Nope. Not legal to carry pistol, sbr, or sbs under 18.

So carrying a big, scary-looking rifle was actually a very sensible means of protecting himself in the dangerous situation created by Rosenbaum, et al.

Will they be offering counseling services after the Arbery verdict?
Yeah, I know the answer to that

Best Buy offers employees counseling services after the Rittenhouse verdict

It would be nice if everyone who showed up wanted to work through their outrage and grief at an innocent young man being attacked, vilified, and nearly railroaded. A fella can dream...

I am sure they have a plan to fix it.  More Govt Regulation and Spending.

If that means re-funding the police and going back to that old, boomer tradition of regulating crime, that might just be crazy enough to work. Right now the Left is deregulating crime, and trying to outlaw everything else. Guess that's what happens after a few decades of calling good evil, and evil good.

Rittenhouse trial demonstrates the need for the rule of law:

Unfortunately, it is Newsweek, so most of the comments are straight out of the loony bin.

We saw these qualities on display in the trial. Rather than wishing that principles of justice did not apply to Rittenhouse, we should mourn that they didn't extend farther—to those who were shot in the police confrontations precipitating last summer's unrest.

Like the Blake guy whose shooting spawned the riots Rittenhouse responded to. I'm sure I don't have to remind members here that Blake was shot by the police because he was resisting arrest while armed with a knife -- which he refused to relinquish when ordered to do so.

My sig line on another forum

There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Fits here IMHO
For the life of me I can't remember where it came from.

Kinda long-winded... Here's the South St. Louis City version...
 
"Stay strapped, or get clapped."
 
Had a couple of customers in my store today. Nice, fine upstanding young men, polite, paid attention to the car guys. Were in several times, because they were working on a project.
 
And they were happy to make sure that the stendo that one was carrying, and the other guy's poorly-belted firearm were concealed when asked to do so... Boomsticks tend to scare the "gentrified" customers.

Looks like Marjorie Taylor Greene is becoming the Rashida Tlaib of the republican party. I mean, this is pretty, how you say, cuckoo.

Loonies and grifters populate both sides of the uniparty.

It's all part of the show.

Wiki
Quote
It is Congress's highest expression of national appreciation for distinguished achievements and contributions by individuals or institutions.[1] The congressional practice of issuing gold medals to occasionally honor recipients from the military began during the American Revolution. Later the practice extended to individuals in all walks of life and in the late 20th century also to groups. The Congressional Gold Medal and the Presidential Medal of Freedom are the highest civilian awards in the United States.[2] The congressional medal seeks to honor those, individually or as a group, "who have performed an achievement that has an impact on American history and culture that is likely to be recognized as a major achievement in the recipient's field long after the achievement."[3]

For the invisible things of him since the creation of the world are clearly seen, being perceived through the things that are made, even his everlasting power and divinity, that they may be without excuse. Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.
