Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Can we find the person who, for no apparent reason, interpreted manufacturers markings as apparent 'trans ideology' and ask him wtf that was supposed to accomplish? I mean if you don't know what some markings mean, aside from blatant bias is there any possible way to get to 'trans ideology' from manufacturers markings? Are they using male/female icons? Emojis? Printing them in rainbow colors?
EDIT: the misinterpretation may actually be a series of arrows related to a Helldivers 2 move. Up, right, down, down, down. There is an anti fascist icon of three downward arrows. I'm guessing the idiots thought the other two arrows looked like those astrological gender icons and decided that must mean trans somehow.
TRN. It's the manufacturers code for a Turkish company called Turan. That's what I heard at any rate.
Identifying that as trans is just rank incompetence. Anyone that stupid would be fired in a sane world. Under our fascist regime, new FBI director incoming.
It sounds like someone had a theory and Patel went off before any research could be done. Not to defend the fbi but it sounds like they did what they are supposed to it's Patel who keeps fucking up
I'm not a gun person but my understanding is that no one who's looked at bullets could mistake a manufacturer's imprint. Where it is and what it looks like preclude it being anything else. It would be like confusing a barcode for a brandname.
Talking about the engravings.
Ah, yep, fair enough. That is definitely more understandable as a preliminary theory that Patel should not have been mouthing off about yet.
Kash fired every above that intelligence level. Sycophants and dipshits only from now on.
Made the joke yesterday that it probably said Remington. Its fucking hilarious that my joke was so close to the truth lol.
When did "mind your own fucking business" become an ideology?
