You don't have to worry, because you're not in the United States, and you're absolutely no threat to me. So stop fixating on it. Your firearm envy is boring.
I own a Horizon's Lord. Whats the castrated little beige thing you have again? Named after a Disney character?
So Amercian credentials established. While I do own a Horizon's Lord, paid for more than one, obviously it is with my friends in Ukraine. As is my good 4 axis EDM cutter and some other toys. ADHD needs a lot of fuel.
Sure you do. You're quite the pathological liar, aren't you? "Made my money while young" check "My sniper rifle is with my friends in Urkraine" check "I own increasing amounts of the United States" check "I spend all day on ET posting" about the only thing true.
You are just old and have a bad memory. I have talked about my AMR experience lots and you will see from a long time ago I talked about fabricating my own toys. But you guys with your fancy store bought ammunition... Well what can I say? Maybe your buddy Wildchild will be up for one of your sucker bets? If you need to grift somebody, he is an easy mark. Now don't let me keep you from doing the work they pay your for.

Yeh, this is what a Canadian man does to defend the homeland. Trudeau Teeters in Canada After Deputy’s Scathing Resignation https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...nada-after-freeland-pens-scathing-resignation
Not only Trudeau is teetering... but the Canadian dollar as well. Canada’s Dollar Slumps to Covid-Era Low on Political Turmoil https://finance.yahoo.com/news/canada-dollar-slumps-covid-era-154116564.html The Canadian dollar slid to its lowest level since March 2020 as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government slips into crisis after the shocking resignation of his finance minister. The currency extended its recent losses to slide another 0.5% on Tuesday past 1.43 per US dollar, the weakest level since the Covid-19 pandemic first shuttered cities. The loonie has been declining as the US’s northern neighbor’s economy lags and officials struggle to come up with a plan to respond to President-elect Donald Trump’s tariff threats. The latest political turmoil “is symptomatic of the greater troubles facing the currency with the economy underperforming the US — and now facing the threat of tariffs,” said Skylar Montgomery Koning, a foreign-exchange strategist at Barclays. “We see continued pressure on the loonie.” On Monday, Chrystia Freeland, a former journalist who’s been finance minister since 2020, stepped down from her post with a letter that laid out her opposition to the prime minister’s push for short-term spending on voter-pleasing measures like tax breaks that expand the budget deficit. After Trump’s victory in the US, Freeland was picked to lead a cabinet group to develop a strategy to respond to US policies. Trump has threatened tariffs of 25% on Canada, which Deutsche Bank strategist Michael Puempel sees as more likely to be enacted following the recent political angst. “Simply put, unless there is more stability in Canadian political leadership, we believe Trump is likely to maintain his maximalist approach to trade with one of the US’s largest trading partners,” he wrote in a note to clients on Tuesday. He said his base case is that Canada has an early election in the first quarter of 2025 and ends up with tighter fiscal policy. For the loonie, that’s only adding to pressures as the Bank of Canada lowers borrowing costs — leading markets to anticipate a widening interest-rate gap with the US. Earlier on Tuesday, inflation fell below the central bank’s target for the second time in three months, offering vindication for policymakers’ aggressive cuts. “The Canadian economy is skating on thin ice at this point and it’s getting worse with the political turmoil there,” Jim Caron, chief investment officer of cross-asset solutions at Morgan Stanley Investment Management, said in an interview. The political situation is weighing on the currency on top of the Canada-US rate gap, he added. Implied volatility on the Canadian dollar spiked Tuesday to the highest in more than a year on mounting political risks. With “holiday liquidity” driving things, the currency can even weaken to 1.4668 per US dollar in the coming weeks, according to Brad Bechtel, global head of FX at Jefferies. That level was last seen on March 19, 2020. The currency has fallen more than 7% against the US dollar this year so far, on path to have the worst year since 2018. Hedge funds boosted their bets against the loonie in the week ending Dec. 10, according to the latest Commodity Futures Trading Commission data. The Canadian dollar “is suffering devaluation by a thousand cuts,” wrote Kit Juckes, head of currency strategy at Societe Generale, in a Tuesday note. “The Bank of Canada has taken away rate support, tariff uncertainty weighs and the government is struggling to stay unified.”
It is good in some ways that Canada entered its world of hurt while Biden was president. The lefties are fully prepared to frame things as though everything was groovy in Canada but then then the American Orange Man came back and brought misery to Canada. That is not even remotely true. They reached the limits of their immigration madness and their economic policy madness all by themselves and Biden never dreamed of anything other than giving them anything they wanted, so they got a full dose of being able to work with a lefty American president and if Biden or Kamala had been elected they still continue on their downcurve. It's amazing the way American lefties think that the American electoral college system is an undemocratic scam because presidents sometimes get elected without the popular vote -and think Canada is the democratic mecca of the new world. Meanwhile Trudeau sits there in office and his party took only about 40% of the vote and that is down to 22% or so now (or was the last time I looked in October). So Trudeau's Liberal Party is VERY much a minority party. He is only able to form a government because the Lib Dem Party joins with them. (might not be true any day now though). Trump can and will work out a deal with Trudeau. But pleasing Trump is not Trudeau's biggest problem. His biggest problem is Canadians scratching their head and asking what they have to lose by voting for Poilevre's Conservative Party. That's a Canadian problem, not Trump induced.
