      Americans have free speech, not free ammo.

        Seriously. 9mm is like 1$/bullet.

          A buddy of mine that shoots competitions started reloading his own ammo because he was spending double on ammo from a few years ago.

          2020 ammo prices were absolutely insane, though.

            Killing Nazis to bring down bullet prices for your hobby. Legal?

        Do they really have free speech though? I was gobsmacked seeing how a former US Army veteran spent a month in jail and lost his job for posting a meme of Charlie Kirk with one of his quotes. You wouldn’t get locked up for posting something like that in Canada.

      As it turns out Americans don’t like being sent to prison on felony charges
