our friends at Mother Jones

[ratfortman]

They sent a reporter in to do an AK47 build, then shoot it, then destroy it. Notice the introduction describing the despicable uses for such a weapon?

Gun build parties a growing trend in America

Wow, what a pack of lies!

Spin spin spin............lie lie lie.

Spin spin spin............lie lie lie.

And the author commits at least a few felonies too

This happened in California so:

FELONY #1: Owning a newly build rifle with a pistol grip!
FELONY #2: At 1:20 you can clearly see that the magazine lock is mounted too far back, allowing the magazine to be detached without the use of a tool. (Sometimes known as the "bullet button")
FELONY #3: You perform an improper disposal of the gun and leave it for the garbage collector. By CA law, that’s an illegal transfer since he didn’t go through an FFL.​

I feel kinda mentally drained after watching that.

The comments were overwhelmingly positive. So that's good.

I doubt that the so-called writer of the piece gives a crap about their readers...

 

[evsnova74]

Stories like that always **** me off so much, but it's such a relief to see a comments section like that afterwards...

Brian Schatz has probably already begun choosing a different career path.

Can imaging the headline.....


Former writer fails as film star in illegal barnyard porn, kills himself.
Family asks that memorial donations be made to PETA.

And Mother Jones was last relevant in what year?

Or was it ever relevant?

 

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

Oh, sure it was. It really was. Back in nineteen seventy something.

Mother Jones is the illegitimate child of Saul Alinsky and Jane Fonda. Street cred = zero, unless you are a left wing hippie peace freak who is so stoned that you can't tell the difference between God and Satan, or who you identify with and promote.

Yeah. I thought it had died about the time "mood rings" were all the rage......
