  • They wouldn't want to make more money because that would mean they'd have to pay a higher tax rate. Don't try to explain how tax brackets actually work because you'll just make them angry for highlighting their ignorance.

  • I'd like to see a cookie notice that just says "it's your browser, figure out how to get it to handle cookies however you want. If you accept cookies we're gonna use them and you can safely assume we'll use them for anything and everything they might be useful for. European regulators can eat a bag of dicks."

  • 22LR will certainly kill a bad guy, but it fails to fire often enough that I wouldn't want to bet my life on it. It's cheap to shoot relative to other rounds, but the guns aren't necessarily much cheaper than some center-fire options. For a cheap and reliable gun it's hard to beat a Hi-Point.

  • What do you mean?

    Olympic shooting is so specialized and restricted that you can no longer claim its champions are the best in the world at the general sport of shooting.

    Why is more power in the equipment being used automatically better?

    Because more power is required to reach the distances where everything matters more.

    Shooting is a test of accuracy.

    Uh-huh. Do I really need to explain how one degree of error is a bigger issue at 1000 meters vs 50?

    there's no need to disparage the sport and disrespect the athletes

    When OP is implying my tribe can't shoot I take it as disrespect and I'm compelled to belittle the competition itself in response.

  • It's like if they wanted to have motorsports in the Olympics but they only did go-karts and 49cc motorcycles. The people who show up to compete will be talented, but they aren't driving F1 or MotoGP.

  • The world's best target shooters under a very specific and particular set of circumstances, usually indoors. It's like you're trying to insult me for not being impressed at the driving skills of the world's best indoor go-kart racers.

  • I'm just not impressed with any marksmanship that maxes out at 50 meters. Regardless of how powerful a gun is it's not impressive to be accurate at such a short range. I don't care about how powerful the gun is, I just want to see it fling something far enough to be interesting.
