Q, I think I figured out a way for you to get your girly pics more easily. All you got to do is ask for them and then announce that you’re only doing it for “SCIENCE”.
Facebook is asking users to send the company their nude photos in an effort to tackle revenge porn, in an attempt to give some control back to victims of this type of abuse.
Individuals who have shared intimate, nude or sexual images with partners and are worried that the partner (or ex-partner) might distribute them without their consent can use Messenger to send the images to be “hashed”. This means that the company converts the image into a unique digital fingerprint that can be used to identify and block any attempts to re-upload that same image.
Facebook is piloting the technology in Australia in partnership with a government agency headed up by the e-safety commissioner, Julia Inman Grant, who told ABC it would allow victims of “image-based abuse” to take action before pictures were posted to Facebook, Instagram or Messenger.
Also, I’d totally forgotten about her. It’s a shame she’s kind of awful, because she’s cute. It’s sadder when cute girls are terrible SJW social media harridans.
Yeah, that rings a bell. Didn’t she start getting attacked via the Tweets for talking to people outside of the SJW sphere? Yeah, wait, wasn’t there some thing where some people were bitching because she started dating a guy, and then she sort of got red-pilled a bit?

I don’t believe for a second they want to confiscate all the guns. They just want everyone to turn them in voluntarily. And also to go to jail if they don’t. Totally different things.

Obligatory…
———-
“Well, I don’t accept your phraseology, I don’t think we force people –”
“Taxation is not forceful?”
“Well, no –”
“It’s voluntary?”
“– in fact, quite the contrary, our system of government is a voluntary tax system.”
“If you don’t want to pay your taxes, you don’t have to?”
“Oh, of course you have to pay your taxes, but –”
“Or the government will force you to pay, or they’ll fine you, or imprison you.”
All the Democrats had to do was be sane for four years and pick some inoffensive governor who wouldn’t scare the shit out of much of the country. Donald Trump was never that strong a candidate. And just a little tweaking from Hillary’s campaign strategy (just the stuff her own husband, a guy who got elected president twice, told her to do) would have shifted the electoral map. 2018 was largely a vindication of that strategy. They made inroads in Congress running moderate, inoffensive, candidates. Instead, they’ve sold themselves on an agenda of reparations, socialism, gun confiscation and woke hectoring.

Usually in the primaries, the candidates pander to the extremes a bit more and then tack to the center during the general election. Both parties do that. But I can’t imagine the final Dem candidate will be able to walk all this back. Even with the media on their side, all Trump has to do is tweet out one link a day that has a quote from a debate.

To be sure, some of the threat to good manufacturing jobs is due to globalization and automation. But a lot of auto manufacturing jobs still exist in the United States. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that nearly a million people work in the industry. Yet our law permits a race to the bottom among those jobs. Unlike labor law in most industrial democracies, U.S. labor law does not create a system of sectoral bargaining through which fair terms are negotiated and apply to all workers and companies in an industry. Instead, U.S. labor law channels organizing and bargaining to the level of the individual worksite and the individual firm.
This approach encourages firms to compete by busting unions and lowering wages. So when workers at the non-union auto companies have sought to unionize, they have been met with threats and intimidation. Pro-union workers at Volkswagen, for example, report being put under surveillance and required to attend mandatory anti-union meetings, including one at which the Governor of Tennessee personally urged workers to reject unionization.
When a group of Volkswagen workers did vote to unionize, the company refused to bargain, stalling in the hopes that, once dominated by Trump appointees, the administrative agency in charge of reviewing the case would switch its position, giving into management demands.
In short, a worksite-based bargaining system incentivizes employers to resist unionization. Moreover, even if workers succeed in organizing at the firm level despite intense employer resistance, bargaining with a single employer makes little sense in today’s economy. How can workers at the small companies that supply the big automakers with parts get a fair deal if they aren’t negotiating directly with the auto companies? Even unionized workers end up fighting an uphill battle: They have a collective voice in one worksite, or within one firm, but that is just not enough to limit downward pressure on employment, wages and benefits.
By contrast, in countries where a system of industrial or sectoral bargaining exists, workers and employers throughout the industry get together to agree on a fair deal for all. Under most sectoral bargaining systems, individual groups of workers and individual firms can still negotiate terms above the sectoral minimums and can still agree on more detailed work rules, But everyone has assurance that basic, fair standards will apply to all workers in the industry.
Bring back the unions. Make America great again.

