If you’re in need of a vacation, we got plenty of ammo down in Texas. Come get some! It’s expensive though. $40 for Remington green and white box .38+p?! Guess that’s the going rate for “no questions asked, no records kept”.

I don’t, but I ran into a lot of belted brass where I was in Texas, particularly .375 H+H and .300 win mag. Range brass is fun to look at. Brass for fat magnums, long magnums, even 54r is very distinctive and really stands out. Hard to tell why. East Texas isn’t wealthy (read: not a place which...

This could be entirely BS thinking, but I wonder if Bukele’s breaking the back of MS13 in El Salvador has created a bit of an underground power vacuum. The puzzle pieces fit, I just don’t have enough info to infer this as fact. Take it as speculation.

That’s an interesting one. I’ll have to check back, but I recall that “basic” illegal immigration is handled as a civil rather than criminal matter, so legally even if we assumed that an illegal were granted all the BOR protections, getting busted for immigration status would not automatically...

Eh? Advertising? No, I’ve just been more in touch with a community most folks aren’t. Not sure how that equates to mentally ill, which was my original point w/r/t trans kids.

While the pedo angle smacks of some wacko demagoguery, I don’t believe that irreversible or potentially irreversible treatments should be made available in this way. I might be more friendly to this but for the fact that trans identification seems to be almost kind of a fad and a poor diagnosis...

Sure, if it’s that specialized. I wouldn’t do it for a “one and done” rifle, but if it’s one for a specific purpose, why the hell not?

That’s a fake crime, as far as the guns go. Get on some juries and exercise jury nullification. Am I counting right, they managed 24 counts for four guns and five people?! Seriously?!?!???? Even if I do 4 times 5, that’s 20, so there’s a lot of overcharging here. The charges make the guns...

Well, a bit of a different angle, but I’m picking up what you’re putting down. Salt of the earth folks, it sounds like you appreciate that they feel grounded vs opining about first world problems. I agree.

Maybe it’s because I’ve lived in border states (California and Texas) my whole life, but I’ve lived and been around a lot of Latin communities. The notion that it’s a bunch of trashy bumbling hillbillyesque ne’er-do-wells isn’t really truth. Yeah, I’d like to see these folks vetted better who...

Oh the bill of rights is a core interest of mine politically, I just don’t tend to translate it in a way which makes adherents to the two old parties all that happy. Which is why pizza is easier :D

It’s a dumb idea. I don’t think we need to prognosticate communism and famine.

I’ll take a full auto, as long as it’s closed-bolt and isn’t a terrible semi-auto.

I’d rather talk about pizza than the politics. My (outside of the mainstream) politics aren’t popular. Pizza, however, is very popular.

Got my last deep dish passing through ChiTown on the way to Texas a bit back. I do love me some Chicago deep dish.
