A Bad Poster posted:Km the other hand, those Bundy assholes pretty much got away with their stunt scott free, aside from tarp ghost (RIP in piece). To be fair, while they did do a whole lot of crimes and brandish a lot of guns, they didn't actually engage in violence (with the exception of tarp guy, who quickly found that trying to pull a gun on an FBI swat team does not work out the way he wrote it in his lovely novel). There's still a long way to go from that to blowing up government buildings or starting skirmishes with the cops/National Guard/army.

Vengarr posted:His restraint was rewarded with Operation: Dildo Drop. It was honestly the best, and resulted in the phrase "barrel of flaming dildos" being published by a (semi?) reputable news outlet. quote:At the end of the road was a mess hall outfitted with an upside-down American flag. Nearly a dozen militants were out back chatting, gathered around a small wood fire. A few feet away others dug through a box of mail, throwing items, mainly sex toys, into an oil drum fire. One held up a large white cardboard cutout of a cock and balls, saying of the flag and eagle drawing on it, “At least it’s patriotic,” before feeding it to the flames. Another militiaman walked by with a black butt plug adorned with googly eyes, saying, “I didn’t even know what this was before someone told me,” as he sacrificed it. We were handed a fake plastic turd as a memento.

A Bad Poster posted:So, maybe we should do something about that "President can unclassify anything they want whenever they want" thing. I guarantee you that Donny has no idea what is or isn't classified and what is or isn't tactically sensitive, we've seen as much evidence to that point over the last 3 years. Just makes the "buttery males!" thing that much more galling. Yeah, even if you made it so the president wasn't allowed to unclassify anything they want, the only way you could enforce that would be impeachment, and you'd still be left with the problem that the president's party isn't willing to do that even though the president in question is a glaringly obvious threat to national security.

Yeah, consider the following: 1) They are going to run out of ventilators at the hospitals pretty soon. 2) There have already been triage guidelines set up to decide who gets them and who doesn't. 3) There's been a huge gun-buying spree among the American public. I think it's reasonably likely they'll be posting troops outside ERs across the country.

There is a case of a high school teacher who got fired after her students found her old porn videos are did when she was in college. She took it to court, and the court ruled in favour of the school for firing her, with the reasoning that it would be literally impossible to teach a bunch of high school students who knew she had done porn. Which is kind of a sad indictment of how puritanical American society is (and this was in California, no less). But that's the current precedent, and I wouldn't be surprised if something similar happens here. New recruits are not very far different to high school students.

Kith posted:From what I remember, he went off to be a writer. He got dunked on pretty hard in the original thread at one point and stopped posting, then a few years later edited all of his posts empty (except for one, which said something like "nobody likes you, rear end in a top hat"). Whether the writing business is connected to nuking all of his posts is a mystery. He probably got published. (Or at least was trying to get published.) When you get published, you sign over rights to the publisher for a period of time, so you have to delete the work from anywhere else it's "published", including this forum. Which is to say those stories may be collected somewhere in an actual book.

We know this because the whole city was sacked and burned during his lifetime, so his house was found in a burned snapshot of it's everyday condition, with his clay tablet hate-mail stash all nicely fired for posterity. Also apparently a corner of the house had been repoed by the neighbours, so I guess he wasn't exactly popular.

McCarthy acknowledged during a press briefing in August that the base had “the most cases for sexual assault and harassment and murders for our entire formation of the U.S. Army.” quote:The report identifies one soldier who was reported AWOL on Aug. 30, 2016; declared a deserter on Sept. 27, 2016; and then found dead on Oct. 6, 2016.

bulletsponge13 posted:Or smoke round. We had a yellow smoke expended round from an ND in our CP. This reminds me of when I went to a weekend-long cadets-like thing in grade 11. Actually it turned out to be like three days of basic training, and was pretty educational (if for no other reason than to illustrate why I should never join the military.) One of the officers there told a story about smoke grenades. Now white phosphorus is banned for use as an incendiary weapon under the Convention on Conventional Weapons. It is, however, not banned for use as a smoke screen. So, many militaries (including the South African military) continue to use it, but packaged as things like "white smoke grenades", with a wink and a nudge about how you are definitely not supposed to use them on enemy forces. But hand-held smoke grenades are something you use for signalling, like indicating your own position for friendly helicopters and such. While most smoke grenades can get hot, they don't generally spray out fragments of a substance that burns on contact with oxygen and can burn through to the bone. The officer telling the story made it clear that in their division, they did not, under any circumstances, use white smoke grenades, and strongly hinted that at some point in the past, some dumb grunt had thrown one on the ground next to himself to try to mark his position.

A guy from my high school went into weird conceptual performance art for a while. One of his works was to recreate a police car, and get a performer to pull up in the car at the exhibition opening dressed as a police officer and serenade the attendees with "Can't take my eyes off you". The actual police station was one block away. http://www.west-denhaag.nl/artists/Simon_Gush/0/24/ He also did a thing where he sold an artwork called "21 Gun Salute for the Death of a Collector". The totality of the artwork was a contract (and money put in trust) requiring the purchaser to have a 21-gun salute at their funeral. http://www.west-denhaag.nl/artists/Simon_Gush/0/35/

Nick Soapdish posted:https://twitter.com/jkass99/status/1380670766342008833?s=20 For a high school art project we had to pick an art movement and write about them. I went with Futurism, which is aesthetically very interesting. Unfortunately quote:the Futurist Manifesto had declared, "We will glorify war—the world's only hygiene—militarism, patriotism, the destructive gesture of freedom-bringers, beautiful ideas worth dying for, and scorn for woman." So they were a bunch of proto-fascists. But this was right before WWI. These guys were front of the line to jump into the trenches, where the movement, and most of its members, died.

Also, though the thread might appreciate this: RapturesoftheDeep posted:Ours had riflery in regular gym classes up though my senior year (1992). They used the weight room for the football team for it-- a big, long, dark room underneath the pool. They did it until they made a pacifist hippie chick take it and out of revenge she shot at the ceiling instead of the targets. She took out the bottom of the pool and the whole thing emptied out into the rifle range. She didn't get into a lick of trouble either, because her dad was a teacher at our school.
