BLM is racist. Anyone who supports BLM is racist. The facts and the truth is out there if you care to find it.

There was a legitimate grass roots movement focused on legitimate complaints of systemic inequality at one point but now it has been clearly hacked by Soros cash and has morphed into just another deep state sponsored color revolution.
Sharing is caring, but forced redistribution is communism.

It was an awesome day.  Just wish I had made it out to the shooting portion. 

I'm down for all mentioned above, as well as a red dot handgun day.  I am in for rimfire too, but my contribution to firearms to shoot won't be much though. . .  :(  It would be a good excuse to get a 22 rifle, but looks like that would take me months to get it registered. . .

Fyi, this link that ren posted is a cbs news story about isis destroying ancient artifacts in an attempt to rewrite or erase history.

This is what I think about when I see protesters tearing down statues in America.

That practice is centuries old, including Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great and so on.  Russian Czars not only tore down statues and monuments, but they even went so far as to murder the former leader, his government and military leaders, and often their families.

These tactics have but one purpose:  to wipe the cultural slate in favor of their own ideology.  When the people lose the reminders of their history, they become less resistant.

Imagine if the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution were to be burned, as well as all copies, references in books or the Internet and laws that cite them.  Those documents and reference material teach future generations about the foundations this country was built upon.  Without them, it would be much easier to fill the void with alternative doctrines.

The movie Stargate comes to mind in the elimination of history.  Eliminate the monuments, outlaw documentation of history, and keeping the population generally illiterate and therefore more susceptible to propaganda.  Lots of what I believe have occurred in many cultures throughout history.  That formed my opinion of the importance of history of America, or any other country/culture, good or bad.

even the Sphinx in Egypt they now say was changed from its original form thousands of years ago and may be much older than originally thought

Relative to most countries in world history, the US is still extremely young, and therefore has a shorter historical record.

Having said that, we also have one of the most impressive records in history, too.  Not perfect, and not as immaculate as we'd like, but the pluses far out weigh the negatives.

Trying to erase history now will be easier for the anarchists than it will be another 100-200 years from now.  Most dictators who have their histories eradicated were only in power for a single adult lifetime.  The next dictator only has a few decades to erase at most.

This is turning into an elementary school playground! 

If you're not mature enough to be on this forum without getting into physical confrontations, you should reexamine your fitness to own deadly weapons.

How about taking these stupid dick measuring contests offline and quit hijacking the thread(s)?

Its one thing Flapp to fiercely debate issues straight up like you and I do and others who wish to add to the argument, its another thing to cowardly false crack someone when its not their fight.

Take a chill pill, everyone.

If you guys want to get together, bring potluck to share, but make sure to observe physical distancing and no more than 10 peeps at a time according to our outstanding government officials.

The other side of that MSM doesn’t seem to cover because it doesn’t get ratings or appeal to the irrational lemmings. Never mind the 100+ people getting killed every day in Chicago.
