gun guys be like "I need a reliable weapons platform that can survive every harsh environment, it also needs to be able to shoot in extreme weather without failure, I want it to hit the exact problem I point at" buddy you want a guided missile destroyer
The market value of the Star Wars franchise is so low now that George Lucas should buy it back at a profit and say that all of the Disney movies are no longer canon.
Because far too many supposedly smart people --who really aren't all that smart --became infected with the mind virus that is bleeding heart liberalism and then 'woke' and began to ruin everything that made their society functional.
I mean, it's a good question. Why hasn't human civilization naturally developed into a brutal aristocracy of the highly moral and high-IQ? Why don't we have a global "130 IQ high-trust Anglo" paradise already?
What mysterious force obviously overcomes and beats intelligence?
It is the year 2044, and MAGA just mandated that all of American's nuclear plants become gothicized. As a result, the Harambe School of Nuclear Engineering and Gothic Architecture is founded in Louisville, KY.
The level of betrayal that has played out here is insane.
Normally, labor scarcity is how an economy heals itself. When workers become harder to find, employers have to raise wages to deal with it, and out of this market slowdown the seeds of a new boom would be sowed as young people have greater purchasing power to buy a home, get married, and have kids of their own.
But instead of allowing that correction to happen, America chose a different model. We’ve mass imported millions of replacements to suppress wages, blowing out asset prices in the process and leaving native Americans economically (and increasingly culturally and politically) dispossessed in their own country.

This is not to downplay the cultural differences across europe or across America -- and I do think those across America are larger, not least because America is so much larger -- but we all have a lot more in common than people like to pretend.
My number one takeaway from reading through these discussions about travel both within the US and elsewhere (like europe) is that almost no one actually knows what culture is, and that most euros conflate it with language -- which related but *not* the same.

@11975MHz Same exact "culture" buddy, from the west to the east, america is just the same, no difference, whatsoever.
Stay in your delulu world if you want too, doesn't change the fact that i'm right.

But there is a reason that europe produced no less than five globe-spanning empires (British, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, French, to a lesser extent Swedish, German, Italian as well), and its offshoot, America, is the most powerful polity in the history of humanity.
young couples trying to raise a family in our clown economy are admirable bordering on heroic, so if you have kids, its actually a patriotic duty to invade spaces where boomers, "childfree" redditors, disney adults, other sorts of foul beasts, cavort and stuff their putrid jowls

Maybe you wonder why I, a mere gun blog, makes a big deal about Flock and similar tech?
OK here’s a real world situation that can easily happen and has likely happened.
Unfortunately to drive on public roads without getting hassled by the cops, your car needs a license plate. That’s tied to you, the owner of the vehicle.
Flock isn’t just a traffic camera, it’s an AI/ML enabled (wait for it) flock of cameras that transmit all their video and audio to the mothership. Not a government server somewhere but, to keep it simple, a big giant cloud computer instance owned and run by Flock, the company.
Government users, as well as Flock employees here in the US and overseas, can log in and query the system based on license plate number or even vehicle description and get a full history of that vehicle’s movements throughout the Flock network over multiple jurisdictions. Someone in New York can track a car from Armonk all the way to Homestead FL if they feel like it from the comfort of their desk.
On a daily level, someone can get a pretty accurate picture of someone’s life just by monitoring their movements via Flock. And I’m using this example to rattle the cage of the “back the blue unconditionally” crowd in 2A.
OK - your car has license plate ABC 123 - and Flock knows this. Someone can enter your tag in Flock and see what you are doing on a daily basis. You leave your home where the neighborhood is under the Flock panopticon. Flock sees you drive to Dunkin’ on Main Street, then you drop your kid off at XYZ Daycare. Then you go to work at the local IT consulting firm in ZZZ industrial park. You go pick up a quick deli sandwich for lunch at Food Lion. You go back to work. On the way home you stop off at Bob’s Guns, and stay for 20 minutes while buying some ammo. Then you go home. Everywhere there’s a Flock camera.
Now Flock knows the following about you:
- You live at 123 Wisteria Lane
- Your kid is in daycare (means he’s likely under 5)
- You work at ZZZ
- You go cheap on lunch
- You own at least one gun
Your license plate is tied to you so they now have your name and assumed-to-be-private details of your life, like that you are armed.
On the reverse of that, the Flock camera outside of Bob’s Guns has been recording the plates of everyone going into the parking lot. No need for a firearms registry when Flock is doing the work.
All of this is done without a warrant and the data is available to anyone with a certain level of access to the system, whether it’s a cop, or a Flock technician in the Philippines. FYI Flock uses overseas contractors for support and AI annotation.
The 2018 Carpenter decision at SCOTUS ruled that pervasive surveillance where one can divine private details of someone’s life is a 4th Amendment violation in absence of a specific warrant.
Flock is illegal, unconstitutional and immoral.
And a danger to everyone, not just gun owners.
Man, that first image. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Could just as easily say

Proven underage victims of Epstein:
One girl who had sex with him voluntarily and was one day from her 18th birthday.
Proven underage victims of Muslim rape gangs:
Thousands and thousands of girls age 11-14; terrorized, enslaved, and repeatedly gang raped.
In many British cities the Muslim population had a widespread culture of child rape, where a large proportion participated, and none of them went to the police about it.
The real face of organized pedophile threat is not Epstein, it is Muslim and Pakistani immigrants.
Your CITY is NOT "walkable" until it is safe enough for an UNACCOMPANIED elementary schooler to take the shoelace express from city limits to downtown. If it's not walkable for an 8 year old child, it's not walkable at all. Is this standard too high for you? Too difficult?
FYI: collapsible batons are much cheaper than guns, don’t need licensure and are a lot less of an escalation simply to draw but are scary enough to deter and extend your reach by >1’ if not. I got my Smith & Wesson for $50. Break their legs and run! (Check legality in your area.)
