It turns out that Russian psychic water wasn't real, but they did apply their psychic research to the SKS. This explains everything. The only reason a police officer ever shoots anyone who isn't white is because of race and the SKS planted evil thoughts in a demented mind. Since the SKS is so psychically powerful we can't be sure that any firearm won't whisper evil thoughts in to the mind of its owner, therefore get rid of all the guns.

It all makes perfect sense as long as you accept an unprovable hypothesis!

Is this clown a parody poster? Just kinda showed up out of thin air a few weeks back to DERP the DERP...

Nah, typical gamergater. Collections of links to various propaganda sites, the leftists/feminists/Muslims/throw in your fave 'hate' are all evil and out to get him/silence him and destroy society. Toss in a bunch of meaningless rhetoric, catch phrases and a mess of self pity and, voila.

This isnt worth your click, it is a nutjob video. There is no civil war going on right now.

But the plain and researched facts of black vs. white deaths (etc) don't change.

You just don't like how that goes against the narrative you 'progressives' are programmed to force on everyone.

Dude, you wouldn't know a fact if it walked up and slapped you in the face with a dead Tuna.

The original remark to which I took exception was that the 5.56 was designed to wound rather than kill which is pure horseshit.

Going on about how this round or that round is more powerful misses the point quite intentionally. AR pattern 5.56 carbines are state of the art combat weapons. Other than also being useful for mass murder of any sort they're toys for enthusiasts. As you say, they're not suitable for big game but human beings are relatively easy to kill.

The shooter in Dallas used a less efficient system thus limiting his killing power.

A 60 year old rifle is state of the art? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Those are all pretty old too. Of course they are not bad rifles by any means.


There was a lot to like about them, but in the last few years it has been discovered that the G36 suffers from corporate negligence at H&K, and has huge overheating problems.


Pretty much one of the better rifles that has been developed recently. The FN SCAR HAMR IAR represents something that looks like it might be a pretty good pathway that could be a decent improvement over previous assault rifles and LMGs.

I do love how the usual suspects strive mightily to make this into some condemnation of BLM & black people in general. It's just another nutcase with a gun, coincidentally black & shooting cops rather than white & shooting school children or any other possible combination. It's part & parcel of America's fetish for guns & supercharged divisive rhetoric of all sorts.

At least this thread hasn't spawned the usual "if they had guns they could have defended themselves!" malarkey. If the ravers have their way, we'll all end up armed to the teeth & scared shitless of each other.

He's pretty much correct though. Except for the option to "upgrade" from direct impingement action to piston and some evolutionary changes (rail systems, free floating barrels, etc.) the designs you mentioned aren't THAT much different. The only truly 'modern' rifle design you can likely point to would be the H&K G11 cartridgeless ammunition system and that never even made it into production.

They are still researching and experimenting with caseless, and while there have been some major advancements, it still isnt anywhere close to production ready, and it will be a while before it ever is. LSAT was the big program that the army was involved in, but news of that has dropped off the last few years, so no idea if it is still going strong, or if it has been sidelined or cancelled.

The good guys with guns (I'm sure you saw them on the news) followed the instructions of law enforcement. The people who were the primary targets (white cops) did, in fact, have guns. Incidentally, it was the police who blew up the shooter. Further, the majority of "mass shootings" never make the national news because it's not what people have been conditioned to believe is typical - the "white & shooting school children." When was the last time we had one of those?

Thank you. I'm glad somebody else around here actually understands firearms. The listed HK416 is a direct upgrade to the AR 15 platform, for example. With the exception of the Kalashinikov pattern rifle & the oldest mentioned designs they're all chambered for 5.56 & accept stanag mags afaict.

The problem with shooting back, is it will do nothing but further militarize the police, and further put them into a mentality that all civilians are the enemy.

Although all the gun nuts should be busting a nut over this, since they claim the 2nd amendment is to fight back against a tyrannical government. Looks like some people take that talking point too seriously.

I think cops shoot way too many people, and those responsible should be severely punished. But killing police officers that have nothing to do with the incidents in question, is completely senseless, counterproductive and in no way provides justice.

While I completely, 100%, unequivocally agree with you nothing else has worked so I can understand people being frustrated. That doesn't mean that I agree with them killing cops because at best it only makes the problem on top of the fact that you are potentially killing one of the good cops. Unfortunately when people can get justice on a very large scale no other way stuff like this tends to happen.

This is very sad, both for the officers and their families and society as a whole. I can't see anything but escalation on both sides which means more innocent/needless lives lost at the hands of both sides.

It is rather hypocritical to be "protesting" the police, talking about how they murder and kill "your people", and the run to them for protection when the shooting starts, now isn't it?

He actually said that they ran the other way. You know, away from the cops that were being shot at. That is pretty much basic human instinct, even cops do it and I damn sure bet you cops did it in this situation too. It wouldn't make much sense for them to jump in front of bullets meant for cops that they were protesting as killers, that would actually be hypocritical.

I'm not standing up for them but no hypocrisy found whatsoever. Now I could find actual hypocrisy on the cops side but that would be in bad taste so soon after the tragedy.

No, that's not what he said. Re-read the quote.

He said they ran to the police for protection.
