  1. I have just mentioned about c4, because I wanted to point they weren't just "mystery leaks" but delibarate action, international terrorism. Deliberate sabotage was already announced by the EU end of Sept................ There's an OP on it if you look.
  2. The F22 which was the fighter used has: "one M61A2 20-millimeter cannon with 480 rounds" https://www.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/104506/f-22-raptor/
  3. Norway, which runs baltic pipeline, is implicated (together with the USA), in blowing nord stream. Yes you've posted multiple times today on all the threads on this claim by an anonymous source.
  4. Yet in states with tighter gun controls there are less gun related deaths. Seems stricter gun control works. https://everytownresearch.org/rankings/
  5. You think they're going to sell fighter jets to Africa...................lol
  6. I see the class act Marjorie Greene was there mouthing off.................. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., blasted Twitter executives for banning her from the site in 2022 until after she won her election in November and said she was glad the former executives lost their jobs, Greene argued the company violated her First Amendment rights by censoring her for posts about COVID-19 vaccines despite Twitter being a private company rather than a government censor. “You abused the power of a large corporation – Big Tech – to censor Americans,” Greene said, “Guess what? I’m so glad that you’re censored now and I’m so glad that you’ve lost your jobs.” Yoel Roth, Twitter’s former global head of trust and security, said Greene was banned after multiple warnings and timeouts for posting misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2023/02/08/hunter-biden-twitter-hearing/11210728002/
  7. Musk playing games that have serious consequences SpaceX curbed Ukraine's use of Starlink internet for drones -company president WASHINGTON, Feb 8 (Reuters) - SpaceX has taken steps to prevent Ukraine’s military from using the company’s Starlink satellite internet service for controlling drones in the region during the country’s war with Russia, SpaceX’s president said Wednesday. SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet service, which has provided Ukraine’s military with broadband communications in its defense against Russia’s military, was “never never meant to be weaponized,” Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s president and chief operating officer, said during a conference in Washington, D.C. https://www.reuters.com/article/ukraine-crisis-spacex/spacex-curbed-ukraines-use-of-starlink-internet-for-drones-company-president-idUSL1N34O32S
  8. Ukraine's envoy to UN calls Roger Waters ‘another brick in the wall’ of Moscow propaganda.
  9. How about doing something that addresses the problem of assault weapons causing more deaths when used in mass shootings? Although hand guns are the most common, when assault rifles are used more deaths occur. Mass Shootings Involving Assault Weapons Kill More People Than Other Weapons https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=576E306C-5FD4-4144-A28A-2C034628D888 More mass shooters are using semi-automatic rifles – often bought legally https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2022/07/12/mass-shootings-weapons-legal-what-to-know/7814081001/ An analysis of public mass shootings resulting in four or more deaths found that more than 85% of such fatalities were caused by assault rifles. https://giffords.org/lawcenter/gun-laws/policy-areas/hardware-ammunition/assault-weapons/ The Second Amendment Does Not Protect Assault Weapons https://www.halunenlaw.com/the-second-amendment-does-not-protect-assault-weapons/
  10. It takes time to amend laws but if you don't start, then it will never happen. First step, the title of this OP Ban assault weapons now
  11. The same Seymour Hersh who had 'sources' to come up with a whacky conspiracy theory on Osama bin Laden he presented as fact?
  12. For clarification on AR-15 calibers: What Determines the Caliber of an AR-15? The AR-15 was initially designed to be used specifically with a 5.56x45mm cartridge. However, due to its popularity, there is now a variety of calibers. But what determines the caliber of an AR-15 depends on what you are aiming for with this powerful rifle. https://tacticalgunreview.com/what-determines-the-caliber-of-an-ar-15/ AR-15 calibers and cartridges are legion. Finding the right one is a matter of matching it to the job you want your rifle to perform. What Are the AR-15 Cartridge Choices https://gundigest.com/rifles/ar-15/ar-15-calibers-and-cartridges-what-should-you-chamber-your-carbine
  13. Or you can just go online a buy one: The Diamondback DB15 is the AR-15 style rifle of your dreams. https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/firearms/tactical/ar-15-rifles/?https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/firearms/tactical/ar-15-rifles/=undefined&start=0&sz=36 Besides which you totally ignored the facts about the AR-15 .223 has dangerous high-velocity ammunition which has more gun powder and consequently far deadlier than a normal hand gun .22 or did you miss the links to the evidence in my post?
  14. AR-15 Caliber Choices 300 Blackout The 300 Blackout name is perfect because it is heavier and larger than other calibers, this sturdy caliber is even designed for special operation forces. Due to the .30 caliber bore, the 300 Blackout offers a broader range of projectile choices and is perfect for hunting. This caliber is exceptional for hunting medium or large game such as deer and smaller bears. The 300 Blackout can be used with a suppressor and a short barrel for home defense, the short barrel allows for more effortless movement around your home, and the suppressor protects you and your family’s hearing, this caliber is not a good choice if you live in an apartment due to its high barrier penetration. https://tacticalgunreview.com/what-determines-the-caliber-of-an-ar-15/
  15. In most cases, they are the equivalent of a Ferrari car body housing a 4 cylinder 90hp engine. All show and no go. Yet that's not what the experts say as evidenced through the links in my post and the awful wounds inflicted on those who have been killed of injured.
