For several weeks Venezuela has been rocked with protests and riots as the Maduro regime increasingly tightens its grip on the population. It seems as if security forces are brutally cracking down on dissidents on a daily basis now. Wednesday in particular, saw some incredibly tense clashes between protesters and government forces in the capital city of Caracas. According to Bloomberg:
Injuries throughout the city included 134 traumas and 17 cases of people overcome by gas, Mayor Ramon Muchacho of the opposition-dominated Chacao municipality said in a post on his Twitter account. Those hurt included lawmakers Freddy Guevara and Julio Montoya. The opposition coalition, known as MUD, said in a statement that more than 300 people were injured in today’s clashes.
The South American nation has been riven by protests for weeks, and President Nicolas Maduro has called for a popular assembly to write a new constitution, a fresh attempt to consolidate control. Hundreds of thousands have taken to the streets to protest what they say is a plummet into autocracy. Protests over the past month have resulted in at least 30 deaths, and opposition politicians have vowed to continue street actions.
Of course, those are just statistics. To really appreciate the human costs of these events, you have to see it with your own eyes rather than just read about it. Take a look at what happened yesterday in Caracas, after an armored vehicle owned by the Venezuelan National Guard caught fire.
This is what civil unrest really looks like. It’s dirty, chaotic, and bloody. Let’s pray it never escalates to this point on our streets.

That is what those A-holes deserve.
I have ZERO sympathy for Venezuela. They voted for that crap now they have to live with it.
That armored car driver was saving his colleagues from the mob, so good for him.
Now, when these retards stop throwing rocks and “protesting” and actually pick up a gun and start a civil war, then I might actually care about what happens in Venezuela.
Aside from oil, they export baseball players. Banana Republic personified. I’m with you on
that. They could have a semi-decent, American-backed puppet president. Instead, they always want some revolutionary commie dickhead. Choose your medicine carefully.
How about we (the west) mind our own business, stop trying to destabilize the Venezuelan economy, that we NOT classify the legitimate Maduro gov’t as “a threat to American interests”, and keep our greedy psychopath corporatists hands off of VZ’s oil. Sounds fair, no?
yes, they RICHLY deserve what they are getting….coming to a theatre near YOU! funny how yesterday on the news i see a police chief in chicago area saying “we need more restrictive gun laws, enough already!”….don’t they ALREADY have the MOST restrictive gun laws?….look south to see how that all works out for U.S.
Those peeps running chic ago are dumber than a bag o hammers
You banged the nail on the head. Chimps have never been good with math
I’ve seen some pretty smart hammers in my day
Yup, I have a really smart arsed hammer. It manages to hit my thumb every time I use it. I can hear it laughing at me from the tool box.
I keep that tool box well locked, otherwise that damn hammer might come for me in the night. My anti-gun neighbor has been talking about how guns kill… Boy those guns got nothing on hammers.
Stay tuned for more reports, when hammers attack! By I. Drip Sarcasm!
Have you offered your neighbor a “Gun Free House” sign?
Their drug laws have worked so well maybe they can use it as a templet.
BCOD, ANYONE who speaks out AGAINST PRIVATE GUN OWNERSHIP AND INDIVIDUAL SELF-DEFENSE IS AN ENEMY OF WE THE PEOPLE AND I WILL TREAT HIM/HER AS SUCH, EVEN SOMEONE IN LE. IL already has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation. Cali would be proud of them.
Braveheart, anyone who would disarm you is not your friend.
Gandhi, that’s exactly my point. Something needs to happen to the antigun lobby.
Yes let’s take “their” guns.
You have to also realize that many of those “antigun” extremists are arming themselves. Why do you suppose they would be doing so?
Be ready my friends.
Post trump election, has 22 rimfire become more available? I don’t remember to check for it when I’m out. But it was pretty scarce the last few years after newtown. I have several thousand rounds, but would like to lay back some quantity for my daughter.
Khemp, check your local gun stores and sporting goods stores. At least in my area, there’s a fair supply of .22LR target ammo but the hollowpoints are harder to come by for some reason. At my last gun show last month I found only 2 bricks of .22LR hollowpoints and bought both; everything else was target rounds which I already had plenty of. Also try online sources which I may start doing myself.
22lr is for children ?, try to lay your hands on a modern energy device if you want your little loser to have the best. They sell antique guns next to the toy department at Walmart for a reason dumbasses.
