That first block might go ok, but then....
What exactly does the EPA need with a 300 mm/12 inch cannon? I think this is taking the whole 'EPA SWAT Team' thing a bit too far.
Either that or the media is once again demonstrating their in depth knowledge of firearms.
Yeah, maybe it is to put down an Indian uprising caused by the EPA’s spill?
President Cruz should require them to turn the weapons over to a branch of the Armed Forces, or alternatively to sell them en masse to the public at large. The largest gun “buy back” in history.
Any questions America?
Stay safe my fellow Americans! Keep your powder dry and never put all your eggs in one basket!
Because you need to kill people who threaten mosquito habitats! /s
I’ve often heard that if you’re not paranoid, it’s because you don’t know what’s going on.
So, I’m paranoid, and I still don’’t know what’s going on.
The biggest I saw was the M110 8” but I thought we got rid of those a long time ago.
“Thatâs roughly 12 inches.”
Wow. That’s one heavy high-capacity mag.
Why do you think?
100,000 total?
Quickly reduced through attrition, if the need ever arises.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance. - list of grievances; Declaration
They bought them to shoo away the birds from the windmills.
They need True Believers, not too bright, willing to throw themselves onto a grenade for Big Brother. 200 hundred tree huggers ain't gonna cut it.
Obama and the Social Justice Warriors can't do it themselves, they don't have the skill sets. They can't trust the US military to suppress the Redneck Bigots. That whole Constitution and 'preserve, protect and defend' oath gets in the way of a True Communist Utopia.
The only option is to build a citizen Army, out of bits like the Department of Education SWAT team, BLM goons, armed Forest Rangers, union thugs.
‘They only spent enough for an oversized company. Perhaps 200. 100,000 corrupt Outer Party members does not an army make.’
you made a number of statements that hit the target.
After-action reports from the Bundy Ranch incident showed that the feds needed to recruit federal volunteers to dress in Rambo gear who were culled from a half-dozen different agencies across four states.
“Obama and the Social Justice Warriors can’t do it themselves, they don’t have the skill sets.”
Bingo! The BLM clown who commanded the sacrificial Rambo lambs at Bundy led them straight into a kill zone; they were sitting ducks.
“The only option is to build a citizen Army, out of bits like the Department of Education SWAT team, BLM goons, armed Forest Rangers, union thugs.”
Spot on. The vast majority of the federal bureaucratic clogs in the fascist machine are fat, small IQ egoists who are more interested in stuffing their faces and collecting bloated federal paychecks. They’ll have no desire to die on a hilltop for the glory of King Obuma.
Nope. We had a few cruisers in WWII with 12-inch guns. The last one was the Mk 8. From the Wiki article:
The Mark 8 weighed 121,856 pounds (55,273 kg) including the breech and was capable of an average rate of fire of 2.4 - 3 rounds a minute. It could throw a 1,140 lb. (517.093 kg) Mark 18 armor piercing shell 38,573 yards (35,271 meters) at an elevation of 45 degrees
I use mine to hold up liquor stores. No, not rob them, hold them up. ;-)
“They have 300mm guns? I guess they will be doing some long range raiding?”
I noticed that, too. That’s nearly a 12-inch shell! Maybe they meant 30mm.
30mm is still large projectile. The term small arms was once explained to me as being under 20mm when I was in the Army.
CNN had an article about depression photos, over the weekend. It pointed out that Obama's Depression only hit 7% unemployment, while back when it was 30%. They are still pushing the Big Lie.
Forgot to ping you.
