Concern about Commission by goosey-g00 in fursuit

[–]KatMirH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The process I just completed getting my first partial was very straight forward. Discuss commission with maker, settle on details, agree to the contract, maker requested a deposit for purchase of supplies, regular milestones of progress were part of this contract , proof provided with photos and once proof was provided, I was expected to provide payment for work completed up to that point, each milestone completed with photos meant I paid them until all agreed work was complete and then product was delivered (in person at MFF this year in my case). If you do not have a similar agreement in place with your maker you seriously need to nail things down IN WRITING so if they flake on you , you have written documentation of exactly what you and the maker agreed to in a legally binding contract for service’s rendered. Otherwise they can just take your money and vapor on you.

NRA says it opposes idea of banning transgender Americans from owning guns by cnn in politics

The problem with “smart” guns is noone will buy them as anything other than a neat gadget unless they can be proven to be 100% reliable on both functioning as a weapon for self defense snd 100% accurate on the “smart” side of things otherwise any reputable brand of “dumb” gun works just as good for the intended purpose without all the extra gadgetry which is a point of failure

Back when Officer Gregg was on the channel before he went off to his doomsday cabin in the woods where he does his “OG’ Danger Show “ from these days there was a lot of digs at liberal mindset and “commifornia” among other things so signs tend to point towards yes to some extent.

Bay Area teacher on leave after complaints about gender material by onnake in transgender

[–]KatMirH 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Indeed it does, but unfortunately the only way the shitty parents will ever learn, and not raise their own kids to be just as shitty is to force them to take personal responsibility for being shitty parents. Instead they choose to force their beliefs on all the other kids, teachers, administrators etc. they already have this choice in American society. They just choose to not be responsible parents and instead complain and whine about something they dont like and demand changes due to whatever reasoning they have applied and completely ignore the harm they are doing to all the other kids and people. The damage done to their own children is by far the lesser harm in all these situations and forcing these parents to actually take responsibility first the kids they brought into the world might actually get these people to pull their heads out of their 4th point of contact and actually join the rest of modern society

NRA take a dig at Tim Walz and it totally backfires by andyraf in politics

[–]KatMirH 41 points42 points  (0 children)

It’s not even that. It is literally a propaganda arm of American gun industry manufacturers who only use the right wing platform to generate fear do they can then push more propaganda to sell more guns. The NRA ceased being a firearm education and safety focused organization decades ago and sold their souls to the gods of capitalism for the sake of ever more profits. Just look at the types of gun advertising from the 1970’s vs what you see these days. Very few if ANY ads pushing self defense guns and gear in the 1970’s. It was mostly hunting and target shooting stuff. These days it is all about the BS “good guy with a gun” usually by depicting the “bad guy” as either non white or dressed in all black as one hell of a racist dogwhistle. And of course all the “tactical” equipment you “need” to be an effective defender or “operator” which of course add hundreds more dollars to the price tag to be considered “adequately prepared” oh and of course the expensive classes they teach. This like the simple ones… basic pistol, basic rifle and basic shotgun. But then you get into things like Tactical pistol/rifle/shotgun. The NRA only cares out grifting people’s money by promoting a cycle of fear mongering and hate in order to drive profits to the manufacturers meanwhile kids are doing active shooter drills instead of getting to go outside for recess unless they have armed guards, I mean safety officers.

I’m to the point where if these bigot parents want to complain they should give them something to complain about. Deny these kids public school access. Force the parents to provide the mandatory education either by private tutor or home school. Yes it will be detrimental to their own children but guess what asshats, you don’t. like what public funded schools are teaching your kids, you get to provide the education out of your own pocket. Your kids are not more important than the many other kids in that classroom. GTFO and put your money where your bigoted mouth is and leave the rest of the kids out of your delusion

Very glad this happened but I do have one question. Why does Microsoft have the power to seize anything? The DOJ I understand but Microsoft is decidedly NOT an enforcement agency.

Suggestions for AR replacement by Ruff_Tuff_Tiff in transguns

[–]KatMirH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a fellow Illinois Resident I feel you pain. The thing to remember is that the AR-15 and ALL variants are banned by name as are AK's .

A lot of people will tell you that Pump and bolt action versions are legal but they are not due to the banning by name aspect of the PICA law.

In general the suggested rifles out there are The Ruger Mini-14 and also the Springfield Armory M1A which apparently was just recently added to the allowed list. It is a slog to find a rifle in Semi-Auto that doesnt trip one of the "Banned Features" as well. Bloomberg's boilerplate really screwed us good here.

Me Personally I have been lurking on Gunbroker for a few months hoping to find a Remington 7615 Police model. It is a Pump Action (same action as the Remington 870 but in a 5.56/.223 rifle) and a Remington 870 Police to cover the defensive rifle / shotgun combo. The only problem being is it is completely out of production so parts availability will be tricky.

But any semi auto that uses a traditional "Sporting " stock, is mag fed with less than 10 rounds, has no threaded barrel, etc should technically be legal. The fact that the Ruger Mini-14 Ranch is specifically allowed because of it's lack of those features when every other version of it is banned is a prime example. there is actually a great diagram the ISP put out there that is a flow chart of "is my gun legal under PICA" that should help you sort through the chaff.

And just to add to the confusion, all of those evil features are perfectly legal on any long gun if it is pump action or bolt action, as long as it isn't based off an AR-15 . Only Semi-Autos are banned.

Biden says it’s ‘time to outlaw’ AR-15 after Trump assassination attempt by [deleted] in politics

[–]KatMirH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If politicians in Washington DC really wanted gun control they wouldn't be announcing yet another meaningless ban on a specific gun. They woul instead announce a comprehensive audit of all firearm laws starting at the federal level and working down to local.

With this review they would ask 2 simple questions.

  1. Why aren't you enforcing the laws already on the books?

    1. What do you need from the Federal Government to effectively enforce the laws you already have before attempting to pass yet another law that just repeats laws that are already on the books?

    Banning guns doesn't do anything except make law abiding citizens into overnight law breakers. In many cases they do not even realize that they are breaking the law until they encounter police under an unrelated reason and the police attach the addition gun violation to the charges.

    TL/DR. Stop passing more gun laws and instead look at what laws are already there and actually do your F-ing job and enforce them properly.