John,
I am Venezuelan, and I admire the people of the United States (Not ZERO a 100%)for your brotherhood and heroism throughout the history and I hope that your country will never have to live the situation that crosses my country.
At this moment young people of 17 and 18 years old fight for the Freedom of my country. And this happens not because of a decision to vote, it happened for a hope of some leaders who cheated the people and want to lead us to a communism.
These young people fight with their hands, with what they achieve, but they fight with the spirit giving their lives for Freedom. In 30 days of protests 31 young people have died, victims of repression of the regime
I have seen helpless women, elderly in wheelchairs protest and are attacked by the military of the regime with no mercy.
This is our Struggle for our Freedom and to amend the mistakes made in the past.
If in any moment your country needs our support and solidarity, have the full security that we would be with you, as brothers for Freedom.
Peter
Peter, Venezuelans did not fight when their welfare checks were good? I think Venezuela people are just like amerikans. Lazy and stupid and willing to be slaves when the price is right. But throw a hissy fit when they can’t get their govt hand out. Any civilization willing to hand in their arms should be starved out.
Peter,
I for one am sorry for all the economic, political, and physical hardships the wonderful people of Venezuela are going through.
I know for a fact that most of you did not ask for the government that you are stuck with at this time. Perhaps with the help of new opposition leadership, the workers, and the students, you can mount a credible resistance movement and re-establish a democratic government. You will need the sympathy of the military. Sadly many more may not make it through this chaotic period. Keep a daily record, a diary, take digital pictures, draw pictures to record the unfolding of freedom in Venezuela.
Surely there are many children of the military who go to local schools and universities who can in turn influence their relatives so that they will not shoot at their own children.
At one time we had a very robust Venezuelan community here when young university students were studying at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge to become engineers, teachers and agriculturalists.
Peter, you have our sympathies and you are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of great upheaval. Keep us updated by posting at this site as often as you can.
Louisiana Eagle
Peter, the most amazing thing in this attack is the VZ government attacking unarmed people using the same mass murder tactics that Jihadists have been using.
Regarding these terroristic attacks by Venezuelan government forces, we only hear crickets from the UN, US gov, or the Globalist World Press.
Incredible.
Peter Remember, if worms had machine guns birds would not £Uck with them.
Peter, next time if your country rises again save 10% of your money for arms and use them effectively to eliminate banksters.
THESE VENEZUELIANS ARE NOT FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM, THEY ARE FIGHTING WHILE BRIBBED TO DEMoNSTRATE IN THE SAME WAY IT IS ORGANIZED BY THE CIA, USAID AND NED ? LOOCK WHAT BRUTALITY THEY SHOWED IN UKRAINA, loock at the picture the size of the stones used to throw at police and guard services, the use of big stones molotov cocktails and firearms like theses CIA operatives used in so many country’s in the world to impose what they call ” Regimechange ” a puppetgovernment selling Venezualian petrol on exxon and other us maffiosi ! This is nothing more than MAIDAN version Venezuela !
Maybe
But I think it is just rich people trying to keep what they stole from the people fair and square.
Peter, I found it is harder to fight for your rights when times are good because so many cowards are willing to criticize you since they think they don’t need guns anymore. I have spent thousands$ on political grass roots pro gun candidates. But most cowards spend their money running away to a bug out location. Hahahaha they would be destroyed by one sniper with good night vision equipment. You can run but you can’t hide cowards hahaha.
what’s the DIFFERENCE between america and venezuela?…..nuthin’, in a few weeks. in the divided states of america the evidence is out there for all to see. we are arguably the MOST corrupt country in the world. our fate is sealed. we can see what needs to be done to save U.S., but we won’t pick up our pitchforks and DEMAND it. the bread and circuses have been replaced by TV, social media, video games, and EBT cards. ancient romans were vile, arrogant, deceitful, cruel, corrupt….just like our leaders today. how can america’s result be any different than rome’s? it’s already painfully obvious that our collapse is well underway, to all but the terminally naive.
I want a turn to drive that armored truck!
You hit the nail on the head! Things have changed so much. Our youth are going to be saddled with the folly of so many years of entitlement giveaways it will be just like Venezuela here.
Off topic.. Here’s something everyone should watch!! Basic laceration repair, I’m quite sure most of us are not Dr’s.. But it’s something all of us should know..

