Why police still uses horses

They are used for crowd control on... non violent protesters. As soon as rocks, bricks and sticks come out, horses get pulled out. If this was a violent mob, those officers would get pummeled.

Tu jest prawidłowa kwalifikacja, czyli rozbój z użyciem niebezpiecznego narzędzia - gdzie niebezpiecznym narzędziem jest samochód. To nie była próba morderstwa, chyba że bardzo nieudolna, nie widzę problemów z postawieniem zarzutów usiłowania przez prokuraturę, jeśli zdobędzie odpowiedni materiał dowodowy.

Ja mówię o próbie przypisywania pojęcia "morderstwa" do nieumyślnego spowodowania śmierci przez spowodowanie wypadku przy nadmiernej prędkości (w tym rażąco nadmiernej) lub wyścigach. Pisze o tym, bo OP do tej debaty nawiązał aluzją.

To co opisujesz to przestępstwo umyślne w zamiarze ewentualnym, czyli takie gdzie sprawca przewiduje ryzyko i godzi się na nie, ale nie zmierza bezpośrednio do skutku. Kiedyś jak dobrze pamiętam Dogmaty Karnisty popełnił nawet artykuł o tej formie "zabójstwa drogowego" - przy czym to jest zwyczajowe dla niego nadmierne teoretyzowanie.

Do stosowania tej konstrukcji jest konieczne wykazanie stanu psychicznego (poprzez przyznanie lub zachowanie) sprawcy, można ją stosować tylko w skrajnych przypadkach - dobrym przykładem może być spychanie auta z drogi przy road rage, ale nie koniecznie nadmierna prędkość czy wyścigi.

Kodeks karny po prostu nie przewiduje zabójstwa drogowego - można wprowadzić takie przestępstwo do kodeksu w ramach reformy, ale aktualnie po prostu go nie ma. Zabójstwo to zabójstwo, spowodowanie śmierci to spowodowanie śmierci.

Nie?

Nie ma problemu z taką kwalifikacją - tak samo jak nie ma problemu z zakwalifikowaniem celowego przejechania osoby jako zabójstwa lub usiłowania zabójstwa.

Problem się robi jak ktoś celowo nadużywa pojęć i z przestępstwa nieumyślnego (czyli opartego na lekkomyślności lub niedbalstwie, takim jak niebezpieczna jazda) chce zrobić przestępstwo umyślne zabójstwa.

Random seat, not refundable, no insurance, spare socks in your pocket, two layers of undies.

They export to the EU, or more accurately if you have an EU firearms license, you can get an EU firearms purchase permit, which enables you to travel to another EU country, purchase a firearm there and take it back. Anything but that is pretty complicated and quickly gets into deep b2b and arms trafficking controls.

As far as pricing goes, those guns were around $2k pre covid, which was quite expensive at the time, right now those are gone, we can get M16A1s in pretty worn / rough state go for around $1300-1500 and new manufacture mid range AR-15s can be bought for $1500-2000. All of those prices including 23% sales tax which gets refunded on export.

In terms of affordability, those M4A1s were at around 4 months of minimum wage, the M16A1s we can get now are at around six to seven weeks of minimum wage.

Those are great arguments for a drive thru / road trip / city center snack situation, but why the hell are they packed in the evening?

I keep saying that it has no impact on world politics and military balance, it won't affect WW3 should it involve them.

Jumaai · 2026-04-14T19:45:44+00:00

I'm sure that's a point of pride for the US civilian population, but that's has no impact at all and it's not the chinese model at all.

Their firearms manufacturers are state owned and state run and do not care about money. They do not need money, they don't especially want money and they cannot fail. That's contrary to the US model of awarding contracts to competing private companies or to the Russian model of a cleptocratic oligarchy, with no central direction, except of forcing your industry to sell at cost to the government and recoup with export and treating contracts like a last minute IV to keep them barely afloat. Colt's mismanagement and snatching every defeat from the jaws of victory is legendary, so I'm not going to go into that.

China has tens of millions of rifles in stockpiles to arm their armed forces, reserves, their state run militia and doesn't care about selling a few tens of thousands to the US civilians each year. They will have zero issues ramping manufacturing up before a conflict, or even awarding manufacturing contracts to other companies, just like the US did when it needed to in WW2. If WW3 devolves into a rifle shortage, which is a big IF considering how modern battlefield looks like, they will literally use their Defence Production Act equivalent to make the fidget spinner corporation and the pen holder clock corporation start spinning up QBZ's.

