This is a satirical joke that would've been in GTA 15 years ago.

Satire isn't dead, it just became reality.

some states have a waiting period for ammo so I'm imagining someone buying and then coming back 10 days later for the machine to finally dispense

"In Japan people are very shy so instead of ordering ammo face to face they have a machine that you can use to buy from it"

Prices probably suck.... you should definitely check ammoseek dot com before making a purchase from this machine

Literally a mechanic from Fallout 76

Forget the Fallout timeline, we're getting the Bioshock timeline.

Surprisingly this ammo vending machine is less racist

"The market of mass shootings is pushing the demand to new highs. People of all types are trying out new and improved forms of terror, capitalism is just providing the services needed and the infrastructure demanded to sustain such economy. We need to understand that capitalism is just a tool to improve our lives throughout it's paths. Mass shootings, domestic terror and militias are just a new frontier. And we a society build around the conquest of such frontiers and limits. We can go beyond it. Again, actually."

God Bless America!!!!

Maybe they can also put a gun vending machine nearby, make the process easier..?

Circus of "Value" lmao

And then they wonder why mass shootings are such a common occurrence

I'm not from the US and remember watching Bowling for Columbine when I was younger, and the free shotgun for opening a bank account and ammo being sold at wallmart blew my mind(pun not inteneded)