Peter, Americans see Venezuela as a very “leftist” country and because of how we see leftists behave in our own country we have little sympathy when the country falls apart. But we also know that not everyone agrees with the left in Venezuela. Though I don’t know many details about who is fighting who in Venezuela I assume you are saying that the protesters represent the “right” side of the political spectrum. If this is true then many of us would support the protesters. If it’s true then I hope they are successful and they can eliminate the globalists that seem to have taken over most governments. Let’s hope all nations can get rid of the “nanny” state that we see in so many 1st world nations.
Peter, welcome and I stand in solidarity with you and your people. I wish you the best.
This has nothing to do with “socialism”.
Denmark has socialism.
This is an 80 IQ population at work.
Think about it, people.
Nothing is as important as the race issue.
If whites dont hang together, they will be run over by trucks and much worse.
Think of your kids being run over by a truck.
Yes, Thomas Jefferson knew that he should never educate his slaves to keep them dependent and afraid.
Jefferson even had his own SWAT teams. If the nigglets got out of line he picked the biggest buck to swat them with a whip.
Before they were socialist they were a prosperous country. This IS because of socialism. But, they wanted it, so they get what they deserve.
Acid has a good point.
No. Acid is brain dead… and a faggot.
Whites better wake up and do it quickly if they want the race to exist down the road.
Very, white people need to breed a lot more, right now, or it’s over in about 120 years.
Thomas Jefferson-says but I likes black girls?
Gandhi, Jefferson has been dead for a long time. So has slavery. Get over it.
I am a tax slave, so are you pumpkin
So has Jeezuss.
Jesus lives.
95% oil base country. Prices dropped. And so did they.
On a personal level for the “police” in VZ, if people can get to you, you day will be quite bad indeed. One minute you’re bustin’ heads, the next, you’re hoping to see another sunrise.
JS, I hope for your sake you’re not taking up for Maduro and his POS commie regime. While they did originally vote for Chavez, how the f#$% were they supposed to know in advance what Chavez would really do? At least a good number of them finally awakened and smelled the coffee. BTW, they’re fighting with whatever they can get their hands on. Private gun ownership was banned in Venezuela a few years ago. They would have to take out some of Maduro’s goons and disarm them to start their own civil war.
JS BTW if some of your family were being attacked by thugs or run over by an APC, I’ll bet you would sing a different song.
My family knows the #1 rule.
Stay away from crowds.
And don’t bring rocks to a gun fight.
how the f#$% were they supposed to know in advance what Chavez would really do?
It is called “history lessons”
And no, I am not taking up for Madureo. But I was taking up for the police man driving the truck.
John…we all got it come’n
Yup, We sure as shit do. Very few will be untouched when it starts full swing here.
Yes but all this talk about starving people is making me hungry, I am headed to Burger King so be right back.
Burger King, meh?
I haven’t been to one of those low-class, low-life, low-quality “food” establishments for many, many years.
My wife doesn’t go to those cheap burger joint either, so I use Burger King as my get away ?
According to Paul Craig Roberts, the new Venezuelan government came about as a result of our government… another puppet government like the Ukraine… brought to them by the USSA.
According to history, real history, the Venezuelan government was brought to them by their own enthusiastic vote.
This is not shocking. Corrupt governments kill their own citizens regularly
Correction…all governments…
That goes without saying!
You can say that again!
Say what?
Wonder if you will say the same thing when this happens you you and your family, John. No, not everyone voted for Chavez/Maduro, so do they “deserve” this? There are many here are fighting against the darkness, just like those in Venezuela, who have NEVER supported the fascist leftism, and even for those that did but had a change of heart, they deserve to be MURDERED? C’mon, John, you can do better than this.
TEST, BRAVO! I do wonder what’s going through John Stiner’s mind?
Then Venezuela Reports and shows all the bloody violent protests in America with Soros Anti-fa and says American Cities are in complete breakdown and all out chaos. Or Chicago’s 150 Gun Murders every weekend and reports America is completely run over by violent gangs, be glad you live in Venezuela.
Folks all of this is BS. Very peaceful in my neck of the woods, beautiful day out. So Happy Cinco De’ Mayo Illegal Mexican make me a Taco / pour me a Cervesa’ Beer kind of Day. Got a smoking hot date tomorrow, life is good.
Is she (or he) Mexican?
Shut the fck up, white trash, you’re the cockroach of america
Picture of a “thing” located above… not very pretty but I guess it makes men’s salivary glands drip water.
And when it happens here (which, it will!!), people in other countries can post comments putting us down and we will deserve it. Only an idiot would make derogatory remarks about those poor people!!
Anyone who does not believe in guns should be forced to watch this video.
