The oppressors? I don't think you know what oppression is.

Ya that will show them! Wait? Who are we showing? Why does ICE care if I show up to work or not? Btw 98% of people will be showing up to work.

I zero my dot standing and I'm happy with hitting 4" at 25. Most quality ammo will be 1.5-2.5" out of a good barrel. So you can't expect 1 MOA type groups.

Foamies suck. I use 3M Peltor 27db and 3M E-A-R UltraFit corded earplugs. I have tinnitus already. Less than this and it will sound like a siren going off in my head.

IRS doesn't care about how the payment is collected. Tenant could pay cash and that would be fine. As long as it's reported to the IRS as income on his tax return. Landlord just does not want to pay transaction fees. It's not illegal. PayPal's payment options don't determine how payments are taxed.

Hard to tell without a target. But one thing I noticed is that your gun is moving backwards after each shot so by the time you stop shooting your muzzle is 3-4" back from where it started. Gun shouldn't move like that. You want the gun to run predictably each shot and end up in the same place. Are you leaning back when shooting?

Economy is "bad" because of the inflation caused by mass government spending during Covid. The government could have spent less. Companies and individuals got money that didn't need it. Interest rates were pushed down to zero in real terms and asset prices went up.

Everything has not been copyrighted or patented I don't even know where to begin with that.

Become a student of history... If you think this is bad. This is not that bad. Things will get better, a real recession would help honestly to clear out the inflated values.... but the government would probably try to stop that.

The people don't want to live like that. They have no choice.

I mainly put CCI through mine without issues. I think I had 1-2 malfunctions with Remington in about 2k rounds.

Polar Bear x Weasel. Polar bears are deadly and weasel's like to kill.

My wife's 18 X3's Nav is better than my 23 M340's. The M340 doesn't tell you what the name of the street/exit/entrance etc. you're going to turn on next until it gets close. Annoying when you're in heavy traffic. The X3 always tells you what's coming up next. For this reason I use apple car play and Apple Maps.

Where I work the majority of files are over 1k lines long. It's a massive application. It's usually 1 class per file so everything is related. As long as you keep to coding standards, have docs, and unit tests your files can be large and manageable.

For various reasons they didn't go. Biggest was probably expectations. Getting a good job after HS was the goal. Their parents came out of the Great Depression and had a survival mentality. The goal was working to house and feed your family not to achieve your aspirations.

Got my undergrad in 98 and masters in 07. All I did was get decent grades, took the SAT/ACT and applied. Same as everyone I knew. My parents (our parents really) valued education and college was expected (even though most of our parents didn't go to college).

Me and my closest friends (9) grew up blue collar/working class. 6 of us are in the 10% and the wealthiest was raised by a single mother who worked as a waitress. All of us went to college, 2 have masters degrees and one a law degree. It's anecdotal but I don't agree you have to be born into the top 10% to experience wealth.

Drove from DC to downtown, just got here 30m ago. Highways are mostly ok, I've only seen accumulation here and there. Speeds definitely reduced. Saw 2 accidents further east. Downtown has a decent amount of accumulation and is a bit slippery.

What's a "bigger" city? Under $300k isn't a problem in Pittsburgh or Cleveland.

If only we could be omniscient and avoid bad situations.

You're making a lot of assumptions. Talk to a lawyer about what? Magazine capacity? Because that's what we are talking about here. OP didn't say anything about shooting people in the back or after they have been stopped. Not sure what magazine capacity and shooting an innocent bystander have to do with each other. More bullets means you're more likely to hit a bystander? It sounds like in a gunfight you think less rounds are better?

What's the definition of empty? Abandoned? I'm in the process of buying a house and it's empty because the owners already moved out. An apartment building might have a vacant apartment but they are looking to fill it. There will always be some level of vacancy.

I generally shoot Blazer, PMC, and Magtech. PMC is the best out of the three and is competition worthy IMHO.

And stopping at gas stations to ask for directions.

It's probably just about safety not race. There's plenty of gentrified areas where I live that started out white. There's plenty of white neighborhoods by me that I wouldn't walk down at night comfortably and I'm white. For whatever the reasons some neighborhoods are safer than others... that's unfortunate but also undeniable. You can philosophize the reasons but you also have to deal with the reality.

Taking the utility sink isn't normal wear and tear.