Why does the supposed party of “workers” have nothing but trust fund kids within their ranks?
Socialists have proven Marx correct, in one way. Marx once said “history repeats itself- first as tragedy and then as farce”. Nothing is more farcical than American socialism degrading itself from Eugene Debs (who went to jail for opposing the draft) to AOC (who went to Congress for opposing basic math).
I seriously, seriously thought about the sale 80% Arms did a little while ago for one of their Gen 2 Easy Jigs and something like 3 lowers and 3 lower parts kits. You’d still have to buy the uppers, but it was a pretty good deal. Problem was I’d be spending a bunch of money I can’t afford in order to commit to having to spend even more money and then wind up with three rifles my wife would yell at me about.
Yeah, but then I’m out the money until I’ve got a buyer, and I likely won’t be able to recoup because I’ll be an obviously motivated seller. I’ve considered going in on the jig with a friend, but all the people I know who might be interested already have all the AR platform guns they want. I’ll probably just wind up buying the jig on its own next time it’s on sale.
Does anything else shoot that besides the PS90 and the Five-Seven? I like to collect calibers, but that seems niche even for me. And living in MD I could only buy the pistol anyway.
I need to do my two-stage scam on mine. I open with, “I’m getting a new safe that’s a little nicer looking, a little more secure, that kind of thing.” Naturally it’s bigger, too. Then, I do the, “What? Oh, no, I’ve had that gun for a while now,” bit when that safe gets full, possibly doing the “No, those were all stuffed together in the old safe,” as needed. It helps when she’s a willing participant in her own deception.

“I think he can [make a deal],” Rodman said, as reported by Fox News. “I think the fact that people better watch out for this: Kim Jong Un will be in America in 18 to 24 months. I guarantee it.”
When co-host Brian Kilmeade asked if this visit from Kim Jong Un would be an actual state visit, Rodman replied, “He’s coming to do one thing, to visit America.”
Rodman, who has visited North Korea on several occasions and even refers to Kim Jong Un as his “friend,” has been an outspoken supporter of Trump’s North Korea policy. In June of 2018, as the president and the dictator were gearing up for the first peace summit, the former Chicago Bulls champion even appeared on CNN wearing a MAGA hat and broke down into tears.

He said in a statement Thursday the company will concentrate on fulfilling military and law enforcement contracts with its rifle manufacturing.”
Translation: “We’ve realized that it will be more profitable to arm the gun grabbers rather than the law abiding citizen.”

Sending reporters to comedy shows…my God.
He was supposed to bring conservative viewers to SNL? How was changing one cog in a machine going to make a difference?
Lol, sort of like how Jennifer Rubin brings conservative readers to the Washington Post.
Except, for all I know, Gillis might actually be conservative.
Fair point. I do enjoy how media outlets will have one nominal, token conservative on staff and imply
“See, we show both sides!”
Look, why don’t you want SE Cupp to have a career?

