That’s the even bestest part. The jewelery companies intentionally undervalued the pieces in order to lower the cost of insuring it all. The jewelers are now suing Brinks because their insurance will only pay out the insured amount, which was about $10m. Brinks is countersuing the jewelers for breach of contract and fraud for claiming 10x less than actual value when paying for shipping.

Honestly I hope everyone involved gets fucked out of house and home lmfaoooo

LRADs were cool and new back when I graduated high-school around 2009.

17 years behind the ball seems right for the vitamin c commando.

Wrong. The alternative is hunting the guilty on the streets. The judicial system forgets that it is the alternative, not the original. The old ways of generational blood feuds and public dismemberment are only a few hungry days away at any time.

The entire article is written as if this woman was a completely incapable, helpless invalid.

How did she even get that far up the mountain without her boyfriend/guide/hike chaperone telling her to put her left foot in front of her right foot? Clearly this attendant should have realized she needed to be carried and bottle fed. He didn’t even complain for her about how cold it was when she was getting sleepy. Very sloppy work.

There is at least one in person interview with a representative of the ATF. In my neck of the woods, that means someone down at the local sherrif department.

I never said it was “easy”. It’s not. As the other guy pointed out, it’s a months long, expensive, and personally invasive process to obtain a FFL. That being said, certain individuals are highly motivated to go through the process anyways. My original point was that the entire process becomes streamlined so long as you don’t mind presenting yourself as a conservative. I’ve heard of people being turned down for a years old social media post, but somehow the redhats don’t run into the same issues.

I’m well aware of the difference. FFLs aren’t just for actual business owners. Plenty of private collectors run a “business” of reselling firearms specifically in order to make obtaining a FFL a lot easier. It also is possible to show that you are qualified for one with previous military or law enforcement service, as a firearms instructor, or simply with enough determination and charm around your local police academy.

Even worse, you can sidestep most of those laws simply by buying out of state with a FFL. Sherrif departments around here hand them out to anyone even remotely conservative. I have a friend from deep oakland who bought a maga hat specifically for when he went to apply for his FFL. Lo and behold, legal suppressors, extended magazines, and all the modified guns he can afford.

Well to be fair seals are a special kind of asshole among assholes. Some of the coast guard are chill, and the vast majority of the active forces are literally 18 and 19 year old children. Literally too useless to get an actual job. The only ones that stick around are either the assholes among assholes or the functionally unemployable.
