  1. They run a typical coin precious metals scam. This is their website.. Note the endorsement from Bill O'Reilly. The first clue is they don't list purchase prices for coins, for small bars, the current daily price of gold and silver. The price is "call us". So they sell all kinds of "collectable and special minting" gold and silver coins. All of which sell at a premium over the face value of gold and silver. None of which will ever be collectable. This is the type of website that trades gold and silver at minimums over the current value. They will always have a constantly adjusted price over(for buying) called the premium and a price under the daily market price(if your selling). They typically sell US eagles, Canadian Maple leafs and South African Krugerrands. When a pigeon calls the idea is to sell them "collectable" precious metal coins at huge premiums over their actual precious metal value. This is the result from the BBB: "Hartford sales misrepresented the value of silver coins which resulted in a $**** loss. I contacted Hartford Gold to purchase silver bullion on 7/26/19. The invoice Hartford salesman, **** ******* insisted I purchase JFK Silver Half Dollars. I objected, but **** persistently insisted the JFK coin was a better purchase option and was worth a great deal more than silver bullion. This claim was totally false. Ultimately, at **** ********* insistance I invested $**** in JFK's, paying $10/half dollar. I later learned that these coins were worth $7.50/half dollar at the time of purchase. Clearly, **** ******* Hartford misrepresented the true value of these coins." Keep checking their site because rumor has it Donald trump will be endorsing it as at January 21, 2021.
  2. So the 13 death row inmates trump has ordered to be executed. Where does god and trump fit into that equation?

    Does that mean he will order his sycophants to take it?

    covid-19

    Godwins law is a red herring. IMO the trump Death Clock is reasonable approximation of his absence of leadership within the equation. Even today there are testimonials from acute care nurses that their patients refuse to believe that covid isn't fake news. As the patients take their last breaths and die. At this point in the pandemic there should be no doubts about the causation of the virus for deaths. Nor any doubt as to who from the US is responsible for the denial of it all. By kill more, I meant US deaths as Soviet Union, European deaths, Jews, etc. are obviously not US citizens.
  5. The potentially embarrassing questions arising from an anticipated examination for discovery and lack of merit of the action met the road.

    In that case America's MAGA man has now overseen a government whose population has suffered more deaths than in the entirety of WW2. Because US combat deaths are listed at 291,557. While the trump death clock sits at 174,683.“I think January is gonna be terrible, because you’re gonna have the Thanksgiving surge super-imposed upon the Christmas surge. So it’s entirely conceivable that January could be the worst,” Fauci There is the possibility that trump will kill more than Hitler by the time January 20th rolls around.
  7. Poor Donald, his ego is taking a beating first "sleepy Joe" beats him by the largest margin in history in the elections. Then he loses every case in the courts, except one. Now Time Person of the Year. For those who are uninitiated with trump's obsession on this subject: "On Wednesday, Time magazine named Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, 16, their Person of the Year, noting that she “represents a broader generational shift… where young people are demanding change urgently.” This news did not sit well with President Donald Trump, 73, who expressed his displeasure in his usual way, by angrily tweeting. “So ridiculous,” the president wrote in response to a congratulatory tweet to Thunberg. “Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill!” "Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named 'Man (Person) of the Year,' like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot," Trump tweeted on Friday evening. "I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!" Richard Stengel, a former Time editor, responded by tweeting: "Hate to tell you but that PROBABLY means you're NOT Person of the Year. They just wanted a photo shoot. But I'm sure you still have that fake TIME cover somewhere in storage."
  8. After about a dozen posts and another 1/2 dozen links you finally found a supporting fact for one of your representations. Assuming its a 4.9" bagel(.98 MOA). Congratulations. You still haven't admitted that the AR semi-auto action is 1/2 as accurate as equivalently priced factory bolt action rifles. Except you edited that representation from your posts. Never mind. "You seem to be making the claim that the AR is not a suitable hunting platform as it is not available in calibers powerful enough or capable of accuracy precise enough for the task. I think I have proven, beyond a doubt, that you are incorrect on both accounts." No I responded to You on those issues many posts ago: You said "Wrong on many levels. First, The .223 Remington is a rifle cartridge, originally developed in 1957 as a commercial hunting bullet for small mid-western varmints; with the first rifle chambered for it coming out in 1963. It has continued to be a popular civilian hunting cartridge. The 5.56 is a slightly modified .223 in fact they can be used interchangeably in most rifles. The.223 Wylde splits the difference. Second, the AR platform can accommodate a variety of calibers barrel length and optics by swapping out the upper receiver. From the modest .22lr to the massive .510 Winchester Short Magnum. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AR_platform_cartridges" I said in response; "Right. The .223 is second in popularity to the .22-250 for varmints. Varmints being gophers to coyotes. Its also the minimum caliber for deer in many US states although many define it as center-fire minimum." Even when I agree with you, you can't seem to keep track of the holes in your logic. It seems as if you're so set to refuse that you have made a mistake in syntax or fact. In premise or train of thought. That .... never mind. I noticed you never addressed the substance of your thread nor any link, nor the unsubstantiated references to Biden as a salesman. For guns or ammunition sales in 2020 or the 2020 election cycle. You reference three or more of your posts which have ALL stated that Covid and not Biden are responsible for increased gun sales. Covid and lockdowns responsible for back-orders and shortages in delivering guns and ammo. Wanna start?
  9. I guess it could sustain the attention of evangelical children. But there are other similar historical maps that even predate Adam! I even found one for Mark so he can better understand Islam.
  10. I'll tell you what. Don't call me ignorant and i won't call you ignorant. The AR is a short action cartridge. The 7.62 is a medium length cartridge and a 30-06. .300 WM is a long/standard length actions. An AR action cannot chamber a 7.62/ .308 length round and will certainly not chamber a .338 LM. You continue to mix custom and custom gunsmithed rifles with standard rifles in a failed attempt to make a point. You did this for a year in your climate change thread and you insist on doing it here. If a mil spec M4 is a standard AR and its not. Its designed to shoot 2 MOA with mil spec ammunition. Which is 10 inches at 500 yards. A bagel is about 5" wide. You yourself quoted a article to make you point about accuracy.Between semi auto and bolt action rifles. If you can't be bothered to read your own quoted articles. Can't endorse or support whats represented within them. Why do you quote them? Furthermore you prefaced your link with the statement "You simply don’t know what you are talking about." I wasn't going to respond to your ignorance and insults but then you went and did it once again. So I'll quote from the latest story you bring forth to support your thread. Quote from YOUR story" Gun and ammo sales in the U.S. hit a record high in 2020 — and the crazy year is not done yet. The record-setting highs in 2020, set for various reasons, namely COVID-19 and the lockdowns that followed, have led to a gun and ammo shortage. “We saw it coming earlier in the year,” said Gold Mine Pawn and Gun owner Price Cook. “Once the lockdown went into effect in March, it started. We were selling more guns and ammo to people who never brought guns before. It has just continued and continued and continued. Every time something happens, everyone comes in a buys a little more.” The lack of production due to lockdowns and social distancing protocols have made the shortage of guns and ammo worst." You can move your goalposts again and once again, but your supporting arguments have more holes than a Kansas gopher town.
  11. Well said and I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Yet the same story is repeated again and again.
  12. Yeah a friend of mine was a "operating engineer" i.e. a grader and dozer operator on pipelines. Massive overtime, they all lived in trailers and collected $100 a day living allowance(30 years ago). All Union jobs and after 3-4 months work would take the rest of the year off collecting unemployment benefits. New Chevy truck every year, etc. etc
  13. Engineers are shovel operators as well. They just do it with slide rules and pencils.
  14. Upper education is a driver of future economic growth. Price Of College Increasing Almost 8 Times Faster Than Wages 'There is a tremendous disconnect between the rising costs of education and the flattening of wages, which is only making it harder for graduates to make ends meet while paying back staggering amounts of student loans. So What Is the Impact Of This Disconnect? This combination of a boom in student loans and nearly static wage growth helps explain why so many young adults are drowning in student debt." "Germany is the polar opposite to the United States in terms of costs of higher education. Germany’s higher education system is entirely publicly funded and its 2.4 million students pay absolutely nothing in tuition fees. Tuition fees in Germany were originally abolished in 1971, though they made a brief comeback from 2006 to 2014, where they averaged at €500 ($630 USD). But due to massive unpopularity, they were once again abolished." MAGA and trump are drivers of future economic stupidity!

    Meanwhile in the NFL: "A half hour prior to Tuesday night’s kickoff in Baltimore, the Ravens wide receiver tweeted that he was pulled from pregame warmups and had received a positive COVID-19 test." This is tonight's game The game goes on because... well in the NFL the game must go on!

