Great a high volume arms dealer is back on the streets. Smuggling assault weapons in to this country. Anyone who thinks that is good news? It contrary to the political statements of candidates who beg for gun control.
Hopefully, she'll decide to come out of the locker room and stand and sing the national anthem from here on out.
I’m sure there is an understanding that this won’t happen.
I thought more people with guns is a good thing? That is the message that is always put out....so I guess you're saying this is a good thing.
I'd like to see the Vegas odds on that.
OTOH, Paul Whelan must be wondering who he pissed off in Washington.
I hope more people in the stands at sporting events do the same. Instead of eating, drinking, talking, looking at their phone/texting, walking around, going to the bathroom or otherwise not being bothered with the whole thing.
It seems that the newer generations are being taught that our country ain't so great and so they don't care. It's sad really.
I have no issues with the government working to secure here release. I do find it hypocritical that these people talk about hun control then release a guy convicted of smuggling a high volume of assault weapons in to this country.I thought more people with guns is a good thing? That is the message that is always put out....so I guess you're saying this is a good thing.
So the message is a contradiction, but these are the same people who hire 87k IRS agents. The IRS who has stockpiled more arms and ammunition at this point an the Army.
Yeah a Russian smuggler is trustworthy, come on Bob. I’m tired of mass shootings.
Well thankfully you seem well sourced.
False. The Internal Revenue Service will not be hiring 87,000 armed agents. Job adverts posted on social media are for special agents in the IRS’s Criminal Investigation unit. There are currently about 2,100 special agents in this unit, and there were 81,600 total IRS employees in fiscal year 2021.

Social media users are claiming that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is hiring 87,000 new armed IRS agents. This claim is false. The job listing being shared is for IRS Criminal Investigation Special Agents, and currently only about 2,100 special agents carry firearms, according to IRS’s...

Oh so just 87000 regular irs agents. Wow that is a relief!Well thankfully you seem well sourced.

See my other post, then you simply say no instead of making a bad deal.
I don't think that is the case. I think the newer generation with access to more unfiltered informaton, can look at the United States far more critically than other generations. As a guy who grew up towards the end of the Vietnam War, the current "newer generation" is probably as close to that "newer generation" than any other in my lifetime.
But, every time I hear statements like yours, it reminds me of this snippet....
(although this was done a few years ago).
You mean like the "unfiltered" information found on twitter before Musk bought it? Got it.
Apparently Elon isn't finding that balance as easy as he thought it would be. Go figure.

I feel horrible for Whelan and his family. Lord help her if she ever pulls her protest shenanigans courtside again or fails to come out. I am not holding my breath though on it.
Audit reports showed over 50k weapons and 5million rounds of ammunition. So something doesn’t add up. We’ll agree to disagree. Enjoy my friend, we don’t need to continue this type of discussion on here.Well thankfully you seem well sourced.

The response of Whelan’s family to the Griner news was beyond gracious. Yes, he’s a political prisoner, no “apparently” about it.
Any American who visits Russia when they don’t need to is flat out certifiably nuts. Let Russia rot.
You opened the can of worms, but clearly you didn't really read to much into it which is fine. Maybe read up some more on the division that has those weapons, the size of it, and the history of buying ammunition. Maybe you'll learn something my friend.....check your sources being one of them. Good stuff.Audit reports showed over 50k weapons and 5million rounds of ammunition. So something doesn’t add up. We’ll agree to disagree.

Oh I am sure he isn't. On the other hand, there is a difference between finding balance and suppression and censorship.Apparently Elon isn't finding that balance as easy as he thought it would be. Go figure.

The special agents that carry are considered sworn "law enforcement" agents. So I also imagine some of the people they track down aren't wearing suits and ties and hiding behind lawyers...but again this was all drummed up by some bad reporting and social media duping.
IRS special agent job ad misrepresented online
After Senate Democrats this month passed a $740 billion economic package, which includes nearly $80 billion for the IRS, social media users shared the false claim that all new employees in the agency will be required to carry guns.

Yeah, a arms smuggler for one who smuggled a small quantity of cannibis into the country. Great trade, like trading Tom Brady for Sean Clifford. You couldn't get Whelan too? That's just ridiculous. So we put a gun smuggler who is known to sell to US enemies back on the streets for a person who smuggled a small amount of cannibis into their country? Russians are laughing at us all day today. Listen, I get it , she was not illegally detained , like some will have you believe, but her sentence was excessive, even for Russia's standards. But you couldn't make a better trade than that? Great job...............
Oh, I don't know for sure but some people may not be friendly when an auctioneer show up to sell their property for back taxes.
I see you believe the nonsense reports by anyone with an agenda. As if the media hasn’t been spinning turds into roses for years to protect our crooked government.You opened the can of worms, but clearly you didn't really read to much into it which is fine. Maybe read up some more on the division that has those weapons, the size of it, and the history of buying ammunition. Maybe you'll learn something my friend.....check your sources being one of them. Good stuff.
Like I said we have to just disagree since it’s obvious we don’t have the same views
Wut?

If by agenda you mean pointing out that they have existed for decades....you caught me.

Never know; the government/flag which she protested (and has every right to) is also the same one that prevented her from rotting away in a gulag. She may come to show appreciation for that during the National Anthem. Or not, I don't care either way.
Sickening! I just realized how good a guy Micah Parsons is.
The agenda is not yours it’s the media’s.
I do most of our yearly work with the government. So of this work is top secret at places most Americans don’t think exist. I can guarantee some has been lied about and covered up for years. No agency is more hypocritical than our own government and most of the snakes involved in it.
