    My Mossberg autoloader will hold 9+1 shells with the spacer removed from the magazine. 10 #9's is very neighborhood friendly home defense. Bullets travel too far and penetrate walls too well for my taste.

    Please, I don't need to explain to you, you know what's going on. Plus you'd just continue to pretend I was making shit up. Anyway...

    What's your "trusted" news source telling you today about the Durham findings?

    Never heard of the guy. Just remember, far right=far left=trouble. Kinda why they're often referred to as "extremists". Typically no brain, just follow the lead lemming.

    On one hand you claim I know what's going on and on the other you claim I'm "about 25% knowledgeable in the complex issue sphere, at best."

    I don't understand why you can't clarify what you mean by propaganda or what you define as a legacy news source is, nor can I understand why you won't provide me with a quote from a legacy source that illustrates they are spreading falsehoods about guns.

    Why would I claim you are making stuff up if you provide your sources?
    I may find fault with your sources, or not, but if you provide quotes and sources, then you're not making stuff up.

    Why are you trying to derail this conversation with the Durham Report?
    If you wish to discuss it start a new thread on that subject, meanwhile we can discuss guns in this thread.

    I don't blame you. The one sided narratives are crumbling. We can see it with firearms treatment as well as other issues. It's all connected in the aspect of brainwashing the audience. The conflict excites people. Honesty is not a revered trait in the "news" entertainment industry. You can't trust what you hear regarding guns or anything.

    I would not and cannot believe anything on Fox " news ". Their whole purpose is to bullshit the American people with partisan lies. I understand that you and several others on the forums get your " news " from Murdoch's BS factory, which has shown that they are nothing but a right wing arm of the republican party. Now--accuse me of TDS , or your favorite--CD.

    Congress has passed many gun laws in the last 90 years. Republican presidents like George HW Bush have signed them into law. Reagan signed into law the search the car and hold them for 78 hours based on just suspicion laws. Now my concern is this: Does congress have a duty to enact new gun laws before a new civil war here where the right extremists start using guns just because they don't like the outcome of an election? We have laws which prevent a guy from buying a gun after a domestic violence conviction. Should we have new laws which prevent right wing extremists from owning a gun before they commit political violence? The supreme court has already moved the police authority bar from probable cause to reasonable suspicion for cases where they contact a suspect. Why can't we have them go after these gun crazies who have a mental block during elections?

    To add to my post 11283: If this Durham report turns out to actually be true---then indict the shit out of whomever deserves it. Still does not make trump a decent human being. Still a consummate liar and a wannabe dictator.

    And the timing of this report is only drawing attention away from the obvious investigations going on about Trump and his shenanigans. If they spied on his campaign they damn sure had good reason to- who gives a damn 6 years later? I didn’t give a damn about it then. None of that justifies the abortion and dysfunction he’s created while he was in the White House.

    The Durham thingy was and is being addressed in the Trump thread.
    This is a gun thread, please stay on topic people.

    My opinion above is supported by today's news. Just three hours ago the web news I get says a man tried to kill or assassinate a candidate who is running for office in Kentucky. The candidate is a Democrat. If these Republican extremists think they have a right to kill Democrats during an election, then they should be disarmed.

    I hope those who believe the 2nd amendment was written to allow the overthrow of the united States government are watching the current events in Ukraine.

    The Ukraine government is handing out guns and weapons to civilians and civilian militias to defend their government, not overthrow it.

    Unlike the U.S. where many citizens believe they should be allowed to own weapons to kill their own elected representatives the Ukrainian citizens are using weapons to defend their officials, just as Washington and the Founding Fathers intended as militias were needed as we had no standing army and later they were used to support the standing army, not fight it.
