Man, right wing media is all about anti trans messaging this week.
Thats especially bad because theres no serious acting 3rd party to fill the vacuum.
They can't cave on this. Resign with dignity if it comes to this.
Every one of these motherfuckers would trust a doctor if they broke their leg.
Virginia Beach City Hall, for one.
Depends on weapon, cartridge, suppressor, ambient noise and intermediate barriers. Doesnt take all that much to muffle a subsonic small or medium caliber pistol or carbine.
And now we're back to the strawman, because you didnt read the thread, Izzy.
Sure man. There's lots of room for details. Unfortunately, one side makes proposals, arguments, and brings in real world problems that beg for solutions. The other side quotes bumper stickers and yells "no" a lot. Then wonders why they don't have a hand in crafting good gun laws.
Lethality is enhanced if detection, and police arrival are delayed. Lethality is enhanced if people have less time to run away.
Okay. Still, nobody serious trying to take their places.
Whatever dude. Crooks and crazies don't do the process. Dudes who do, make sure the suppressor isn't stolen Machine guns are similar, and they're easier to cover.
I just said, "meaningful regulation," A national database is a hard sell.
Nah, the wait and extra expense is typically what makes them rare, with a variety of pleasant consequences, like they are rarely used in crimes.
maybe that's 'cause they're subject to such rigorous government control? What, and this is crazy, if we regulated all guns in a meaningful way, instead of trying to ban a few of them?
Depends on the cartridge, the weapon, the silencer, ambient noise, and what's between you and the gun. It's very possible that suppressed sub sonic gunshots will not be identified as gunshots by those nearby. So, "youre absolutely going to hear it," is a total bullshit statement
So, un, it certainly can be automatic.
Y'all coulda made the headline, "The Science doesn't support that," but you chose soft clickbait
Democrats aren't the heroes we need. They might be what we've got. I dont see any third party acting like a serious threat to them.
Not cool. It's a retcon in real life
If RFK can describe a mitochondria better than a 9th grader, ill shit myself.
Would y'all believe i mixed up two church shooters for a minute?
I suggest, "Put Maxwell back in a real prison,"as well, only because I dont trust any list that Trumps people have had 7 months with
The latest killer was trans, and also a white nazi. Wanna lock up all white people and nazis? Or just trans people?
Are Democrats really going to try to remain moderates this year? Read the fucking room, guys. I've voted Democratic for a long time, but I no longer consider myself a Democrat. What a bunch of clown shoes.
She was shot as the first member of an angry mob to breach a barricade. Thereafter, nobody else tried to breach it. Id say she died for a good cause, just not the cause she was fighting for.
Its terrible when people care about others. Anything that lowers IQ and empathy should do the trick.
Too bad fines and damages so rarely change the LAPD.
TACO, again?
I understand they were also a Nazi who had an unhealthy obsession with school shootings and guns. Is the right going to attack gun nuts and Nazis? Unlikely.
I guess America is bored with talking about the price of groceries. Probably will be in '26 and '28, too
I desperately dont want to see him on the ballot in 2028. I really hope Tim Walz comes back to the national scene.
"The oft-mentioned tyranny being opposed by gun owners is really just the sense that the wrong people are encroaching on the privileges and prerogatives of whiteness." From 2020:
I wonder, we've had two religious shools shot by trans people, and churches who tell trans people theyre going to hell for being trans... is there a connection?
Why?
I imagine that if churches didnt teach trans kids thay theyre going to hell anyway...
Deny it. If the press wont cover it... it doesnt happen.
Theyre not going to let us vote him out of office.
The only folks left in the press corps are the ones who dont question the lies. Makes you wonder what they get out of the job. The pay isnt *that* good.
What if we put an end to dark money instead of pointing out when one side or another uses it? Too idealistic.
Damn if this one isnt right on the money...
"The top story of the moment is the one story that our most influential newsrooms won’t touch: That the United State has become an authoritarian state." — Dan Froomkin @froomkin.bsky.social presswatchers.org/2025/08/we-h...
Nah. But shocking. People wanted to burn down government.
Damn. They're wearing armor and packing weapons in DC in August. If they weren't jackboots, Id feel sorry for them.
At least she tips well. I doubt Elon does.
What the fuck?
I stand by my statement that (1) Gavin is an asshole, and (2) sometimes you need an asshole on the team.
Dangerous in my town.
