Genius on so many levels. $9300 in exchange for some plastic, plus applied on a large scale, it drains the budget of the gun grabbers. Malign creativity at its best.

I was referring to trigger discipline.

Plans are always useful, in a general way. But when it gets to brass tacks, all bets are off.

This is why training is key.

I'm in horse and cattle country, have a pasture next door, and for awhile there were six horses in it. I loved seeing them but the fly situation was terrible. They've since been moved but I was serious about getting the BAS. They're amazing tools, I may still purchase one.

We used a fly catcher jug that you filled part way with water, added bait, put the baffled lid on & watched it fill up in no time. The flies fly in but can't get out, drown in the water. We had cows all around us & put one at the fence line. It was full of dead flies every few days, & you had to bury them. You can make one yourself, but remember to close it off when it's full & when they're all dead, bury it. If you wait too long, you have a big jar of maggots.

Just got an image of that full jar. 😱😱. Glad it helped animals. Any mosquitoes in there? We have nice summers except for those evil critters. My only solution is to bait them with my hubby as they like him much better. 😉 I can’t use the sprays. Toxic for me. I am trying a Minnesota tested natural product. The jury’s still out.

Thank you, I will try that. It does sound more my speed. I loathe those icky-sticky tapes, I always manage to walk into them and find my hair stuck amongst dead flies. What did you use as bait?

Sorry. Have to laugh at that image. 🤣

Momcat's avatar

the bait came with the bottle we bought & was very stinky! Flies do like sweet & smelly things. I found a link to a diy trap that lists some things to use as bait including a drop of dishwashing liquid to change the surface of the water so when the fly lands on the water it can't fly out. Here's a link to a diy fly trap: https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/2015/07/homemade-fly-trap.html

have fun! remember the saying: "Kill one fly in May, keep thousands away."

Couldn't you feed it to chickens, or is the bait toxic? Asking since I have chickens (sadly, no cows, can't afford the investment and with governements all over the EUSSR coming after farmers, well...).

Disarming the population, regardless of whether the guns are ghost guns or not, coincides ultimately with the WEF goals in my humble opinion. I believe ghost guns are not just owned by criminals but by average, normal, reliable, trained and competent gun owners.

I doubt very much that gangbangers are taking the time to mill out and meticulously assemble 80% firearms--the "ghost guns" President Pedo Pete keeps going on about. A few months ago I read a blog that stated that the majority of "ghost guns" seized by police were regular firearms that had their serial numbers scratched off. They are eventually going to try and push for registration, then confiscation of firearms, I believe.

I believe you're right about WEF goals to disarm Americans. Democrats = Party of Davos

You're welcome, Jeff. Yes, they are deliberately conflating 80% firearms with those whose serial numbers were removed. Safety has nothing to do with it. These are evil people working towards an evil goal.

gangbangers get their guns from the cartels, a full auto like the one that kid in Uvalde used (and it *was* a full auto, listen to the first 30 seconds of the video, at least 5 bursts of full auto fire) costs half of what an AR-15 from a gun store costs.

Expand full comment
John Henry Holliday, DDS's avatar

Interesting. I thought I read that the Uvalde killer purchased it at a store? Daniel Defense, a top-notch AR manufacturer, no doubt makes rifles for militaries throughout the world. Is there a report of the rifle being fully auto? Any report on the killer altering the rifle to make it fully auto? I've read that it's possible to turn a semi-auto to fully auto without too much difficulty.

the official story is that it was a semi-auto bought from a gun store, but if you listen to the video - https://nypost.com/2022/07/13/full-video-of-uvalde-tx-school-shooting-released/ from 5m5s to 5m45s, you'll hear full auto fire in bursts. This audio track has been altered from the original, the fire was a lot louder, but apparently the gunfire was muted to some degree when the sound of the screaming was removed. Of course, if the weapon were a full auto weapon from the cartels - Uvalde is 40 miles from the Mexican border - that wouldn't put certain federal policies in a very good light... given the laxness of border enforcement. Making the weapon out as a "semi-automatic" would further the current political agenda - but the fire from that weapon wasn't semi-auto fire.

Converting a semi-auto into a full auto weapon isn't something that people can easily do, you have to install a select-fire sear and a selector switch, and that takes someone familiar with gunsmithing to do. The select-fire sear is not generally available, and it's a part which is regulated and tracked by BATFE. You're not going to walk into a gun store and buy one. especially on your 18th birthday, you have to be 21 and pass about 8 to 10 months of investigation by BATFE to get one - legally, that is.

Thanks, I appreciate the info.

Good point about blaming gun stores and semi-automatic ARs. A coverup of cartel guns flooding the border is certainly not out of the question. At this point in the game, I am inclined to believe that all official narratives are lies.

Who knows where the guns came from. What strikes me as the strangest aspect of the story is where did the kid get the money to buy those weapons? 18 year olds generally don't have that kind of money lying around.

"SSRIs"

This is something that has been whispered about since Columbine, but as far as I know nobody has ever looked into.

With regards to pot, i've never met a pothead who wanted to sho0t any places up. Munchies yes though.

Also, militaries don't use semi-autos, they use select-fire weapons. He could have bought a Hellfire trigger - it essentially sets the trigger as a "hair trigger" so it only takes a light touch to actuate the trigger, and the recoil could be sufficient to fire the weapon - https://www.carolinafirearms.com/products/accessories-pro-shooters-2179 - and that makes any semi-auto it's mounted on into a full-auto weapon. I was under the impression that such devices were regulated under the NFA, but apparently not so. I can't think of any legit reason that anyone would want one, although apparently they're quite popular. Even military rifles have gone to three-shot bursts, because full auto just blows through huge amounts of ammo and leads to bad fire discipline, besides which blowing through entire mags just ends up warping barrels and screwing them up.
