Yeah it depends on the circumstances of your living situation and firearm training.

With a shotgun, you likely have six shots until having to reload one at a time and some believe this comes at a huge disadvantage, but my guess is that if the situation comes to gunfire, you won’t need them all when dealing with the average criminal. If you are shooting #00 buckshot, you are looking at about nine pellets per round that should strike in a group of about 2 inches at 7 yards. Even if you are using birdshot, you still get a group of roughly the same size to the length of the average hallway. Although, past 15-20 yards shot becomes terminally ineffective for two reasons. First, the pattern size expands to the point that a large portion of your shot will miss the target and the resulting wound is less concentrated. Secondly, round shot is not very ballistically efficient and loses energy fast. If the engagement distance extends past 20 yards, it would be advisable to switch to a slug. Another thing to consider is #00 buck pellets will weigh about 480 grains, which is about nine times heavier than a 5.56 round. To push this cargo out the barrel it takes lots of energy, and that push goes both ways. In short, shotguns kick hard, about 3-4x harder than an AR-15.

With an AR-15-style rifle, it's typically lighter, offers less recoil than a 12-gauge shotgun, get 30 rounds from a standard magazine, and reloading takes no more than 5 seconds. Shooting at 7 yards, you should be able to put several of those rounds into a 4-inch group in pretty short order. AR-15 rounds are light, fast and hit hard. They also have a larger tendency to over penetrate, although, tend to break apart when they hit hard barriers. But there is no guarantee that they will hit something hard if you miss your target. They might go through the drywall, insulation, sheathing and siding of your house. Then again, they might not. On the side of safety; Know your target and what is beyond it. Also, hit your target.

For my personal choice; I err on the side of shotgun. with altering my rounds from bird shot to slug in the mag tube, I have a variety of choices at my disposal.

i'm so glad your taking measures on this topic. iv'e seen extreme biases from moderators within reddit's neutral subs and extreme cases of nuked comment sections [removed] creating eco chambers or criticizing the subs agenda.

but my question is how can "No removal of good faith and on-topic posts/comments" work when the mods believe that your comment is "negative" or "hate filled"? for instance I criticize say the lbgt community about advocating for children and hormone therapy. obviously it's a heated topic that some strongly believe or disagree with. but it would be based on personal beliefs of it being bigotry and deleting such comments.

also we need to talk about moderators (including yourself) that having a bias monopoly with popular subs could lead to eco chambers within neutral subs or turning into a "spez" moderator that removes and edits comments of wrongful thinking.

thousands of reddit creeps coming out of the wood work to advocate parents to buy their 12 year old a sex toy. by poestal in MeanwhileOnReddit

what no, thats not what I was getting at at all. what i'm saying is that because of the internet younger adolescents have been desencitized due to the pornographic content at such a young age that just like a drug addict; look for stronger more provocative content in order to satisfy the urge. That children at certain ages should not be condoned to participate or engage in activities due to their immaturity and not able to grasp those concepts essentially corrupting a childs thinking because of it.

thats why in school there is age appropriate content in teaching because you don't show 5 year olds the atrocities of war.

coming from a gun nut I can tell you a few reasons why some reasons they jam.

they're not efficient with them. alot of school shooters and crazies just buy or steal them from parents or family members. so you see them limp wristing to holly hell and having the guns recoil control them than them controlling the guns recoil. which in turn leads to stove piping or double feed.

cheap ammo to use during the shooting that has more failure to fire.

using "poverty ponies" or guns that are so cheap that they fail just by having a different magazine or just constantly jam.

firing at a high rate to the point where the gun gums up.

buying new that they fail because of manufacturing imperfections during the assembly and not breaking it in.

I'm firmly of the option that the freedoms of children should only be limited when absolutely necessary, which I don't think it is at all here.

children need structure, guidance, and boundaries in place. you are a parent, their "caregiver" not their friend. if they have full reigns on how to be raised then it's going to be nothing more than junkfood dinners and videogames over homework and proceeds to get worse as they age. if you chose to let a child to dictate your household and let themselves rule then you are no longer a caregiver or parent.

Explain to me what's so bad about buying kids sex toys. They're gonna masturbate anyways, why not make sure they do it with products designed or it.

change the word sex toy to pornography or sex, and you would see how ludicrous this sounds. their are certain things that a child should not be shown or advocated to do when their brain is still developing or until age appropriate. also their is a huge desensitization with adolescents about pornography within the modern world to the point where they go into further taboo subjects and vanilla sex is no longer satisfying.

let me be clear; im totally ok with the "birds and the bees talk" and whats going on with their body, but not childs first dildo type of parenting.

