Rifle on webcam
« on: August 02, 2023, 03:59:21 PM »
So, my google fu is a bit weak today.  Wife and I were talking last night about the folly of gun control.  And she mentioned something from maybe 10-15 years ago.  Someone had a rifle (I believe it was an AR pattern rifle) on a webcam.  Standing in the corner.   With a timer running on the webpage.  Essentially it was a very blunt "guns aren't autonomous" point.

Anyone remember this?   Remember where it was on the web, or if it is still running?

I remember it too.  I cannot find it with my limited google-fu though.

I imagine that the owner of it probably gave up after years of careful vigilance.  Of course, that's just when AR-15's like to strike.

The rifle was last seen yelling "This is MAGA country!" while being arrested for leading a group of semi full auto MAGA ghost hat wearing white supremacists into the capital building on Jan 6. When asks about it's whereabouts the ATF director answered he is not a biologist.

I remember a handgun, done like that.
