What did I say that is politically motivated? All I did was point out the latest facts.
"Legally purchased weapons, using bump stocks led to the largest mass killing in American history."


Nothing political about it.

Hope this helps.

you didn't say it was politically motivated. you tried (again) to turn the thread into a political discussion by mentioning "NRA fanatic idiots" which is what I quoted in the first place.

Do you agree, yesterday the NRA fans jumped to conclusions when they said the killings were with illegal fully automatic weapons? I'd rather not have to go back and quote everyone.....

Better order your bump stock ASAP gun fans! After this incident, no doubt they'll finally be illegal.


Nothing political about this comment.

Don't be so hard on yourself. If every mistake is a new one, you're making progress.

I'll introduce some machine learning to determine if a post is political and delete it if it's in the wrong forum. But probably not.

You already quoted both posts (from one guy) in the other thread. And QCB didn't even claim for sure that they were illegal weapons...most of the exchange was people making fun of you for not knowing what a bump stock was.

So yeah...I'd be interested in seeing which posts you thought said that.

Likely a bipod. They work fantastic..

I'm well aware what a bump stock is. What I did was make an error typing, calling it a bump stop.

Wrong.

My bad. Apparently you're not a Trump fan. OK. The selfish and always wanting more were correct and the most important part of the message.

I think there are good odds that fish is more charitable than you are.

Any predictions on what's his girlfriend going to say about the situation? I just cannot fathom "not knowing." To me, he is incredibly good at being extremely secretive, she's completely oblivious, or they never see each other and he was able to get away with the planning. Something like this just doesn't happen overnight.

There’s no way she didn’t know, in my opinion.

He gave her $100k.....to buy a house, in the Philippines? And she thought it meant he was dumping her? That's all fishy as hell.

Wondering if he couldn't bring himself to actually doing it then, or decided he needed more time to plan to be effective.
