Murdering people over traffic is very normal and well adjusted.

Tom Cotton was the angry neck beard that wanted to send the Army against George Floyd protesters so he is an extremely normal guy.

Peak burgerland, inconveniencing me and my Ford Raptor Super Crew Cab Platinum Edition is a crime worthy of death

[–] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Several states have at least proposed legislation to protect drivers who run over protestors. I forget off the top of my head if any actually passed, but the spirit of murder has been there.

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

I think it passed in Florida, maybe Texas. The usual suspects.

[–] LeopardShepherd@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

It's in the constitution sweaty, look it up

[–] somename@hexbear.net 118 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The amount of people concern trolling about incitement to violence in the replies. Holy fuck. Look at that US senator’s post about killing protesters. I’m honestly furious.

Can't wait for chuds to find out the hard way that some leftists are armed and it's not their entire personalities.

There's a guy who goes to my gym who always wears "operator" style gear and I always see him switch the TV to Newsmax and his truck is just layered in My other truck is a Gun stickers

If I wanted, I could just crush him while he's working the free weights

Yes, I have thought about it

[–] bigboopballs@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago

I'd like to see more chuds get crushed (especially by leftists)

[–] principalkohoutek@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

Love when chuds advertise "free gun inside" stickers on their vehicles

not enough frankly

Is this what the kids called the Shinzo special?

the-doohickey

Apparently the emote picture of it is called "the-doohickey" on the hexbear instance lol.

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 68 points 1 year ago

We also have this one yamagami

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 52 points 1 year ago

I think it comes from a tweet that went something like "dude really got smoked by The Doohickey"

I think at the time I laughed at the reply calling it The Contraption

[–] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 45 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We had a struggle session about whether it was a thingamabob or a doohickey. It tore the community asunder

[–] aaro@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

honestly shit take, you and I both know that it tore the community in twain and not asunder; I have no idea why you'd willfully misrepresent historical fact like that but LIBs gonna LIB i guess

Krystalnacht Kayla has some serious concerns about the consequences of violent speech

[–] RamrodBaguette@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

It gets worse the more you look. They're a zionist RPing a caricature of a Palestinian muslim who's trying to milk a "made-up" genocide for sympathy. Virtually identical to Neonazis mocking Jews for obsessing over the Holocaust/Shoah while posting happy merchants. Fascism but redirected towards "acceptable" targets in service of imperialism.

[–] Sephitard9001@hexbear.net 58 points 1 year ago

we do a little buffooning with some doohickeys

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 55 points 1 year ago

Cotton lives by the post and he will die by the post

[–] btfod@hexbear.net 44 points 1 year ago

Wish he'd get on with it

[–] MemesAreTheory@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm fine with him dying anywhere personally, but if he wants to go out near a post I don't see the harm in it.

[–] iie@hexbear.net 30 points 1 year ago (1 children)

if Tom Cotton jumped in a vat of acid it would be so funny

So I was sort of idly thinking, just for shits and giggles "what's the next step in doohickey technology? How can this luducrously basic, electrically ignited muzzle loader be made more effective, and what's the biggest leap in effectiveness that can be achieved for minimum additional parts and labor?"

And the first thing that came to mind was "electrical contact surfaces"

As it is, the ignition wires seem to end in the chambers, buried inside the propellant charge. This makes the ignition and firing system one inseparable piece, which makes sense for a weapon that was never designed to be reloaded in the field. But if you want to get wacky with it, say if you're somewhere where normal cased ammunition is just too hard to come by, why not separate them? Make the ignition come from a copper rod permanently pressed into the chamber: the end of which, when the barrel is seated, makes contact with another copper piece hooked up to the gun's battery. Add a latch and a couple springs to the frame and bam, quick change barrel system. Keep some spare barrels, pre-loaded, and suddenly reloading your modern blunderbuss is as quick as a barrel change.

Oh noes the twaffic

[–] abc@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago (3 children)

its not that good of a post - i would generously rank it 5/10. three points for the implicit statement, the other two points for the reference but honestly the doohickey/contraption & other related pics of yamagami being used as a 'im gonna beat you in the street with a hammer' sort of response to anything was overdone on Twitter like two months after Abe's assassination. lowbie humor and i bet someone probably posted it in response to the tweet hours earlier. thank you for coming to my post ranking, stay tuned for more

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

you get a bonus point for doing it at such a high level of visibility

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this post is gonna be on cable news guaranteed

[–] abc@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

comrade, whether or not the media picks up on it is far from a good metric for rating the quality of any post - otherwise you would have me believe that the underpaid social media intern(s) that do the monthly 'clapbacks' on the social media accounts for Wendy's are generational speakers

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

not implying it's agnostically a good metric, it's a good metric due to the specific context here. shit is gonna be wild
