14 Students and a teacher dead at a Texas Elementary School
- Thread starter $kully
- Start date
The Dobie-O-Matic of Far Side fame just isn't enough anymore.
What would do more damage?
Catapulting pitbulls onto the playground during recess or catapulting kids into a fenced pitbull enclosure?
How many 10 year olds could a pitbull eat? Would they stay on one or diversify?
Things to consider.
You do realize that I don't advocate for that. I do however believe it should be up to the individual states to decide because that's how our Constitution is written.
If they prefer white meat or dark meat, does that make the pitbulls racist? Asking for a friend.
25 years ago was 1997
Die Hard came out in 1988, Commando 1985
The "badass" ones were around then
I do agree with your overall point though
Ownership should be protected because they are specifically designed to kill humans? I'd love to read an actual logical argument about this.
The primary rifle used by US Army snipers is a customized Remington model 700 firing a round that is very similar to the .308 that is popular for deer hunting. Now they are also using the Barrett .50 and the TAC338 which is what you'll see in the movie American Sniper.
Here is the standard Army issue Remington M24 sniper rifle.
Here is a bone stock Remington 700 that is very popular for deer hunting which you can buy at your favorite gun store, Cabellas/Bass Pro starting at $499. They also make a cheap model 783 that is basically the same for $349.
Here is a heavily modified Remington 700 set up for competition putting holes in targets at long range or hitting steel targets.
And here it is in the movie The Deer Hunter.......

remember the “fish frys” or maybe the “anything but 3” get togethers...?
could we organize something where a bunch of us show up with our fave and sundry firearms and ordnance?
that’d be so cool... maybe come to some type of beachgoing consensus/settle some petty scores...
since some of you don’t bother surfing anymore, how about we have it on the boardwalk in venice - collateral damage wouldn’t be much of an issue... ?
do i remember a vid clip of a bunch of weirdos on wavestorms bumrushing uppers/lowers ?
something like that...
aim for the hottest day in august.
hawgboy could work out the details and set up the terms of engagement...

We joke about catapulting, but what happens if someone (God forbid) does the thing that happened back in april in afghanistan? Would we say "welp......nothing can be done.....no way to avoid it.......cost of freedumz"?
Why the Police Took 78 Minutes to Stop the Uvalde Gunman
In the days since the shooting, questions have abounded about the response from law enforcement officers.
Detailed analysis of the timeline.
Edit: Apparently, it was the school district police that has jurisdiction over schools and all other police had to follow its commands.

With hunting deer you dont want to obliterate the meat or the skin. With School Children who cares?

And the Uvalde mayor defended the independent school district police chief's decision.
Be careful what you ask for, I guess. "School guards."
Because the second amendment is there as a deterrent to the government turning on its people. The better the weapon in the hands of citizens the better the deterrent, and the more a nefarious government would want to take from us (hence the importance of the need for protection).
In a similar way, the 1st amendment isn’t there to protect speech we all like. It’s there to protect things we don’t want to hear from people we hate. But it’s especially there to protect speech that is dangerous to those in power.