You think it’s fine for 12 year olds to view pornography? I don’t think it should be normalized for a child to be using vibrating sex toys which the internet searches alone for will bring up a plethora of search results accompanied by other things she can’t grasp. As her father he absolutely has a right to dictate what she should be able to view on the internet and saying otherwise is absurd. On the other hand OP can handle the situation better so he doesn’t make it seem like his daughter should be ashamed by her sexuality and have both parents sit down and talk through this situation in depth and show that exploring these feelings is healthy. But letting a 12 year old roam the internet for porn and vibrators alone is ludicrous. OP does not, in fact, have to support the fact that his 12 year old wants a vibrator... that doesn’t make him some tyrannical patriarch, it means he doesn’t believe his 12 year old is ready for that sort of thing and in general I think it would be hard for any father to grasp with a daughter of that age. That’s my 2 cents.

wait a darn minute:

"fled in a car and called 911 shortly afterward to say he was involved in the shooting at Chabad of Poway, San Diego Police Chief David Nisleit told reporters.

When an officer reached the man on a roadway, "the suspect pulled over, jumped out of his car with his hands up and was immediately taken into custody," Nisleit said."

"An off-duty Border Patrol agent inside the synagogue in the city of Poway, just over 20 miles (32 kilometers) north of San Diego, opened fire as the shooter fled but didn't hit him,"

So like all of these cowards, he expected a gun free zone and was very disturbed when someone shot back at him.

He called the police to complain that his planned victims had the courage to fight back.

honestly and truly; I commend you speaking out and voicing your true opinions on such subjects, if I may critique on certain subjects.

But then it occoured to me. They're kids. It's 12 year olds trying to show how special they are and they will do ridiculous things for attention.... So I let them be, they will grow out of it.

Yes I totally agree that it's some form of adolescent faze such as the gothic/wicken faze just to be different and eccentric; but what I have a problem with is when these "kids" do not grow out of it. these childlike college students or much older adult children who now believe that they are a legitimate subclass of genderism, advocating science and scholars to rule in their favor.

Then there's troll accounts making statements so illogical.....That's not the kind of person one should pay attention to.

that's poe's law theory in a nutshell, people stating the most outlandish things that no one can tell from fiction to nonfiction and that enforces the extremist and outlandish views of certain subgroups. and that can be dangerous. like think of the 4chans "ok" symbol and drinking milk ironically insinuating that they were white nationalist and skinheads logos/signals but when the white nationalist and skinheads start to utilize it, it no longer becomes ironic.

Also the past of white folks isn't exactly flattering so I can see why some may be salty at us about it, but who cares. As long as white people don't get stabbed by being white people, but it's usually the opposite. Black people at points struggling to pull their arse out of ghettos doesn't really help it either. I'm sure if they had proper education and less disadvantages from the get-go they would do just as well as white people. How do I know? From other countries where being black is nothing more than a different skin colour, because they could start out in a place with little to no racism with the right resources giving them more of an equal chance than countries like the US ever did.

I don't believe you understand why there is discourse between races in the US. black people were legitimately slaves until late 1870's and no more than second class citizens until 1950 and they thoroughly believe in having reparations due to there misfortune just as how natives were given reparations. and I agree to a point but only to the ones who truly suffered during those trials. but I also don't believe in throwing money at a problem as a solution because now we have this subculture where people who get gov. assistance are no longer willing to work (especially in reservations). and there is also a subculture that has tainted the black population. the ghetto culture has destroyed the black community with drug dealing, clubbing, hoeing, rap careers, gang lifestyle, or gaming gov. assistance being a more acceptable route than doing an honest mans work "slaving away" and being family orientated. and for black people chastizing others going against that subculture and calling them "uncle toms".

I personally enjoy living in a country where we're developed enough for proper support and education of the people and where only special units of the police and rangers carry guns as both our suicides and murder percentages are way below the US.

I disagree wholeheartedly. I could get really into this topic to the point where I could write a book but for now; the police and government agencies don't have your personal well-being in their priority list. the us murder rate has steadily decreased thoughout the years without removing firearms from law abiding citizens. when you look into the murder rate, the majority belongs in gang on gang violence. the suicide rate does not change whether it be from pills, firearm, knife, or other means; only the tool used.

TLDR;

There's been a public records request by two people for the names and addresses of people who turned in their bumpstock. The reasoning seems to be that they intend...

"to create a searchable database and map of Washington state to overlay the locations. The public has a right to know that these dangerous devices may have been in neighborhoods that they live in and who has previously owned such devices."

The two people requesting the records are interesting. One is named "Yati Arguna" and it seems to be a fake name. The other is "Paul Holgate" and he seems to actually exist.

voat became what it is today because of what reddit did after pao.

