Now I wonder if it would be possible to engrave the complete works of William Shakespeare on an Iowa-class battleship's 16 inch shell. Big bullet but that's a lot of text.
You could write that in the head of a pin with room to spare.
In fact, the letters formed, an "S" and a "U" for Stanford University, are so small they could be used to print the 32-volume Encyclopedia Britannica 2,000 times and the contents would fit on the head of a pin.
To be fair, writing at that scale (couple of atoms' height if I remember correctly) would probably not stand up to the simple friction or wear & tear of the physical loading and firing mechanisms. Meaning if you engraved the complete works of Shakespeare on a casing, no-one could probably tell once you fired the shot.

Bullet was forklifted to the press conference for media to view
I wonder how much of the bee movie script you could fit on a casing if you used shorthand and a good laser engraver
“Bullet casing found with the entire script of The Bee Movie hand written in calligraphy on it.”
Which one of those are the fascists claiming is trans ideology so they can use it for their stupid followers to support banning guns for people who are trans?
Oh, so that was the obvious bullshit that it was.
The bullets were manufactured by turan ammo and because the government has fired everyone who is remotely competent and not ideologically compromised that was enough to be like “is this ideology?”
The only reason they caught the person is because they were literally handed to them. The investigation was floundering and they had nothing because patel specifically had just fired key staff in the Utah field office. This is, of course, assuming the whole thing isn’t some false flag bullshit bc shit is very convenient and will 100% be used to do nasty shit like deploy palatir nonsense country wide or send out national guard into dozens of cities
If it was a false flag they’d have a much more cartoonishly leftist suspect to toss in a kangaroo court or better yet never catch them so they’d have an Emmanuel Goldstein to pound on eternally. A ghost to blame any number of convenient murders on and justify violence against any dissident.
So wait he didn't even write the stuff himself, it was just meme ammo?
The memes were added by the shooter but the manufacturers markings on the base are marked TRN for Turan Ammo which people are assuming they thought was for Trans Rights.
Probably the owo
nancy mace praying for the shooter when she found out the shooter was a right wing extremist vs nancy mace calling to extermine all trans people when she thought the shooter was pro trans

Yep, that tweet was all I needed to see from anyone to prove what his ideologies were. Like a Bansheeit in the night she’ll screech which way the shit wind blows.
"terminally online weirdo" - so like half the planet?
It seems more like places like 4chan or wherever the fuck Groypers and those types hang out. Discord? Telegram? I dunno
Ehhh I could see a threadiverse user do the same tbh.
well the anti-natalist who shot up some people had a lemmy account I think.
Groyper
they are the nick fuentes supporters types.
Wow crazy. What about the Epstein files though? Trump rapes children and needs to be held accountable.
kirk wanted it released so trump had him fall on a bullet.
Can you get ammo laser engraved with anything you want? That seems like a lot of text for one bullet either way, but I don't know how big these bullets are or how precise the engraving can be.
.30-06 Springfield cartridge is over 3 inches long, 2.5 of that is casing which is the part you would engrave. That's enough real estate to do it by hand if you don't have access to an engraving machine that won't tattle on you for obvious pre-meditative slogans.
"What this for?"
"uh, art project."
Uhh, idk about weirdo. He's got a Helldivers reference in one, I'd say he's kinda just an Internet poisoned gamer. Although, he was raised Mormon, but they prefer the term delightsome.
Unfortunately, some Helldivers do not understand or appreciate the satire.
Which is WILD to me because it's so on the nose, it's like it's not trying to be subtle at all
Most critics in the 90s missed the satire of Starship Troopers and it's hard to get much more obvious than that.
And Helldivers is an obvious homage to Starship Troopers. So much so I'm kind of surprised they haven't used "would you like to know more? ".

Mormons only smile on the outside.
I don't understand the reference in the arrow one
In the video game Helldivers 2, ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ is the code to summon a 500kg bomb, one of the most destructive weapons in the game.
Ahhh, I've only played the first one.
Also, the very overtly fascist human government likes to call the bug aliens fascists.
He should have engraved "Epstein files?" On one of them.
The groypers have been very vocally against their release. Which is a big part of the fued with kirk
