Current Events 2023 Edition

Absolutely despicable.
:rage:

Oh, you must mean this: << gratuitous linkage >>

It’s no surprise that Discover is going to be the first CC company to employ the gun and ammo purchase codes. In the past year Discover / Authorize.net have blocked all of my related purchases. My Discover card hasn’t worked for me since April 2021 so voted it off of the island.

I like to have a separate card that I use for specific types of purchases. That makes it easier to track annual spending on related things. Discover was my go-to card for one specific class of purchases. Now I don’t use it anymore.

Discover was the first to block transactions because of the ā€œghost gunā€ and ā€œghost gun partsā€ panics almost a year ago. I was already having trouble with Discover blocking my transactions even before the CC companies started talking about the MCC codes. I had no option but to stop using the Discover card and to use another card instead. I called the Discover C/S number and told them exactly why I was canceling my card – I told them that it’s not their prerogative to control how I spend my money, and if their card gets in the way of me making purchases then I have no use for it.

I like Langley’s idea – even though he’s almost year late waking up on what needs to be done.

BREAKING VICTORY! VISA and Mastercard BACK OFF gun and ammo tracking codes! This is MASSIVE! - YouTube this one

I call foul on cncgobrrt – you can’t go changing your post after someone replies to it, attacking them with the intent to make the other person’s comments seem improper when deliberately taken out of context.

:laughing: :rofl: :joy:

And of course it gets worse…

As a Country are we really that asleep at the wheel. To allow China to creep up on us in broad daylight. Why is the US not making these inroad investments to cover our six? I don’t know…smdh

What is he smoking :smoking:?

I don’t know dude. Hes just a memeber like you or me. I’ll stay out of this, but I will say you seem to be trolling, not him.

Also just an FYI to help yourself out. I have noticed you delete over 50% of your posts in all threads on all subjects. I don’t care, but I o ly mention it because like I said ā€œan fyi to help yourself outā€. The fyi is everything you post, edut and delete can still be seen. It doesn’t dissappear and you are not the o ly one that can see the changes.

Exhibit A:


Yeah i admit, sorry it gotta out of hand

Best to step away from the keyboard when that happens…

I laughed to hard at those :rofl:

If Guitar Guy was a cowboy :cowboy_hat_face:

Meow, meow…

Altering the public view is their platform. They will wither in the light of truth.

that’s who I work for, sort of. We’ve been sold, resold, merged, split, spun off etc. over the past 17 years. Sadly, EDS is no more.

IMO-I say good. In a riot or looting situations I’m more for order the Law Enforcement can leave their non lethals and handcuffs at home. Gotta work on tight groupings and moving targets.

First sign of a snowstorm coming and the grocery stores are ransacked, especially the night before when the last minuters go out in a frenzy.
However that doesnt stop us from going out and driving all over at dangerous speeds lol dont slow down around here for some reason

I’ve never heard of them myself . But one day some members were ā€œon oneā€ so to speak and GuitarGuy made the reference to herding cats since he was busy editing posts and slapping hands lol. So I looked for a meme right now and that video popped up. Funny as hell :rofl:
