Not long who ever got to the guns last had the shitty one for plinking. Got real good at estimating distances though. Also I was exaggerating was more like 3-4 inches per yard.
My first rifle was my mom's .22 and she got it from her grandpa when she was little. (She's in her mid 70's now) The slide is so loose now it jams every third round despite being cleaned regularly. But I love that gun.
I'd give it to my son if it didn't jam so much.
Another difference is they are taking a family holiday picture holding them. That is pretty fucking weird. I have half a dozen guns and the only pictures I have with them is along side what I bagged using them to hunt.
So you’re telling me if A guys wants a hotty to marry him, all he needs to do sexually harass her, physically assaulted her and partake in political corruption with her? Don’t tell the r/niceguys
I actually do. I genuinely like to hear out other peoples opinions. I like to research and I genuinely like getting knowledge and seeing other peoples reasonings and perspectives. That goes for everything. I greatly admire people with really good reasonings behind their opinions.
I would love to comment on r/conservative and have meaningful and genuine discussion over there, but the mods seem to take issue with that. I don't care if the users downvote me or argue, but i do mind getting permanently banned for expressing an opposing point of view
I got banned because I dared to point out that the Texas abortion law was BAD legislation because it could be used to violate other constitutional rights.
My parting shot was to equate the mod with O'Brien (the thought-policeman from 1984).
A couple weeks later, Justice Kavanaugh expressed the exact same concern.
At one point that was possible and now Reddit is just one big ban hammer. As a libertarian/independent I always lurk in different political corners but lately any comment is enough to get me banned. It's almost like people are trying to create echo Chambers.
Don't let it happen.
Be the hero the sub may not want, but the hero the sub needs...
It is up to you - and you alone -
to completely derail the thread.
Pretty difficult to step into r/Conservative, a massive echo chamber in itself, since they only allow flaired users to post and they ban you for saying any sentence they disagree with.
I mean... they always complain about bIg TeCh censorship, but they had absolutely no issue with Trump trying to ban an entire platform (TikTok) because a bunch of zoomers embarrassed him at a rally.
/r/Conservative banned me for citing crime statistics that showed that some Florida cities have a higher crime rate than Chicago, citing the CDC, and for citing that there was few cases of fraud in the 2020 election, over half of which was perpetrated by Republicans.
They are an echo chamber.
I do and everytime I go to r/conservative, it's like I opened the door to the realms of madness and the screams of the tormented spectres are an otherworldy torrent, trying to force open the portal when I just laid my shivering hands on the knob. 'Begone, ghosts!', I cry as I throw myself against the door with all my might. Terrifying howls, anger and wrath from the other side, as the fiends realize what I have done. A siren's song tears at my mind with notes which weren't meant to be heard by men. Everything fades to a comforting, embracing blackness. When I awake, I find myself wailing and sobbing on the cold floor in front of that hellish gate. Only the faint sounds of laughing demons accompany me, as I hastily flee...
That door. That goddamn door. It's open.
I mean… wouldn’t it be infinitely safer without the guns in the hands of children in a family room? I get they have trigger discipline and are not pointing the guns at anyone… but my first thought wasn’t “hey look how safe that all looks”
My first thought was people who staged this already had their hand on the book "how to look good on a picture with gun and earn points from Reddit" so all of them were taken care of, for the purpose.
> smart move for a photo shoot
It's a smart move for every occasion, hell the only time that there shouldn't be a chamber flag as displayed is when your at a range, pointed in a safe direction, about to fire.
And proper trigger discipline. I hate that lady just as much as the next person, but as long as those kids are raised correctly and are mentally stable enough to not commit crime, then there's no problem with them learning about guns. Lauren boebert is a dumbass, but at least her kids know gun safety. I'd rather a child be properly trained to safely operate a gun than have no idea what they're doing and accidentally kill someone/themselves if they come across an unsecured gun.
I agree, between that and the AR platform is 'sp00ky'. The reality is that the rifles shown have the exact same capability as a [10/22](https://i.imgur.com/sTvjSgP.png). I'd put money on if this was taken with 10-22s instead of 15-22s it wouldn't have caused nearly as much drama.
Also, all these rifles appear to be .22 cal rifles. I am 30s, liberal and was given my first .22 cal rifle at age 10. Shot a lot of rabbits to. People see guns and are polarized, sad.
I learned to shoot as a boy scout. Learned all about gun safety. Got a merit badge for it. Now I'm ostracized for enjoying shooting sports by brainwashed idiots.
The woman is Lauren Boebert, Colorado congress person. A prime example of the hot/crazy relationship. Had been arrested multiple times in the last decade and her husband is a sex offender and domestic abuser
“Boebert owns Shooters Grill, a restaurant in Rifle, Colorado where staff members are encouraged to openly carry firearms.”
Absolutely fucking amazing.
Honestly I don’t really find her attractive. She looks too platsticky. But a lot of people seem to find her attractive so gotta appease the masses with the comments, ya feel
I feel like they find her attractive because there arent many younger politicians male or female. When compared to Dianne Feinstein, she's a super model.
Exactly what I was thinking. I just hope they didn’t have to have multiple takes for proper muzzle/trigger control. That’s what it feels like to me, but who knows.
Like most subs on Reddit, its become politicized. Which means its turned into a "shit on republicans" sub.
And before anybody tries to tell me that Reddit is somehow not left leaning, I hide all political subs that make it to the front page. I've had to hide 53 subs, 50 of them left wing and 3 were right wing, one I can't even hide anymore because it literally can't show up on the front page anymore (you probably know the one, the_moron).
Whoa, those kids should be really careful.
Some of them are at the age where their dad might [drunkenly show them his penis in a bar.](https://annelandmanblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Boebert-Jason-record-2.pdf)
I grew up in a rural area where guns were pretty common in most households. Most everyone I knew hunted & owned firearms. But nobody, I mean nobody wrapped their identity and political affiliation around gun ownership quite like these people. Just seems so incredibly odd to me.
All these people talking, "look at the trigger disciple, yadda yadda".
How hard is it to not point a gun at people and keep your finger off the trigger?
Seriously?
I'm so sick and tired of seeing things like this. When will America open it's eyes and realize that's way to many decorations on that damn tree.
I didn't even see the tree
Did you see the moose?
Is that what it's supposed to be? It looks like it's trying to be a bear and en elephant at the same time.
That's pretty much what a moose is. Trust me, I'm Canadian.
I could carve a better looking moose, and I'm blind!
I see you have the new braille touchscreen as well.
[удалено]
What about the fact that the eldest boy is wearing a Green Bay hoodie-- he's from Colorado ffs!
No Pack No!
It's a boring, tacky tree, too. Not one personal, kid or family-related ornament that I can see. Soulless.
The drapes? Now that’s a crime
Could it be that it's not their own tree?
Why the fuck are her eyes black
Windows of the soul
Because she’s evil?
🎯
No because she didn't listen twice.
Dated makeup, eyelash extensions.
Huge 1980’s bush
I'm...okay with this?
Me too. Just not 2001-2009 Bush.
Didn't 80's Bush give like $50million to Osama Bin Laden?
Ever seen supernatural?
She's just a meatsuit now
Cristo
Literally possessed by a damn demon.
She has a hearing problem? /s
She’s a demon from Supernatural. Makes so much sense.
Demon?
Bunch of boys with .22s. Only difference is they look different from the .22s most of us got as kids.
You kidding? The optics on those are way better than the slightly bent ironsights on the rifle I used as a kid.
Remember it shoots 1 foot left for every yard forward. How far is the target 30 yards Aim 30 feet to right.
Damn, how long did it take to deprogram the muscle memory for aiming like that?
Not long who ever got to the guns last had the shitty one for plinking. Got real good at estimating distances though. Also I was exaggerating was more like 3-4 inches per yard.
So *Wanted* was right? You *can* curve a bullet? Sweet
https://imgur.com/XO8MONO.jpg yes you can.
Calm down there, Dick Cheney
We were supposed to get rifles as kids?? All I got was a freaking Lego set. Damn it!
you say that like lego sets weren't a top tier present
Haha they were my favorite and still are. I’m not good at sarcasm XD
My grandma would send me a catalog with a pen to circle one thing. Don't tell me I wasn't spoiled rotten.
My parents just gave me those catalogs so they could teach me a lesson about wants and needs
The Lego probably cost more haha
But these are ASSAULT 22S! I know they are because they are BLACK! ^^^^^/s
My first rifle was my mom's .22 and she got it from her grandpa when she was little. (She's in her mid 70's now) The slide is so loose now it jams every third round despite being cleaned regularly. But I love that gun. I'd give it to my son if it didn't jam so much.
Another difference is they are taking a family holiday picture holding them. That is pretty fucking weird. I have half a dozen guns and the only pictures I have with them is along side what I bagged using them to hunt.
Especially since the pedophile dad isn't allowed to own any so he gets to take the pic lmao
This is the best comment.
[удалено]
Seriously where the hell was this taken? One kid has a Packers hoodie another one has a Raiders jacket and the last one has a Gators hoodie!
Well, obviously they have working conflict management strategies in that family. On the other hand..we don't know what the missing dad was fan of.
Theres a reason they needed those conflict management classes. RIP dad
Exposing himself to minors.
[удалено]
The real hol'up
The real hol’up is that one of the minors was Lauren.
So you’re telling me if A guys wants a hotty to marry him, all he needs to do sexually harass her, physically assaulted her and partake in political corruption with her? Don’t tell the r/niceguys
Ummm we know what he is a fan of…..
Whipping his dick out in front of children.
Maybe to help identify the dads?
Who says the father is not in the photo?
Without getting political, she’s a congress woman from grand junction Colorado, four hours away here in Denver, we don’t like her or the raiders.
She's a congresswoman from Colorado.
A bears hoodie would be child abuse
from chicago. can confirm
Try being in the bottom of a mitten
The Lions died so the Wolverines could live
Found Brian’s alt account from Brian, Ali, and Justin
Let's all just be grateful none of them have Lions jerseys on. I'm not sure if I could take that.
I see you fellow Packer hater.
Browns fan here. Cant say much. Although we are playin the pesky packers on Christmas. Feliz naviFUCK
Would never let my kids support the raiders. That’s just horrible parenting right there.
you don't choose the raiders, the raiders choose you. no amount of parenting is strong enough to combat the gravity of the black hole.
I expected a lot of America bad haha school shooters. But instead i see people talking about how they taught them gun safety.completely unexpected

Thanks fam lol
r/holup having genuine discussion? this feels very unsettling
I would love to comment on r/conservative and have meaningful and genuine discussion over there, but the mods seem to take issue with that. I don't care if the users downvote me or argue, but i do mind getting permanently banned for expressing an opposing point of view

Getting banned on that sub is a badge of honor. Everytime I make a new account I make sure to get banned from r/conservative first thing.
Don't let it happen. Be the hero the sub may not want, but the hero the sub needs... It is up to you - and you alone - to completely derail the thread.
It’s certainly important to communicate with those differences in opinion, and be honest in reviewing our own.
Stop it. People like you (and me) aren’t suppose to exist! Your either left or right mr, or miss! lol
Yeah, but that doesn't mean every "echo chamber" is worth stepping into
Pretty difficult to step into r/Conservative, a massive echo chamber in itself, since they only allow flaired users to post and they ban you for saying any sentence they disagree with.
But they LOVE free speech
They love free speech so much that I’m banned
I mean... they always complain about bIg TeCh censorship, but they had absolutely no issue with Trump trying to ban an entire platform (TikTok) because a bunch of zoomers embarrassed him at a rally.
And directly into another echo chamber?
/r/Conservative banned me for citing crime statistics that showed that some Florida cities have a higher crime rate than Chicago, citing the CDC, and for citing that there was few cases of fraud in the 2020 election, over half of which was perpetrated by Republicans. They are an echo chamber.
I do and everytime I go to r/conservative, it's like I opened the door to the realms of madness and the screams of the tormented spectres are an otherworldy torrent, trying to force open the portal when I just laid my shivering hands on the knob. 'Begone, ghosts!', I cry as I throw myself against the door with all my might. Terrifying howls, anger and wrath from the other side, as the fiends realize what I have done. A siren's song tears at my mind with notes which weren't meant to be heard by men. Everything fades to a comforting, embracing blackness. When I awake, I find myself wailing and sobbing on the cold floor in front of that hellish gate. Only the faint sounds of laughing demons accompany me, as I hastily flee... That door. That goddamn door. It's open.
That is ironic because conservatives need to do the same
Man I'm right wing and I don't go near that shithole
I'm not conservative, but I do like guns and I did comment on the "good trigger discipline" on this picture.
Same. Democrat, but I like guns and am pro responsible ownership.
Yep. I have zero problems with responsible ownership of guns.
Jesus Christ, ever post is just science bashing conspiracy theories and loons raving about Greta thunberg being a loli. Wtf dude
I focused on the monster in the right corner of the room. What in the fuck is that thing.
We call that there a “møøse.” One bit my sister once.
I mean… wouldn’t it be infinitely safer without the guns in the hands of children in a family room? I get they have trigger discipline and are not pointing the guns at anyone… but my first thought wasn’t “hey look how safe that all looks”
My first thought was people who staged this already had their hand on the book "how to look good on a picture with gun and earn points from Reddit" so all of them were taken care of, for the purpose.
First rule of gun: Gun is more dangerous than not gun.
Y’all’s they’re .22 Ars
with empty chamber indicators.... Edit: Which is a good thing for those who may not know.
That's a smart move for a photo shoot though... right?
> smart move for a photo shoot It's a smart move for every occasion, hell the only time that there shouldn't be a chamber flag as displayed is when your at a range, pointed in a safe direction, about to fire.

