Do you not understand the difference between "Hamas has recruited some children" and "all children are part of Hamas and deserve to die"

Wow now you're straight up fabricating things and trying to pretend I said them with a desperate appeal to emotion. You'll have to point out where I said "all children are part of Hamas and deserve to die."

Try and get control of your emotions and look at the situation rationally, if you can. Hamas uses children as soldiers and suicide bombers. When you have a group of people rioting at the Israeli border, unfortunately, Hamas' practices mean that children become targets. They're certainly not helping their cause by recruiting children, are they.

lol employers would pay people $1/hr if they could get away with it. The supply of employees is saturated. It's not like they already did that in the early 1900's or anything, but pesky worker's rights got in the way.

But they CAN'T get away with that, which is the point. Nobody's going to work for a dollar an hour and you'd be a fool to hire somebody at such a low wage because they're going to hate you and they're going to steal from you. If we simply abolished the minimum wage completely, the market for unskilled teenage labor would settle at around $5-$6, we'd create more unskilled jobs, and we'd end up with more useful employees down the line.

Assault rifle used to have a proper definition dictated by the military as being any rifle utilizing intermediate-power cartridges and has selective fire (this completely excludes civilian versions of rifles that have only semi-automatic).

"Assault weapon" is the completely useless term because its meaning depends on which politician you ask, and its sole purpose is to sway public opinion into supporting their gun control efforts by slapping an intimidating label on a broad range of rifles.

This.

These days an assault weapon is any magazine fed semi-automatic rifle with a pistol grip

Doesn't need to be semi automatic. See above: Mosin Nagant

No, assault rifle is a select fire weapon, usually capable of burst fire, but also capable of automatic fire. It has an actual definition, which the TC did not use correctly in his shitty attempt at classifying a small game hunting rifle as an assault rifle.

Wrong.

Go ahead, argue with the dictionary.

He said "sporting rifle" is useless as a term, and I said that so is "assault rifle" when a bolt action gun with a detachable mag, telescoping stock and a pistol grip can qualify as one. Stop trying to gunsplain. I know more than you.

It's just another sporting rifle, which is just what the bolt action gun firing the same round is.

Semi-auto vs Bolt-action is a world of difference to an average person. And the term 'sporting rifle' is basically useless as a moniker.

Just like "assault rifle" is when a bolt action can qualify.

But it's talking about the damage of each individual bullet on contact.

Within the larger context of mass shootings and ease of use of a semi-automatic military rifle vs that of a bolt-action cannon.

If it's only semi automatic it's not a military rifle. It's just another sporting rifle, which is just what the bolt action gun firing the same round is.

So... we've established that the stock market is still way up. Moving onto recent Democrat wins. The Democrats won an election in a blue state, they narrowly beat an unrepentant pedophile and they won a special election in Pennsylvania by 0.3%, because special elections typically have higher Democratic turnout than Republican. Democrats are better at getting their voters out for low turnout elections, Republicans focus on general and mid term elections.
