It’s so nice to be away from the stench of your festering rot America, you shithole.

Re: Only in America
The Republicans can't think of a good example where you need an AR-15. Feral pigs they said. But I thought of one. A blind person protecting themselves in a home invasion. Shoot everything!

Re: Only in America
In the US today, the old joke now goes like this:
"Is that a gun in your pocket, or are you just glad to see me?"
"I think you know the answer to that, asshole..."

On Friday night, Benjamin Hernandez was having dinner with his wife at Uptown Sushi in Houston when the Republican senator and NRA ally Ted Cruz walked in. Hernandez is not naturally combative. He had never attended a protest in his life before the election of Donald Trump. But things are different now. “After the Uvalde attack, I tweeted that we need to confront these hypocritical assholes,” he said. “But tweeting is easy, right? And here’s the guy. I thought, I gotta go and talk to him.”
Hernandez approached the senator and asked for a photo. Instead, his wife started filming as the two of them smiled. Then Hernandez asked Cruz why he wouldn’t support new measures to limit the availability of guns
In the video, Cruz barely flinches at this abrupt change of tone; he still has his arm on Hernandez’s shoulder as he tells him he combines “ignorance and hatred”. Then security guards intervene, and as his wife films, Hernandez raises his voice to a level that silences the restaurant. “19 children died!” he shouts, as he is dragged away. “19 children died! That’s on your hands! Ted Cruz, that’s on your hands!”
A bystander, filming another video which has now been viewed almost 9m times, laughs nervously. Cruz sits back down. Muzak continues to tinkle in the background. Even so, it feels like a tiny little tear is forming in the fabric of American political life.

Re: Only in America
Sleepy Joe wants to ban 9mm handguns, because the round "blows the lungs right out of the body".
Only a hollow point, Joe, FMJ will punch right through.

Re: Only in America
After the AR-15s are taken away, the 9mm is what you need to shoot (through the door) those hone invaders or loved ones banging on your door. "Oh, it was you. I thought you were at work."
https://nypost.com/2022/05/30/biden-goe ... m-pistols/Biden’s statements about 9mm pistols are in keeping with his rhetoric before entering the White House. At a 2019 fundraiser in Seattle, for example, then-candidate Biden asked his audience: “Why should we allow people to have military-style weapons including pistols with 9mm bullets and can hold 10 or more rounds?”
According to Shooting Industry magazine, 9mm pistols accounted for 56.8% of all handguns made in the US during 2019. In all, more than 15.1 million 9mm guns were produced in this country during the 2010s. The possibility of outlawing or otherwise regulating such weapons are likely to be a non-starter among conservatives and gun rights advocates.

Re: Only in America
I own an actual military handgun in 9mm, a 1944 Walther P-38. Only holds 7 + 1. Do I get to keep that one, Daddy Joe? My non-military 9mm is a 17 +1, but since it's not "military" can I keep it too?
As for shooting through doors, I'll take a 12 gauge with #6 over either a 5.56 or a 9.

Re: Only in America
Damn went right the fuck through. Maybe I should look into a carbine in 9mm.
