Fair point, but even as a collector, the number of weapons that went through his hands is quite concerning, to say the least.
(FWIW, I’m no expert of any kind, but am the son of a gunsmith/Maine State Hunting Guide/competitive marksman/redneck motherfucker who taught shooting and hunter safety, and who loathed the NRA, so my opinion is admittedly a bit skewed.)
Unless you are Native American (assuming you’re in the US), you (and I) come from a line of either immigrants or slaves, so you might wanna rethink that narrow attitude, bud.
Also, which out of roughly 150 cartels, precisely, is ‘the’ cartel you refer to?
the answer seems to not be available at the mo’, and
even so, so what?
Would you be happier if they were a white boy MAGAt (who are no strangers to amassing weapons for an armed conflict)?
I’m not happy about any asshole who wants to move shit-tons of munitions to fuck with civilians, whether they’re from here or not, and regardless of who they vote for.
I know at least one lefty acquaintance who is of the militia mindset, and if I knew that person were moving guns, I’d narc on him as fast as any * pinche cholo* or Stormfront shit-eater.
I shat my credit into single digit range threeish decades ago (yeah, I’m a boomer puke). I couldn’t even get a bank account until about eight years ago. I finally was able to get an acct, got a secured card, and built my credit up to 729. ‘Upgraded’ my secured card to unsecured, but left the limit at $300 to keep me in check.
Then I made the mistake for applying for a modest credit line with my bank. Not only did I get denied, but the hard credit hit put me under 700. Then my credit took another major hit *because I used that card for more than 31% of its limit.*Never once made a late payment, neither.
As I hoped that a line of credit could afford me access to an oral surgeon (which I really need to even consider dentures, as I have mucho malo in my mouth), and as I have no interest in writing a grant to cover it, I’m fucked, as oral surgeons don’t seem to take Medicaid in my shit state.
If I survive another yearish, Medicare might be helpful, but the problems in my pie-hole might not wait that long.
I do not want a handout. I want the chance to pay it off and not leave it to Medicare…and not die of the infections spreading to either my brain (such as it is) or my heart.
As much as I can see the appeal of gaming the system, I don’t look good in orange.
Also, I have gigs to attend to (filthy bass player here), as well as taking care of my sweetheart, who has wicked mobility issues. I don’t think I can do that from a cell.
The single digit score was what I was told by a friend in banking who looked it up for me, years ago, but I’m not arguing with you, as I didn’t see it with my own eyes. She could have been lying.
Boomer = old person. Puke = asshole, fucker, or other insult.
Agreed. Weird system, and dangerous for many. That’s why I only allow myself a very limited card, which is what I used to build my shitty credit back up.
