Nitrates are a key ingredient to explosives like ANFO. Ammonium nitrate adds the oxidizer. I saw it on Bugs Bunny one time.

Edit: That rust color may have been rust dust i.e. iron oxide or just weird dirt. idunno

TX wins again. 70,000 long guns is enough to arm a good sized army, not bad.

"Math is actually not universal. Treating it as such upholds white supremacy."

So the Babylonians, Ancient Egyptians, Assyrians, Ancient Chinese, Maya, Phoenicians and Medieval Arabs were all white supremacists...huh, who knew? Well aside from these people I guess.

This is why history has to be erased, it doesn't fit the narrative.

PA was pistols, by far, so I'm guessing that probably a lot of people in the cities where some of the rioting/protesting happened started thinking "Yeah I never had one, but I think I need one." if they were a first time gun owner. It'd be really interesting to see the how many brand new, first time PA LTCFs were issued over the same timespan.

The potential John Brown (or NFAC new member/reactive target) types buying their first gun would probably be looking at rifles, specifically ARs, AKs, etc. or shotguns I'd think.

And there were only 188 pistols sold in Nebraska? Wow.

ETA: And of course, and as always - Fuck Midget Bloomberg.

Yep.

I've seen "problematic" used by those sorts in relation to history, along with many other things; but in regard to history it's used to mean "Shit didn't happen he way we would have wanted it to. So it needs to be changed to be used as evidence of why we're right," so they set about to spindle, fold and mutilate it until it does. It makes me sick.

Yep.

I also think that's part (just part mind you) of the reason they want to go to a cashless society, they're too fucking dumb to figure out change or tips because math is hard and may take as much time to do as my next stunning and brave tweet will, so fuck that racist math.

The first time I saw one of my friends' kids trying to do that new math, which is like adding in 7 steps to come up with an answer for 6x7 I just shook my head. A lot. Especially since they had to "show their work." I would get in so much shit if I was in school now because all my "show my work" boxes would read - I did it in my head.  And I'm not even particularly good at math just went to school when they still taught it normally.

I can't believe they're doing another Battlestar Galactica remake/reboot already.

And here's another thing that chaps my ass, Hollywood loves to recycle stuff so what's the damn holdup on our Firefly continuation?

ETA: Although with as batshit crazy as Whedon has become, maybe just let Tim Minear (or John Favreau) do it...

“Tonnes of confiscated nitrate” was reported present in the area of the initial explosion.


Looks like it. I hope they've learned just how dangerous it is - and not to store it in such a cavalier manner in the future.