I always thought she was “fluffy”, but she was basically Ok and that was good enough for a really pretty woman.
Nowadays, she’s an attractive, redheaded, female version of Bill Kristol. The last I saw of her, she was jumping on board the “common-sense gun safety!” train.
Andy Levy, formerly someone I had respect for, had a Tweet or two against Gillis for using slurs. I know it is easy to get caught up in the p.c./be polite mindset, but also you don’t have to like what he said, or think what he said is funny, to understand by agreeing with his firing you are essentially approving of Twitter bitching firing culture.
Andy Levy is 53. If he never used the word “retard” or made fun of Asian accents, I’ll eat my hat.
I had an acquaintance pull that shit on me once. I accused him of being a partisan hack and he posted some article with a bunch of so called Conservatives ripping on the Republicans. Not saying that the GOP deserves criticism because they do but the article basically confirmed his political views
I feel like that is something they are saying after they fact – he is just a big, goofy white guy. He mocks his appearance to get laughs, references Trump and MAGA stuff, but it’s to be funny. I would be shocked if he was actually pro-Trump, but now he is considered to be.
Well he did say Trump would be the funniest president to see get shot so yeah, definitely brought on for conservatives. *Rolls eyes*
I am not going to link to Salon, but this is one of the articles available today:
Even without Shane Gillis, “SNL” has always been a conservative show MARY ELIZABETH WILLIAMS
This is fucking insane.
It’s gotten to the point where it isn’t even hyperbole to say that the progressive media is insisting “the chocolate rations increase from 300 mgs to 200 mgs.”
Jesus. Just because you say something in an article doesn’t make it true.
Do they starve the unwoke? Do they allow filthy degenerate white people to live? NO! They are conservanazis!
If he’s even moderately successful with it, does anyone want to bet how long it will take the pussies at SNL to threaten legal action?

Mike Meyers, Alec Baldwin, and Jeanine Garaffalo (sp) did stereotypical Japanese accents and the skit basically mocked how absolutely insane Japanese game shows are sometimes.
My wife and I immediately said that there’s no way this could have been made today.
It definitely could not have been made now. Also, why is Alec Baldwin still a darling of the left with these videos available online? This Gillis guy gets fired, but Baldwin did the same things and he was literally just on SNL playing Trump a few months ago.
It’s almost like there’s some kind of double standard or something….

Seconded.
The war on (unwanted) dick pics has begun
Men, you know what to do. That being said, this is not going to end in well.
i saw that episode of Silicon Valley. hot dog advertisers hardest hit.
That’s what you get for having public social media accounts. It’s no different than walking down the street in Philadelphia.
“Hey slim, you know what I’d do to you?”
Anthony Weiner and Brett Farve hardest hit?
Canadian looney media have been breaking their pelvises bending over backwards to downplay Trudeau’s three blackface events calling it “face-darkening makeup” in headlines.
@ezralevant
“Face-darkening makeup”.
That’s a three-word grant application for a slice of Trudeau’s $600 million media bail-out, that’s what this is.
Face darkening makeup is out now? George Hamilton hardest hit.
From my voicemail:
The situation we have received a legal complaint under your social security number and your driver license number. We have received a legal complaint to block your social security number immediately. So before we go ahead legally blocking your Social Security number. So kindly, press one to connect to our officer or call us back on our number that is XXXX. I repeat is XXXX. Sorry you did not press one yet. Kindly, please, press one to contact our officer. Thank you and have a blessed day.
I’m guessing scam call like the one’s claiming you have a computer virus and they’ll clear it right up if you give them your IP address and CC number?
Yeah. I’m more intrigued by the script writer that thought including “have a blessed day” added to the pitch.
I’ve gotten hit by several scammers who include a lot of pseudo-christian phrases in their communications. I guess they figure dupes will assume they are honest if they feign being Christians.
I just got a robo call in Chinese. Seems like a low probability play…
I got one of those recently as well.
Ha! I got that one on my cell yesterday.
Robocall. Was yours a live hooman?
Robo
I prefer the human ones. At least with those I can pretend to be interested yet uncomprehending and distracted until they hang up in disgust.
^^ So much this ^^
If I got time to waste, I am gonna get even with the asshats trying to waste my time.
Yeah. Looks like another call center got stood up somewhere. I’ve noticed a big upswing in the robocalls recently.
I think the problem was all the people that told you they were named Mike, Bill, or Steve but sounded like Habib, Radji, or Patel. People immediately assumed scam and hung up.
To test the filter, Bressler solicited pictures of male genitalia en masse, receiving hundreds to the trial account @ShowYoDiq, “for science”.
She solicited hundreds of dick pics, to prove how much she hates dick pics. Okay, then.
I hate looking at pics of beautiful naked women.
If there’s one thing in this world I cannot abide, it’s seeing two gorgeous 18-22 year old women, preferably one of them a redhead, with their faces buried in each other’s crotches.
I am ok with that, what i hate is when that redhead shows up at my door and blows me.
I’m testing a new lesbian porn filter
Look how far we’ve come since “Dicks Out For Harambe”
The “beautiful naked women” filter is going to be very difficult to perfect, and will likely take many years of testing.
Sounds like a lot of hard work. You’ll need testers. I’ll volunteer.
With my Loser Aura, I’m sure my test batch would include the pics of all the “real” girls with big beautiful bodies. In their late 30’s.
Hey loser, real girls with natural bodies.
I was already following
“Hey Cindy, what are you up to tonight?”
“Oh, you know, just laying on my bed in lacy panties taking casual selfies of myself. Just like all women do.”
You are very good at that, bro. Hope you’re at work on a proper submission.
I don’t do anything…..

