politics

The Minnesota political assassinations were less than 3 months ago.

These fuckers are just freaked out that the people they encourage their followers to shoot are maybe starting to shoot back.

Funny how when a liberal politician is shot, they've been "killed", but when a conservative influencer is shot, it's "assassination".

And this is not a controversial person. This is not polarizing guy, a divisive person

He's like Socrates

Fox News hosts are simply unbearable.

"The enemy within", "Rats", "Demon-crats"

The Nazis dehumanized the Jews like this

The Second American Revolution will remain bloodless if the Left allows it to be,” the Heritage post said.

Get fucked fascists.

"my daughter loved him. I mean, she’s 13 years old. This is a man who touched an entire generation of Americans"

PHRASING!

Political violence is of course bad... but as soon as you call for it, especially indirectly, you deserve whatever comes to you. Stochastic terrorism is still terrorism, and there's not a lot more American than the fact we don't negotiate with terrorists.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

My brother in christ, your side had already deployed the military on American soil and kidnapped our neighbors, this ain't a start of a war, it's engaging with an active invasion.

Patiently waiting for the shooter to be a hard right conspiracy nut so I can play this clip back

Here it comes.

You thought a "culture war" would never turn into a "war war"?

Aren't you the fucking clowns that just declared war on Chicago and Portland like a week ago?

He’s like Socrates. He asks questions, and he does it with a smile. And there’s nothing controversial about saying, ‘socialism is worse than capitalism. Men and women are different. Let’s put America first,’ because that’s all he was about, putting America first.

Guy isn't even cold and they're moving on to more culture war bullshit.

Yes. A war YOU started.

The party that was cheering on civil war for the last year is now trying to play the victims

I love that these two bit conmen are all like "they're at war with us?!" When they've been trying to incite war with "us" for the past decade or so. It's hilarious how it's now all our fault. Also, Jesse Watters is a cunt and a deplorable human being. Let me know when someone of worth has something to say.

Ah yes, They

The party of “fuck your feelings” has feelings now? I’m clutching my pearls right now!

Good grief, these people are such gaslighting assholes.

I'm TERRIFIED! As a Republican i NEVER thought I would be treated like a FIrst Grade child or Democrat politician!

Someone declared war, but it wasn't the left.

I wonder what he had to say after two Democratic state senators in Minnesota were murdered. And after Paul Pelosi was nearly murdered, for that matter.

Hey Jesse, did u know liburals can study really gud? Mostly becaus3 we believe in education.

A common long-range civilian setup: .338 Lapua Magnum, 250–300 gr (≈16–19 g) very-low-drag bullet, muzzle velocity ~850–900 m/s. Target distance: 2000 yd ≈ 1829 m.

What happens to the bullet

1) Drag (air resistance) does most of the work.

Drag scales roughly with the square of speed. The bullet leaves supersonic, slows hard at first, then even more as it nears the transonic region (~Mach 1.2→0.8). A .338 LM VLD bullet often goes subsonic before 2000 yd, which adds small, messy instabilities (buffet, increased yaw). Result: time of flight stretches to on the order of 3–4 s.

2) Gravity never clocks out.

While the bullet is covering the 1.8 km, gravity pulls it down continuously. With realistic drag, you’re looking at dozens of meters of drop by 2000 yd—think ~40–55 m (rough scale), not centimeters. That’s why long-range optics dial many tens of mrad/MOA.

3) Wind is a tyrant.

Sideways air matters because the bullet lives in the airstream, not on a chalkboard. For a steady 10 mph (≈4.5 m/s) full-value crosswind, lateral drift at 2000 yd is meters, not inches—roughly 5–15 m depending on exact bullet, density altitude, and how much of the flight is subsonic. A 1 mph error can easily shove you >0.5 m off at this range.

4) Spin drift (gyroscopic drift).

Right-hand twist barrels impart a subtle rightward drift as the bullet’s spinning axis processes in a gravity field. At 2000 yd this is commonly ~1–2 m to the right (order-of-magnitude).

5) Coriolis (Earth is rotating under you).

Over a ~3–4 s flight, the Coriolis deflection is modest but real—typically tens of centimeters up to ~0.5–1 m, depending on latitude and the firing azimuth (most noticeable shooting north/south; almost none due east/west at the equator).

6) Energy on target.

Muzzle energy for .338 LM is ~6–7 kJ. After 2000 yd the bullet’s speed may be ~250–350 m/s, giving ~500–1000 J remaining—still serious, but a small fraction of launch energy.

A compact worked picture (illustrative, not a firing table)

• Cartridge/bullet: .338 LM, 250 gr (~16.2 g) VLD
• Muzzle velocity: ~900 m/s
• Time of flight to 2000 yd: ~3–4 s
• Gravitational drop: on the order of 40–55 m by impact (drag-inclusive)
• 10 mph crosswind drift: roughly 5–15 m
• Spin drift (RH twist): ~1–2 m right
• Coriolis: ~0.2–0.8 m scale, sign depends on azimuth/latitude
• Impact speed/energy: ~250–350 m/s, ~0.5–1 kJ

Why 2000 yards is “edge-of-envelope” for typical civilian rigs

• Transonic crossing: Many .338 LM loads go subsonic between ~1500–1800 yd. Crossing transonic erodes ballistic coefficient and can perturb stability.
• Error growth: Tiny input errors—muzzle velocity spread, wind gradient with height, density altitude shifts—balloon into meters of miss distance.
• Angular resolution: At 1829 m, 1 milliradian ≈ 1.83 m (1 MOA ≈ 0.53 m). Your scope’s clicks, your hold estimation, and your bullet dispersion have to play nice at that granularity.

The physics takeaway

A 2000-yard shot is a four-second argument between inertia and atmosphere, refereed by gravity and heckled by Earth’s rotation. The bullet’s story is written by drag (v²), gravity (g), and a stack of second-order effects (wind fields, spin drift, Coriolis, aerodynamic jump), all amplified by long time-of-flight. It’s not magic; it’s compounded small physics.

Just saying, with this type of unhinged rhetoric, liberals and minorities should exercise their 2A rights.

It's got the potential to get bad because guys don't need facts before they shoot especially with a influential guy here, and he is, actively encouraging his followers to avenge Kirk and blaming the left with no proof.
