CSGV is descending into a strange emotion filled world, and it is fascinating to watch.... [View all]

"The Mosin-Nagant rifle he carries is basically a fetish rifle for hardcore insurrectionists"




They could have used the term "powerful"here and been correct, NO, they label a potentially 120 year old, 5 shot bolt action rifle a "fetish" item. With all the fear mongering they do over semi-automatic rifles that have ergonomic features, and normal capacity magazines. They flip their lid of a old bolt action gun, that can only hold 5 rounds, that takes a lot of skill and practice to reload those five rounds with ANY speed whatsoever, and is very "uncomfortable" for most folks to shoot.

Out of all the rifles they find "offensive" and demand them to be banned immediately, this is about as pedestrian a firearm as they come.

I sense much desperation with them, they are getting *much* more irrational here as of late for some reason. Bloomberg's check must be late or something.