What guns? The Venezuelan civilian population has been effectively disarmed.
Why won’t maduro just let them eat cake?
Maduro was a bus driver before he was a politician, now do you understand ? He is an idiot.
If he is the idiot and he is in charge, then what does that say about everybody else.
John, that is my point. Maduro is in charge only because he was the gay lover of machezmo.
Under the new law in Venezuela, only the army, police and certain groups like security companies will be able to buy arms from the state-owned weapons manufacturer and importer.
One can’t pick a gun and use it if there are none to use!!
Not every one of them voted for “that crap”. Your post is very insensitive and quite frankly ignorant.
The ones that did vote for it, and the ones who willingly complied like sheep and turned in their guns, do so deserve it.
BlackMoe is right. Besides votes don’t matter unless you have modern weapons to back up the vote. That way if the scum you voted for turns madero on you then you can oust them and put Hillary in.
Actually, if you look at the footage objectively, a police officer was over run by protesters – essentially being mobbed and beaten when the truck ran into the crowd. It wasn’t something just done arbitrarily.
If your brother/sister/etc… was over run by a mob, you would have done the SAME DAMN THING.
While i don’t like socialism any more than you all, THIS is the kind of lop sided, side-taking and slanted reporting that we all deem as “fake news”.
Sorta like how they portray that mike brown as some poor little black kid,,,
When in reality he was a punk
Nailbanger, I’ll go even further and say he was POS gangbanger who got what he deserved. If he had attacked me, he would’ve gotten two rounds to the head.
Mike Brown was a straight ghetto thug savage coon she-boon! The world is much better off with his ass 6ft below the cold dark earth.
VCC, damn right.
Brown was a good church going boy, gunned down by a trigger happy gangster cop who just wanted to kill a black boy. ?
Brown would have certainly invented a better light bulb.
there are no “police officers” in that crown. only government storm troopers…those people need to really revolt. those pigs in the vehicle were murdering people who had a viable life until the government stepped in. any of those jackbooted thugs that got hurt still didn’t get what they deserve.
Vocalpatriot, I noticed 2 armored vehicles hit by Molotovs. That’ll do for a start but the protestors should’ve had more. I would’ve emptied a whole mag into that vehicle and driver. Their so-called cops are just Maduro’s Gestapo and some of them getting at least part of what they deserve. What’s happening down there is coming here; only a matter of time.
That was really insulting towards the Gestapo!
A police organisation that never served as riot police and make it a point of pride to always knock before entering a home.
Those thugs are unable to reach such level of professionalism. They are not even eye to eye with Stasi and NKWD. (But if they try really hard, they may be abel to copy the FBI)
All POLICE serve their EMPLOYER not the PEOPLE. When I said that before I was called Anti-American…There will be no difference in America, loyalty to the PAY CHECK will always overcome loyalty to the people. the military is no different (and I say that from being inside it every single day, the American people have no clue but to believe the brainwashing patriotism crap).
NJ, all people have to do is google ‘federal and state supreme court rulings on the duties of law enforcement’. They’d be shocked at what they find.
Cops should be loyal to taxpayer, but in fact are loyal to tax collector- mr. levy, who levies the tax.
They can’t afford gas at a subsidized 6 cents a gallon for their gas bombs.
They need more than sticks and rocks to fight back! At least in this country we have something to push back with !!!
Sketch, there was NOTHING FAKE about those people being run over by that armored vehicle. That same one and another one were hit by Molotovs. What that commie slime Maduro is doing to his people is NOT fake news. That whole affair is just as real as can be.
Sketch, keep in mind that brutality goes both ways. If you’re a storm trooper and people get to you, you’re truly fucked.
Pass the popcorn and hit replay
sketch, how/why does your screen name link to Disney?
Are you Michael Eisner?
silence?…., must be him
Glad to be in a state where petty little pukes don’t have a foothold. If only some big city y cops ran over some hipster anarchist dip shits maybe we could get on with running the country.
You do know that Venezuela is run by “little pukes” and serves as the dreamplace for these “hipster anarchist dip shits”, right?
Vote socialist komrade!
The government will look after you.
Yes a farmer looks after his pigs just like govt looks after its cash cow peeps. Bacon anyone?
