Very painfully. Laws usually allow pistols to operate with removable magazines still. If they want to brick your weapon they should buy it off you.

They're throwing an MG and short range missile launcher on every harbor tug they can find. In terms of capable warships we absolutely still outnumber and out mass them.

Their own site. First of all, political scientists don't use "left center" and "right center." Because that puts a loaded word first and effectively erases anything after it. Leaving only left and right.

Second their left/right scheme puts objective facts based reporting in the "left center" category. Organizations like NYT, BBC, WAPO, etc. and in "right center" they're sneaking in libertarian organizations that want to destroy the federal government and empower corporations in its place. Which gives them credibility they don't deserve while conveniently painting objective reporting as left wing. They even rated a GOP campaign organization as "right center". It's literal political advertisement.

Third, their credibility ratings are highly subjective and rely on cherry picked evidence. For example NYT and Guardian have similar numbers of failed fact checks. But NYT gets highly credible while Guardian gets mixed. The same level as Breitbart; who has double the number of failed fact checks.

Really the more you actually check, the worse it gets.

Yes but so many people are running with the idea that pretty women in the military are just PR for recruiting. Which is reductive to their actual service.

Are you operating three accounts?

Or, you could weld a ten round magazine into place and go about your business as not a criminal. There's always the choice to be responsible.

They're not even loss leaders though.

Blocking it does not stop it's misinformation. I'm not opposed to bots or it's layout in a comment. I'm opposed to having a blatantly biased source masquerading as an unbiased gatekeeper of credibility. You cannot block that.

No they actually fight. Most of these women have videos of being in combat and some have died. The idea that pretty women are only in uniform as a PR thing needs to die in a fire.

That's jury nullification. And every district does it's best to make sure juries never hear about it. Some have even outlawed it. But it's a natural consequence of the jury system. If you can't nullify the charges as a jury then you aren't a jury, you're a rubber stamp.