  16. The AR-15 can also be used with higher caliber's not just .223 300 Blackout The 300 Blackout name is perfect because it is heavier and larger than other calibers. This sturdy caliber is even designed for special operation forces. Due to the .30 caliber bore, the 300 Blackout offers a broader range of projectile choices and is perfect for hunting. This caliber is exceptional for hunting medium or large game such as deer and smaller bears. There are others also. However even when used with the .223 it still does far more damage to tissue than a normal gun. The AR-15 .223 is dangerous high-velocity ammunition which has more gun powder. The bullet "Yaw" plays a big factor in the damage once it enters tissue, spinning or even exploding/fragmenting causing multiple wounds. This guy is a fire arms trainer from Canada and gives a graphic description of what those rounds can do, here's a brief snippet but more in the video: "He pointed out that unlike rounds fired from handguns, the “.223 travels really, really fast, and that creates some problems should you get hit with it.” For example, he said the bullet produces a “little shockwave,” which leads to a “temporary stretch cavity.” If the bullet strikes a thigh, for example, “it’s going to suck a bunch of air in there.” This leads to “massive tissue disruption and tissue death” because “your skin has been pulled apart and it tears, and it collapses back together again.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bvuAqU1wm4 Another expert when using the AR-15 "There's going to be a lot more damage to the tissues, both bones, organs, whatever gets kind of even near this bullet path. The bones aren't going to just break, they're going to shatter. Organs aren't just going to tear or have bruises on them, they're going to be, parts of them are going to be destroyed." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ar-15-mass-shootings-60-minutes-2022-05-29/
  17. I was wondering why this was taking so long but I guess this is the reason, from the OP link: "The district attorney who had been leading the state case, Yvonne Rosales, resigned in November over accusations of incompetence involving hundreds of cases in El Paso and slowing down the case against Crusius." His weapon of choice: wiki
  18. Germany foreign minister, with declaration of war against russia, Repeating the Russian propoganda eh...............

  19. He's just landed and will also be meeting King Charles III during his trip to the UK. Live updates: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/uk-politics-64566762
  20. The Kremlin likes him..............lol Russia asks Pink Floyd's Roger Waters to speak on Ukraine arms at UN UNITED NATIONS, Feb 7 (Reuters) - Russia has asked Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters to speak to the U.N. Security Council on Wednesday at a meeting that Moscow requested to discuss the delivery of weapons to Ukraine. https://www.reuters.com/world/russia-asks-pink-floyds-roger-waters-speak-ukraine-arms-un-2023-02-07/
  21. "President Biden directed that all sensitive sites were protected from espionage, “which was straightforward because we could track the path of the balloon and ensure no sensitive activities or unencrypted communications would be conducted in its vicinity,” Chinese balloon part of vast aerial surveillance program, U.S. says On Monday, Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman led a briefing on China’s balloon espionage for some 150 people from about 40 embassies, said a senior administration official familiar with the matter, the department has also sent to every U.S. Embassy a “detailed information” on the espionage that can be shared with allies and partners. Separately, U.S. officials have begun to share specifics with officials in countries such as Japan whose military facilities were targeted by Beijing. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/2023/02/07/china-spy-balloon-intelligence/ https://archive.ph/1VOtB
  22. Biden speech takeaways: More conciliation than conflict Biden’s speech almost defiantly ignored the bitter divisions between Republicans and Democrats and his own low standing with the public. He returned repeatedly to common ground, making the case that both parties can back U.S. factories, new businesses being formed and the funding of 20,000 infrastructure projects. When Biden hit each of these themes, Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy politely clapped, evening standing to applaud at one point. https://apnews.com/article/state-of-the-union-biden-speech-takeaways-2023-7e4aaa861e13f87c499dca512037cdbe
  23. Only that wasn't a response, it was given hours before Biden's speech. Jumping the gun ever so slightly. "Hours before the speech, McConnell took to the Senate floor to pop the balloon on Biden’s big night"
  24. It doesn't take much to get the rumour mill going, a question, a remark, even if there's no truth in it. Look how it started when Elon made a single tweet: "There is a tiny possibility there may be more to the story than meets the eye".............. That's how it works and Trump knows it.
  25. Well Trump's got a second chance now although he'll probably decline this one too. Biden admin offers to brief Trump officials on past Chinese spy balloon incursions The Biden administration is willing to brief former Trump officials on newly discovered intelligence that China sent spy balloons into U.S. airspace during their time in charge. The offer, described by senior Biden administration officials on Sunday night, comes as former President Donald Trump and senior members of his national security team say they were never briefed on such an incursion by a Beijing-sent aircraft. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/02/05/trump-officials-deny-chinese-spy-balloons-00081257
