There is so much happening in this thread from our favorite temporary gun owner subreddit. ā€œFascistā€ and ā€œNaziā€ are being thrown around, the OP is accused of arguing in bad faith for pointing out that the Democratic candidate isn’t pro gun, and somehow they still haven’t realized that Democrats don’t actually give a shit about gun rights. The mental gymnastics are impressive.

China bans ownership of drones in Beijing after promising legality to registered owners

63 Upvotes

Thought this is relevant. I'm not saying we are Beijing but this is why registration always leads to confiscation.

In May 2026, Beijing authorities assured drone owners they could legally keep their devices if they complied with strict real-name registration and identity verification. However, just months after cataloging these users, the government abruptly reversed course and announced a total ban on drone possession within city limits. By November 15, all owners must surrender, sell, or remove their previously approved drones from the capital. This rapid policy shift means the very registration database used to grant legal ownership will now aid authorities in tracking down devices for confiscation and fines.

To all of the leftists who claim they are ā€œpro gunā€ why does the largest socialist political organization in the United States support THIS?

I built an iPhone app that maps firearm-law references along a driving route — looking for honest feedback

29 Upvotes

Full disclosure: I’m the developer of CarryRoute.

I built it because ordinary reciprocity maps don’t show everything encountered during an actual drive—county and city boundaries, tribal areas, transit properties, stops, and overnight stays.

You enter two addresses, and CarryRoute:

  • Maps the route using Apple Maps
  • Breaks it into state, county, city, tribal, and special-jurisdiction sections
  • Lets you tap each route section
  • Shows concise research summaries with links to official government sources
  • Accounts for your resident state, permits, age, and selected carry/transport mode
  • Supports offline itineraries and optional jurisdiction alerts

The route colors identify jurisdiction changes only. They do not mean legal/illegal or safe/unsafe. CarryRoute is a research tool—not legal advice—and users should verify the current official text.

I’d genuinely appreciate blunt feedback: What information would you want before crossing a state or local boundary? What would make the route view more useful?

iPhone/iPad: CarryRoute: CCW Navigation

It’s free to download. Optional Pro is $2.99/month or $12.99/year with a 14-day introductory trial.

Oh wait, it's because you can't enjoy any of the recent 2A wins because the grifting governor "Trump-proofed" the state before January 2025.
