  • That’s your takeaway with somebody asking if something is exaggerated or not?

    So far all you’ve done is respond to someone who is basically asking about sources and tell them that they are wrong for asking and then respond to me with a false equivalency. What exactly are you contributing here? You haven’t added anything other than saying everyone is wrong not providing any information and then acting combative.

    You could have said why they are wrong, but you don’t want to. You want to misrepresent what I said entirely so I don’t know apparently you don’t want to read either

    A lot of those things have expiration dates.

    Medicine loses potency or goes bad over time. Ammo can get moisture in it or just become unreliable over time. The lining in food and drink containers from most things in the grocery store will usually break down or begin to in about a year and start to leach into the food. Fuel to power any generator will go bad in six months, unless you use additives for long storage and those can cause an engine to be running lean or richer than it should be. Guns need replacement parts and won’t typically work forever with some TLC and the ability to fabricate or just have parts stockpiled

    Basically most accelerationist plans for the apocalypse are not backed up by any sustainability. Things like ethanol production and a good battery bank system would be far more sustainable than the usual type of stuff that I see them preparing for. Not that guns couldn’t help, it’s just that if you don’t know anything else and can’t contribute to keeping yourself alive for longer than a few months or a year then that’s just going to end up with sick and starving gun nuts who are desperate if they survive that long








  • You don’t seem very knowledgeable about the gun used in this situation.

    All articles about what was found on him kept mentioning a metal slide and barrel along with a regular Glock mag, that heavily implies it was just a 3d printed Glock lower so basically just a regular Glock. The only way it would “leave no special markings on the bullet” would be if he used a gun with a plastic barrel, but I believe the FBI said shortly after the og liberator was released that it leaves enough plastic behind to be traceable.

    In practice the gun is a regular Glock, that would be easily identified as not being legal in a few states. My guess would be that they weren’t getting rid of it because it’s still a perfectly serviceable firearm and he might have been planning on using it again or at least it probably seemed like a good thing to have when he was in fight or flight mode.

    If you really want to get rid of evidence the metal barrel is going to be the most important thing to get rid of as far as being linked to a shooting. Ghost gun is just bad in general unless you are in one of the states that says it’s fine