    Spreading BS and spreading covid, yep thats the trump WH.
  17. I understand that, but as Wendy and Ken say W/O the court of public opinion looking down on Dike, the lady of justice. The evidence of victims never makes it to the scales.
  18. "In 2016, when General Yeager was asked on Twitter what made him want to become a pilot, the reply was infused with cheeky levity: “I was in maintenance, saw pilots had beautiful girls on their arms, didn’t have dirty hands, so I applied.”... He flew P-51 Mustang fighters in the European theater during World War II, and in March 1944, on his eighth mission, he was shot down over France by a German fighter plane and parachuted into woods with leg and head wounds. But he was hidden by members of the French underground, made it to neutral Spain by climbing the snowy Pyrenees, carrying a severely wounded flier with him, and returned to his base in England.... On Oct. 12, 1944, leading three fighter squadrons escorting bombers over Bremen, he downed five German planes, becoming an ace in a day. In November, he shot down another four planes in one day.... He was chosen over more senior pilots to fly the Bell X-1 in a quest to break the sound barrier, and when he set out to do it, he could barely move, having broken two ribs a couple of nights earlier when he crashed into a fence while racing with his wife on horseback in the desert.... He commanded a fighter wing during the Vietnam War while holding the rank of colonel. He flew 127 missions, mainly piloting Martin B-57 light bombers' Legend.
  19. Shit, just cancel it by EO. Use the same language to investigate Barr, the trump family and trump in a new special council investigation. Nothing that Barr has ever touched in his entire time as a trump hack was done in the interests of law. "Beyond that one case, however, it has never been clear what exactly the Durham investigation is looking at. Many of the key figures in the Russia probe have never even been contacted. And the exhaustive inspector general’s report on the Crossfire Hurricane probe does not give rise, beyond Clinesmith’s case, to implications of criminal conduct." Then Barr, Durham can climb aboard their boats and get back to real fishing.
  20. Of course its not chess. trump can't remember the rules of checkers. Its all about the money. He's had a taste of Washington money, swamp money where you collect millions for doing nothing but peddle worthless claims and lies. Then wait for tax free money to pour in. The GOP has no backbone but the odd person stood up and called him out. In his mind thats treason. In his party everyone says yes, pays homage and sends in buckets of cash. He gets rallies where every lie and threat is cheered.
  21. Juan Williams is a FOX media reporter. This story is the latest from The Hill so no paywall. ' "But what if this backstabbing among Republicans makes sense to Trump? What if Trump’s lie that the election was stolen is fatal to the GOP but gives him new life with an infusion of money from the hard-right conspiracy crowd, the most gullible Republicans? Then there is a method to the madness. Here’s the proof that Trump may be on to something." Williams never comes right out to a end game of all this trump maneuvering. “Save America.” is trumps new PAC that has raised over $127 million that trump can spend anyway he wants. What if he is trying to kill the GOP and start a new trump branded political party? Split the trump Save America party off while cannibalizing the GOP at the same time. If he does everything possible to damage GOP senators in Georgia. He can bide his time till midterms, all while peddling more conspiracy theories. Its a merry Christmas in Moscow, Tehran and Pyongyang.
  22. Well clearly the Marines are a bunch of idiots. The army fools. From your story: "rifles from Ruger, Mossberg, Tikka, Savage and others, and they all produced groups between 0.3 and 0.5 inches at 100 yards using factory match ammunition. None were custom or cost more than $2,000, and yet they could hold 1 MOA out to 1,300 yards or even a mile with proper ammunition." from your story yet "With a capable shooter, many factory ARs will hold the “1 inch at 100 yards” standard using match-grade ammunition. " So 1/2 as accurate for the same cost and no gunsmithing. The British special forces and the Russian ones using the same bolt rifle!. Dummies! You should tell David Tubb and Randy Wise that they are using the wrong actions. "2019 NRA ELR Nationals at Camp Atterbury, there were many impressive displays of Extreme Long Range marksmanship, but none better than Randy Wise’s remarkable three-shot string at 2158 yards that set a new ELR Central world record. Randy made a COLD BORE HIT and two follow-up hits on a steel target at 2158 yards. Remarkably, Randy set the new ELR record using a stock Savage action and Savage factory barrel chambered for the .338 Lapua Magnum cartridge." I don't think they have chambered the AR in .338 LM?
  23. Brents admitted to owning a Ruger RPR before Which is Ruger's long range and precision, bolt action rifle. Yet he wants the naive to believe the aforementioned semi-autos are also as accurate. They are not in the same class. Wants the naive to believe that semi-autos are good guns for hunting when bolt action rifles are likely 85% or better, the weapon of choice for hunting in America. Brent doesn't choose to cite the use of Remington's 742, 7400, semi auto hunting rifles. He cites the AR-15 and derivatives of it. The DPMS isn't available in 30-06, 7mm mag, .300 WM and other popular hunting calibers. Instead the restrictions of those actions and the calipers that they will function with. Are all acceptable as long as they take 20-30 round mags.
