the dude in the tweet is spencer cox, the idiot that said that, and allows campus carry

[–] Chivera@lemmy.world 9 points 16 hours ago

He should have engraved "Epstein files?" On one of them.

Wow crazy. What about the Epstein files though? Trump rapes children and needs to be held accountable.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 12 hours ago

kirk wanted it released so trump had him fall on a bullet.

"One casing was found with the complete works of William Shakespeare engraved on it"

"Breaking News! Bullet with Quran engraved on it, found at crime scene"

[–] NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

“Bullet casing found with the entire script of The Bee Movie hand written in calligraphy on it.”

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Now I wonder if it would be possible to engrave the complete works of William Shakespeare on an Iowa-class battleship's 16 inch shell. Big bullet but that's a lot of text.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You could write that in the head of a pin with room to spare.

In fact, the letters formed, an "S" and a "U" for Stanford University, are so small they could be used to print the 32-volume Encyclopedia Britannica 2,000 times and the contents would fit on the head of a pin.

[–] Jayjader@jlai.lu 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

To be fair, writing at that scale (couple of atoms' height if I remember correctly) would probably not stand up to the simple friction or wear & tear of the physical loading and firing mechanisms. Meaning if you engraved the complete works of Shakespeare on a casing, no-one could probably tell once you fired the shot.

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

Large bore naval rifles are not generally cased. Iowas for instance do not use cases, you write stuff directly on the shell like a bomb. They just use a shell and bags of powder.

[–] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bullet was forklifted to the press conference for media to view

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

I wonder how much of the bee movie script you could fit on a casing if you used shorthand and a good laser engraver

[–] cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone 45 points 1 day ago (1 children)

nancy mace praying for the shooter when she found out the shooter was a right wing extremist vs nancy mace calling to extermine all trans people when she thought the shooter was pro trans

Yep, that tweet was all I needed to see from anyone to prove what his ideologies were. Like a Bansheeit in the night she’ll screech which way the shit wind blows.

[–] snooggums@piefed.world 62 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Which one of those are the fascists claiming is trans ideology so they can use it for their stupid followers to support banning guns for people who are trans?

Oh, so that was the obvious bullshit that it was.

[–] ragebutt@lemmy.dbzer0.com 31 points 1 day ago (2 children)

The bullets were manufactured by turan ammo and because the government has fired everyone who is remotely competent and not ideologically compromised that was enough to be like “is this ideology?”

The only reason they caught the person is because they were literally handed to them. The investigation was floundering and they had nothing because patel specifically had just fired key staff in the Utah field office. This is, of course, assuming the whole thing isn’t some false flag bullshit bc shit is very convenient and will 100% be used to do nasty shit like deploy palatir nonsense country wide or send out national guard into dozens of cities

[–] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 6 points 22 hours ago

If it was a false flag they’d have a much more cartoonishly leftist suspect to toss in a kangaroo court or better yet never catch them so they’d have an Emmanuel Goldstein to pound on eternally. A ghost to blame any number of convenient murders on and justify violence against any dissident.

[–] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 18 hours ago

So wait he didn't even write the stuff himself, it was just meme ammo?

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 8 points 23 hours ago

Probably the owo

[–] mgnome@piefed.social 48 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Damn, missed opportunity to inscribe "Lol, lmao even" onto a bullet.

[–] pilferjinx@piefed.social 2 points 18 hours ago

Rofl would've been chef's kiss

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago

Or the more obscure: "Lmao bang"

[–] Hoimo@ani.social 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Can you get ammo laser engraved with anything you want? That seems like a lot of text for one bullet either way, but I don't know how big these bullets are or how precise the engraving can be.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

.30-06 Springfield cartridge is over 3 inches long, 2.5 of that is casing which is the part you would engrave. That's enough real estate to do it by hand if you don't have access to an engraving machine that won't tattle on you for obvious pre-meditative slogans.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 7 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

"What this for?"

"uh, art project."

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 16 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Uhh, idk about weirdo. He's got a Helldivers reference in one, I'd say he's kinda just an Internet poisoned gamer. Although, he was raised Mormon, but they prefer the term delightsome.

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 14 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Unfortunately, some Helldivers do not understand or appreciate the satire.

[–] bizzle@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Which is WILD to me because it's so on the nose, it's like it's not trying to be subtle at all

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 7 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Most critics in the 90s missed the satire of Starship Troopers and it's hard to get much more obvious than that.

[–] stringere@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 hours ago

And Helldivers is an obvious homage to Starship Troopers. So much so I'm kind of surprised they haven't used "would you like to know more? ".

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago

Mormons only smile on the outside.

[–] ganksy@lemmy.world 37 points 1 day ago (1 children)

"terminally online weirdo" - so like half the planet?

[–] compostgoblin@piefed.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It seems more like places like 4chan or wherever the fuck Groypers and those types hang out. Discord? Telegram? I dunno

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 12 hours ago

Groyper

they are the nick fuentes supporters types.

[–] FundMECFS@anarchist.nexus 5 points 1 day ago

Ehhh I could see a threadiverse user do the same tbh.

well the anti-natalist who shot up some people had a lemmy account I think.

[–] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't understand the reference in the arrow one

[–] salarua@sopuli.xyz 37 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

In the video game Helldivers 2, ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️ is the code to summon a 500kg bomb, one of the most destructive weapons in the game.

[–] Protoknuckles@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Ahhh, I've only played the first one.

~~terminally online weirdo~~ pretty cool dude

[–] CH3DD4R_G0BL1N@sh.itjust.works 2 points 18 hours ago

Nice to see Bob Evans still has his finger on the pulse of the situation

[–] Iceman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It will be curious to see wich account stops posting

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Evans, that's your listeners

[–] dethedrus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 15 hours ago

Don't you speak ill of the Honorable Reverend Doctor Robert Evans that way!
