Can we get back on topic or at least some titties?
It may be too late for that, but even if not, what else really can be said that hasn’t already? At least until something moves forward in Congress.

What we know at this time:

Both provisions are currently still in the ridiculous BBB. We know they are likely still there to placate the public who are largely in favor of them.

There are huge AI invasions of privacy included, as if we really had any left at this point anyway.

Nothing will truly happen in the bill that will in any way actually impact you and I positively anyway. We are all of the wrong class to benefit from anything.

Did I miss anything?

Everybody gets their panties all wadded up when congress or the senate throws a temper tantrum and stays out of session. Those same people say "those GD politicians should be doing their jobs, at work and passing new laws".

The hell they should. We already have far too many laws and the last thing we need are more of the same/worse ones. Personally, I love it when they are out of session. No new bullshit laws get passed.

Agreed.
 
with the changes, it still has to go back to the House and there are 435 assholes there who can easily band together to screw us.

I called it months ago, adding the short act is a mistake because there are 4-5 squishes and “I’m a Real Conservative” types who will fuck it up in the House.

Very very likely that it will get scrapped and then a continuing resolution will be passed in its place. And those same NO votes will vote Yes on the resolution package.

I’d like to believe that we’re wrong about that, but…
 
Latest from the four boxes diner.



We shall see. I'm usually a bit skeptical of most of these YouTube pundits because they tend to paint a much rosier, "optimistic" picture of the situation, especially before the results actually happen. This, to pump up their own channels. Not that I'm pessimistic about these things. I'm just trying to be "realistic" about them.

Same. Four boxes usually doesn't put too much flare in his videos though. He's one of the better channels for this stuff.

I think I might go ahead and start sourcing parts for my Gordon carbine though. Would the AEM5-30 be close enough ? Not flgoing for clone correct, really just want the look.

Agreed. I actually like him. He's on the SCOTUS Bar, as it turns out. He's argued before them. He knows his stuff. I also like the "Washington Gun Law" guy, and I like Jared of Guns & Gadgets. I'm not so happy with the Langley Outdoors. He way "over optimizes" things. The jury is still out on the others.

You're way ahead of me, then. I just want to keep what I have. Maybe, I'll look at a couple of cans, we'll see. But again, until ERPOs go away, we're all still "at risk."

Four Boxes - I quit watching him, honestly he is too wordy and I lack patience. He might have 30 seconds of meat in a 12 minute video.
My father was a brilliant attorney - get your point across succinctly, clear, concise, i.e. not wordy. Disclaimer - I pay for YouTube Premium as I'm not watching commercials.

Long form content pays the bills on YouTube. That’s why you get so many videos in the 10+ min category. Gotta stretch that 30 seconds of meat to get that sweet sweet ad revenue.


(If you can, read the following in the voice and cadence of Rich Hy (Angry Cop)…)

“There’s something happening in the 2A space. And, now a word from this video’s sponsor. Right after a break for an ad that YouTube knows you’ll love. And, we’re back. According to one rando on tic tok, it is possible that something insignificant may or may not occur at some undetermined time in the future that may or may not affect your life in some un-defined way. But, we won’t know for several years because no court has picked up the issue. But, if one does, then here is one fever-dream that might (or might not) occur. So, stay tuned for more exciting and totally not nebulous and trivial hypothetical situations in the 2A space. And, don’t forget to smash that like button, subscribe, and hit the notification bell. And, leave a comment in the comments section, because, let’s be real, every interaction is just a bit more money in my pocket.”

They’re all pretty much the same and mostly suck. Except for that Armed Scholar fuck-wit. He’s the gigaChad of click bait bullshit. If sucking were a sport, he’d be the Intergalactic Champion.

Angry meme reviews aren't that bad. I like his characters especially private potato. Some posts here I imagine in his voice to make them sound smarter. Wish somebody would put together a supercut of him.

If you have premium, at least on phone, if you fast forward twenty seconds an option generally shows up to skip the ad section in the video. The Jump Ahead shown below.
