  • So,

    1. Fuck Nazis

    2. Not defending a Nazi but let me give a little more context on the guns they found:

    2a. Everything found in the car is pretty fucky. I highly doubt he actually had a Fully auto M4 rifle, it’s probably just some variant of AR-15,but if it is a fully auto rifle, dude is extra fucked and could be looking at a 20yr prison sentence just for that. Ruger pistol could be anything, but is probably your typical handgun especially if he had 3 mags.

    2b. The firearms at home are a mix. A Glock pistol is a Glock pistol, 9mm is no small caliber. The Smith and Wesson MP-15 rifle and Walther Pistol Model P22 sound/look scary (the MP-15 is even modeled after the AR-15), but these both shoot .22lr which is more of a sporting/target practice round. Here is a picture for comparison, the larger round on the right is .223 or 5.56 which is what the “m4a1” they found would shoot. Of course, these are still firearms and are still lethal, but it’s kind of like the difference between a box cutter and a k-bar: both are deadly, but one is deadlier than the other. The Iver Johnson Arms & Cycle Works 12-gauge shotgun is probably your typical hunting shotgun. Shotguns have fallen out of favor with the military/ law enforcement as they aren’t as effective as rifles, but they are still used for hunting/sport shooting.

    All of this to say: of the 6 guns they found he has only 3 of them were the spooky/scary assault type. This guy (personally) wasn’t trying to arm a small militia and is an even greater idiot because all of those guns/ammo/accessories he owned probably cost a couple thousand dollars and he just threw that all away.

    He is a Nazi though, so he was already fucking stupid to begin with ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • I’m not big of naming anything after traitors, but out of all of them Confederate General Bragg arguably did more to help the union than the confederacy.

    Bragg is generally considered among the worst generals of the Civil War. Most of the battles he engaged in ended in defeat. Bragg was extremely unpopular with both the officers and ordinary men under his command, who criticized him for numerous perceived faults, including poor battlefield strategy, a quick temper, and overzealous discipline. Bragg has a generally poor reputation with historians, though some point towards the failures of Bragg’s subordinates, especially Major General and former Bishop Leonidas Polk—a close ally of Davis and known enemy of Bragg—as more significant factors in the many Confederate defeats under Bragg’s command. The losses suffered by Bragg’s forces are cited as highly consequential to the ultimate defeat of the Confederacy.
