    I still remember an interview with Condy Rice. She said the only reason that she didn't fall to harm when the KKK raised Cain in her neighborhood was her father sitting on the porch with a loaded shotgun

    Following the vein of a weapon being loaded, I came across this piece which looked okay at first, but then I noticed something peculiar.

    It is apparently true that a chain of grocers (Fresh Foods) is placing kiosks with ammo in them and also true that the machines only dish out the ammo if someone has a valid ID and meets the facial recognition requirements to purchase the product.

    BUT….there is a flaw. Whether highly intentional or just out of ignorance, there is an elephant in the room regarding the way this Breitbart article is presented that will make the left wing anti gun people go crazy.

    Do ya’ll see it?
    Note: They are both the same with the exception that one has more information under the picture.
    (for whatever reason I couldn’t delete one)

    To let the cat out of the bag, the picture presented appears to be a belt of 7.62 ammunition fitted for an M-60 fully automatic military weapon.
    What I’m getting at is although the article itself may be true, the picture is totally false and possibly meant to start yet another fire under the rear ends of the anti gun people.

    That's interesting. I just came across an article saying that this is being done in Oklahoma and Alabama. It's the real deal.

    Yup. The article is true but the picture representing the article is false. No ammo machine is going to be kicking out belts for your M-60.
    Afghanistan or Ukraine maybe, but not in the U.S.

    I can see it now:
    On the way home dear, could you stop at the store and pick up some break, milk and 500 rounds for the M-60?

    company has installed computerized vending machines to sell ammunition in grocery stores in Alabama, Oklahoma and Texas, allowing patrons to pick up bullets along with a gallon of milk. An American Rounds vending machine is now open at a Lowe's Market on Sattler Road in Canyon Lake.5 hours ago
    More vending machines are to be installed in near future. :eek:o_O

    They claim that the right to abortion (which doesn't exist in the Constitution) means that the government should have to pay for abortions. By that reasoning, the right to own firearms (which is clearly in the Constitution) should mean that the government should have to supply us with the weapons of our choice.

    No questions on gun control were used in the "debate" reportedly because they thought Biden would flub the answer, even if he were given the response in advance or over the earpiece which he had and wasn't supposed to have. One of his standard comments is always, "You can't have and cannon and you couldn't at the time the Constitution was written. The truth is, you certainly CAN own a cannon legally in the U.S., and you can probably own an F-16 legally too, but perhaps not with all the weapons. I knew a guy here who had a tank. He salvaged it from one of the Aleutian islands and brought it home on a barge, after which he restored it. It was in his yard for years, but the ATF decided one day that he could own the tank, and he could own the cannon, but he couldn't have the cannon mounted on the tank, so he took the firing mechanism out of the tank.

    At the time the Constitution was written, it was legal for individuals to own fully-armed merchant vessels with MANY cannons, so Biden's standard answer is bunk.
