    I think the Republican form of government is able to change and adapt (often not for the good) if it is based on the rule of law, and majority rule with minority rights. That is not to say that key constitutional checks on power haven't been removed by the very progressives pushing for central...

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Has the Bloom Come Off Early Pythons

    I heard, don't know for sure, that part of the run on Pythons was that in some video game the most powerful pistol was a "Python" that would kill your enemy in a single shot, unlike all the other pistols in the game, and suddenly every gamer wanted one.

    Our Prosperity is Killing Us. - Better explained than I could

    Honestly, it boggles the mind to think about in how many Sci Fi books and films AI is banned because of some horrible war against machines, or the whole premise is back to man vs machine. Just through the literature you can see how massive of a shift it is. Asimov, Gibson, Bradbury, etc. take...

    I probably never tell the same story twice the exact same way. Best I can hope for at this point is that it rhymes...

    Well, it's long past time to clean that shithole up

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook_County,_Illinois Cook County is MASSIVE and largely suburban/rural. It basically goes from North of Joliette most of the way to the Wisconsin border, and from Indiana all the way out to Bartlett in the sticks. Crime statistics are calculated by County, which...

    That's absolutely true. All the transgender stuff, and attempts to normalize sexual deviant stuff going on in the Weimar Republic directly led to the German people being pissed off and facilitated their embrace of Nazism and the rise of Hitler. It was the same woke shit going on today, but...

    CHINA WAR INEVITABLE...SOONER THAN LATER

    It's really bad when someone who endorses and believes in the communist/anti-American screeds of Noam Chomsky finds common cause with anyone who considers themselves "conservative" or a "patriotic American". Something is definitely rotten in Denmark.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Has the Bloom Come Off Early Pythons

    The new ones are a pale visage of the originals. I sold a LNIB, bright, stainless for $4K to build a precision rifle, and it's one of only three guns I've ever sold. I think I sold at the height of the market. I have no regrets. I actually shoot the rifle. That said... I will not be...
