Lets suppose for a minute that suppressors become available through vending machines and at WalMart. No tax stamp, just cash or credit card.
I can see municipalities across the country adding regulations requiring suppressors at outdoor public ranges where housing developments have popped up in the recent past.
How would you like to see a potential multiverse wherein suppressors go from prohibited to required? Is that not just as oppressive a dictate from government? Would we not have the NRA and FPC running campaigns against mandatory suppressor use? “It adds an unreasonable financial burden on our 2nd Amendment right to require suppressors…”
Or maybe this is how we pitch it to Liberals. “You know… I have this way to make all guns more expensive, and the RKBA crowd will simply love it! As a matter of fact, they’re proposing it now. Hear me out…

I laughed out loud.
It would be an interesting change of perspective to be in court fights insisting requirements to possess are unconstitutional. We could always offer the compromise of government subsidies. Of course, such subsides must be funded by taxes on those who registered as being gun free. And those registries would, of course, be public records available to everyone.
In a defensive scenario you never want to go for the face. You always want to go Center Mass or my personal favorite the dick.
If you make it the mistake of trying to rob me oh you freaking dumb ass. Guess what? You’re getting a shot towards a dick.
Reason being the pelvis actually holds up the whole entire body. If you take that out they are now immobile. And, you get to shoot them in the dick more.
Body armor? No problem shoot them in the dick!
Someone’s taller than you? No problem! Shoot them in the dick!
Moral of the story? I’m probably going to shoot you in the dick, honestly.
This is reasonable advice if your attacker does not have a gun of their own. Adjust appropriately for non-males who are an imminent threat to innocent life.
Amidst all of the condemnation of Gavin Newsom, Karen Bass and the rest of California’s Democrat/DEI leadership, we need to give credit where credit is due.
They succeeded brilliantly in bringing equity to Los Angeles.
Now, billionaire movie stars enjoy the same living conditions as the rest of California’s homeless population.
While this is worth a smile and probably a laugh, they have not really achieved equity.
At last count I read, there were only 11 people that achieved total equity. It has been a good try. However, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, and other communists set the bars for lifetime achievement awards much higher.
“I think gold is actually in a kind of a smaller bubble by itself now,” Zeberg stated. “I think you’re going to see a rather strong decline in gold to the very reasons that I just said talked about here.”
Zeberg’s bearish stance on gold is rooted in his expectation of a deflationary bust. As the economy contracts and inflation falls, the US dollar is likely to strengthen, making gold a less attractive asset.
“I don’t want to hold gold into that environment,” he said. “I actually think it’s a very bad environment to hold gold.”
Gold Forecast 1 Year Bullish: $3,200 Medium-term price drivers: US dollar, bear market in stocks and recession, investor sentiment
Gold Forecast 3 Years Bullish: $4,825 Long-term price drivers: US dollar, US budget deficits, central bank monetary debasement, negative real interest rates, and the potential for an uptick in sovereign buying.
I’m reminded of something an old engineer I knew many years ago was fond of saying:
The wonderful thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from.
Above all I would advise people against posting expressions and videos of their personal anguish over the election, there is a substantial number of people here who use this as masturbation material.
Sure, this is rather funny. I doubt there is much truth to it though. Yeah, there are some really strange kinks out there. But I doubt there are “a substantial number of people” which find this sexually arousing.
I think the more likely situation is that Burge finds it humorous to increase the anguish.
Although, there is one person who replied to his post with “I’m literally out of lube and shooting dust”. But I think he is joking too.
With news continuing to filter in about the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the nation’s prominent Democrats expressed relief that Hitler was OK.
Following a busy weekend of making public statements and social media posts clearly identifying Trump as “literally Hitler” and telling the country that he posed a grave threat to the existence of the United States, Democratic leaders quickly made it known how glad they were to find out he was unharmed.
“We’re just glad the greatest threat to democracy is safe,” said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. “I know just an hour or so before he narrowly avoided a second attempt on his life I posted online about how he was leading the charge to destroy America and had to be stopped, but I’m relieved to hear that he wasn’t harmed.”
Heading into last weekend the heavy money was on Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro getting the nod from the DNC to be Harris’s running mate. I was always skeptical of that, given the current state of the Democratic Party. It seemed a bit of a stretch that the virulently antisemitic Democrats of 2024 would pick a Jewish man to be on the ticket. Seriously, Shapiro is lucky that the Dems didn’t call in some of the Squad’s brownshirts to give him a wrist tattoo and striped pajamas.
That last one has its humor but we all know it is false. After seeing that, they would burn your house down with you in it, destroying the list, and the claim they did it for your children who were in the house with you..
I think I found this on X or Gab. I’m just not sure where:
A Russian wife turned to her husband and asked, “What’s this special military operation our glorious leader keeps talking about?” Her husband replied, “It’s a war to stop America and NATO.” “Oh, right” she says “How’s it going?”
“Well” he replied “so far we have lost over 20 generals, 100,000 troops killed, countless injured, 3000 tanks, 300 aircraft, hundreds of helicopters, countless armoured vehicles, artillery and trucks, our flagship along with other naval ships, our army is being defeated in most areas and we have had to resort to conscripting 500,000 Russians including murders and rapists to replace our losses”.
“Wow” replied the wife “what about America and NATO”?
“They haven’t turned up yet”
While not entirely true, there is probably a little too much truth to be funny to the top Russian politicians and the military.
The ATF rules are different than “assault weapon” bans, but I think the odds are good that SCOTUS will eventually kill them too.
I like the FPC. They work on a lot of 2nd Amendment cases, get decent results so I donate a fair amount of money (matched by my employer) to them each year.
While amusing, don’t post this at the entrance to your home. Should you ever be forced to defend innocence life using deadly force the meme would likely be used as evidence at your trial.
