    The 2A UNDER ATTACK & Here’s How Trump Can Fix The Problem

    Yeah, I'm not going to fight the military on my own. But that doesn't matter, because I lost all of my guns in an unfortunate boating accident the day before the confiscation order came out. I'll contract Darth to scuba them out when the real fight starts.

    The 2A UNDER ATTACK & Here’s How Trump Can Fix The Problem

    Eh, this seems like a pretty weak argument. "2A is a right, so firearms or firearm parts should be excluded from tariffs" is a cop-out. The whole point of tariffs is to bring manufacturing to home soil. If that means increased prices for a while, that's fine... it's a cost of implementing good...

    Handgun falls out of man's pocket while he's on ride at Boonville-Oneida County Fair

    Remember when our governor declared that we were "extremists?" Many on the left consider our interest in firearms to be a mental illness in itself. Again, agree to exclude certain groups and the other side will seek to expand that group to include you.

    Handgun falls out of man's pocket while he's on ride at Boonville-Oneida County Fair

    Holy shit, am I on a gun-grabber forum? Have we learned nothing? Opening the door to gun control is akin to opening the floodgates. You guys aren't wrong, per se: some people are too stupid to have guns. But, give the government the right to make that distinction and pretty soon, everyone will...

    Gov. FUKH signs crossbow legislation

    I'm not a fan of the early seasons - bow, youngsters, etc. It's not about competition for me (I'm the world's least inspired, and possibly least successful, hunter).

    Police involved shooting in Buffalo/Cheektowaga. Interesting video

    Female cop kinda cute, but she's probably gaining a point or two from the uniform. She's useless at best as an actual cop... all I saw her doing was standing in the wrong spots and running around with her hands in the air like she saw a mouse. I didn't see her service weapon out at all...

    Felony Arrest Made After State Police Responded Harassment Complaint

    I wonder what the woman was up to. I saw "retrieving mail from the residence," but then it says she drove up the driveway to turn around... so she was retrieving mail from a mailbox that was not hers? Is she a porch pirate? Not saying that shooting the vehicle of a porch pirate is a good idea...

    Gerrymandering

    I love how CNN is making the Texas thing front-page while completely ignoring the never-ending attempts of NY to do the same thing. We've had our redistricting thrown out by courts twice now, IIRC, and now they're pushing to do it again.

    Gabbard claims treasonous conspiracy

    Overpriced, underwhelming. Just like what will come out of the things discussed in this thread.

    Hochul Calls for Nationwide Ban on ‘Assault Weapons’ in Wake of NYC Shooting

    He's saying that someone commented on a post of Stefanik's, not that she said it. There's a possibility it's true, but if so, it's the usual confusion: correlation is not causation. Homicide rates and crime rates in general have been dropping for decades. No one can point to any single law or...

    NJ gets sued for banning suppressors

    You haven't been paying attention, sir. The Big Beautiful Bill removed silencers from the NFA.

    2 shootings in Rochester- Amazon & Wegmans

    I might know why. I worked at that Wegmans warehouse for a bit. I busted my ass stacking boxes on pallets for 8 hours a day, making $10/hr. Meanwhile, three senior guys stood at the end of the line shooting the shit. When my pallet was full, one of them would hop on a ride-on pallet jack, lift...

    Multi-Billion Dollar Boondoggle: Biden Admin Plan For Electric Mail Trucks Flops Massively

    Maybe, but if so, $200k per charger? WTF... I suspect what they're doing government accounting tricks. Sure, it's "only" $78k per vehicle for the production contract, but we spent $200k per (projected) vehicle on R&D that we're now pretending isn't part of the total cost. Of course, now that...

    Multi-Billion Dollar Boondoggle: Biden Admin Plan For Electric Mail Trucks Flops Massively

    Phew... $10B for 35,000 vehicles? That's almost $286k per vehicle. Also known as A COMPLETE RIPOFF.

    ‘Late Show’ with Stephen Colbert Canceled on CBS: ‘Financial Decision’

    Have to agree with many of the posts here. When you move from "comedy show for everyone" to "liberal propaganda hour," don't be surprised when half or more of your audience finds something better to do. That said, while I'm pretty sure that didn't help matters, the most likely cause here is the...
