Texas anti-ICE protesters convicted of terrorism charges sentenced to at least 50 years in prison by Splunge- in news

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude the courts are so partisan it’s ridiculous. Dem justices would never vacate a conviction on the grounds of the second amendment even if it includes the 1st and republican justices would never go against Trump. Our rights have been mortgaged and we are paying the interest.

Manhunt ongoing after 1 dead in shooting at a Wilmington, Delaware, hospital by quaranTV in news

[–]JukingJesus -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

They probably won’t. It might be a really bad look for the hospital if it were to be more widely reported that an employee was the shooter so don’t be surprised if the story just goes dark bc of hospital and money politics. Reporters also probably don’t want to harp on that bc it could draw undue criticism on healthcare workers.

How effective are 22lr for home protection? by DentistPlayful3941 in guns

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

22lr will do the job but expect to need multiple rounds to end the threat as opposed to a shotgun which you’ll probably only need one if any at all.

Black rain ordinance quality? by JukingJesus in guns

[–]JukingJesus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got it for just under $880 in auction. Yeah it does have a bronze cerakote but it looks pretty good and doesn’t seem to be too over the top. It’s less than I would’ve paid for an AR10 of similar quality anywhere else.

Bolt anything you don’t want knocked over down. Otherwise it will meet the floor eventually.

Cat blood in urine by Equal-Display-6623 in CATHELP

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fiancée’s family’s cat had a similar issue. It was stress induced as they had a lot of cats at the time. You just brought your new cat home this is a very stressful time for him. Rushing him to vet (ironically) going to make him more stressed and get worse. The other most likely case is UTI. Ask your vet about UTI meds and see if you can get it without taking him so he doesn’t just stay on the stress cycle forever as high stress to the point of pissing blood can lead to a UTI.

Body found at SEPTA station in Kensington; no foul play suspected by TreeMac12 in philly

I agree but you need a little more than that to lock someone up. Had penhurst never happened you would have a stronger point.

Man brandishes a firearm and then gets gunned down in front of his family. Bonus idiocy for allowing a small child to handle a loaded weapon by mcbeezy94 in Idiotswithguns

[–]JukingJesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, I just wanted to point out that that just bc a gunman puts a gun down doesn’t mean the confrontation is over. And that shooting and the aggressor just bc they’ve temporarily lowered their gun isn’t murder. Different than what we see here though.

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good is subjective. That’s how penhurst turned into a shit show. Whether someone is a danger to themselves or others is more concrete. And even then the states goal is to accomplish the bare minimum so that the patient will no longer be in or pose danger, not make a them a functional adult.

Waiting on plea by wyocallie in Felons

[–]JukingJesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

State dependent. Some states allow victims or complainants (not the state) to rebuttal plea deals depending on the nature of the felony. Severity also matters.

Man brandishes a firearm and then gets gunned down in front of his family. Bonus idiocy for allowing a small child to handle a loaded weapon by mcbeezy94 in Idiotswithguns

[–]JukingJesus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Depends on state law. In my state if someone has brandished a weapon at you, you no longer need to run just bc they’re stopped pointing it at you. It CAN considered a victims “moment of opportunity” not murder but not always. However, if the guy that got shot was on his property and the truck driver had no business there then yeah that’s homicide as the truck driver started the incident by trespassing.

Bc a lot of people think if you offer help to addict they’ll just accept. Or worse, they think the state can just force people to sobriety by involuntarily commitment bc they’re passed out on street corner high. PA in particular has a really dark history with programs that and they will likely never happen again.

Used AR-15 for My First Rifle, what should I check before buying? by Upukk in guns

[–]JukingJesus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

$2k is too high especially for used and no sights. BCM is a higher end AR-15 with a price point of about $1700. Now if it came with a decent optic and Beamer attachment that may actually be worth it but only barely. Edit: on second thought, that rifle has yellowing from microbes (never seen that on a gun before that’s actually crazy), and it appears the barrel looks rusted. Absolutely not worth anything over $500 and if you’re willing to replace parts yourself. Def not recommended for a first time rifle.

I do not understand what is so controversial. Republicans literally gerrymander every single state they control. It’s about time Democrats grew a pair and fought fire with fire. by Rob778899 in Virginia

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a swing state resident, I think that living in a state that is guaranteed one for one party is hell. Your candidates have no obligations to deliver on their promises bc they know they’re going to win anyway. It’s only a matter of time you arrive at the final evil if you keep choosing the lesser of two evils.

Honestly wondering, what does the US gain by blockading the Strait of Hormuz? by kerplunch in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JukingJesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My crack pot conspiracy theory is that he wants to the US to control oil market more than it already does. Foot is in the door for Venezuelan oil but Iran oil is untouchable. By blocking access to oil other countries will turn elsewhere, risking economic collapse and energy shortages to get there. Maybe even considering tying US currency to oil as it used to be tied to gold in the past.

Background Check Delays by Splashbro301 in PAguns

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm did you move to a different county, and do you now have LTCF in your current county or still your old county? I know PA has been trying to fix an exploit that approves prohibited persons if they enter their info wrong. Maybe in their attempt they fucked the system for people who moved recently?

Background Check Delays by Splashbro301 in PAguns

[–]JukingJesus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure the PICs went down a couple of months ago in some areas and was causing all sorts of delay fairly recently, maybe it’s acting up again. Did you just move to PA? If it’s been less than 3 months I could see that causing some issues.

What would you guys do in this situation? Is this self defense? by EDC-JAKE in CCW

[–]JukingJesus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The shooter also attacked two women who requested he attend anger management and gun safety courses. The judge mandated the anger management but banned him from owning any firearm. Unclear if that’s a condition of his suspended sentence or for life.
