  1. For reference, disch is 340, 400, 325. Some shit LaTech hit woulda been out. It's no disch but the trees should be a decent batter's eye.
  2. I know everyone like to shit on LHN but if that's ESPN or SEC coverage we don't see anything that happened after the last pitch. That was weird and awesome.
  3. His slider is almost always on. He had an outing earlier this year where he threw 0 fast ball strikes but still struck out the side ... He has great stuff and just needs frequent reps to see if he's on or not.
  4. Dude's about to be legit Also I'm so glad we're up 8
  5. Happy to have a beer with you one day. I'm sure we'd find tons of common ground.
  6. I regularly challenge my Q aligned friend(s) and they make me feel like a leftist on literally everything but the 2nd. Scared of everything is cute but false. There are modern tools that nearly everyone has and I simply prefer to be modestly prepared. If someone ever enters my house uninvited, my kids are separated from us, and I have to be able to move toward them with confidence. So ... you're chief concern is the psycho right wing militia? Fair. And your answer to that concern is..? to disarm the people that are willing to turn in their arms? ..Do you see the issue?
  7. Police are useless, government is useless and in steady decline, protect yourselves.
  8. Fuck the DA? https://nypost.com/2022/06/03/la-mom-mowed-down-by-teen-driver-blasts-da-over-probation-sentence/ Probably easier to watch the video here:
  9. Gotcha, thanks, I've said (buried in this thread), there should be criminal consequences for a parent (or girlfriend?) failing to reasonably* secure their firearms if they're used to commit a crime. *angle grinders exist
  10. Running out of eligibility?
  11. First, everything about that is already illegal. What law would prevent that? Second, lol at immediate malfunction. Even after manually ejecting the spent round I don't think it was going to fire again if he pulled the trigger.
  12. How big of a tax? Hi-points are like $99 So big that only the rich law abiding can defend themselves? It's the lack of educational and career opportunities and the 'glamorous' drug trade that makes the boys born into these situations need a gun. If they need it and can't buy it, they will steal it.
  13. Desks made from steel plate with nylon straps so they can be used as shields are probably next.
  14. I dont follow your analogy. Are you comparing legal possession of a firearm to murder? Sure, let's ignore that mass shootings represent less than 1% of all homicides in the US. How do you wish for the US to proceed? Do you see any value in criminals not knowing which Americans are armed? Would you rather be armed in the tiny chance someone tries to kill you, or would you rather wait for the brave, competent police?
  15. Are you referring to specific proposed legislation that might accomplish this?
  16. I've said nothing of the sort. I'm saying that new gun laws won't prevent gang members from killing each other... and that the number of young men or boys killed every year in gang violence dwarfs the number of young people killed in school shootings.
  17. The federal government doesn't outlaw bazookas, just like they don't outlaw machine guns. They just made the legally transferable ones extremely expensive by limiting the supply. A few states have out right banned bazookas. I don't know if those laws have been challenged or not. https://www.npr.org/2022/04/01/1090178116/rocket-launchers-bazooka-grenade-california-middle-school#:~:text=Are these weapons legal%3F,therefore legal with proper registration.
  18. I've said repeatedly that raising the age of legal ownership of semi-autos for MALES is one of the only things we can actually do to reduce school shootings. But we need to understand that school shootings and legally acquired firearms represent a tiny portion of these statistics... And any gun laws passed today would take decades to affect gang related gun violence, assuming they ever can given what's already out there and the proliferation of 3d printed guns.
  19. I assume this is your source? https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2201761 When you Google this you see headline after headline leaving off the word "adolescent" (technically 10-19 year olds). 18 and 19 year olds are adults in our society. Some are functionally adults before then because they drop out of school or whatever. If you remove the 18 and 19 year olds or remove gang on gang violence from this data, I wonder how much it changes.
  20. Ima go out on a limb here: Canada effectively killing what was already heavily restricted (legal) handgun ownership this week probably reduced the chances of compromise from the right
  21. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_of_Columbia_v._Heller
  22. This is the way we should fight all our wars. Next up: China @ Taiwan
  23. Damn dude were y'all omicron early adopters? How the hell are you positive again?
