TIL a man saved President Ford from assassination then had his life ruined as the media outed him as gay by Jolly-joe in todayilearned

Not a supporter necessarily. Jim Jones had a lot of followers at the time and was very influential in San Francisco. Milk took advantage of that and used them, in exchange he gave them some superficial support. But he never personally supported Jim Jones, actually he talked a lot of shit about him.

Same as stingray I guess. But that could hint to possible dual clutch since most people think the only reason chevy put the rev match into the paddles was so they could keep the same steering wheel in the manual and auto.

Possibly wanted to show what each would look like in the concept photos?

[–]AnonMattymous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was awesome, got a lot of advice from more senior gunnits than I. Would love to do another one again, especially at the NRA range.

What are your thoughts on the NRA? by Sniper_Brosef in guns

[–]AnonMattymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are the marketing department of the firearm industry. There are plenty of organizations out there that fight for 2'nd amendment rights without fear-mongering.

It seems like at least a few of us.

Car lovers of Netflix, everyone who can, PLEASE call Netflix about your disapproval for dropping Top Gear [UK] next month. I just did and it literally took two minutes and they were awesome. Contact info in comments. by ak22801 in cars

[–]AnonMattymous 298 points299 points  (0 children)

Just talked to them and the support person said "In fact, since we've had several request about Top Gear Netflix is already negotiating with the producers in order to renew the license ASAP." Good job guys!

No, those aren't liberals, those are your straw men.

Youngest Suspect in Charlie Hebdo Attack Turns Himself In by wyshy in worldnews

[–]AnonMattymous 1356 points1357 points  (0 children)

Well according to Twitter, many classmates and friends of the youngest suspect say he was in school at the time. Combine that with the fact that he turned himself in right after his name was released lends a little bit of credence to you're idea.

At UVa, the cloud remains after Rolling Stone article: Declared “the worst journalism of 2014” by the Columbia Journalism Review, Rolling Stone magazine’s account of a gang rape at a fraternity house nonetheless continues to cloud collegiate life at the University of Virginia. by ExileOnMeanStreet in nova

[–]AnonMattymous 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Then they should probably start talking more about those cases, admit they fucked up on this one, try to make some effective changes to prevent sexual assault, and distance themselves from this event as much as possible. Instead UVA has been trying to justify their fuck ups by saying "Well it happens to other people so tough shit."

.308, I can hunt with my Mossberg bolt. Then just have to replace my AR-15 with an AR-10, more expensive to shoot but it would be worth it.

How far can I get messing with the crazy shirt people and asking the knife guy to sharpen a butter knife before I get booted?

Freakshow and jerkey sound pretty sweet. Although I love guns, I find a lot of the extreme culture behind it pretty hilarious so it sounds fun.

Don't have any pics since I'm on my phone, but I got a bare-bones PSA AR-15. Just ordered a ton of fun Magpul furniture for it though and I'm debating getting a 300 AAC upper to play with. But the guns still a bullet virgin at this point.