I don't know if you were their during that whole fiasco but average redditors flocked over their in droves to the point where their servers crashed for like 2 weeks and they returned back to reddit and the ones who couldn't remained and that is what you see today. they took over to the point where the owner just gave up on it and they retaliated and banned against anyone "normal".

and you see what reddit has became today because of "pao's" censorship.(pao may have been more of a scapegoat in order for reddits implementation)

ok so shitredditors say is gone now by that definition. along with memes because that could be used as offensively shitposting and i'm sure there's multiple other subs that could "loosly" fit that definition.

Do you see where i'm going with this? it's only allowed what you deem fit by your own personal beliefs/opinions or something is banned to being offensive by your personal beliefs/opinions. And thats not to say that coontown may or may not have been utilized to test the waters as bait of censoring due to inactivity. and you proved their hypothesis. I'm saying this was a bad judgement on your part with how you responded.

sorry i'm late to this discussion but; is mocking considered a bannable offense now? what about mocking peoples political beliefs thats on top sadits lists now? that could be used into your low tier "pyramid of debate". that to me seems extremely counter-intuitive to what I thought saidit strives to be what reddit once was. a place for differing opinions regardless of good or bad intensions.

And to simply shun it away from the public eye and pretending it doesn't exist in the real world based on personal opinions or views does nothing to change peoples minds but drives their hatred into more isolated eco-chambers. I mean if we're cleaning up shop then put zoophilia on that list because that extremely offends me; giving them the platform that allows discussion of possibly harming animals to satisfy their sexual desires. but I don't want you to ban them.

So in my opinion you have just opened a can that you can no longer close of exploiting a loophole that can now be abused to further peoples personal values and to shun people of differing opinions.

no; their shouldn't be political "safespaces" for either side of the debate. we should have discourse of our personal beliefs challenged in order to keep each-other grounded, rather than going to each individuals ecochambers or silencing others opinions on neutral subs/forums.

reddit has become the far left tumblr esque eco-chamber and voat has become the far right 4/8 chans eco-chamber. saidit should be the middle ground.

well I was thinking like the big holiday months. oct. would be of course horror genre or say christmas could just be christmas themed like gremlins, die hard, christmas vacation, ect. so if this is april/spring it could be comedy "fools" or spring themed. just a suggestion.

i would leave it to the family to make a decision and leave the state out of the picture.

yeah thats something that I agree with; let the families choose due to their personal context of the situation rather than states legislators making laws forbidding to do so due to religious or morality sake.

thank you for your time and answering my questions.

birth defects like cyclopia 1/16,000 probability. trisomy18 1/5,000, anencephaly 1/3,350 , CHD 1/4, and thousands of others that are potentialy fatal, or there's others like fibrodysplasia or Epidermolysis bullosa that aren't potentially lethal but leads to a very short lifespan of nothing but misery to the diagnosed (there's a lot more than just downs).

I bring up my last comment meaning would you take in an orphan with a disability because they are a huge percentage of neglected and unwanted.

and i'm saying that because I always hear people virtue signaling that they would care for unwanted children rather than abortion but thats rarely true. not only is it very rare that they adopt but if/when they do they very much choose a child within 5 year age range thats perfectly healthy rather than an older child.

and IYO what about medical 'necessity'? what about fetal growth abnormalities that surpasses the 4-5 week deadline? I mean first trimester screening is completed between weeks 11 and 13 of pregnancy, and blood work and ultra sound can only show so much during the fetus developing stages. are you advocating a child be born with a severe birth defect?

and since we are on this topic, If you don't mind commenting as well with this question; do you or will your first choice be to adopt rather than having a child of your own? would you take on a child with a mental disability? if not why?

In my opinion moderators of certain subs have had superiority complexes and has shun down apposing view points against what they believe and shut down any conversation. therefor I believe that there should be some way to vote out power tripping mods for the good of the sub or some other form to balance out how mods are treating their user base especially when its a neutral based sub.

I've been a redditor for about 5, even participated in multiple reddit gift exchanges. I came because of how reddit handled the chch situation. they shutdown/quarantined multiple subs, from memes, firearms, pewdiepie, or anything that was deemed offensive like gore or dark humor. thousands of subs were locking any information about what was happening due to the fear of being banned, reddit started lurking into pm's of people in order to get them banned. it was just crazy even subs like goodcopfreedonut were locking and shutting down.

just became a new member with a few questions. I know porn is not allowed but is death gore and violence allowed on this platform? how about piracy? lewd and crude humor? firearms? animal killing? will you allow others of unpopular thought to voice their opinion or are they allowed their own sub? what is your plan about other subs brigading another? or having certain subs that pertains to brigading other subs?
