    Give some kids some candy, they eat candy for a day.

    Give them a handgun and they eat candy wherever they fucking want.

    Most houses only give out little .22’s for Halloween, but go to the ritzy neighborhoods and you’ll get full sized DEagles and P-90s.

      My neighborhood would be seized up Hi-Points

        I have a .45 Hi-Point carbine. Flawless operation, had never malfunctioned, weighs 10-pounds, impossible to clean. Along with other… odd design choices.

        Hi-Points are what you get by giving a group a very smart engineers a list of things the product needs to do. A group of engineers that has never seen an actual gun.

          I have a Hi-Point .45 pistol and that pretty accurately describes it (the weight is fine but the balance is weird and makes it feel terrible).

          I use it as a close range backup when I’m hog hunting. I’ve only had to use it once and it worked just fine. It literally saved me from being at least maimed and possibly dead but I still hate it. And I’ll keep using it until it stops working, which may be the apocalypse.

            Damn. I really want one, but I already have a Colt .45 and the weight is the same. Is it this one?

            Speaking of hogs, I’m outside all the time in NW Florida and have never seen one or evidence of them. OK, two came to my house, apparently lost, but I’ve never seen them in the wild. Horror of mine as a sounder would level my camp in the boonies. Where they at?!

              It’s that in black. That Colt is going to feel much better, though.

              Northeast Texas. I’ve got a buddy up there with some land and we have to go clear them out a couple of times a year. They tear up everything. He lost a dog to them a few years ago and now we go out there like clockwork instead of waiting for them to get closer to the house.

          I have a Sig Sauer p320, had to send it in to get the “drop issue” fixed. Doesn’t matter how much you spend, engineering failures are everywhere. Not so much a knock on Hi Point as the neighborhood is live in. The one I found discarded in my yard two years ago had been rusted to the point of being inoperable.

      Of all the shitting Trump does to immigrants, he signed the bill into law that required giving each naturalized citizen a Glock and an AR-15 upon taking the oath.

    Wait, does Halloween even exist outside the US and its hat?

    I thought it was just an us and our hat holiday.

      Id imagine it exists everywhere the Catholic Church went. Most places likely didn’t commercialize it to people like we did though.

      Think it’s called All Saints day in some places

      In most of Europe, tomorrow evening most people will go to the graves of their former relatives and light candles, it is quite beutiful.

      I am considering bringing my trusty kerosene fuled storm lantern for both ambience and finding my way in the dark chruch yards.

        Do they give you your free candy when you get to the graves or is that later? When do you get the sweeties?