1. Stay away from crowds
2. Dont live in a crowded city.
3. At least have half a brain,,,,,
4. If your dumb enough to be waiting for the government to feed your ass then bit ch when they dont, you most likely deserve to get run over by a bearcat
My advice in a food riot is don’t stand in front of a flaming armored vehicle, don’t be that guy stuck between the front and rear axel. Yea, don’t be “that guy”
Just this week they had record breaking flooding In SE Missouri and NE Arkansas. And there wasn’t any looting’ there wasn’t any moaning and crying on TV that the government must do something. No demands for free stuff. Folks just carried on and went to work doing the best that they could with what they have to work with. Of course they are for the most part White Folks. White Folks who know what it means to be White. If that’s racist We need more of it!
Old Guy, I saw that online earlier. I noticed US 63 was flooded in the Walnut Ridge area, That’s the route I usually take to go see Dad. I’ll be back from GA on Sunday. I’ve got 2 weeks off so I’ll go and see Dad after getting back but I’ll be taking a different route. BTW, I also know what it means to be white and don’t apologize for it.
Flooding? Should we be confiscating guns like in Katrina. This is bad get the guns out of home owners hand now!
Old Guy: Amen sir! the truth is the truth. Blacks would be acting like the wild she-boons they are, crying, looting, stealing, burning shit up, you know the typical drill with those monkey savages.
VCC, in that part of AR, there’s more whites than apes.
They don’t have very many people of color in that area. Its about 90% white. Anyone attempting to loot and caught by the citizens would wish that the law had caught them first. I now live west of that area. I moved to The Newton Searcy &Boon county area. Boone county is where the headquarters of the KKK is located. This area is over 99% white. Less than one half of 1% is a race other than white. That one person claims to be Cherokee? I researched the area and customs very well before relocating here. And I do have Kin here So I was accepted.
Every cracker in the South claims to be part Cherokee or Choctaw. ” My great grand mammy was a full blooded Cherokee.” “My great, great grandpappy was a full blooded
Choctaw.” Thats all you hear anywhere you go in the south. There must have been a
whole battalion of Indian studs combing the countryside and impregnating all the hillbilly
broads. Been hearing this shit for time immemorial. Hillbilly moonshine stories. Everybody
looks whiter than Casper the Ghost and they all claim to be part Cherokee.
The Ozarks where settled by former solders who received land grants for their service in the war of 1812. And women where scarce. When the trail of tears came through many of those lonely men obtained wives from the Cherokee- Chocktaw and Creek. The are not registered because they never made it to Oklahoma. And On the Census records they are often listed as Black Dutch. My wife has a large percentage, both Cherokee & Chocktaw but isn’t listed on the Dawes Rolls or registered as a native American. She has the appearance that the native American’s have.
If I was driving that truck I would have done the same thing.
Yes old guy, they would be smarter to go to some dudes BOL at 2:30 am and using IR lasers and then throw a rock against the cabin to make the dog bark. Then when you see the window curtain move to look ? out the window just open up with a 50 cal BMG below the window sill. That is how the Feds do it.
It looked like the tank ran over the cop and the crowd.
__
Maybe the truck was like a recalledToyota trucks that go out of control all by them selves?
Wow, more murdering leftists. What a shock. Not.
Wonder if they’ll beat the 100 million the left murdered last century. I’ll bet even money they do.
Government paid murderers are not the sole realm and method of dictatorships………the last 60 years of European nations and the USA decisions reflect that same brutality. The only reason people can say their government is morally right is their internal perspectives, but govt, murderers are all the same, the agendas are the same, the words used to define the agendas are different. DEAD is DEAD no matter what government authorizes it. Government is the problem first foremost. Cognitive dissonance allows for people to NOT understand that simple equation.
And (((governments))) are (((controlled by)))?
hint- who controls world monetary system controls most/all “governments.”
Hey anyone ever try making their own mre s using foodsaver machine and buying the components seperaty. Is their a savings doing this. Damn mres are marked up so much for what you get. Paying over $100 for 12 is just outrageous imo. Or maybe I’m just cheap I don’t know. Don’t have any mres would like 5 dozen with heaters for me and family. Figure making them myself would save$.
A-hat, you’d need a load of chemicals to make your own mre’s.
How about vacuum bagging a selection of big Macs, BK burgers, and fries? They’d last forever you know!
Asshat, if you love sodium, MREs are LOADED with sodium. First time I ever tried one I threw it up. Nastiest damn thing I ever tasted in my whole life. There’s other options. Mountain House is the only freeze-dried food I like. The other brands suck.
Thrive is better than Mountain house
These poor people are so screwed. They have no weapons of consequence, no food, and are faced with a government willing to kil, them for simply wanting food.
