I highly encourage ringing the bell at our gate and smile at the camera.

Claymores are awesome, never got to one in the bode, the max I had the delight of using was an M-205, that was a fun day. I keep an axe under the seat of my car, what can I say, the viking blood still runs strong in me. Bows are however fine weapons and are definitely a great and challenging weapon to hunt with. Any experience with a longbow?

“I am not a racist person. I support the BLM movement,” Rittenhouse continued. “I support peacefully demonstrating.”

See. I told HB.... It wouldn't take long. The US crazies always deliver.

A new thread is in order. Terrorism? Racism? Woke activist? BLM? Let's get a poll going. But first we need all his social media information...

It doesn't matter what you are blathering on about.

The simple fact is this spotty no-mates teenager thought getting a gun and going and pretending to be hard would ingratiate him to his proud boy heroes.

Actually, it probably did.

So what is he eddie?

Some kind of Rambo-style superhero?

First time I ever met my father in law he was cleaning his gun. Haven't seen it in the 10years since

Actually yes. I took it up with my daughter when she was in school and joined an archery team. Was quite fun and rather relaxing. I was pretty descent at 50 yds. My crossbow is far more accurate but only to 40 but a lot more speed and the broadheads are very deadly. I used it for Turkey Hunting.

I would say the best weapon I have owned is a LRSR 50 Cal. My uncle and I went halfs on it 20 years ago. The accuracy and muzzle velocity are simple amazing. You let out a breath and squeeze the trigger and by the time you have blinked you hit the target 600 yds away.

He is just another guy that shot some people and got acquitted by a jury of his peers HB. I do not understand why you struggle to understand this. The media has this all whipped up in a frenzy which has got people all over spun up and it's all silly.

It being America, you're right.

I suppose we should be grateful it wasn't another bunch of schoolkids.

Let's be realistic HB. The US has 330 million people from basically all over the globe. We have people that love the country and others that hate everything it stands for. Years back before Fagbook, Instashit, Twatter, Fox etc people had boundaries. Parents could parent. Now with all that social media crap and parents handcuffed from basic discipline, the landscape has changed. Social media and all these shit bag sensationalizing news stations only think of ratings versus responsible journalism. However those that are brought out into the light, love the attention so those watching all this want their 1 minute of fame.

**nidhogg** · 22-11-2021, 06:38 PM

^ Pretty sure that should be a million, not a billion.

Might want to edit that but we know what ya mean.

Thanks for the correction. Typo duly noted and edited. Carry on

All very true....notwithstanding the billions vs millions thing ....

It seems that the whole political arena has been hijacked by extreme elements at both ends of the spectrum. The news channels focus on the extremes. They promote division, mistrust and hatred.

The misinformation,
outright lies, defamation and race baiting I've seen during the Rittenhouse case has been truly disgraceful. Even the POTUS weighed in with inappropriate commentary long before the facts were established.

Nothing will ever improve until public figures, TV commentators and their invited "guests" are forced to behave responsibly and to be held accountable for their comments.

Free speech is sacred in a democratic society but character assassination, libel and slander is not free speech. Some many accusations were made against Rittenhouse....so much distorted and misleading statements made....all of which turned out to be untrue. No retractions, no apologies from any of the talking heads in the media. Biden could set an example by offering an apology for the comments he made prematurely....but of course he won't. He's a spinless career politician and the last thing they do is admit that they were wrong.

I would add read to Poe's words.

Alternatively, you could say that electing a dim fucking populist enabled every gullible, gun-crazy, racist, redneck whacko, and the internet has allowed a variety of interested parties to feed their frenzy with a variety of "They're taking our jobs/Taking our guns/Trying to inject us with 5G chips" style nonsense.

Little kyle wannabes are the inevitable result.

Really it's a shame these people breed.

I'll just leave this here but obviously we have to wait for the process of the investigation before we can make any judgement.

50cal. 55555 headbuster, what was the rifle?

Archery is definitely something I would like to get into.
