    Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

    Yes, I'm absolutely saying that. Try it. People can panic and asphyxiate from stress with nobody touching them, it happens every day.

    Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

    If I had been Derrick Chauvin's attorney, I would have made my opening arguments in the position Floyd was in with a 300lb man kneeling across my neck the way he was. If it hadn't been a kangaroo court trial with a predetermined outcome and a defense team with a mission to fail in their defense...

    Not in that position. It's way too easy to try it. If you haven't laid on the floor and let someone do it to you, you just don't understand. Try it. Try it and then come back and comment about it.

    I've been training jiu jitsu since about 2001. Competed in mma and grappling competitions for decades. I'd say for the purpose of this conversation, I'm an expert on this matter. It is absolutely 100% impossible to interfere with someone's ability to breathe in the position the stupid corpse was...

    Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

    Yep, sounds like you've looked at these numbers too. Women should not be allowed to raise children by themselves. The idea that "maternal instincts" are a superpower is a fucking tragedy. The idea that women are able to use their "single mother" status as a badge of honor, or a superhero cape is...

    Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

    A quick look at the data says that black kids are about 67% likely to be raised in a single parent household, but that doesn't really answer the question, because I'd be willing to bet that very few of the remaining 33% who do have two parents are allowed to go down town and engage in that kind...

    You're sharper than this. Did you get hammered last night? It was the 4th of July. It happens to the best of us. He's saying we didn't get "the win"..

    You're correct, but we got way off into the weeds discussing the principles of economics in a theoretical scenario that we were denied by the senate. It's all mental masturbation. Of course removal from the NFA is the goal. My original post said so, clearly. What I said was that nobody would...

    Well, this entire conversation has been speculation based on an event that didn't happen. I'm using the principles of economics to describe this non-existent future, and you're using your crystal ball or whatever. We won't be able to see who is correct because it didn't pass, and it won't pass...

    Indianapolis police chief tells it like it is.

    The problem is that they put cops in prison for doing their jobs. This problem was created by the acab crowd. Derrick Chauvin is an innocent man. He's a political prisoner. People want the trash taken out, but they expect the people who do it to be absolutely perfect. They are expected to spend...

    During the highest burst of inflation in world history? I'll bet the prices followed the inflation step for step. The tax assessment on my home increased 115% in the same time frame. Ribeye went from $5.99/ lb to $16.99/lb. Of course they didn't get cheaper.

    Of course it is. That chief danced around it every way he could, but there was an N bomb on the tip of his tongue the entire press conference.

    Forget the paperwork people, but despite what you think, finding competent people to fill out that paperwork perfectly in 2025 is probably almost impossible. Most people can't tie their shoes. The economy of scale I'm talking about is what you're incorrectly describing. The more of an item you...

    Which will decrease costs. There is a point of diminishing return on economy of scale, but none of the manufacturers are anywhere near it currently. Thats basic economics.

    I don't necessarily disagree with you, but it's all speculation. Of course that's rarely how anything works in economics. If the volume of sales increase, and the market demand increases, and the manufacturer cost decreases (they won't need a team of experts to do the atf applications), then the...

    Ok........ so, the point was that nobody gives a shit about the cost we are paying for suppressors currently. We care about the NFA restrictions. If you think folks who are building them now wouldn't lower their costs exponentially by eliminating all of the current paperwork and simply paying...

    They are currently doing the entire application process to the ATF, mountains of paperwork that has to be absolutely perfect. They then deal with deliveries, (an additional 4473). I can imagine they could handle the burden of sending the IRS $200 for each unit sold. Doesn't sound like a...

    What are you talking about? Please take a moment to look into pittman/Robertson and dingle/Johnson. You don't seem to be aware that this model has been in existence for longer than you've been alive and you've paid it on every box of ammo, firearm and fishing pole you've ever bought.

    I feel like you are struggling with the reading comprehension portion of this conversation, so I'll try to use smaller words: If Jim (random made up name) buys a suppressor in March of 2025, and he pays $800 for the suppressor, and $200 for the tax stamp,how much has Jim paid? Answer: $1,000...
