U.S. — In one of the most remarkable miracles in human history, the thousands of bump stocks that went missing seven years ago in boating accidents all simultaneously washed ashore and have been reunited with their owners.
"Wow, my bump stock washed ashore! And just a day after the Supreme Court ruling overturning the ban!" said local man Omar Gonzales. "What's even crazier, my neighbor Bill also lost his in a boating accident in 2017, and his bump stock also washed ashore this morning. It's a miracle!"
Across the nation, tens of thousands of Americans reported similar shocking experiences. "It's the darndest thing," said local man John Robinson. "Every single one of my buddies at the gun club said their bump stock washed ashore today, still in great condition. What kind of natural phenomenon does that? It's almost as weird as when everyone I knew lost their bump stocks in boating accidents back in 2017. What an amazing coincidence."
At publishing time, experts had warned that Biden's attempt to ban AR-15s could lead to another horrific epidemic of boating accidents.
Love this!
Something tells me the writers at the Babylon Bee read Free Republic.
Blockheads for bump stocks!
Now why would you say that? :)
"It's the darndest thing," said local man John Robinson.
And just like that.....
Oh that Bee. :0)
At least they didn't say "Jim Thompson". That would have been a blast from the past. ;-)
When mine washed ashore it showed no signs of immersion in water for 4 years. No algae, no slime, no barnacles, and the price tag was there just like new. The old pre Biden Inflation price that is. Hell, I could sell it tomorrow and make a handsome profit.
However, the Gun Gods whispered in my ear and said, “if you do that!” “The wrath of bad ballistics, strong crosswinds, bad primers, fouled barrels, drizzling rain with sleet on hunting days and cancerous rust shall descend on you and your weapons as you deserve none if you sell the sacred item.” The Gun Gods also mentioned that at precisely one minute past the end of hunting season the most magnificent buck that ever walked the earth will present itself against the fading light of near dusk a mere 75 yards away and my hunting partner is the game warden. The Gun Gods are kind to kindred souls but their punishment for transgressions will rend one’s soul.
You don’t mess with the Gun Gods. Strangely, something like that appears to be happening with pistol braces too. It’s a miracle!
I think a few might have doubled as fishing bobbers and trap markers for an awhile.
This is perfect. There is nothing more to add.
Another Freeper mentioned that the Babylon Bee may hang out on Free Republic looking for conservative humor. I do not doubt that. Oddly over the years I had posts that I saw later by conservative commentators that were almost identical to my post or posts of other Freepers. When I see things like that, it makes me smile.
I suspect Brit Hume or one of his staff are Free Republic lurkers. Brit was the first national media person to break the story of the National Guard phony papers on Bush W relative to his service as a pilot in the Guard. Freeper “Buckhead” is the one that busted them.
Brit closed by saying, “Credit where Credit is due” and showed Free Republics Logo. Odd is it not that with all the staff and “experts” CBS had they did not realize it was a forgery. Actually, they wanted it to be true so did not give the story due diligence. It cost Dan Rather his job. :)
Hahahaha!

I do always hope my comments get plagiarized.
In a certain sense we’re all one big family.
The specific gravity of water is 1. With the metal in the pistol brace plus the plastic it will have a specific gravity greater than 1. They should be firmly on the bottom of the lake or sea where they were lost. Yet they float to the surface unscathed in new conditions to the exact same spot they were lost and by chance the owner is always there. LOL
THE GUN GODS ARE GOOD!
Amazing! All those bumpstocks hopping out of the water like dolphins at Sea World.
