It's hard to imagine somebody more deserving of being cast aside and marginalized than anti-semitic white nationalists who literally cheer on Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
Somebody who engages pedophile apologism would be high up there too. Who was it that convinced Greene to speak at AFPAC?
Here's something to remember: if you can be filmed without realizing it, you can be shot without realizing it. There are so many videos of Russian soldiers and columns just roaming around out in the open.
That's probably why we keep seeing videos of small convoys cruising around Ukrainian cities and then seeing them destroyed a few hours later. I'm no military expert so take this with a grain of salt, but this whole operation seems extremely incompetent.
The most recent assault on Kharkiv speaks to this. It's hard to know for sure what exactly happened there. But videos seem to indicate the Russians sent a small unsupported convoy into the city.
I went to the NRA's Great American Outdoor Show and talked to some members about the corruption allegations against the group's leadership. Here's what they had to say: thereload.com/members-expres…
In covering the NRA the last several years I've been able to talk with its board members, pr reps, lawyers, and critics. But the cancelation of their major gathers has made it more difficult to speak with regular members. That changed over the weekend. thereload.com/members-expres…
Some attendees, like Tony Colgan, said they were up to date in the corruption allegations against NRA leadership and it kept them from renewing their memberships. thereload.com/members-expres…
He should consider siege weapons instead, though. A trebuchet or ballista firing pillows into Ottawa would be even more fun to watch.
Ok. Ottawa is further from the border than any siege weapon is really capable of getting an object. But I've thought about this and the WWI Paris Gun is an option. Ottawa is about 70 miles from Waddington, New York. The Paris Gun's range is about 81 miles.
This tweet goes to the idea many gun-control advocates are more concerned about regulating aesthetics than any else. This is a semi-automatic 22lr rifle. It is designed to look like an AR-15, but it's functionally the same as a Ruger 10/22 or any number of other 22lr rifles.
Whatever you think of the tounge-in-cheek marketing approach here, this certainly isn't a "weapon of war" by any standard. 22lr is a small round commonly used fwhen training kids. The objection here is to how the rifle looks rather than any connection it has to actual gun crime.
Here is the JR-15 next to the Ruger 10/22. They look different, but they are both magazine-fed semi-auto 22lr rifles. The main difference in function is the JR-15 has an integrated safety lock to prevent unauthorized use.