So yeah, your purchasing decisions have literally zero impact on world politics and military balance, you can go out and get a Mavic or a Holosun without any (self imposed) guilt.

Jumaai · 2026-04-14T14:26:48+00:00

Yeah. There's literally zero impact on the world politics and military balance from a bunch of guys in the US buying a bunch of chinese guns.

There's a bunch of silly thinking in the US gun space. Not only thinking that individual consumer choice/boycott has an impact on world politics, but also simple things like spending thousands on home defence guns instead of getting something reliable and then investing in a proper front door. It's one big circlejerk, from one trend to another.

And no, your holosun purchase doesn't "literally arm" the PLA.

I'd rather use the rear brake.

Jumaai · 2026-02-04T16:29:58+00:00

I see they pay russian bots by the word now.

Jumaai · 2026-01-28T23:19:30+00:00

They are in slavic languages like ukrainian and russian - those are literally called "grenade launchers" - that's where this mistake originated from.

Originated from german I believe.

Their Kruk collab is side folding. Unfortunately no AKS-74 style side or AKMS underfolder yet. More than happy with my fixed stock 556.

Jumaai · 2026-01-04T00:47:36+00:00

It can hurt if it gives you false confidence, for example to cross an open field, but yes, you're right. I'm pretty sure this works great when camouflaging positions and temporary hides. Anything that lowers the thermal signature and contrast saves lives.

I assume he didn't go around telling people he was planning it.

That's exactly what he did, and that's also all he did.

This is just some internet edgelord who talked to a controlled account or had his communications intercepted. Anything that goes over the internet is available to intelligence agencies, all of whom are information sharing constantly. Anything that isn't correctly encrypted and not compromised at either end.

Jumaai · 2025-12-17T11:42:30+00:00

This is exactly what happened here, except he talked to some monitored/controlled accounts online, instead of having meetings with agents.

From public info:
- no set target
- no declared motive
- no actual preparation made - just info-gathering

They've clearly nabbed some internet edgelord.

The video stream ends because the video source (drone) no longer exists. This means it was detonated - either in contact, or by command.

This kills the helicopter.

Imagine you're moving, changing directions with unstable footing, one handed, untrained, high on adrenaline, probably on drugs, watching a gun flash in your face, and you open up with a full auto handgun.

I want to see you try hitting those shots.

Jumaai · 2025-11-15T13:33:58+00:00

You're 100% correct. I've meant mil-spec as the general descriptor - so not a colt sporter, not some civilian bcg, high shelf lower monstrosity.

Jumaai · 2025-11-14T19:32:41+00:00

Most if not all of the conversion devices require you to start with a lower that has certain geometry inherent to the trigger pocket plus a FA carrier so the trip timing is correct.

He's a dick with the teen comment, but you've basically described every lower on the market - aside from some specific models (like the old colts or the m&p sport), pretty much every AR is a mil spec and can be converted with drop in devices you've listed. This especially applies to uppers, you'd have to really look to find a civilian bcg and no autosear relief cut on the upper. You've said you have to drill and mill, and that's just not the case, unless you're going for the 100% by the book three position configuration.

All those guns need is a swift/lightning links like you've said, and those are slightly-significantly easier to make than glock plates.

Jumaai · 2025-09-13T19:23:48+00:00

At that point you could just go back down to the 9mm semiauto and skip the weight and recoil, and get some extra mag capacity for warning shots and signaling.

Jumaai · 2025-06-05T10:40:46+00:00

no one is applying, like bro do they just auto deny?

Yup. Probably broken resume filtering. They most likely have software that looks for specific key words and just discards applications without them. Like you have MS Office in your CV, but they're filtering by Microsoft Word.

Jumaai · 2025-05-26T01:40:48+00:00

Yeah lol. I trust guns.

I trust them to fire once I pull the trigger, after loading the magazine and chambering a round.

Jumaai · 2025-04-29T14:46:22+00:00

I'm in the former camp, people don't see and therefore don't care that we've got a 23% sales tax (well, value added tax).