THAT IS WHAT WOMEN DO AT HOME ALONE DON’T YOU RUIN IT FOR US
https://www.instagram.com/angelmandii/
Story checks out.
Real women hate and castrate men.
Do you even 4th wave bro?
Further: I hope the saps who take all those pics get laid at least some of the time.
Uffda. I think Ilhan Omar may need a course on Minnesoda Nice.
Poor guy is married to a crazy person and lost his phoney-baloney job?
You know alimony can be done to either party nowadays if you get a good attorney. This just made it so much easier for him.
So she’s basically holding her husband hostage while she gallivants around Washington with her extramarital lover. Girrrrrrllll Power!
Do we need to add a third dimension to the Hot/Crazy Matrix? Hot/Crazy/Evil?
She really has a talent for finding new and interesting ways to be a total piece of shit
You know, that guy is worth more to her dead than alive…. I’d be shitting bricks if I were in his shoes.
The only thing saving his skin right now, is she needs someone to watch their kids. Can’t have the brats hanging around DC keeping her from getting her groove on.
Now if he sees a pic of her with Hillary…..
Is Ahmed Muslim? How’s does that work? Is a Muslim cuck the worst cuck?

https://www.newsweek.com/reich-trump-seriously-unstable-getting-worse-1459708
I am amazed that Trumputinhitler manages to be utterly stupid, unstably insane and criminally genius all at once. Much like each secular dictator we decide we need to regime change.
Also, he sites Bill Weld’s twitter account to bolster his argument. L. O. fucking L.
Jesus, what a loon.
Oh, no! Whatever can we do?!?
Spoiler alert: He invokes the 25th.
Again.
The three year temper tantrum continues.
Sorry I was already killed by ending net neutrality.
According to Reich and his buddies we’re all gonna die from climate change in 10 years anyway, so might as well get it over with quickly.
Spoiler alert: He invokes the 25th.
None of these hypocritical shits ever suggested removing McCain from the Senate when it was clear he was no longer going to be returning from Arizona.
He retweets a comedian’s sick suggestion that the Clintons were responsible for the suicide of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
It was joke.
There’s also the question of whether he’ll willingly leave.
-____________-
Trump is like Reagan to the extent that he is exactly who his voters voted for
Do these imbeciles think that Trump can on his own order a preemptive nuclear strike and the air force or navy will obey?!?
Either Robert Reich is trying to cynically scare people with threats that he knows are bullshit, or he is one of the dumbest motherfuckers who ever served in the U.S. cabinet.
My money is on the former. the man’s a commie despite living through the seventies and eighties. It takes a special sort of evil to be that way.
Hell, Trump could order a nuclear strike with full Congressional approval and some district judge in San Jose would put a TRO on it (not that that would be a bad thing).
It’s pure propaganda.
“To test the filter, Bressler solicited pictures of male genitalia en masse, receiving hundreds to the trial account @ShowYoDiq, “for science”.”
Q, I think I figured out a way for you to get your girly pics more easily. All you got to do is ask for them and then announce that you’re only doing it for “SCIENCE”.
Can I test the effect of my penis in their vagina? For science of course.
So long as you shout “SCIENCE” after anything I think they got to let you get away with it.
The Title IX loophole we’ve been looking for.
The Aussies are way ahead of us.
A perfect Impersonation of Herself
I got banned once for saving a YouTube video to one of my playlist.
^^^RONGTHINKUR!!!!!!
That’s funny.
Also, I’d totally forgotten about her. It’s a shame she’s kind of awful, because she’s cute. It’s sadder when cute girls are terrible SJW social media harridans.
Before she took her break she’s started to re-evaluate her positions and actually talk to people with other views.
Yeah, I think she was conversing with Lauren Southern which is not allowed by the tolerent left.
I would very much like to “converse” with Lauren Southern.
Indubitably
Yeah, that rings a bell. Didn’t she start getting attacked via the Tweets for talking to people outside of the SJW sphere? Yeah, wait, wasn’t there some thing where some people were bitching because she started dating a guy, and then she sort of got red-pilled a bit?
Sounds about right.

