people. I KNOW you have a gun. You bought the little dick pride set, so there’s no way you don’t have a gun. Quit trying to make excuses to pull it out. Pussies. FYI, I’m driving slow in front of you BECAUSE you’re driving like an ass hole and riding my bumper. Wave your gun at me again. I do not care.





  • Hell, just the other day, I found out the 120mm cannon on the Abrams is a German design that we bought the rights to manufactured ourselves. We get more than just materials and parts from other countries. And it hamstrings us from involving ourselves in certain conflicts, which seems counterproductive. Especially when China is just as aggressive as we are on the world stage, while peace with them has also been one of our largest assets.

    I’m one of those weird people that thinks war history is interesting as hell, but also hates these resource wars and our involvement in them as a country. Fighting back the Germans in order to save the world is one thing. Flying jets over countries that don’t even build jet aircraft, hailing gunfire and bombs down upon people that may not even have internal plumbing in some places, is shameful and greedy. Attempting to convince children to join in that gruesome national passtime should get you labeled as a groomer and ostracized from society. I don’t care how many jobs in the military don’t involve killing poor brown people. It all supports the act, regardless.

    And don’t get me started on the horrific amount of SA and murder cover-ups that happen in our military.
