He's probably sipping a Busch or another brand that he doesn't realize is owned by the same company, because "gO wOkE gO bRoKe"
Also, while shooting bud light in his backyard with a rifle, opposing “cancel culture”
Republicans support Russia though, for completely unclear reasons that make no sense. Well, republican pundits and also roger waters…
So do nazi parties across Europe. Some sort of enemy of my enemy thinking plus love for the kind of leader Putin is.
Yeah, I think part of it is their reflexive contrarianism, where "Demorcat Party LIKE Ukraine, so we will oppose it! They hate Russia, so we love it!" And yeah, basically Putin has the same politics as they do: fascism. It's astounding to listen to things he says (as in, the particular style of manipulative lying) and realize it sounds exactly like the BS that Republicans say.
We should have a gun drive to send out excess weapons and ammo over to Ukraine. Lord knows we have enough guns in this country to spare a few...
That would be a perfect way for the Ukrainians to end up with out of spec guns with random wish dot con components that have had improper gunsmithing done to them.
While this was a nice gesture, would 101 random weapons bought off equally random Florida Men all at least share the same ammo? A gun’s just an awkward club without proper ammo.
The ones in the picture are likely a mix of 5.56 and 7.62 firearms. Both Ukraine would have in abundance
If the photo's anything to go by, it's probably mainly pistols. I don't think they're all 9mm
The rifles are mostly 5.56 or 7.62. The handguns are mostly 9mm.
All the people afraid the socialist gubberment is going to come for their individuality seems to own AR-15s, so it’s not quite random.
AR-15’s are like the Honda Civic of guns, cheap and endlessly modifiable. That’s why.

Wait, Florida confiscates guns?
The handing out of guns makes sense, but taking away? Unheard of!
These guns apparently came from a buyback program. https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/city-of-miami-to-send-guns-to-ukraine-city/2809291/

They take away from arrestees. Not just guns, but a butt load of personal property actually. It’s an income stream for most PDs.
Crazy that a bunch of privately owned firearms are useful in a warzone.
Crazy that civilians hold military grade weaponry in better condition than actual military equipment.
Is this actually helpful here's a bunch of random guns of varying quality and caliber do they work don't know can you get the ammunition don't I get the pr there your problem now
My dad told me from his mandatory service, that the sowjet made pistols were so bad, that you'd better throw them, than shoot at ranges past 15m. So can't bebworse than that.
And a big ol' bag of bullets.
Because who doesn't want there ammunition stored in a bin liner?
The funny thing here is that Russian mobsters probably sold a few of those guns.
Oh, what's that? You think there are no Russian mobsters where you live? That's a hard maybe.
Also, there is no crime in Russia... since Russian mobsters work hand in hand with local and national police in Russia.
Just another reminder of how corrupt that federation is.
But I live in a rural English town where the most exciting thing that happens is the elderly folk fighting over who has control over the flowers near the rectory. Are you saying they are russian agents? For real?
Edit: and now you've edited your post, making mine seem like nonsense.

From what I can see, all in the picture are semi auto guns that can be bought at any Academy or almost any Bass Pro Shops in the US.
Illegal guns get flipped if I'm not mistaken. Like unregistered automatic rifles that gets resold and smuggled across county and state lines. It's probable that some russian mobsters got a piece of the action is what I'm saying. Mobsters don't need to stick to their own nation states and will move around to where they can make money.
Like unregistered automatic rifles
But these are all basic semi auto AR-15s, None of them have the third hole
This is just a collection of some of the most popular civilian rifles in the US all of which are completely legal in Florida.
There's way easier ways to obtain those than interacting with the mob
I'd like to think someone is running around in Ukraine with some drug lord's gold plated AK47
I hope these guns passed QA testing... as somebody from a country with a lot of poorly-made guns this news scared me
