You can buy guns and ammo at a lot of Walmart stores. Walmart kinda markets itself as a store that sells everything. Pick up a rifle with the eggs and milk, as you do.

il_serpente Posted November 24, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 24, 2022 13 hours ago, It's Your Round said: Not from this year, but according to the CDC: “In 2020, the most recent year for which complete data is available, 45,222 people died from gun-related injuries in the U.S., according to the CDC. That figure includes gun murders and gun suicides, along with three other, less common types of gun-related deaths tracked by the CDC”. More people than can safely fit inside Villa Park Linky Yes, but we get to have fun shooting the crap out of tin cans and stuff with semi-automatic rifles on our back 40, so it's all worth it. Oh, and we get to carry our semi-automatics to Starbucks and intimidate voters at drop boxes, too. Small sacrifices and all. And we know if we somehow become victims, we'll be on the receiving end of lots of prayers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably remembering this completely wrong (I'm in Canada, not the States), but weren't they saying a few years ago that they getting out of a lot of ammunition, handgun and "modern sporting" semi-auto sales? I remember reading something about them stopping the sale of "semi-auto ammunition" (spoiler, there's no such thing). Wondered if it was all PR spin. To be honest assumed it was but hoped for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just waiting for people to say 'the answer is to give shop staff more guns' when they already probably had a whole arsenal available to them. As for the state of that guy's Dad, how depressing that there are probably millions of Americans like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went into a retail park / Home Depot, just to have a break and look around. In the queue front of us 4/5 people had open carry pistols.... Imagine needing to take your gun to B&Q.

Chindie Posted November 24, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted November 24, 2022 Oh, I dunno, can you blame someone who made a living punching things, including his partner apparently, and had no relationship with his son, prioritising his son not liking cock over his son being a mass murderer?

AndyM3000 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 I'm sure the world wasn't this messed up 5-7 years ago, the amount of crazy/stupid people seem to be rapidly rising. Dread to think what it will be like in 10 years time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 What you have to ask yourself if carrying 1 gun enough? If the bad guys have one gun then you should ideally have 2 guns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