https://hotair.com/archives/allahpundit/2019/09/19/schumer-lies-dont-know-single-democrat-supports-beto-orourke-gun-confiscation/
Like I said, I’d like to thank Beto for doing this. Keep pushing confiscation Dems, it’s sure to work out great for ya.
They’re no doubt the gun and ammo industries greatest salesmen.
The “nobody wants to confiscate your guns” narrative is drawn and quartered, thanks to Beto. He did the 2A movement a great service.
“No no no, we don’t wan’t to confiscate your guns….we just don’t want you to have them anymore so we’re going to take them away” – 2019 Dems
I don’t know. “Clinging to their guns and Bibles” worked for Obama.
the Senate saved us from Obama
In construction, principles, and moving parts, the Senate has never been more important; sadly, it is today no excellent fall-back trench to which we might retreat on Trump’s worse days.
I don’t believe for a second they want to confiscate all the guns. They just want everyone to turn them in voluntarily. And also to go to jail if they don’t. Totally different things.
Obligatory…
———-
“Well, I don’t accept your phraseology, I don’t think we force people –”
“Taxation is not forceful?”
“Well, no –”
“It’s voluntary?”
“– in fact, quite the contrary, our system of government is a voluntary tax system.”
“If you don’t want to pay your taxes, you don’t have to?”
“Oh, of course you have to pay your taxes, but –”
“Or the government will force you to pay, or they’ll fine you, or imprison you.”
“We have a voluntary system.”