Yes, Venezuelians voted for the people that disarmed them and enslaved them. Many Americans are more than willing to walk down that same path. California is on the same edge right now. Disarmed and a sanctuary state mentality that want to import murderers and criminals because they are just poor unfortunate lost souls.
PTPO, any gun owners to willingly give up their guns deserve whatever happens to them. Our ‘liberty tools’ are the only thing standing between us and tyranny.
Exactly.
They just need a hug and all will be well.
The US is an inch or so away from this type of shit…just wait and see what happens people.
Yes, amerika is two failed EBT card reloads away from full scale she-boon porch monkey armageddon.
Smart Venezuelans bought gold.
Dumb Venezuelans who didn’t buy gold are eating there pets.
Actually the pets are long gone
and the zoo animals
…and most of the garbage cans have been emptied. Maduro doesn’t appear to be having any missed meal hunger pains. He better keep inside where he is protected. Might become the main menu on an upcoming barbeque.
They are down to eating flamingos now. Those must taste like $hit.
Soon the zombie brain eaters will emerge.
If Hitlery was elected we would be seeing this in the US.
Only thing it would be the Patriots being run over by Guberment Thugs.
Not to say it still can’t happen here, but we might just have a little more time before it does.
Don’t forget the Commies and BLM and the like are still going to try to pull some shit this summer, and they have been practicing with firearms. I’m ready for them I’ll set back at around 300 to 500 yards with my 300 Win Mag.
Sgt.
Stock up on 50 BMG rounds only $5.00 a pop at walmart?
A 50 BMG is great for assaulting BOLs , that is what the Feds use.
300 win mag is a 1000 yd rifle. Just use a pellet gun at only 300 yds. And don’t waste that good 180 grain ammo.
I was thinking more like 1000,,,
If i miss on the first shot the correction is fast and i know i can do it faster than they will figure out what or where
Nail banger, one shot one kill or they will spot you if you take a second shot? Learn how to shoot by going to 1000yd matches and you will see me there coaching idiots that miss their first shot.
I will burn most of my attackers to death when it comes and shoot the survivors.
Sgt Dale, I have a question to spot a liar who can’t shoot long range but pretend they can: when does the Coriolanus effect make the most difference in bullet impact shift. a. Shooting north and south. b. Shooting east and west. c. Shooting straight up in the air
Coriolis Effect refers to the deflection on the trajectory of the bullet generated by the spinning motion of the Earth. Its effect is negligible at medium distances, but becomes important around 1000yds and beyond, especially because it can add to other minimal errors and keep you off target.
The rotation of the Earth generates a centrifugal force, the same that pushes you to the side when you make a sharp turn with your car. This force acts perpendicular to the Earth rotatory axis, adding or subtracting to the gravity force. When an object flies eastward, in the same direction of Earth’s rotation, centrifugal force acts opposite of gravity, pushing it away from the Earth’s surface. If the object flies westward, in the opposite direction of the Earth rotation, centrifugal force pushes the object toward the ground concurrently to gravity force. Thus, bullets fired to the east always fly a little higher, and, conversely, bullets fired to the west always travel somewhat low.
The amount of drop change is in function of:
Latitude – The linear velocity of a point on the Earth’s surface, and thus the amount of centrifugal force, is maximum at the equator and decreases going toward the poles, where it is null.
Shooting direction, or azimuth – The amount of drop change is highest when shooting east or west, and as the trajectory angles north or south, the amount of drop change decreases, becoming null, as the angle points toward either pole.
Muzzle velocity – The amount of centrifugal force is determined by the speed of the flying object.
and there is more .. but your choice of answers is lacking a lot, there is way more to it than what you have included in just A, B, Or C
so.. my question to you is …. what is the furthest distance you accurately shot ? with what? at what?
and how did you build the cartridge that did it? or was it factory ammunition ? ( you could really fail here so I’ll be checking back )
this is, unless your a flat earth type… than there is no such thing as the Coriolis Effect
yes it has been debated, and to some there is proof
my longest shot wasnt affected because at approx 700 yards out of my .300WM was as far as i could shoot where i was at
but the wind and temperature sure had an effect , along with the terrain
yes , I ate what I hit , and it was delicious
no, I didnt have to take the CE into consideration
if you want to send a bullet further than what you or your gun can achieve .. just mail it
there is no such thing as too much ammo , unless you are on fire or over your head in water
rock on
Wrong, coriolis affects are the most when the bullet is in flight the longest time. Straight up is the answer. c. Do the math.