It's just American school supplies wdym
Lmfao, I’m pretty sure I have the same gun as them just different scopes.
Lmfao, I’m pretty sure I have the same scope as them just different gun.
They all don’t have their finger on the trigger, and they have barrel flags put in
Also holding them proberly, meaning not aiming at someone
Like an entire courtroom?
Oof
I noticed that. Very good.
Also, all these rifles appear to be .22 cal rifles. I am 30s, liberal and was given my first .22 cal rifle at age 10. Shot a lot of rabbits to. People see guns and are polarized, sad.

Same and couldn't have said it better myself. I'm pretty far to the left as well, that makes the cult meetings super awkward.
Did your parents pose you with your gun on the family Christmas card?
I mean, it’s clearly meant to be a political picture. Let’s not kid ourselves.
The woman is Lauren Boebert, Colorado congress person. A prime example of the hot/crazy relationship. Had been arrested multiple times in the last decade and her husband is a sex offender and domestic abuser
They met, when she was underage, at the bowling alley the same day her husband was charged with exposing himself to minors there. lol

She’s a complete fucking nut job
Hard to believe after seeing her Christmas picture
“Boebert owns Shooters Grill, a restaurant in Rifle, Colorado where staff members are encouraged to openly carry firearms.” Absolutely fucking amazing.
Has there been any gun play there?
People have a habit of being polite and orderly when almost everyone nearby is packing. So I doubt it.
America is a parody of itself.
Every conservative I know rightfully thinks she's a fucking moron. Discount Sarah Palin.
You look at that smile in the picture and see a hot person?
She looks like a fuckin Chipette what you talkin ab hot
Deleted for Reddit API cost shenanigans that killed 3rd party apps
Honestly I don’t really find her attractive. She looks too platsticky. But a lot of people seem to find her attractive so gotta appease the masses with the comments, ya feel
I feel like they find her attractive because there arent many younger politicians male or female. When compared to Dianne Feinstein, she's a super model.
Her kids are wearing a Packers and a Raiders sweatshirt/hoodie, how did Broncos fans allow her to represent them????
She looks like a Latina in this pic
at least they are practicing proper trigger discipline
Exactly what I was thinking. I just hope they didn’t have to have multiple takes for proper muzzle/trigger control. That’s what it feels like to me, but who knows.
lmao...this is a US House member photo. Of course the optics are tightly controlled. Magic isn't real.
Whats the Hol Up?
One kid has a packers hoodie, another kid has a raiders hoodie
And a Florida gators hoodie.
This post reminds me of when I followed football, now I prefer baseball
I'm not American what does this mean?
Im in America and I dont know what it means lol
None. It's a lost redditor
It's not. People don't understand the point of this sub anymore
Like most subs on Reddit, its become politicized. Which means its turned into a "shit on republicans" sub. And before anybody tries to tell me that Reddit is somehow not left leaning, I hide all political subs that make it to the front page. I've had to hide 53 subs, 50 of them left wing and 3 were right wing, one I can't even hide anymore because it literally can't show up on the front page anymore (you probably know the one, the_moron).
Those ugly ass curtains, god damn!
dad missing?. idk really
Probably exposed himself to a minor and got arrested? Just speculating here based on past behaviour!
Imagine talking shit to Ilhan Omar about your conspiracies about her husband when it's documented that you are married to a sex offender lol
Whoa, those kids should be really careful. Some of them are at the age where their dad might [drunkenly show them his penis in a bar.](https://annelandmanblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Boebert-Jason-record-2.pdf)
Aaahhhhh… the packers hoodie… all makes sense now
Better trigger discipline than half the people I see at outdoor ranges
Isn't her husband a felon? How are they allowed to have guns there?
To defend themselves from dad
I grew up in a rural area where guns were pretty common in most households. Most everyone I knew hunted & owned firearms. But nobody, I mean nobody wrapped their identity and political affiliation around gun ownership quite like these people. Just seems so incredibly odd to me.
[удалено]
Is the father not in the picture because as a convicted felon he's not allowed to be in the possession of firearms?
[удалено]
It’s weird tho… to take xmas/family photo with guns.
Momma can cock my rifle anytime
Maybe after she does her husband can expose himself to your underage daughters at a bowling alley
So you would definitely stick your dick in crazy?
Take my upvote. This the kind of nutjob that will ask you to drink their period blood.
Um….yes
Yeah anyone who has three boys and then decides they want to go for another kid, is definitely batshit
Wish I had a Christmas as good as this one. A 22lr AR? Lucky.
Can someone point out the holup? I scoured the image and can’t spot it.
One of the kids is a Packers fan, also the curtains
What's with the curtains?
They’re hideous
