This is madness!
« on: Mon, 07 April 2014, 05:51:22 »
Tried to buy a belt from ebay...



"This item is regulated by Part 121 of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR).
By bidding on or purchasing this item, you confirm that you're buying this item for your own use,
that you're a U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the U.S., and that you won't export this item outside of the U.S.."

Yes, it's a military style molle belt, but it's  still JUST A ****ING BELT! >_<

Can't have people from countries with trade sanctions wearing the same belt.

Imagine the embarrassment if you both turned up to the same war wearing the same belt!

In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Is that ammo straps around the sides?

And a hollow pouch around the inside for incindiary material?

like how? if by 'here' you mean Virginia, I imagine it's a place crawling with CIA, Military Contractors aka mercenaries and hit men, Spy training schools, gun advocates and military nuts. My imagination has also added images of the local walmart selling more ammo than butter, and area ebay sellers grumbling about how the wicked Mayor Bloomberg has been bad for honest, good old American mom and pop gun-selling businesses.   :p
