I was hoping I would find something like that when I read the title. Tell us about it.

It's just an old photo of my son's AR after I have him the optic for his birthday. He later added a FDE vertical forward grip, but I don't have any newer pics that include it.

That looks dangerous

It was....until that tragic boating accident....

The number of firearms lost to boating accidents on this site is alarming.

Someone should ban boats.

Hildebeast's most recent statement:


FactCheck: 33,000 gun deaths includes suicides & accidents
Hillary Clinton asserted, "90 people a day die from gun violence in our country. That's 33,000 people a year." Is that true? We checked and found that her statement was technically true but misleading.
The federal CDC publishes statistics on causes of death for all Americans. Here are the figures from their 2013 update:
•21,175 suicide by gun
•11,208 homicide by gun
•505 accidental discharge of firearms
•32,888 total deaths by firearm
So Secretary Clinton is technically correct about her figures. The misleading aspect is that voters interpret "death from gun violence" as "murder". Self-inflicted and accidentally-inflicted deaths should not count in a political discussion about restricting firearms (or at least, should be counted differently). Clinton chose to use the misleading statistic because it is more persuasive than saying "11,000 deaths from intentional gun violence against others". We rate Clinton's statement as "true but misleading."

An anti-2A politician....Hillary Clinton specifically...was less than honest about this issue? I'm shocked....SHOCKED, I tell you!

Also not included are breakouts of justifiable homicide (self-defense, etc.) or bad guys killing bad guys, because those don't fit the narrative, either.

And certainly Hillary doesn't want to discuss the stats on crime prevented or lives SAVED with a gun, discharged or not.

She was also spouting some nonsense about Vermont gun-running while the NY primary was hot (I guess maple syrup smuggling isn't as lucrative as it once was), but I was too busy enjoying her tap dances about Wall Street and the FBI investigation to let it really sink in...

LOL

We really should invest in some bungie cords, or something...
