Doubt that. They are pretty much untouchable.

Really?

This is the first you are catching wind of this? Apple has been anti gun for many years.

Anyway, still like their stuff, albeit less than with Jobs at the helm, this won't change anything.

Android is anti gun too, so don't run there.

 

[Catskillkid]

Pretty much every tech company is anti-gun and progressive (at least socially). I for one refuse to pay for their way overpriced products (at least when they first come out) but you're not going to be find another company that's especially pro gun. I mean they're the ones who took away the revolver emoji and replaced it with a squirt gun because it was too threatening.

 

[Calculon]

Time for DJT to ramp up the anti-trust folks at DOJ and target all these tech firms. Apple controls approx 40% of phone market and Google controls approx 90% of search worldwide. Like the old time phone company - break em up.

 

[GOPerfect]

Fuck them and anyone else who is against my Constitution and my Rights.

I have never owned an Apple product, nor will I.

If I were to own no product of a company that was for gun control, I may not own anything.

 

[Marine Cpl]

I don't wory about such nonsense. Android is anti-gun and so is Microsoft. Hell, the inventors of this software that this forum runs on was invented by 2 leftist liberals from England.

You can't boycott everything. It's impossible unless you live off the grid in Alaska and live a subsistence lifestyle and build everything you use from scratch with wood and grow and hunt your own food.

 

[libertysnake]

I'd say you'd have to be a lot more fearless to be a conservative in today's political climate than any liberal will have to be.

Why you tired of a phone that restrict you and monitor everything you do to better sell you shit you never wanted at a price you can't afford all rap in a stylish package. Half of apple design goes into style then comes function.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

Wonder if they're refusing phone sales and service to convicted drug dealers?

 

[Podmonkey]

This is why we need a Civil War. It can serve as cover while some of us burn these liberals out.

 

[JaguarJaguarGolf]

He should set the example and do away with his armed security.

Why-you tired of a phone that restrict you and monitor everything you do to better sell you shit you never wanted at a price you can't afford all rap in a stylish package. Half of apple design goes into style then comes function.

Yes I am but I love how easy iPhone is to use. I really hate that they screw with your functions if you don’t get their latest phone

 

[1911guy]

I am soooooo happy I have never owned and Apple product.

 

[SomeSoldier]

Tim Cook doesnt give two shits about any of that. He just wants to sell more crap to buy another pedo island.

 

[Jmac00]

In case you guys didn't know, the "head" of the deep state is NOT George Soros, it just so happens to be Tim Schmitt, of Google fame. he lives in Singapore.

Why does he live in Singapore, because he hates America? He is PERSONAL FRIENDS with Hillary Clinton and donated a boatload of money to her campaign.

All these multi-BILLIONAIRES are social engineers. They have the money, and therefore the power, to shape a society into what they want.

The 2016 Election of Mr. Trump threw a wrench into their plans, things are only going to get worse. The Mueller "investigation" is just a starting point. we are going to see this 'bloom' into an all-out attack on the American way of life by 2020.

If conservatives lose the 2018 mid-terms, President Trump will be all but done.

The problem is the American people are apathetic. They simply don't care and are exhausted by the constant barrage of lies from the media. if the middle class decides to not vote in November, the country is pretty much screwed.

The election of President Trump was huge. But, the mid-terms in November is critical. If Democrats gain control, all kinds of bad things are going to happen.

If you are a Prepper, I strongly suggest you get your shit together, by the first weekend in Nov. you (and the rest of us) maybe implementing our SHTF plans

Tossing capitalism out the window because you disagree with a company's political stance?

Cook said: "Fearless like those who fight for the rights of immigrants"



The leftists always leave out the word "illegal" ... FUAC does this too.
We all know damn well that they are not referring to the immigrants that come through the front door legally.

Words have meaning, by leaving out the word "illegal" is just straight up lying by omission.
How do you know when a Democrat is lying? ... It's when their lips are moving.

It seems to me that if the liberal Democrat way is really so great. And if everyone would just go along with them that we would all live in a utopia of no violence and unicorns prancing around pooping out ice cream cones topped with pixie dust... If that was true, they wouldn't have to constantly lie and use a play on words like they always do to get the gullible sheep to buy into what they are selling.

And regarding the way that the liberal Democrats use a play on words goes, that is also lying.
For an example the "Affordable Health Care Act" which should be named at the very least the "Unaffordable Health Care Act"

"Dreamers?" Give me a fucking break.

