Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Sand_Pirate: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/37141/th-984456561_jpeg-3239782.JPG For all you young'uns, there was a kerfluffle her some years ago involving a very good gunsmith out of Arizona, and his fondness for a certain word used to describe illegal aliens. The word was so accurately descriptive of the sound a Maglite makes when contacting a human head with bad intent, it was banned. It's true. All of it. I have the t-shirt and scars to prove it!!!  BT, DT, still have the T Shirt, and pics of the party with Garry Owen giving Ed Sr. the Maglight of peace. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By FredMan: Pepperidge Farms remembers Tonka Trucks. Pepperidge Farms also remembers that they were made out of heavy sheet metal, that would cut you like a pissed off Puerto Rican whore when you stiff her on the payment. (Yes, I know that rusty metal doesn't cause tetanus. But I didn't back then. Thanks, Mom!) |

Don’t know where you got your Tonka trucks from, but mine were some tough shit, and they didn’t have any sharp edges that I remember. We used to play a destructive game with our toy vehicles where we sat ~6’ from each other across a wooden floor, and whipped those cars and trucks across the floor at each other in a collision. Those Tonkas destroyed everything else, eventually. Aside from losing paint, they kept right on rolling. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By colklink: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/17974/1000010875_jpg-3240103.JPG I remember that. It struck me as odd that this new caliber was the alleged second coming of Jesus and I couldn't find ammo or guns in that caliber anywhere. I think there was one outfit selling AR uppers in that caliber. To avoid accusations of freeloading. Here's some completely unrelated funny.  Attached File |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By DK-Prof: Pretty much. There was no problem with the initial use of the word "tonk" to describe the sound a maglite makes when hitting someone (who presumably deserved it) in the head. As noted by Sand_Pirate, it only became a problem with someone started using it as a blanket term to describe illegal aliens, and then eventually just Hispanics in general. So once people started posting stuff like, "When I pulled into the gas station, there was a truck with five Tonks parked at one of the pumps" and stuff like that. At that point it just became a "code" word to describe a racial group, like "wetback" for Hispanics, or "Amish" for black people, and similar stuff - and that's when Staff told everyone to stop. IIRC, the drama was as a result of some folks from the AZ hometown forum deciding to be edgelords/cool and continuing to use it AFTER Site Staff asked everyone to stop. So the original origin of the word was never a problem ... it was what GD decided to do with it. I got here after this incident occurred. Long after, I think. Had no idea the original context, but absolutely DID know there was some kind of 'controversy' around it because mods were still getting their panties on a bunch and threatening bans for daring to type the word in nowhere fucking close to this context. |