Donald Trump is truly blessed in his enemies.
All the Democrats had to do was be sane for four years and pick some inoffensive governor who wouldn’t scare the shit out of much of the country. Donald Trump was never that strong a candidate. And just a little tweaking from Hillary’s campaign strategy (just the stuff her own husband, a guy who got elected president twice, told her to do) would have shifted the electoral map. 2018 was largely a vindication of that strategy. They made inroads in Congress running moderate, inoffensive, candidates. Instead, they’ve sold themselves on an agenda of reparations, socialism, gun confiscation and woke hectoring.
It’s simultaneously hilarious and terrifying.
Usually in the primaries, the candidates pander to the extremes a bit more and then tack to the center during the general election. Both parties do that. But I can’t imagine the final Dem candidate will be able to walk all this back. Even with the media on their side, all Trump has to do is tweet out one link a day that has a quote from a debate.
Our memory as a society seems short enough that Nov., 2020 might as well be 2100
It’s a true statement. He knows multiple democrats who support it, not a single Democrat. That’s how you politic.
And now, a word from the Democratic Socialists of America
To be sure, some of the threat to good manufacturing jobs is due to globalization and automation. But a lot of auto manufacturing jobs still exist in the United States. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that nearly a million people work in the industry. Yet our law permits a race to the bottom among those jobs. Unlike labor law in most industrial democracies, U.S. labor law does not create a system of sectoral bargaining through which fair terms are negotiated and apply to all workers and companies in an industry. Instead, U.S. labor law channels organizing and bargaining to the level of the individual worksite and the individual firm.
This approach encourages firms to compete by busting unions and lowering wages. So when workers at the non-union auto companies have sought to unionize, they have been met with threats and intimidation. Pro-union workers at Volkswagen, for example, report being put under surveillance and required to attend mandatory anti-union meetings, including one at which the Governor of Tennessee personally urged workers to reject unionization.
When a group of Volkswagen workers did vote to unionize, the company refused to bargain, stalling in the hopes that, once dominated by Trump appointees, the administrative agency in charge of reviewing the case would switch its position, giving into management demands.
In short, a worksite-based bargaining system incentivizes employers to resist unionization. Moreover, even if workers succeed in organizing at the firm level despite intense employer resistance, bargaining with a single employer makes little sense in today’s economy. How can workers at the small companies that supply the big automakers with parts get a fair deal if they aren’t negotiating directly with the auto companies? Even unionized workers end up fighting an uphill battle: They have a collective voice in one worksite, or within one firm, but that is just not enough to limit downward pressure on employment, wages and benefits.
By contrast, in countries where a system of industrial or sectoral bargaining exists, workers and employers throughout the industry get together to agree on a fair deal for all. Under most sectoral bargaining systems, individual groups of workers and individual firms can still negotiate terms above the sectoral minimums and can still agree on more detailed work rules, But everyone has assurance that basic, fair standards will apply to all workers in the industry.
Bring back the unions. Make America great again.
By contrast, in countries where a “system of industrial or sectoral bargaining exists”…..the standard of living is way lower.
Could easily have been “Now a word from Association of Americans with IQs South of 60”.
I see the Democratic Socialists are huge fans of 1930’s style fascism! Well, at least they’re honest and true to their roots.
Why does the supposed party of “workers” have nothing but trust fund kids within their ranks?
Socialists have proven Marx correct, in one way. Marx once said “history repeats itself- first as tragedy and then as farce”. Nothing is more farcical than American socialism degrading itself from Eugene Debs (who went to jail for opposing the draft) to AOC (who went to Congress for opposing basic math).
I need more guns
Who don’t, brutha, who don’t?
I seriously, seriously thought about the sale 80% Arms did a little while ago for one of their Gen 2 Easy Jigs and something like 3 lowers and 3 lower parts kits. You’d still have to buy the uppers, but it was a pretty good deal. Problem was I’d be spending a bunch of money I can’t afford in order to commit to having to spend even more money and then wind up with three rifles my wife would yell at me about.
Still, though…
You could just sell on two of the unused kits.
Yeah, but then I’m out the money until I’ve got a buyer, and I likely won’t be able to recoup because I’ll be an obviously motivated seller. I’ve considered going in on the jig with a friend, but all the people I know who might be interested already have all the AR platform guns they want. I’ll probably just wind up buying the jig on its own next time it’s on sale.
Glib gun buying club?
That is called Tulpa goes to the gunstore.
Get a new wife. Or better yet, don’t have a wife.
You missed the daily deal

I wonder how many lowers got mailed to Beto after that little speech of his.
Two words: FN PS90.
I like the design but I don’t want to have to buy 5.7 ammo.
Does anything else shoot that besides the PS90 and the Five-Seven? I like to collect calibers, but that seems niche even for me. And living in MD I could only buy the pistol anyway.
https://masterpiecearms.com/shop/mpa57sst-5-7x28mm-pistol/
And AR uppers.
I suppose I should refresh….
There is an upper called the AR57. I’d link it but I am at work.
If you like to collect calibers, maybe something in 6.8mm SIG hybrid?

The new safe will hold 6 to 8 long guns. So my wife is sort of pre-advised on where things are headed.
I need to do my two-stage scam on mine. I open with, “I’m getting a new safe that’s a little nicer looking, a little more secure, that kind of thing.” Naturally it’s bigger, too. Then, I do the, “What? Oh, no, I’ve had that gun for a while now,” bit when that safe gets full, possibly doing the “No, those were all stuffed together in the old safe,” as needed. It helps when she’s a willing participant in her own deception.

