In honor of our recent NFA infringement roll back...
Figured it was time for a shirt for it!
Just posted on 2A BlackMarket
Hoodies coming later this week
The US has always had different groups... we've always been a destination for vastly different cultures.
However, they came here and assimilated. They wanted the American dream and became Americans to fulfill that dream.
Diversity as an idea isn't good or evil at it's core, but our country has become divided and tribal. In that division, we have allowed bad actors to corrupt several of the most important facets of the American ideal.... the family structure, our schools, and even our faith.
This is also why you can't fix our problems through "European ideas".... because Europe has been incredibly homogenous. In fact, look at the "diverse" countries now... England, France, Spain.... all having MAJOR problems due to the influx of those who haven't assimilated.
Understanding and respecting your heritage is a good thing, but if you want to be American, you have to be American first.
I'm not a European American or an American Indian (feather)... I'm just an American. And I'm more proud of the legacy that the founders provided for us than I am of my own direct ancestors.
That's the key to a homogenous and productive society. It's not a lack of genetics... it's a focused and aligned philosophy of what it means to be American.
This. When it comes to defense, there is no room for "may"
Every bit of risk reduction for me and my family is of utmost importance.
If a 3x likelihood of killing a badguy means it makes my home 1% safer, then I i will defer to the option that protects my family even slightly more 100% of the time
As a Texan, one of the flexes I cringe at the most is "Nth generation Texan"
Your family history is great for you, but your current actions and beliefs mean far more than how many of your ancestors lived here.
Were the Tejanos that died at the Alamo more Texan than Crockett and the volunteers?
No.
Being Texan is about actions, not your heritage.
Lol upset the tiktokers with this one...
Claiming to be something doesn't mean you are.
He teaches heretical theories.
He is on record as being against Texans
But they'll never understand that
Hey Tala-freak-o:
I voted. Not for you.
Paxton isn’t perfect, but he doesn’t want to ban AR-15s.
You do. You said an “assault weapons” ban is “absolutely” still on the table.
He doesn’t think God is non-binary.
You said that on the House floor.
He doesn’t treat white skin like a contagious virus. You specifically said that.
Paxton has flaws.
You’re a polished progressive false preacher trying to remake Texas in California’s image.
Big difference.
This is by far one of the absolute dangerous things you can do
You are warning the intruder you are armed
If they are armed, they are now aware.
The only thing an intruder should hear is the gun going off.
And that's after the bullet already hit them
This quoted post is unavailable.
How do you ensure that Texas ends up overtaking California in economic output and investment?
Pass one of the dumbest taxes ever... A 5% wealth tax on the biggest drivers of the California economy
Do it, California.
I dare you.
Actually, I double dog dare you!
One of my favorite songs lately has been Saltwater Gospel by Eli Young band....
Just love the vibe and upbeat feelings from it.
Tonight... I stumbled onto the version with Jimmy Buffett...
It hit a bit this Pirate who is caught between 40 and 50 a bit harder than I expected...
Brought a smile to my face while causing me to get a bit misty.
It's a good Sunday
Uh... Grok Bot connecting to my X money account???
I don't know if I like this....
Yeah definitely disconnecting this
When you are a gun dealer....
And a customer gives you a pane of bullet proof glass...
There is only one option
When it comes to guns...
It's not if you need it...
It's not even if you want it...
It's "do you have it?"
Go buy a gun, you'll make the world a better place
50,000 heat deaths in Europe....
Not because of "climate change"...
No, it's because Europeans are too stupid and/or stubborn to understand the concept of air conditioning
PSA:
Been digging on a network of scam knife sellers that is targeting patriot accounts on X with fake US locations, sock-puppet "happy customers," and DM-only Cash App sales.
Grok Bot was invaluable on this and did a lot of the heavy lifting. It mapped 49 linked accounts tied together by shared phone numbers, shop links, and word-for-word copied posts.
The hub appears to be @forgedusa1, posing as a Colorado maker. Its phone number shows up in other "sellers'" bios too. Others like @knivesmaker786, @Malone_Edgework, and @hakcutlery post identical ads, down to "HRC: 58 to 60." Two "different" shops even share the same store link.
Red flags: brand-new accounts, "DM me for price," Cash App only, fake reviews quoted as "Another Happy Customer!", and giveaway bait like "reply 'I'm human' to win a blade." Credit to @syskusa and @PMRuckus, who flagged this first.
I dug through this from multiple angles, using different entry points and it seems that @forgedusa1 is the likely temporary center of this, but it's like playing whack a mole.... They just keep popping up.
And apologies to anyone that got pulled into this unknowingly... I trimmed off a good number of accounts that likely just reposted something they thought was cool. Means a few bad accounts likely made it off the list but also a few non bad actors may be listed.
Basically, these are the accounts most likely to be associated with the central hub... Directly or by accident.
I do have questions about ladyvet and a few others, but this is to show the overall network that is linked, not necessarily say that each of these accounts was actively and wantonly participating in the scam
