I hope Santa brings ammo.  Stuff is so expensive and rare, I am no longer firing warning shots!

I stocked up on ammo right after Trump was elected.  I think I have enough 5.56-9mm-.22LR to last 20 years, and I shoot a lot, as does my son.  I did sell 40 bricks of Blazer .22 LR in the past month to make some room in the safe. Guns are worthless without ammo!

Yes… moar ammo is the key. 

Give guns away for free… but, tax the shite out of ammo. You could still use the guns as clubs, when you’re out hunting. Sport is sport.

Took this Duke professor 40 years to figure it out?
That's a very slim chance that if you shoot somebody in Durham that you're going to get arrested for it," said Cook. "You can shoot another person with virtually impunity because the police and detectives had not had the resources to do their job effectively."

Why would anyone want to love in Durham?  And if you did, better own a gun and LOTS of ammo!

Who controlled Congress 25 years ago?

So the Dem’s asked for $50 million for the study, but the Republican’s voted for the $25 million amount.  Darn good thing the Republicans were in charge back then, so only $25 M was pissed away!

Yes, you're right. Because, funding research to curb gun violence in our country would be such a terrible thing.

I'm not entirely sure you think these thoughts through, prior to posting them in the ether...

When one sees the country in such simple terms as us and them, winning and losing displaces progress as your measure of success.

I understand that this was mocked because people thought CNN was trying to suggest that setting fires is still peaceful, but that's not actually what happened.   The reporter shown there actually said that there had been peaceful protests earlier in the day, but that those stood in contrast to the scenes unfolding behind him.  

But that doesn't jive with the narrative, so... keep on keepin on.  

Pretty sure the tagline says all anyone needs to know.  This is a screen capture.  That is what CNN chose to display.  In many places CNN is on in the background with no audio.  Airport, Dr. Office, Shopping Center, etc.

You mean just like everyone knew KR was a murderer after the first news reports?

And that he was a white supremacist.  That has to be true, since our fearless leader said it!  Joe would never lie.😜  

He didn't say it but he implied it on a couple occasions and I think that was wrong to do unless there was direct evidence that he was self-proclaimed of affiliated with one of those groups.

I believe that came from this photo when he was flashing the “White Power” sign with Proud Boys while drinking in a bar (at 17) when he was out on bail

Well, there it is.  There’s always a hand signal, that’s how you know they’re a legit gang.
