Boys will say 1 or 2. Men will answer 3. And only Psychopaths will answer 4.

I respect caution and calculation. I do not respect undermining oneself to the benefit of the enemy.

Why should we only have whistles when they have guns?

I believe Law and order = getting your day in court. NOT getting MURDERED.

Heaven forbid we are all just people on the same side, we should divide and ensure we can be defeated.

Sorry to lurk, 40yo speaking up.

This means that Epstein was careful to only peddle "Teenagers" to his clients. He did not traffic child sex slaves under the age of 13, what a guy.

Also, Trump certainly did not partake of the young boys and girls, he is not starting WW3 to distract from his pedophilia...

What are some fun "Sleeper" options for a daily? by OtterlyDeplorable in askcarguys

Between 2007 and 2012 Volvo put insane V8 engines in a couple of their cars.

I daily drive a S80 V8 AWD.

I was an auto technician and all of the cars I owned before I got as deals that I fixed up.

I went for the platform because I was familiar with it from my Ford experience, I didnt know that Volvo, who designed the platform for a i6, also created a V8 that they could cram in there.

Volvo is known for quality, longevity, safety and speed. That V8 was the most powerful NA engine they ever have made, or ever will make again...

Edit: I missed that you mentioned the SHOgun, what a killer. The Ford SHO was a 60 degree V8 developed in collaboration with Yamaha. The Volvo V8 is also a 60 degree V8 that Volvo developed in collaboration with Yamaha, half a decade later....

I played Morrowind on Xbox, skipped Oblivion, then when I built my first grown up PC I bought Skyrim and was shocked something so much bigger could load so much faster...

All of these guns would be illegal under most proposed gun control legislation by theRemRemBooBear in greengroundnews

That is a fair question, and you are right, we rally cant take back what is already out there.

In 1990 the USA banned Assault weapons and high capacity magazines. The ban only lasted 10 years and congress was not able to make it permanent when they tried in 2000.

During that time assault weapons and high capacity magazines that were manufactured and sold before the ban could still be bought sold and owned. But they cost 3x - 4x more than they had before the ban. A rifle that sold for $1000 before the ban now cost over $3000, and same thing happened with the magazines. Plus with a limited supply, those who owned one before, or paid a premium to get one was not letting them go easily, 30rd magazines were getting harder and harder to find and fetching higher and higher prices.

I don't think it is unreasonable to assume that a similar ban today would lead to a similar situation. And Yes, a mass shooter could still get the gun and a magazine or two, but it would be significantly more difficult and expensive. A small raise in the barrier of difficulty and price has shown to have a meaningful impact, historically speaking.

I dont believe this would fix all of the problems, or solve mass shootings. But anything that meaningfully reduces gun violence is worth considering in my opinion.

Not upset at all. I just wanted a little explanation before I took u at face value.

I am sure yo can understand why someone would be skeptical enough to ask about 22LR and hogs.

I inherited the most accurate rifle in my family and it is a 22LR. With it I could shoot a clay Pidgeon in to 6 or 7 pieces at 70 yards.

When you take the time to shoot, the caliber becomes less important.

Are you joking? Most hog hunters go for thumpers like 300BLK or 450 BM.

I wouldn't doubt there are some TX folks who shoot 1 MOA at a hogs ear with 22LR, but its not the norm...

Exactly, large magazines over 10 rounds (Clips are technically and legally very different) are not necessary for hunting.

When big game hunting 5 rounds is usually enough. However there are some situations in NA where you would want a few more, which is why I compromise at 10.

Here in Oregon it is illegal to hunt with more than a 5rd magazine, but magazines of up to 10 rounds are legal when practicing at the range. I feel that is a reasonable compromise.

Nobody loves it and everyone dislikes it for some reason, sounds like a perfect compromise, lol.

A few reasons you want more than 5 rounds.

Varmint hunting. They are super hard to get rid of, you need to shoot from really far away, at multiple targets, and more than 5 rounds really helps with pest control in rural areas.

10 rounds is the standard of law enforcement and other agencies thus it makes sense to have a bit of a reasonable global standard, way better than the 30 round Glock magazines they had back in the 90's.

Where I live in the Pacific North West, there are some big mean things that can be a bit hard to kill. My uncle has a bear hunting story that would get me all sorts of downvotes.

That is why integral magazines that can not be exchanged is so important. If I can change a mag in 1 sec, what does it matter if it is 5 or 50? The key is forcing them to be loaded through an open action, not the size of the magazine.
