>Can make gunpowder easily at home as well.
Yeah, fireworks of all types are everywhere.
Nothing in the news after the “he’s in severe condition” update.
Not sorry to inform libs that gunpowder isn’t even required to make a homemade gun work. Think of a potato cannon.
Re: 120 - Sort of non-sensual. Gun violence is exceedingly rare.
There are some .45 cal airguns that shoot 500+fps easily. Have to look around for them, but they’re legal and no background check. Lethal if hit in the chest/head.
Re: 161 - my stepdaughter (working in Setagaya today) said this info is now being reported in news.
And Europe had a hell of a lot of assasinations in the work up to WWI.
Peasants vs landowners etc etc...
Just ask Scalise where this is all going here.
Re: 184 - LOL - and non-sensical also!
It looks like a fully choked blunderbuss.
Appears to be battery operated. Perhaps industrial charges that are similar in size to a shotgun shell, filled with black powder (lots of smoke in the photos) and electrically fired. With a bunch of ball bearings packed inside the pipes.
Prayers for Abe and his family.
They were doing CPR on the scene, not sure alive is the correct term at this point. I think it’s like the NYPD rules, no police officer dies at the scene, they always pass at the ER. They are just trying to get everyone on the same script before they make the official announcement.
I have a friend that was a volunteer firefighter and he told of the time the wife found her husband dead in bed and called 911. He and another guy were first on scene.
The man was blue and cold, but they pulled him off the bed onto the floor and did CPR until the aid-car with the medics came and they continued CPR and oxygen as they left the house.
“Blue and cold - wasn’t he dead?”
“Of course he was, probably for hours, but our policy is to let the medics or the doctors make the declaration. Plus, then we don’t have to deal with telling the grieving family member!”
Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has died, according to Japan’s national broadcaster.
I can’t even really be angry anymore after the last few months. I think it’s probably worse than the 60s overall.
Just a nightmare world.
Link at post 66 confirms his death. My prayers go out to his family, friends, and the Japanese people.
Plus this one was a handmade weapon. The left will now want to ban hands.
Probably won’t result in any weapons issue, but this bastard needs to hang.
From what I hear when the Japs give you the DP, they don’t give a date. So every day they come in and take you out to wash. But it could be the end as well.
The USA needs this kind of thing badly. The buffalo one and crimo need to die this way.
41 years old....looks like a younger guy.....?
....and the Putler Boys & Girls rush in to somehow, someway, blame Ukraine.
Someone ship these people back to RuSSia please.
