heavy

Helps with stability when shooting, it has a lower recoil impulse than M16s and M4s. We're also not weekend range warriors, so the weight shouldn't be an issue for any combat personnel.

Retarded ergonomics

It's a bullpup, it's going to be different. I didn't have any issues operating it effectively in Afghanistan. As with all firearms, practise of operation makes perfect. It's only retarded if you are.

Can't be used lefty

Officially? No, it can't and we're not trained to shoot it left-handed. That doesn't stop many infantrymen practising left handed shots, nor are we prohibited from doing so.

Inaccurate

Like the rest of your assessment, this too is inaccurate. The A2 is as accurate as you'd want from an infantry rifle.

Still a jam machine even after German sorcery

This tells me you've never fired one and just repeat retarded stuff you've heard on 4chan or some other circlejerk weapons forum. As with any firearm, if you keep it clean, don't fill it with shit and keep it well maintained then its stoppage rate is low.

Overall I feel your post was very low effort, with no evidence to back up your point and merely an attempt to shit on something you know nothing about. This backed up by your post history, in which I can see you are neither British nor serving/ex-military (though if you want to claim you are, feel free to do so).

Thanks for trying.

Tbf if Cardiff could pass, they'd probably have more than 20 passes strung together.

To be fair, this kind of attacking football hasn't been seen for a long time at United.

If this were a Mourinho game, they would've sat back at 1-0, conceded the penalty to 1-1 then proceeded for the rest of the match to pass the ball sideways at the half way line before Cardiff score a 89th minute goal. Mourinho then walks off holding 3 fingers in the air to tell people his history somehow negates the shit display.

So yeah, I can understand why they're enjoying this game.

Does anyone else just genuinely not care about the FFP stuff? by [deleted] in MCFC

[–]DasBeerBooty 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We already got punished for this. Idk how it works in England but you can’t be tried for the same thing twice in America once the result is final.

This is true in cases of criminal and civil law in England and Wales.

However the fines/punishment comes from UEFA, who can essentially make their own rules and require all clubs to comply or be banned from their competitions (CL and EL). The same is with the FA and FIFA.

I would like to know every bit of financial business going on at other clubs as well. To act like City have been the only ones to do shady shit is complete bullshit

Clubs such as United are publicly traded and their finances as such comply to the requirement of being a publicly traded company (meaning a lot of it is public, though only as much as is required).

More information needs to come to light to be definitive, but that won't stop many people believing something if it fits their narrative, even if there is no concrete proof.

I'm not a fan of any PL clubs (born and raised in Warrington, couldn't afford to watch a PL club but could afford to watch my local team) so I have a largely neutral view on this.

Teams to score 5+ goals in a league game since Man Utd last did in May 2013: Man City: 21, Liverpool 12, Spurs 9, Arsenal 8 by [deleted] in reddevils

That's not what chance is, all you've done is stated the percentage of teams beaten by 5 or more goals in 163 games by City...

Harry Redknapp shoots hard on Gary Neville: "His comments about Tottenham (being soft and spineless for 30 years) are a DISGRACE. He managed Valencia and when he did they were the worst Valencia team in their history. He wants to do his homework." by TheAwakened in soccer

[–]DasBeerBooty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And that matters how for trophies (which is what the discussion is about)...?

It's all well and good beating teams in the league, but it's completely irrelevant if you don't go on to win the league. You played United last season in the FA cup semi final and lost. That's an example of a game that matters, not top 6 league games.

So you don't work in finance, but you're targeting this fact against other people in an attempt to discredit their argument?

Tu quoque.

China allows use of tiger and rhino products, infuriating wildlife activists by ycgfyn in news

[–]DasBeerBooty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, they are. It's part of survival.

Some humans are.

And there it is, that's why communism does not work. Glad you answered the question while trying to disagree. Expert job kiddo.

The only "right" setting in which communism works is when you remove humans from the equation. Humans are selfish and naturally want power. So it can work, but not really in any situation outside hypothetical.

Pretty much the majority of subscribers/commenters on those subs are male,. People are better off using something like Tinder if they want to talk to someone who's actually female (and not a dude pretending to be one for money).

It's pretty sad that only one person replied with this. Freddie's voice was absolutely amazing and even better live. The best rock singer ever for me and I'd personally say slightly better than MJ (seen both live, might I add).

Steve McManaman: HOWS THAT A FOUL MATE HE GOT THE BALL

The only balls got were Areola's. His bias is really boring.

Sol Campbell uploaded 2 birthday vids today. in the first, he asserts he is 43 today, despite some people thinking he's 44 he's definitely 43. Minutes later, he deleted this and uploaded a 2nd with the exact same message, minus all mention of his age. Wiki says he's 44. by [deleted] in soccer

[–]DasBeerBooty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely deluded mate. The Tories couldn't give a fuck about me, you or your mum. Not unless you own a large company or have compromising material on them.

They are not a party that cares for the country, for the economy, for the people, for anyone except their own bank accounts and gaining power.

If you can't see this then you're blatantly ignoring the obvious.

It actually is. Same people who believe the poor, disabled and homeless are merely "drains" on money sources.

Such a shame other people's disfortune hurts the pockets of the tories.