The question wasn’t when does coriolis effect matter. So stop with the monkey chatter. My longest best shot was by drone and it was across to time zones. Coriolis maters to modern weapons. So think bigger and don’t be a nigg_ _
Lol
Not into trick questions
I’ll hit my target thank you very much
Less you worry bout me
Haha good, may your bullets fly truer and faster than your enemies’ bullets. ?
Gandhi, go change your diaper.
Why? Did you drool in my diaper?
Sarge, I’ve been on ‘drills’ all week at the BOL. We took a break from it for today. I expect trouble this summer also.
Sarge; the lefties have trouble hitting anything out to 25 yards. no problem keeping them at bay.
Screw that teargass crap, bust out the live rounds
Ask the assclown who was hit in the head by a tear gas canister round, he might think it was a live round.
In 2012 Madurai knew the economy of his country was utterly doomed with a few years. He immediately outlawed guns. Now you know why. If we ever see immediate restrictions on gun ownership or 2nd amendment removed or suspended you better get fully ready as with 24-48 months this is exactly the next stage. A dictator in the making
Yes maduro knew his country was doomed because him and his pals stole everything fair and square and they plan to keep the loot.
I’m afraid I have run out of fucks to give. It just seems like shit like this is inevitable at this point- like that cliche’ about watching the train-wreck in super slow-mo.
If your out in public and don’t have your head on a swivel
I don’t know what to tell you
With as many threats we humans face on a daily basis , to not have your head in the game , is beyond my way of thinking these days
A truck or vehicle can only move in a forward or backward direction
Can’t move laterally
If your head and eyes and ears are on the job of servival in the outside world you are walking in,
Than run or evade laterally , perpendicular to the threat
Don’t stuff your self in a crowd of humanity where vehicles can enter
Etc
Maybe so many people are unaware of the daily threats that face us all every day
We see it even here , where dumb fucks still wonder why so many of us are armed
They still don’t get it , and won’t see the “truck” that’s headed for them , and very soon
Yea, some people still calling for guns to be outlawed here in the states,,,
I can tell you one thing for sure, if there is ever an attempt to cancel our right to bear, the last thing i will do is turn em in, regardless of my situation,
I was out on a small town square wine walk last night, where vehicle traffic was not stopped. Chided myself for staying too late, and having to walk back to my car in the dark. Usually more careful than that.
2isone, don’t worry about opsec so much, no one will miss you anyway
Fuck u Gandhi gi- I’m sure no one will miss you asshole.
Ghandi is one of those that obviously has a hatred for anyone not in his little inner circle.
We would not miss him in the least.
Also, I hate my inner circle too
A prepper site with no coverage of the Skagway earthquakes? Skagway is still being shaken by multiple aftershocks. A few days ago Skagway had a 6.3 and a 6.2 earthquake. Hundreds of substantial aftershocks. I hope our people up there are ok. Good luck folks.
Nope, we have real discussions here. See the one about Hillary Clinton blaming the Russians.. That’s important news……(rolling my eyes)…..
Him,
Thanks for the update!
Be Informed use to be our resident expert and he was good at informing all of us of what was going on or ready to explode in the earthquake world. His presence is sorely missed and his absence has been a bane. I read about the earthquakes up in Alaska and the many significant aftershocks. I hope they are all doing all right. I had a long and wonderful visit last night with one of my hunting buddies who was up there about a moon ago for a week in the wilderness in the middle of no-where. They used planes and snowmobiles to get around. Lived in very primitive conditions. He was praising the wonders of ‘blue boards’ in that bone-chillingly cold environment.

Only skags live in Skagway
They’ll never confiscate guns here. (COME IN THE FRONT DOOR) Even the hildabeast new better than that. But, the way they get your guns is by coming in the back door. What that means is they will start at the top…pass laws (executive orders) that will ban assault rifles. 90 days to turn them in. After that, if you still possess one, your a felon. Then, they’ll work there way down to automatic handguns/rifles, same way. Then they’ll finally make all handguns illegal. 90 days to turn them in, or your a felon. They then will have created 10’s of millions of criminals by default. Now were all in the horrible position of “you still have your gun, but don’t you dare use it….even in home defense. Because it will be YOU going to prison; not the criminal that broke in”….this is how it will play out. That’s what I mean by coming in the ‘backdoor’ for your guns.!!!!!
