@ScottyTheMenace @CRTC_Nichols @TXGunRights Charles believes that we are all “degenerates” and “cowards” for carrying concealed, he believes open carry is the only gentlemanly way. He has a lot of us 2A accounts blocked for this reason.

@CRTC_Nichols @TXGunRights congrats smearing every concealed carrier with the same brush pompous ass.

Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.

@hurrihottie @thecrussian @Breaking911 Nobody needs an AR, they need at least 2.

@thecrussian @Breaking911 All for guns…no one needs an AR

BREAKING: A gunman opened fire on a busy street in Cambridge, Massachusetts, injuring one person before police shot the suspect.

@NotoriousVij @Ja_Shoe_Ah @gregcello Except New Hampshire is not a blue state. They vote for Democrats in federal elections, but their state politics is dominated by their libertarian-leaning Republicans. It also has the least strict gun laws in America.

@Ja_Shoe_Ah @gregcello Being blue, yep

that’s weird, I thought MA banned AR-15 style weapons in 2024 and large capacity mags back in 1994?

@GarlicDomestic @adfelly @HagenSnellBB Koufax pitched in an era where it was common for starters to pitch on short rest and the best guys did it 10+ times in a season. Koufax made 40+ starts 3 times, he was also used out of the pen a ton, over 80 games in relief. It’s not fair to compare games pitched between the two

@adfelly @HagenSnellBB I immediately regret sending this lol 397 from Koufax in a short career. Regardless lol deform deserves it

Jacob deGrom ERA by year: 2.69 2.54 3.04 3.53 1.70 2.43 2.38 1.08 3.08 2.67 1.69 2.97 2.62 2.57 career ERA in 1584.1 IP 🐐

@S3Plan7 @adfelly @Andy_Victory07 @HagenSnellBB He should’ve won the Cy Young in 2020, by every metric except ERA his season was better than Bauers, against better competition. If he wins that award, we’re talking about a 3 peat and he’d be a guaranteed HOFer.

@adfelly @Andy_Victory07 @HagenSnellBB Is the magic number for serious consideration 60 WAR? He’s at 49. On pace for 5 more this year along that gets him to 54. I think he can get it with 3 pretty good years. Especially if he wins another CY (unlikely but Skubal is hurt)

@ArmedJ0y @MorosKostas It’s hard to do that when NJs ban which predated the 94 ban used the term “assault firearms” and was meant as a platform ban and not a features ban. The features part was invented by an attorney general letter, which attempted to save a clause that a court ruled was vague.

@MorosKostas I wish they split it up between 94-style bans (feature bans) and stuff like GOSAFE and straight semi-auto or named gun bans. Because everyone blurs them together.

This is definitely an interesting discussion. I am a frequent critic of euphemistic names like "modern sporting rifle," because I think it implies we are ashamed of what these firearms are, which is the prevailing combat arms of the time. They are absolutely great for sport, sure, but there is nothing wrong with conceding they are designed for combat, because that is what the Second Amendment historically protects most of all. But I think my friend Zach may be going a bit too far in the other direction. Yes, Gun Digest did some publications decades ago that used the term "assault weapon," but that doesn't mean they were going with some accepted term in doing so. I suspect it's just a cool-sounding term to use for cool-looking guns, so they went with it. There is no real technical definition presented (I know because I have a copy of one of these same books, it is a fun time capsule). My understanding has always been that while "assault rifle" has a technical definition (select-fire capability) separate from what antigun states define it as, "assault weapon" does not, especially in the way gun-banning states use it. They define it as any semiauto firearm with particular features, which can vary state to state. Others define it by particular models of firearm. Others do a combination of both. I don't really object to Zach's more simplistic definition of "these are firearms used for assault, so they are assault weapons." But that doesn't really square with how the term is used today. You can use typically unbanned pistols for assault, or pump shotguns, or semiauto rifles without the banned evil features (e.g. mini 14 ranch style rifle). I think it's still correct to say the term is more political than real, unlike the term "assault rifle."

@TexansCommenter @JumpyGhostFaceE Joe Schoen said on day 2 that they viewed Colton Hood was the #1 player remaining on their board going into Day 2. Even if they liked McDonald, I doubt the social team would release a clip that makes their GM look like a liar.

@JumpyGhostFaceE Ha fair. I’m waiting on next vid they drop to see if they wanted kmac on there

The New York Giants got both of their guys in the first round in Arvell Reese & Francis Mauigoa after they were surprised by the Tennessee Titans selecting Carnell Tate at 4 and the Cleveland Browns selecting Spencer Fano at 9.