All you have to do is clap at the DSA and they will crumble.
+1 point of privilege
If only there was a way by which each individual worker could negotiate their pay and benefits directly with their employer, based on their individual skills and abilities…..
Oh wait, that’s exactly how it works
To be sure,
And . . . I’m out.
…U.S. labor law does not create a system of sectoral bargaining through which fair terms are negotiated and apply to all workers and companies in an industry.
Thank goodness it doesn’t. And wouldn’t such a system be a monopoly on the labor side? IANAL — do monopoly statutes apply on the labor side as well?
When a group of Volkswagen workers did vote to unionize
When was this? The union has lost every vote at VW Chattanooga.
Thanks everyone.
And Tonio, that wasn’t a shout out/shout back. I was going to riff on what you did, but I had to junk a couple bits (one of which was complete) and was really running up against the clock. I just wanted to get as many ‘gangster’ names out there as I could from a bunch of varied places. Fat Tony seemed to fit Spanky.
The Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Energy and Commerce will hold a hearing on Thursday entitled “Protecting Unaccompanied Children: The Ongoing Impact of the Trump Administration’s Cruel Policies.”
If you think the immigration code is cruel you should propose legislation to amend it.
“Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Energy and Commerce”
Ok, now they’re just fucking with us.
I think they mean the Obama administration’s cruel policies
Dennis Rodman: Trump Can Make A Deal With Kim Jong Un
“I think he can [make a deal],” Rodman said, as reported by Fox News. “I think the fact that people better watch out for this: Kim Jong Un will be in America in 18 to 24 months. I guarantee it.”
When co-host Brian Kilmeade asked if this visit from Kim Jong Un would be an actual state visit, Rodman replied, “He’s coming to do one thing, to visit America.”
Rodman, who has visited North Korea on several occasions and even refers to Kim Jong Un as his “friend,” has been an outspoken supporter of Trump’s North Korea policy. In June of 2018, as the president and the dictator were gearing up for the first peace summit, the former Chicago Bulls champion even appeared on CNN wearing a MAGA hat and broke down into tears.
BREAKING: Gunmaker Colt says it is suspending its production of rifles for the civilian market including the popular AR-15.
Much like “free speech”, the 2nd Amendment will just be pressured out of existence. But, don’t you dare attack a private company for caving to government run institutions pressuring them. When a private company takes a woke action the proper response is “muh…selective freedom of association”. You reserve your righteous indignation and political attacks for those hate cake bakers.
Didn’t they do this a while ago? Good thing they’ve got those sweet government contracts that make sure they sell all their products at an artificial premium while simultaneously ensuring America’s soldiers carry an infantry rifle that should have been obsolete 30 years ago.
They split the company in two for a while I think.
I read that they are temporarily suspending production. Not a long term thing.
“It’s not forever,” Spitale said. “It’s to say that, at this moment, we’re listening to consumers and putting our resources where they’re most valued.”
“It’s to say that, at this moment, we’re listening to consumers
Whose consumers are they listening to? Not consumers of their products, who are emptying stores of AR-15s at a rapid clip.
But not $1000+ AR-15s.
Yeah, last I heard about Colt ARs is that they’re expensive as hell and not that great.
Got a link there, cowboy?
https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/colt-halts-sales-of-long-guns-to-the-retail-market/
Google new had many links, but I’m not chasing any of them at work.
First of all, I identify as “cowboy curious”. Don’t assume my Wild West persona, bigot.
Secondly, yes, I do have a link.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/colt-suspends-production-ar-15-civilian-market-65725178
FTA:
“Colt’s chief executive officer, Dennis Veilleux, says it is not permanently ending production but believes there is already an adequate supply of sporting rifles on the market. He said in a statement Thursday the company will concentrate on fulfilling military and law enforcement contracts with its rifle manufacturing.”
Translation: “We’ve realized that it will be more profitable to arm the gun grabbers rather than the law abiding citizen.”
Cause no one’s buying them