EVs rock, cheap, worry free...however, a multifuel diesel and vegetable oil car has a better chance if "mad max" happens
I like Walz for 2028.
Im okay with this, but Bill didnt move the convicted sex offender to work release
The only purpose of sending innocent men to CECOT was to terrify everyone with their power.
Ive seen more than a few 'covert approaches"
Understand what you're asking of them. Today, along with pay and rank reductions, hard labor, prison... they're looking at BCDs that will haunt their prospects of employment forever.
I thought this place was supposed to have taken steps to reduce the numbers of bots. Im seeing a lot follow me.
Cool cool cool, so... Trump by 2028?
When he does die, although we have a firm 'no politics' rule at work, I think I'm just smile alot, for no particular reason.
Fight back.
Most expensive law enforcement surge anywhere ever... gets a misdemeanor.
*This* preferential treatment ought to be bigger than "release the files" is.
Newsome is an asshole, but if the choice is Trump V Newsome, Im voting.
Uganda. Jesus. No more plans to prosecute, eh? How did they talk Uganda into taking an (alleged) MS13 member who is into human trafficking?
RIP Intel
That should not be a headline without recognizing that shes a convicted pedophile, convicted perjurer and at Trumps mercy.
Suit up and lead the way.
I lived in Chicago briefly, then spent a decade in and around DC. DC seemed pretty tame by comparison.
I think Chicago will be a bigger challenge than Fallujah
not to everybody.
Im not sure why you expected less. Did you think he was too moral to be a child rapist?
This has been very bad. Its getting even worse.
Even if crime is utterly obliterated, this was the most expensive way you could possibly do it.
They don't get irony here unless you use a special font.
And is giving preferential treatment to the convicted pedo sex offender.
What Paperwork are they requiring for these third party deportations, My kind friend?
Youre totally talking out your ass arent you? What kind of travel docs do you "line up" to deport a guy to the El Salvador torture prison?
No matter who is a shitty comms strategy over "vote for this awesome dude." (Sorry, America is too sexist for anything else right now.)
We won't win 2026 or 2028 on Trans rights. I suggest, humbly, that we try to quietly do what's right and focus on other issues as much as possible.
What on earth makes him thing Putin *respects* Trump? He *may* fear such a fickle and emotional man having control of the US nuclear forces... but that aint nearly respect.
If they're not getting hearings before deportation, Why the fuck do they need to detain them so long?
Too bad there isn't a serious third option.
We had no reckoning for rendition and Torture, which I consider Obamas biggest mistake. Im not hopeful we'll prosecute anybody.
He literally is giving preferential treatment to a incarcerated convicted pedo-sex offender, and we are *wondering* about the list?
Oops www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...
I was wondering who would do this after the government recommendations were written by a anti-vax activist. AAP is legit and has been doing science a lot longer than RFK, who doesn't do science, ever.
Working on the graphics, and fixing typos, but I like this one.
Yeah. But i bet a black man carrying rifle in DC gets hassled more than a white man.
I quit paramedic-ing almost 15 years ago. I can't say I miss it, but I guess a lot depends on what community you serve. My last gig was working for a giant evil corporation, so ymmv.
I guess the rednecks who swore they'd never come back because of rainbow shirts fucking meant it.
I bought a cheap (80) Canon laser printer from Amazon. The toner never goes bad like ink does when it dries out. Had to buy a scanner, but those high speed scanners are amazing.
Are they expecting shaped penetrator IEDs in DC? Fuck. Any HMMWV would be better in DC. Can you imagine an MRAP trying to navigate Dupont or the Navy Yard? I mean, without destroying cars and sidewalks. I used to run ambulance into DC, much smaller than an mrap.
Put the convicted pedo sexual abuser back in lockup, too?
But then we wouldn't be getting rid of so many brown people. Sheesh.
You might not. Lincoln ain't around.
Id buy the "distraction" argument if they were fighting... well... anything.
Show me fucking video. I see lots of people telling them to fuck off.
I know there's kind of a lot going on, but why aren't we screaming that Trump is giving his convicted pedo-sex offender friend and probable coconspirator preferential treatment? "Send her back to prison" would seem a better rallying point than "release the files"
Wtf?
My wife is so far Left that she won't use a Right turn signal. This does not look familiar to me.
Say what you will about our primary process, we'll never have a Trump-esque clown as our candidate.
That Gerrymander initiative seems like fighting
