I was very confused for a minute.

Those bloom in May here where I live.

Then I saw you live in Australia!

I love those.

Peace is not given. It is claimed by those willing to stand in the crucible on behalf of those who are unable or unwilling to act. In a world desperate for peace at any cost, the truth is that peace is often paid for in blood.

Newsflash.

Nobody is coming to save you.

Nobody ever was.

Your safety is your own responsibility.

The government doesn’t exist to save you.

It exists to extort you.

And then the Apache pilot goes home to find it was burned down with family inside…except for their heads which are on spikes. Even the dog.

This fantasy of the government oppressing its citizenry doesn’t sound like such a great plan afterall huh?

Wait till you realize the Marines are the ones saying “but I got an AR15.”

Marines especially infantry Marines and other combat arms types are overwhelmingly pro gun.

Do you enjoy your car not being loud AF on your daily commute?

It’s literally the same thing.

They make very very loud things generally hearing safe but still very loud.

When I shoot, it’s generally a suppressed gun, foam ear inserts and ear muffs

It isn’t like the movies

Suppressed is loud too

I walk around with situational awareness; not fear.

Wtf is a jart?

So do taxes on suppressors keep people law abiding?

I mean, I have 4 of them afterall…

Or do you just want to ensure only the affluent can afford them?

You don’t take the shot that isn’t safe.

You don’t know the layout of my home.

You don’t know what my surrounding environment is.

I get your firearm’s experience only comes from COD and movies, but some of us have real world experience, training and knowledge

I didn’t brag.

Just posted a couple old pics.

You definitely weren’t in the military or combat arms.

We spent countless hours practicing MOUT at night.

And plenty of training in environments with enemy combatants and civilians.

Oh and then there was that time I did the thing in AFG

Just take the L dude. You lost. It hurt your ego. Just quietly move on.

Or continue to make a fool of yourself

You definitely don’t know how sound works in general.

I would never hire you as an audio engineer. Lol

It’s not hard dude.

Takes a second.

You don’t shoot through walls. Jfc.

You definitely are projecting massively