Hell, I thought this guy was dead.
I don’t know why, but I believe this guy
Don’t. He’s a tard. But he does do a lot of cosmetic gunsmithing, so you can trust him on that.
Are you telling me that I shouldn’t take at face value the remarks of a guy who runs a YouTube show from his heavily armed garage?
Well now I don’t know who to believe
Seconded. He’s mostly good for a laugh at his expense.
Well now I don’t know who to believe
Yeager. Believe Yeager….
Paul Harrell.
Got it on my phone. Its cool. People in the know, know there are better ARs out there than Colt.
Whatever you say, chief
Well…technically I would be hanging out with the “Northern Mexicans” in prison not the Chiefs.
Mexicans were the original cowboys (except with bigger hats and more guns).
You guys were so bad ass that American settlers copied you and then pretended like they didn’t and then cast you as Indians in American westerns. The circle of life.
We need a term for that Gringicano? Chico del Norte? or maybe American?
I’d kinda forgotten they were still making ARs.
Well…when Wally World stopped selling them, they kind of fell out of fashion.
They say it’s temporary. I assume it has more to do with their lack of sales than anything.
See! Even Crusty gets it. Build your own AR, people!
EVEN! What am I, yesterday’s tomatoes?
“Your righteous indignation is misplaced because this story is not entirely true”
That’s what you sound like right now. Do better
Isn’t that kind of a valid criticism of righteous indignation?
Another guy trying to use logic and common sense.
The correct response should be “I’m buying an AR 15 right now to own Colt”.
Do better
What if you don’t think ARs are all that cool or interesting? What if you think they are still Mattel guns, that have only become beloved of the gun community because the grabbers have an irrational fear of ‘scary black rifle’ and keep trying to ban them?
Then you obviously didn’t play with legos or erector sets, and might not actually be a man.
Because only ARs can be customized or build from parts?
What if you don’t think ARs are all that cool or interesting?
* raises hand *
But, like my Glock EDC: while not A+ on every point, they work, the price is right, the ammo is pretty well thought through. I’m with Suthen, more an M14 guy, but I’m not going to say that the AR platform isn’t pretty useful and handy.
And legos weren’t the only building block game in town either. But there’s a reason nobody talks about Tente anymore.
I’m with Suthen, more an M14 guy,
Same here. I’m not humping it for miles on a deep raid where I need a couple hundred rounds of ammo. At my age, its for static defense. I’ll take the additional ballistic impact of the .308, thank you very much, and the additional range.
their lack of sales
And here I thought there was a run on AR-15s.
Glad I got a PSA AR. Which has subsequently been lost in a tragic boating accident, of course. . .
That’s the fourth boating accident I’ve heard about in the past week. We need common sense boat control
Termites ate all my guns.

Your schooner is dinghy.
My schooner is majestic.
Just galleons of junk.
You better stop before you start singing me the score of HMS Pinnafore.
And what of my frigate?
It is a dog, watch all it does is barque.
Cocksuckers used to make good guns. They got outcompeted anyway.
A guy at the last shooting match was using a Colt Python. Gorgeous gun, but the guy’s times were crap.
Was he as old as the revolver?
Yup. He probably bought it during the original production run.
Neither I or my gf own any Colt product.
*shrug*
Not even Malt Liquor? Cause Billy Dee convinced me that you need the .45 to get a girl.
Works every time.
Colt has been the “woke” gunmaker for a while now
well that leaves about 50+ other companies still standing.
BREAKING: Gunmaker Colt says it is suspending its production of rifles for the civilian market including the popular AR-15.
Is Colt even still in business?They have been circling the drain for quite a while.
I wouldn’t bother to act surprised if you told me they were putting “Colt” on guns made in Pakistani back yards.
Hey, it’s been a while since Karla Marx said anything particularly stup-
Oh, never mind.
Gerald Ford was still in the White House when Ed Markey was first elected to Congress.
This just seems evergreen.
