u don't have to buy health insurance anymore either

Reading this thread almost a year later is a bummer.

that just means that anyone who doesn't have health insurance isn't committing a crime if they don't file. of course they'll still be charged and sent up because people too poor for insurance can't afford the 6 figure lawyer bills to take bullshit like that to court. where the hell is grover torquiest when you need him and how the fuck is all-republican government letting this happen? i though they were against the excesses of government and the democrats were the heavy taxes/big spending authoritarian party and the republicans were the small taxes/small government/balanced budget/freedom loving libertarian types

there has never really been a difference. there never will be.

Good news everybody: the republicans want to ban people from saving money for retirement to fund tax breaks for corporations!
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/theres-talk-of-capping-401k-contributions-at-2400-per-year-2017-10-20
>Proposals floating around Washington to cap the amount that Americans can contribute before taxes to 401(k) plans and individual retirement accounts are unsettling professionals in the retirement industry.

>Republicans are looking for ways to generate revenue to support broad reductions in individual tax rates. One idea is to limit the amount of pretax money households can sock away for retirement saving. Such a move would likely generate significant political blowback but it hasn’t been explicitly ruled out, stirring worry among industry lobbyists.

>Members of the House Ways and Means Committee are widely expected to release a version of the tax bill by mid-November. Specifics on a wide range of issues remain unclear. Emily Schillinger, a spokeswoman for the Ways and Means Committee, declined to comment.

>Lobbyists and others in the retirement and financial services industries who have spoken to congressional staff and committee members say lawmakers are looking at proposals that would allow 401(k) participants to contribute significantly less than what is currently allowed in a traditional tax-deferred 401(k). An often mentioned amount is $2,400 a year. It isn’t clear whether that would only apply to 401(k)s or IRAs or both.

Hello, new friend! It is common courtesy to restrict double posting. Take the time to compose your thoughts and enter them into a single post.

>>111061
Why are you talking like that?

Did we really strike you as a center for Trump support?

>>111115
For some reason people assume that being pro-gun = being a bible thumping republican...

>>111118
Well to be fair to their pea brained assumptions, not many gun owners are going to be voting Dem except on a local level or if they have a more pressing concern (a gay or minority gun owner might vote Dem because they feel Dems history of catering to gaymosexuals and Basketball Americans better represents them because they might feel those rights edge out guns rights, not judging them, just stating a fact).

Republicans are far more likely to have our back and not as likely to stick some nanny state approved blunt tipped knife in it. Democrats even with a history of being pro-gun are looked with suspicion because of their parties history with loving gun control long time. Take that cunt Joe Manchin from Best Virginia who despite being from a state with a history of clinging to guns harder then their cousin wives Ol Joe decides to dip his wick in the gun debate by trying to doing universal background checks.

Its no wonder that Joe is getting his nuts stomped by his constituents with many people thinking he might do a party switch like the WV governor did recently.

But it illustrates something about WV, that a state formerly so blue that the only thing bluer was the meth they been cooking has massively turned red as of late. Because the Democrats stopped appealing to them, their hostility towards the working man especially when that man is working with coal, their disgust with how some country boy (don't call him southern or you might get shot) might want to own guns and even more shockingly use them but all responsible like, it bleed out all that blue.

Its no fucking wonder that WV IS a center for Trump support. Support for a goddamn billionaire New York liberal, he was seen as better then Hillary, I mean thats like a Neo-Nazi or a Muslim voting for a jew just because the other guy is so much worse. I'd laugh if I didn't feel like crying

>>111115
The goon is trying to make us somehow regret not voting for Hillary, when there was not even one benefit in doing so.
For everyone on this board, there was one single question to answer this election, "Who gets to fill the Supreme Court?"

As for the reason trump is using jews to fill government positions, the simple fact is that jews are the ones who are actively positioning themselves to both the options available as well as the gatekeepers who recommend the options. He's a new york businessman not an ideologue, so no thinking person should be surprised that he's using the resources available.

>doesn't play by the rules

If it doesn't play by the rules, it's not lawful. For fuck's sake.

The Federation of American Scientists and other organizations keep track of these nuclear stockpiles and regularly release updated weapons counts.

Below is a map that shows the best estimates of which countries have nukes and how many they have. http://www.businessinsider.com/nuclear-weapons-stockpiles-world-map-2017-8

Status of World Nuclear Forces
The number of nuclear weapons in the world has declined significantly since the Cold War: down from a peak of approximately 70,300 in 1986 to an estimated 14,900 in early-2017. Government officials often portray that accomplishment as a result of current arms control agreements, but the overwhelming portion of the reduction happened in the 1990s. Moreover, comparing today’s inventory with that of the 1950s is like comparing apples and oranges; today’s forces are vastly more capable. The pace of reduction has slowed significantly. Instead of planning for nuclear disarmament, the nuclear-armed states appear to plan to retain large arsenals for the indefinite future. https://fas.org/issues/nuclear-weapons/status-world-nuclear-forces/

Well, judging by the actions of US diplomats in the last several months, one can conclude that US and NATO has been preparing for set date and time for some sort of large scale invasion. Again. And again, only symbolically.