How about Cuomo's "NY SAFE Act" which IMO should be named at the very least the "NY Tyranny Act" How the fuck is turning a million+ law abiding NY citizens into criminals by the stroke of a pen in the middle of the night make anyone any safer...
IT DOESN'T ---------------------- DEMOCRATS. LIE. ALL. OF. THE. TIME.

Rant Over /













Oh wait,,, I got more just bare with me... LOL

If the Democrats ever told the truth and didn't have the MSM covering their asses they wouldn't hold so much power.
I would like to see the Leftists for once tell the truth like these examples below.

LIE = (Affordable Health Care Act)
TRUTH = I am proposing the "Unaffordable Health Care Act.
If you like your doctor there is no way in hell that you can keep that doctor sucka !

LIE = (You didn't build that)
TRUTH = You built that.

LIE = (NY SAFE Act)
TRUTH = I don't care how much corruption it takes, I want a "NY Tyranny Act" bill on my desk so I can sign it some time in the middle of the night and rob the law abiding, tax paying, family men, of their constitutional rights and make it as difficult as possible for them to successfully protect their families... From the very criminals that I Andy Cuomo, want to offer a free college education to (well actually you tax payers that I just screwed over will pay for it.) But I will still call it free anyways because that's what us Democrats do, we lie, we lie and misdirect all of the time and that's the truth just this one time. and I will also make it so they will be allowed to vote for me while out on parole... But fuck you and your 2A rights you law abiding tax payers.

Stop the madness, don't listen to the extremists. Violent criminals should not have to contend with a heavily armed citizenry... UNCONSTITUTIONAL you say? Who the fuck cares, we got the corrupt NYS courts bought off... Wah ha ha ha Waaah ha ha ha ha, the peasants don't have say in it, Wah ha ha ha. They effectively have no representation. Wah ha ha ha,
They have no voice, Wah ha ha ha ha.


Well the four paragraphs above explains why the leftists lie ALL OF THE TIME... THEY CAN'T TELL THE TRUTH...
THEY JUST CAN'T ... I could do these type of examples all night if I wanted to.

IMO unlike the gullible leftist supporters, the leftist leaders know that there will be No Utopia. No Unicorns, No Rainbows,
Just a socialist shithole... But "they" will get richer and more powerful... Just like the plantation owners of years ago.




Now I'm done... I think.......................... Yeah I'm done,,, Rant Over for real this time.
God Bless President Donald J Trump... He is not perfect, but man did we dodge a bullet.

I laugh at the Iphone users who dont realize how much better Android is.
Its night and day.
Its amazing how much more you can do with Android, and all for free.
Anyways, I prefer Android.

Please tell me more about how they are better. My wife an I have been think about switching to androids. I know nothing about them.
I’ll start a thread about this instead of hijacking this one

You can customize your screen to your liking with widgets instead of having just rows of icons.

If you like a certain keyboard, maps app, texting app, email app, ect... You can select it to open as a default. Apple doesn't allow this to force you to use their apps.

Most apps are free.

You get quick charging technology.

The actual hardware is better depending on the type of phone you get. IE better camera, stronger glass, better speakers, bigger battery, SD card support, ect. My battery lasts 2 full days. I don't have to walk around with a charger.

You can use apps like Terrarium, Showbox, torrent downloaders, ect to watch free movies and TV shows.

You can multitask. For example... Watch a movie and surf the net on a split screen.

Most apps are free.

You have a back button.


The iPhone is usually about 3 to 5 years behind in regards to features compared to Google. It's catching up. However if none of what I wrote really concerns you, you might as well stay with you phone you have. The iPhone to me it's more like a phone with nice features. The Google phone is more like a computer that you can make calls on. I rarely use a computer anymore since I can do everything on my phone.

Thank you for that.
I realized after I opened my mouth that I would need to explain how Android is better.
There are soooooo many ways, it takes alot of typing
Did you mention you can get a very capable phone for a fraction of the cost of Iphone?
And the 3rd party apps?
And the SD card?

 

[Marine Cpl]

Thank you for that.

Yeah. Those are just the ones of the top of my head. You also get HDMI support, you can type by swipping, some models allow you to handwrite with a stylus instead of typing, other models have a built in IR blaster that allow you to use your phone as a universal remote control. They're are many more features that I can't think of. The newer phones even allow you to take slow motion video.

My Samsung Note 5 does all this and more.
How about if you take a picture but miss the "moment", you can alter the photo to the moment before.
For instance, you take a picture of your kid blowing out birthday candles but you miss the exact second the candles go out. You can push a button to go back in time up to a few seconds so you get the candles going out.
I was shocked how bad the cameras are on the new Iphones.
