Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* Well, here's a real special guy; another confused individual who represents the pinnacle of Republican "reasoning." Yeah, I know, it's not really true that those two words that begin with and r and an e really belong together, but, hey, check this guy out. He's at one of Trump's brownshirt liberating "Give Me Liberty And Give Me Death!" protests. He believes, if one is to believe his sign, that COVID-19 is a lie. It says that right on his sign. It's even spelled correctly. Give him extra kudos for that. He underlined the "lie" for extra emphasis, too. Yet, there he is, d... more »

Want A Perfect Concealed Carry Pistol? Check Out The Glock 43
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, * Subcompact guns, like subcompact automobiles, are designed to fulfill a very narrow mission set. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *Concealed-carry handguns are highly specialized handguns with one mission: actively defend the user until the user is clear of the threat or the threat is eliminated. In situations with other guns present, their limitations make them purely defensive in nature.

Russia Wanted To Use This Big Fighter To Kill B-52 Bombers

One of its solutions was the very large Tu-128. The Soviet Union had extraordinarily lengthy borders that were difficult to patrol against American nuclear bombers and spy planes.