>embassy closure
>diplomat expulsion

>The US failed to issue entry visas for the entire delegation of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces

https://sputniknews.com/military/201709201057537273-russia-inf-us-missile-treaty/
>The senior Russian senator warned that Russia is capable to arrange a decent response if US leaves the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty.

Apparently, current lack of international policy in US (a direct consequence of Trump controversy) has been already exploited by some influential parties with their own separate interests. Weither it is a realistic scenario, or will it be put in action at all, is entirely different question.

I don't think you ever really can have enough nukes

>>111102
Eh, then you pay for them.
Just to do a factory refurbish of an old B61 nuclear bomb (upgrading the fixed air fins for movable ones, exchanging the vacuum tube electronics for a microprocessor board, installing new data plugs, etc.) costs twenty million dollars. If that 750 lb bomb was made of solid gold, it would not cost that much!
An example of a defense contractor turning a simple upgrade job (they do nothing to the actual nuclear weapon within the bomb casing) into a nine billion dollar swindle.

lol

Sniping the world series and these digits.

(And look what it GOT you)
(shitposting to get a GET outside of the Zone)

yeah, giving money to the republican party which is in favor of passing more gun control or giving money to the gun rights activists groups who are backing the republicans who want to pass more gun control is really going to help us out.
there is the possibility of a senate filibuster stopping whatever happens, that seems to be the only hope. i'd say keep your money on the sidelines until you see someone worth supporting with it, you might end up feeling foolish giving money you could have otherwise used to drink yourself to death to some fork tongued devil who will turn around and screw you over in a second if it happens to be politically expedient at that moment.
politicians are really the last people who you should be fronting money to

Years ago, I was introduced to these bump-stock attachments in a gun store. "It turns your semi-auto AR-15 into firing like a machine-gun as a legal work-around to the gun laws against full-auto weapons," was the pitch. I replied that shit like this will be used to murder a whole lot of people some day and that will be instrumental in laws getting passed to take guns away from everybody else.
So fuck bump-stocks.

>What do you folks recommend for cheap small guns to keep in your car and that you would not really miss if they were stolen?

Colt 1903 .32 for one, Colt Detective Special .38 for the other.

  >>110975
Seems like alot of people use Hi Points for car guns. I remember someone here mentioning way back that they worked at a car auction and most of the guns they found when going through the cars before selling them were Hi Points.

As a former owner I'd say they are pretty reliable. Ugly as sin, heavy as fuck to the point I think it would be excellent to beat the shit out of someone with, and apparently bordering on Nokia levels of indestructible going by Demolition Ranch.

>>110978

>tossing classics in your trunk

I'm not even a Colt fanboy, and ultimately, you can do as you please, but what the fuck bro?

>>110980

>[T]hey are pretty reliable. Ugly as sin, heavy as fuck to the point I think it would be excellent to beat the shit out of someone with, and apparently bordering on Nokia levels of indestructible...

That does seem to be the consensus.

>>110993
The consensus of anyone who has handled them with an open mind atleast. Too many gun snobs will either never give them a chance because they look like Frankenstein's monster's big black cock or act like its a total piece of shit even when they do handle it even if it runs flawlessly.

I mean I can't blame people for thinking the Hi Point is crap just by looks, its like a Deagles short bus cousin. It looks so shitty, like you'd think cheapo Lorcins and Raven Arms pot metal pieces of shit would be better quality. But like a meh girl with a big heavy sweater that makes her like like a fattie, whats underneath makes up for the outside.

While it might not have a slim waist, big ol titties and a mouth that could suck your dick so hard you gain a few inches, its a pretty solid bitch that does a fine job putting bullets towards the general direction of targets reliably while not raping your wallet.

>>110993
The 1903 is not US Govt stamped and no I would not use a M1908 the same way.

The revolver was not my call, but again cheap reliable and all purchased privately.

>my stolen gun was just used in a triple homicide, that would be troubling.

>What do you folks recommend for cheap small guns to keep in your car and that you would not really miss if they were stolen?

Pic related, it is that conversation.

End of the day though, be a big boy about it and do the needful.

We no longer keep firearms in the vehicles permanently when parked at the house.

  >If anything, the situation in Venezuela is even worse.

Quite a understatement, as you can see from this video of people cheering and clapping after a firework gets used as a IED against police.

>In 2002, I immigrated to the United States from Venezuela, one of the most dangerous countries in the world today.
This isn't called "immigration", it is "asylum". I would not expect anybody to know what happened 15 years ago in Venezuela, so there:

No government really should keep guns in the hands of dissidents, terrorists and foreign mercenaries, lest such government wouldn't take long to collapse.
