what i find funny is if i say "you dont need a tricked out AR" i instantly get "shotguns and handguns dont work", as if ARs are the only rifles (let alone semiautomatic rifles) in existence.

its ironic given that NRA gun nuts always use this against leftists, "an AR is just a fancy looking semi automatic rifle". but then pretend if ARs are banned that they'll lose a whole category of effectiveness.


I agree with your point that most guys like the tacti-cool look of an AR and can't actually shoot for shit but that doesn't mean that everyone's in the same boat. An AR vs shoty/bolty/w/e is too big of a mismatch. I'm still picking an AR for defense

I just use a 30-06 and keep a shotgun for the tent.

My Browning X-Bolt Hell's Canyon has been a great sub rifle, I picked it up for less than $1,500 CAD at the time.


everyone around me likes .270 over 30-06, but i grew up hunting with a 30-06 m1 garand so im partial to them too. or a .243 if i just want a doe. most hunts tho are a 12 gauge slug because i only have time for a 1 hour swamp loop.

My overall point is that if a school shooters rocking an AR and I'm somehow in the school, I'd want an AR aswell. These are fantastic weapons that scare liberals because the media deems them "deadly assault rifles" AR is a brand.

With the massive amount of guns in the US its simply too easy for criminals to get these weapons. Most school shooters are using rifles (source: my ass) and if you're confronting said individual, you'll 100% want a deadly assault weapon aswell.

most mass shootings and school shootings are done with handguns, then rifles, then shotguns.

her criminal history report is literally embedded in that article as a PDF, did you bother reading it?

Yes, I did. It says "primary" next to the Jeffrey Escalante name. I even went as far as googling what that term means in the context of US/texas criminal records, but couldn't find any info on it; on whether it refers to the birth name, the first name with which the person of interest registered in the criminal justice system, or the one which has shown up most frequently in the criminal records.

he didnt pay for adobe, obviously. way to show your privilege.

Dude, I was genuinely surprised when handcuffs gave me the sci-hub link yesterday. The last time I had heard of that site (in a conversation of others that I overheard) was all the way back in 2013 or 14, before it really took off. The debate was about the "security concerns" which prompted my university to block that site, the guys were debating about how made up and bogus those concerns are.

I have other channels of obtaining any proprietary/paywalled paper from any academic journal in my own field, as well as all adjacent fields, so throughout all those years, I never had a reason to look for alternatives. But maybe I'm just getting old and stuck in my ways while increasingly ignorant to the world around me. :lol: ;)

I mean, if its an el salvadoran immigrant than primary name does not necessarily equal birth name. They try to use the social security name for primary, but that's not necessarily birth name even for US residents and definitely doesn't count whatever el salvador uses for records
All we can know is he was born a biological female and chose to identify as a man named jeffrey, and therefore anyone deadnaming jeffrey and denying his gender identity is committing trans erasure genocide

Man the amount of copium now that the person might not be a tranny and is just another mentally ill person in the good old USA is off the charts.

Ya I checked and you are correct. I just remember that the last couple school shootings were mainly rifles but that's cherrypicking.

I've enjoyed picking your brain about guns; you know your firearms well and you're one of the better shots. I just love me ars is all and I hope they never get janny hammered (soon)

if the govt banned ARs you could still buy a semi automatic rifle that accepts the same capacity clip and rate of fire of any AR. ARs are just for looks, which is what ive always been saying. i never said handguns or shotguns are better at 100 yards, or any other nonsense.

i just laugh because 50% of the people who i know who own ARs are terrible shots. they'd be better off using a box of .22 at the range to get better, but they dont, they waste hundreds on boxes of 556


The NRA is not "right wing". The NRA are garbage people AGAINST the 2nd Amendment who PUSHED the NFA.

Let's be clear: If somebody is trying to kill you from 100 feet away with an AR, and all you have is a shotgun, you're going to fucking die. Done. Assuming they have ANY proficiency whatsoever, you are DEAD. That's it. There are times shotguns and handguns are the most useful in self defense, or the defense of your family, friends, or neighbors. There are other times, however, when higher range and accuracy rifles are the best choice.

Don't quote the ANTI-gun lobby called the NRA to actual 2A supporters. It makes you sound like a fucking idiot.

As to the topic, we're promoting mentally ill people not receive proper treatment for their mental illness, and instead providing them off label medications and surgeries to encourage their mental illness. How did we expect shit to turn out? Did we think the mentally ill would suddenly behave in a rational manner? This is all so predictable, and stupid.

Edit: Just to drive home the point a little bit: You know FUCKALL about guns. Standard AR ammunition is .223/5.56. That's LITERALLY a .22 calibre hunting round. Do you think that just because it's a .223 rather than a .22 LR that it's suddenly not a .22 hunting round? What the fuck are you even talking about? And ARs don't use "clips". They use MAGAZINES you cretin. You know NOTHING about what you're talking about. Try educating yourself prior to weighing in.

I don't think they're monsters, I think they are people who have been very confused and misguided by affirmations of their delusions or maladaptive thought patterns that they become something similar to what was presented in the video. It's the age old trope of the angel and devil on opposite shoulders and you decide who to listen to, because it's true, it's a fairly universal religious belief. We want them to turn their lives around and heal instead of spiraling


you cannot post a video like that and think it has anything to do with transgender people unless you are very brainwashed

When I get the urge to hunt... I just break out my rail gun.
I use it to hunt cement trucks. :D
