TC would probably charge me with careless and reckless.

Again.

[Slick Goodlin]

No, thanks. I don’t know who the new ownership is friends with but I suspect anything with the Stars and Stripes probably isn’t super welcome.

[Scudrunner]

So if the Taliban leaders are in the presidential palace.




I guess I’m just old fashioned

Moment of Irony (try to stay with me, this is pretty complicated):

The Democrats just gave a shit-ton of really dangerous weapons to foreign terrorists that hate us and want to kill us ....



Then Grandpa Badfinger tell us they're going to seize our AR-15's from the tax-paying citizens, and screw the 2nd Amendment.

The majority of gun deaths in the US are from suicide.

"For every time a gun in the home was used in a self-defense or legally justifiable shooting, there were four unintentional shootings, seven criminal assaults or homicides, and 11 attempted or completed suicides."

[Colonel]

Are you concerned that the terrorists might commit suicide using the seized armament?

Meanwhile, back here:

More than 38,000 people die every year in crashes on U.S. roadways.

That's 38,000 / 365 = over 100 people die in car crashes every day in the USA, and
I still see my neighbors getting into their cars every morning.

Have you gotten rid of your car yet?

[Colonel]

I'm just happy there are no more "mean tweets". After all, that's what's important, right?
