Honestly it’s good for the MAGA crowd to see that normal people in America are armed too. They see themselves as wolves among sheep, while the masses are armed only with their useless empathy and critical thinking skills.

Ive legit met a couple who were surprised I like blades and that I collect them. My three favorite ones are my 1942 Machete made for the US Army, my modern Ka-bar I bought at the Army surplus warehouse in Idaho Falls, and an M3 knife replica I bought from a local dealer.

Now imagine how theyd react if I had a gun, though if shit goes down ill just jack it from one of their still warm corpses.

Honestly if it makes it any better I dont know what the actual fuck possessed me to writ it that way. Guess thats what I get for writing comments while slowly losing it playing Wasteland 1. Seriously how did folks play this in the 80s.

Haha kudos for taking it in stride, I am just teasing of course. Philosophically I've always had mixed feelings on an armed population, but if there will be people with weapons I'm happier if they're in the hands of the people pushing for equality and fighting oppression.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

Yeah, also its just as important to know how to use them as well. Which means for example I am well adept at using a Ka-bar and a shovel since I use them quite frequently around my property, this isnt even that much of a joke familiarity with something weight alone can help quite a bit. But slight joking aside my original comment was probably the most unflattering and worst way I could have stated that, but its kinda funny in a mid 2000s 4chan sorta way so ill leave it.

While you were partying, I was studying the blade.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 hours ago

Its mostly just knives, the machete kinda throws it all off.