@iAmKiiNGDReW @TexansCommenter A lot of people with sources in the building said they liked Downs and that he was top 5 on their board. Supposedly they had Reese at 1 and Mauigoa at 4. And now from this video we know they had Love at 2, if the other reports are right that leaves either Tyson or Styles at 3.

@TexansCommenter Watching this i wonder how giants draft board looked … were was Caleb downs on this if he was even one of the board at all

@JoshuaTookes Idc, I’m counting Sally Carrera.

Goodnight #mothersday

@hollowasme @ArmedJ0y Okay but Cock Compensator 2000 lowkey slaps

@ArmedJ0y We shouldn't care if it's called a rapid life deceleration device, a dehumanifier, or the cock compensator 2000. It's our right to own it (inherently not because of magic paper) and we should be immune to being shamed about it.

I will keep preaching this until I'm blue in the face but the 94 assault weapons ban was anti-gunners just pointing at these and saying "we want to ban those, yeah those things that you call that" It's a made up term in the sense that most things are but it's not some spooky language psyop bullshit or whatever cringe language games the NRA played creating this stupid fuddlore. Thinking calling them "sporting weapons" after decades of marketing like this would magically spare them from regulation (it didn't, and hasn't)

@Dianexis Grok thought you were talking about yourself when you said “her” because even it thinks you’re a smol latina.

thank you Grok this is absolute peak

@MorosKostas While I appreciate the clarity, I feel like this question might confuse some people. At least with the old system you kinda knew for 99% of people who aren’t prohibited the first answer is yes and all the other ones are no.

I really, really like how the form makes clear buying guns as a gift is totally fine. That's long been a point of confusion for both buyers and dealers.

The new Draft form 4473 is posted: atf.gov/media/29576/do…

@EdDinIL @MorosKostas I haven’t read the opinion but I’m sure the wording of it on the ballot “to restore fairness” has to have also been a factor considering that Virginia law requires ballot measures to use politically neutral language.

@MorosKostas The vote wasn't overturned because it was gerrymandering. It was overturned because of the way they went about rushing the vote. SCOVA described the pathway that needs to be taken to do it, and I hope like hell the people in Virginia stand up to block it when they try again.

Gerrymandering a purple state is a fundamentally different beast. Dems did gerrymander other states like CA just fine.

@chandler5554 @lyagonalcutters What makes this particularly infuriating is that if they got Javy out at any point before he touched first base, that run wouldn’t have counted. The first baseman’s worst fuckup was not chasing Javy, it was throwing the ball to the catcher.

@lyagonalcutters this is what happens if you try to tag x.com/Cubs/status/13…

TAG THE RUNNER??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!??!?!?!!??!!??!?!?!?!?!?!?

@crunkilton22 @KasperStats 4-8 PM Super Bowl should be illegal.

@KasperStats Who’s complaining about morning baseball?!?! When sports start at 4pm out here, I feel like even that’s way too late lol West coast best coast for sports.

this is 12:35pm if you live in a real timezone

@KasperStats @cnkirch1215 Bro and the Super Bowl starting at 4:00 and being over at 8:00? That’s so weird.

@cnkirch1215 That is kinda awesome! I don't think I could ever get used to Sunday Night Football starting at 5:15pm though, that's crazy early. Especially since if you live in LA, 4:30-8:30 are already blocked off on your evening calendar for spending-time-in-traffic...

@mshizzle05 @stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD Intentional Walk is a separate stat so that one I get. But a pitch clock violation would just result in a fourth ball and goes in the box score as just a normal walk.

@stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD Hmmm seems like he got them all. Intentional walk? Pitcher clock violation with 3 balls? I suppose those are both just walks?

Can you name all 10 ways to reach 1st Base? @StoolBaseball

@jbraun00 @SpencerrGreene @stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD Jean Segura is an MLB player. Jean Segura did this in an MLB game in 2013.

@SpencerrGreene @stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD I don’t know what that means.

@wizardofohio @stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD That is a dropped third strike, which he said.

@stoolgambling @StoolBaseball @barstoolWSD In the scenario where the catcher drops the third strike, the batter may attempt to run to first base. If they reach safely (first base empty, or two outs), they are safe. It goes in the books as a strikeout but the batter is safe at first.

@joeroganhq The economic illiteracy is astounding. This is the type of person writing our laws. It’s the most basic economics: Iran not exporting oil creates scarcity in the global market. There is increased demand for oil from the places we’re getting it, that’s what makes the price go up.

Tim Burchett tells Joe Rogan: "We get zero oil from Iran. Zero. Yet the price is going through the roof... because it can... I just think it’s a racket. The oil companies, they’ll shake that money tree. They know how to do it on both sides of the aisle."
