Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Cut a hole in the tennis ball, stick it on the muzzle of your AR-15 and call it a silencer. Bet you could smuggle in a number of tennis balls that way
The ATF would like to disagree and kill your dog
What if my dog is my silencer?
As long as you've accounted for point-of-impact shift and paid your $200 tax, you're good to go.
No, I will not and this Davey Crockett tactical nuke in my home museum agrees.
This is a Wasteland 2 joke I do not have a tactical nuke, a silencer, or even a working gun. I do have a 100 plus year old broken revolver though.
Oh! Send pics!
Of the busted revolver?
Yes, please.
Here it is though I dont actually know the age just that the design is about a hundred years old.
It's got a beauty all its own. Looks like it vould use some love, though.
Im just iffy about removing the rust, but ive actually taken it apart and cleaned it up over the years. I figure ill use it as a prop for some New Vegas cosplay or soemthing, the cylinder doesnt rotate anymore but the hammer does go back and makes a real satisfying click when I pull the trigger. Also it no longer has a firing pin.
Also revolver internals are fucking abominable.
Love a shot at gunsmithing that, but yeah, revolver internals, yuck.
Never block your muzzle or you risk a "Bugs Bunny".
