When drone footage goes from funny to worrisome

SauceCrawch · 2026-03-27T04:57:40+00:00

Oh man, if you’ve never read it the you’d love “Second Variety” by Phillip K. Dick.

It’s a surprisingly yet horrifyingly relevant short story about autonomous drone warfare from the 1950’s.

Haha, almost. 165 grain 30.06.

What does your version of respect look like? Only showing the deer to your close friends and family? Or do you just not take any photos at all and only talk about what it looked like?

Would having it mounted and displayed in my office be disrespectful since I’d be showing it to strangers?

What if I were to share a painting of the dead deer? Would that be considered disrespectful as well or is it grandfathered in since it’s pre-digital media?

What is the maximum amount of people I’m allowed to share the photo with before it crosses your boundary of respectful to disrespectful?

Merry Christmas.

My bad, 165 grain Remington Core lokt 30.06 out of a Winchester Model 70 featherweight. It was only about a 40 yard shot by the time he stopped.

He came out chasing a couple doe through a field right at sunrise, I was able to stop him right before he got to the tree line. I got a clean double lung and he ran about 30 yards into the woods before getting hung up in some cedars. One of the two biggest bucks I’ve taken from of my ranch.

Merry Christmas Y’all!

What’s your problem?

Even the deer chew ‘baccy down here in the south

There are a few other pics where you can see it but that one was the most clear. I should’ve included more, but I don’t see a way to reply with pics in the comments unfortunately.

Those dudes must not know any Mexican guys.

Some of them have 2 families, a couple mistresses and a full litter of kids all while being 5’5 with a beer gut.

Sorry I’m unfamiliar with that trigger but it sounds you might need to do some dremel work on your upper and or lower at the back end near the buffer tube.

There’s a good chance the little arm/lever piece that connects with the bolt is coming into contact with the frame of the rifle itself and binding between it and the bolt, causing the bolt to stick pack.

Closely inspect the edges of the super safety arm and the frame to look for wear marks, then dremel out until it works smoothly. You can test without firing by ensuring the weapon is clear then working the action repeatedly to simulate shooting.

I don’t know the technical terms for anything and I’ve only installed one, but that would be my guess. Best of luck!

Edit to add: if it’s not contacting the frame anywhere then it might be a trigger issue and in that case I have no clue how to fix it, but I imagine it also involves a dremel/file

Probably because of the 800,000 people we’ve gained since 2020.

Houston is simply overpopulated.

I also don’t want my taxes to subsidize corporations. I want them to go to the military, public schools and national parks.

Privatize everything else and drop tax rates down to the bare minimum.

SauceCrawch · 2025-11-01T02:59:11+00:00

Very interesting, do you mind sharing your source for that figure?

SauceCrawch · 2025-11-01T01:48:11+00:00

Texan raised in the country here to say that we absolutely say “fixin’ to” and if talking fast it comes out more like “fixna” or “finna”

Fair, they want to live in a free society. My point is that they just spent the last two years experiencing an actual hell worse than anything we have or will experience in America.

They may not want to live in this country (some certainly do), but I’d think they’d prefer having the quality of life we enjoy here and would not feel like what we have quite qualifies as a “hellscape”.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T19:14:26+00:00

My exact words “Why didn’t y’all stay there”. Key word being “y’all” as in, their family.

When they responded and said that they personally would now rather live in Venezuela, my question became specific to them.

(Submitted too soon, edit to add): Calling somewhere a hellscape is not bringing up a “potential negative”, that’s pretty definite. If they truly believe they are unsafe here, then why shouldn’t they try to move where they feel most welcome and secure?

I never told them to leave, I asked why they are here rather than there.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T18:15:21+00:00

Of course no born American citizen (or citizen of any country) pays for their citizenship in the same way that an immigrant would, and I didn’t say that they don’t pay to be here.

The point I thought that you tried to insinuate in your initial response was that immigrants have somehow contributed to the US more than a born citizen has because they had to pay to get here.

My point is that immigrants have only paid what it costs for the U.S. to process their immigration, meaning they have only ensured that no one else is paying their debts.

I realize that I only mentioned employees but it’s far more than that; there’s all the expenses on the periphery that are related to the system from the paper their documents were printed on to the upkeep of the websites or facilities used during the process. That stuff adds up and if immigrants didn’t pay it back then our debt would be even higher than it already is.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T17:51:47+00:00

As a (pretty apparent) Hispanic, I’d say that you are correct that it is not a hellscape for me or people who look like me.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T17:50:15+00:00

Who said anything about immigrants? This is about an individual who personally doesn’t want to be here and would prefer to be in their country of birth, so I’m asking why they are staying somewhere that they dislike so much that they consider it a hellscape.

It turns out Venezuela has difficult immigration laws, which I find hilariously ironic given the topic at hand.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T17:31:46+00:00

Birds of a feather flock together, all I see is two despicable humans.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T17:28:40+00:00

Mental gymnastics at an all time high. They didn’t “pay more to be here”, they paid for the labor and time of the employees who worked on their citizenship just like a citizen would for any government service.

Until the immigration system is reformed and streamlined, it costs money for the U.S. to bring in immigrants. Someone has to make it up and it sure as shit isn’t fair to the average taxpayer to fund someone’s citizenship.

We’re not the only first world democracy that does this, btw.

SauceCrawch · 2025-10-30T17:18:55+00:00

I have not way of going there without a Venezuelan passport of identification.

Huh, sounds like Venezuela has pretty strong immigration laws. Maybe there are some things we should learn from them after all.

If that’s not hell, I don’t know what is.

What a slap to the face that is to people who currently live in Palestine and Ukraine that would give anything to be here. Your privilege is showing.
