8 months of observations working at gun shop/in-door range.

I did get upset recently with one customer that is a 9/11 Truther. I just can't stand them.

I always go with...

"So your basic premise is that George Bush (43), who we generally accept is a D student, orchestrated and executed the largest, most elaborate and complex conspiracy in the history of modern times and did so in such a comprehensive way that he either obligated every politician into a position of participation or fear or retribution and nobody in credible media is willing to break the greatest story since Watergate despite all of the fabulous evidence everywhere on the internet because the Bush family network is just that completely brilliant, amazingly powerful and all controlling?"

Feel free to use that.

What you fail to realize is that the Bushes are reptilian and the reptilians really control the New World Order who orchestrated the attacks.

It's not so much that Bush did it but the military industrial complex. Because Chaney needed a war to profit from and Bush Sr. was head of the CIA!

What's scary is I remember reading an article back in the early 00s where apparently there was a similar plan in the 60s. To have an excuse to invade Cuba there was a plan to rig airplanes with remote controls and fly them into buildings in downtown Miami and blame it on the Cuban Communists. The plan was ultimately dropped. Wish I could find the article today. Can't even remember what newspaper it was in.

The plan was called Operation Northwoods. It was a plan to stage attacks on ourselves to drum up support to invade Cuba.

I’d like to have you working at a LGS near me. Most of the BS I hear at guns shops come from the employees not the customer. It’s either BS or they simply can answer basic questions about the products they carry.

Well let's get out to the range with a pallet of ammo and find out.

I tried to be diplomatic and told him, "If all you do is take it to the range once in a while, it's probably okay, but I wouldn't trust its durability under actual combat conditions."

He pretty much doubled down and said he'd trust his life to it.

I clammed up at that point. No use arguing with a fool lest everyone else mistake which person in the conversation is really the fool.

Yep. At a gunshop,

Half the dumbasses working there or shopping there don’t even know what keepers are.

That’s how you tell who the non veterans are.

The kid was trying to install an overlong rail section on a MagPul MOE handguard. He asked me why it wouldn't tighten all the way down. I said, "Ya need a shorter rail section."

I could see daylight under the rail. Clearly we are not dealing with a rocket scientist.

as far as the bushes ? just google Prescott Bush nazi financial connection (HW father)

this is one of the more fair articles I reckon
https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...secondworldwar

he was not hanging out with Hitler (why I said financial) kinda thing so read the article read some others draw your own conclusions
like Clintons and the Russians they were huge financial connections and power gains and so on so nothing new here with them and the history of being in bed to make money with the enemy

no idea where the kids and grandkids stood ? but the family has the power they do for a reason so won't pin the sins of the father on the kids BUT most power families the apple doesn't fall far from the tree so making money off war and enemies is nothing new
