Firing scumbags is good business. You can keep your free speech, just not your job working for me. Not that I would hire you in the first place.

Correct.  But Gutter couldnt resist his BIG gotcha moment.  

Especially if they are of minimal value to my company.

Nope. Just wondering why people can be an @sshole in any thread they please. But in the one they were told to be respectful, your schtick doesn't need to be in this one. Here they come making jokes.

Absolute disgusting. He probably doesn't even realize how sick in the head he is. It just comes natural to him now.

No Ron is right.  Better option for the left is to just kill them I guess.

Killing them=Good for democracy

I’d be happy if our Prez did the same thing. Instead we get more baiting and shittalking. Even if you have to use AI just be a normal human for 5 minutes for the country

[SaintsInDome2006 466]

I have no problem with a president or governor or mayor or councilman or any public official working with their staff to craft an appropriate press release. In fact it’s the right way to do things. On occasion even El Jefe Naranja does it.

Netanyahu and the official x account for the state of Israel have now made posts about Kirk.  Which is kinda weird, one to be making it about them considering we don’t know the shooter’s motive, but also since if my search is accurate, it looks like Kirk hadn’t used the word Israel on x since August 14th.   He posted a ton about it in June then even in July usually at least once a week.

Was Kirk joining the growing number of Republicans starting to question Israel?

Congrats, I knew you could find a way to bring your hatred for Israel into this.

There is rhetoric on both sides.  

But the numbers that turn to violence for "their cause" is fairly lopsided.  

Sorta like crime.  Numbers pretty heavily lopsided there as well.  

From the Brookings Institute earlier this year:

Quote

• A third of participants at the People’s March (33%) reported that they believed that “because things have gotten so far off track, Americans may have to resort to violence in order to save our country.”

https://www.brookings.edu/articles/what-we-learned-from-the-peoples-march-about-attitudes-toward-political-violence/

Granted, the people who participate in such a march are on the more extreme side.  But there is a growing belief among young people especially that violence is an acceptable response for what they perceive as hate speech.

I'd rather my politicians not have to poll staffers on what they should be thinking and feeling that will sit best with the electorate.

Not as bad as assassinating, or attempting assassinations.

But as we have seen if it hurts the bottom line it is bye..bye.

Part of the problem with this notion, besides the obvious, is WHAT the younger generation considers to be "hate speech."

Naw,  My BIL works for the FBI always told me, If you get any type of death threat or bomb threat, you are safe,  

The people who actually do it never give warnings.

That's why I said "what they perceive".  We've created a generation of soft people who would prefer censorship of speech that they don't like, vs. free speech and civil discourse.  

[supermike80 2,012]

I'm of course tired of the left and right extreme opinions.....And that's gonna last a while.

It's a single shot, bolt action .410 shotgun.  Was my first gun ever and I still have it.  Use to squirrel and rabbit hunt with it.  Very cool gun.

okay, let me get a few out of the way.  In order to put a shell in do you have to the barrel down from the stock?  If so and I suspect that, 

then you have a single shot .410 shotgun.  Not bolt action.

Lol. Like magas can even name more than one HBCU. 

And as if this would be the response to Kirk. 

This is the same energy as the noose hoaxes.

Question…does yours actually eject the empty shell when you rack the bolt?  Mine doesn’t, you have to pick it out the barrel manually. It’s old and I’m probably the 3rd owner, and so I always imagined it was supposed to eject by design.

I assume on yours you have to the stock down to expose the barrel opening to inject a shotgun shell and then you the barrel & stock together?  Thus ready to fire away.

It's 100% a bolt action.  I'll try to look and see what model it is when I get home.

Quote

Hundreds gathered at the Idaho State Capitol in Boise for a candlelight vigil honoring conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was fatally shot earlier that day. The peaceful event erupted into violence when Terry Wilson, a local Black Lives Matter activist, rode through the crowd on a scooter shouting obscenities, leading to a physical confrontation. Police quickly intervened, arresting one person, with no serious injuries reported. The clash highlighted deep national divisions over Kirk's death and ongoing societal tensions, as reflected in heated social media reactions.

True. He’s someone political junkies would know, most of America has (had) no clue. He was very important to the win in 2024.

No.  I’m very familiar with what single shot, double barrel, and over/unders are and their hinged breaking action.  I have several.  I have a single shot bolt action .410.  Just like this.