Uh, they already confiscated guns. The government confiscated guns in Louisiana during Katrina. Swat teams went door to door in some areas. Never say never. I learned that in the mid-60’s. They can’t pass a law taking away your freedom to choose. 1964 Civil Rights Act. They can’t pass a law to make America a non-White, non-Western country. The 1965 Immigration Act. It’s not your government. Say that over and over, until you finally get it. The government is run by Globalists and Marxists. They won’t disarm you because you are insignificant to them. You are not a threat to them. You are harmless to the Empire, and they know it.
Yes antique 308 win is just a placebo to make arm chair patriots feel safe. Thanks NRA
Did I mention a few things about that country awhile back. Its a beta test to see how bad it can get. The plan is have it done here.
Read Him’s post. He explains it well.. Good one Him. You just got your ass secured on SHTF.
American white men are not venezuelans. They carry AR15’S to public protest and the government is afraid of them. Any dictator declaring martial law over the continental US would be the biggest mistake ever made in the history of this country. This is my observation.
HCKS.
The difference is those folks in Katrina where not willing to die in order to keep their guns. It wouldn’t work that way with me. Of course no one can get to my door without climbing two fences and walking a 1/4 mile.
Yep,,,
I have had a lot of good years, rather die for something than sitting drooling on myself,
Hathcock made a 2500 yard kill and 1000 yards kills easily and he was a shitty shot.
Hathcocks 2500 shot was a fluke. He was sighting in a .50 cal BMG M2 when a VC stood up by a river. He would have missed if Charlie hadn’t finished filling up his water bottles and stood up.
Yes Old Guy, this country is a different terrain.
I would be especially brutal to a gang of govt scum coming to take weapons. I’ve been waiting on them. They better tell their wives n youngens goodbye.
Change the name of Venezuelan currency from the Bolivar to the Chavez or Maduro. Worthless leaders should have worthless currencies named after them! Bolivar deserves better! 1500 obamas for a Big Mac?
Some of my libertarian brothers here are embarrassing to be associated with. What we see in this film is a CIA-destabilized regime has some of its cops getting the sh*t beat out of them by a molotov throwing mob. In the melee the driver tries to save his buddy by driving, slowly, through some of the Soros-funded thugs.
This is not unjust repression, it’s an orchestrated revolution and the authorities trying to hang on.
The alt-right–that I generally support–can’t bring itself to be honest about Venezuela.
But but but they’re Communists! They “love” people! They’d never hurt them!
9___9 meanwhile back in reality…
You know you don’t actually need guns against well established stationary targets unless you’re doing frontal assaults (mumble hit and fade guerilla arson…)
The only IQ problem I see is located at post titled, “Eisenkreutz”. (Eisenshit-for-brains).
“Divide and conquer”– most productive game in the books… Brought to you by Eisenshit. (Paid for by the elites).
Perhaps the driver of the truck would be less inclined to run over people if they weren’t throwing fire bombs at the vehicle. I hope the CIA is paying the protesters enough to cover their injuries.
Since year and day the CIA is trying to organize REGIMECHANGE in so many country’s in the world, it started allready at the end of WW II in Korea wenn the US government wanted to have more influence overthere wenn they imposed the corrupt South Koreans the execute 100.000 of theyr own South Koreans citizens standing in a row in front of ditches, what provoked the Korean war, hit ware the Korean commie’s who fought the Japanese occupier, remember Indonesia in ’65, Regimechange, remember Vietnam, Afghanista remember who organized with Osama Bin Laden, CIA Operativname Tim Osman Al CIAda, the terrorist database, all the time the same medling in other country’s business, thats a warcrime, remember Grenada, Panama, Tunisia, Lybia, Syria, all the time for stealing other people goods, that’s you Americans with your boots on the ground bringing BS Democracy, Actually Venezuela it’s excactly the same !

A bow and arrow makes for a good weapon…when guns cannot be had.
Hey Pete, I wish your country the best. would love to find a non Americanized , feminized woman from your country, or brazil. need a real match maker , not the internet cons.
Loved the video on sewing up wounds! Really good skill to have but it is a lot harder than it looks. I have the stuff to do it and some books but you really need formal training. I’ve tried to get living subjects to practice on, but no matter how drunk I get them, they immediately sober up when they figure out what I am up to! Just kidding!(kind of). One thing you can’t stock enough of is burn ointment. So many things involve open fires. Another good thing to have several of are tourniquets. I keep one in the car and several at home. You may only need it once in your life but when you do, you’ll need it desperately!
