Even if the rural units are 50% more accurate, there's alot more than just shooting things.

And if you have 3-2 numbers, that advantage vanishes immediately.

It's not like every shot have to be pin point accurate, saturation of bullets will make the difference

^

And if you can trade and come out ahead, you still win.

It only takes 3 days for you to die from dehydration.

It will probably take longer before people in cities banned together.

Phyrric Victory is still victory.

Before they stop fighting each other for resources.

By then, the numbers would be even.

Lol. Americans can't really get water on their own anyway.

Montezuma's revenge is a real thing.

Majority of the water is supplied from rural areas.

Water & food.

You don't understand the overwhelming advantage of they have in military might, resources, and training.

We also have the advantage of home turf.

Understanding the land around us.

You don't understand the overwhelming advantage of angry mob armed with machetes and spears.

Saudi tv censored Angela merkel's hair

This is real

XD

Holy shit.

Lol, typical saudis

Phew, that's good. Don't want any wrong ideas floating aroud.

I am just saying Rural is better prepared, better equipped, and better trained when it comes fighting.

It would be foolish for the City to attack the rural area that has the knowledge of farming too.

Tv censorship is always stupid as heck tbh.

If they kill off all farmers, who would farm? Who would raise life stalk?

geez

@Abel Can we Censor all of Merkel?

Like I said.... they are fucked either way.

didn't they censor someone hair at the olypnics lmao

And it is funny Merkel got her hair censored.

But censoring hairs is extremely weird

I get it if they censor nudity

But eh.... personally not a fan of censorship in general

@Timcast Who would win if a civil war broke out between Urban Areas and Rural Areas?

btw guys

that shot of the censored hair is apparently a parody from some Saudi site

so tis fake

rural hands down

Oh lol

tons of guns

most supplies in general

cities get choked out in 3 days

Hm. If I ever found myself in Californian and I wanted a gun, I'll get an integral suppressed airsoft rifle.

resort to canibalism almost immediately

im not joking

Yep Tim

Because it's "not a gun".

NYC will be a hellscape of illegal hand guns

random shootings

and people drinking blood

I work retail, I can tell you that stores will be empty in a day in any real disaster

dude my local walmart runs out of shit every 3 days

people dont get it

the food trucks come in and they dont see them

people dont understand how hard it is to get food into NYC

NYC will have to undergo a dramatic change becuase the streets are too congested

People don't generally come out to see walmart being stocked at 3 am tho

@Timcast I work for Wally World, I know exactly how the food flow works.

Walmart is prepared for..certain disasters

But yeah, NYC has too many people to sustain itself

There you go. Timcast agrees with me.

Rural areas would win.

but like..a nationwide disaster like Civil War or say, the entire east coast grid going down? yeah don't think Walmart will save you.

The city would destroy themselves.

cities will collpase in three days

especially Chicago

chicago is super fragmented by race

tons of ilelgal guns

They would thin out in numbers before they even think about attacking rural areas.

gangs take over huge areas right away

ruralwill cut off supplies via roads

3 days? It isn't collapsing now?

offer food to people in cities

San Francisco would be fucked

*Nods.*

and win in a day

would be? they are already pooping in the streets there.

Cities need a smack in the face to be honest.

lol

Maybe 3 day embargo.

Just in general Cali would be fucked

detroit is collapsing now

What happened to Chicago? Why does it have such high rates of violence?

they cant afford the water system because too many people left the city

Stop treating Rural areas like shit.

I know Detroit was crippled due to the car industries leaving

Basically.

How likely would a Far Cry 5 scenario be?

if there are 1M people in a city and it costs 1M$ oer month for the water syustem to operate, everyone pays 1$

but if 900k move out everyone pays 10$

Detroit is in this now

but the cost is way higher

its like 100-200 per house now

and going up

Basically cities are ill equipped for a civil war with the Midwest.

That they are attacking.

@Abel 60 years of democrat control is what happened 😛

@Braydon a crazy cult leader getting their hands on a nuke? Pretty sure the army wouldn't let him.

Damn. Will it end up becoming a ghost city soon?

I doubt a lot of people will want to stay

detroit might recover

Second amendment boi. @Der Kommissar

once it becomes worthless

tech firms move in for cheap real estate

Yeah... when things become worthless, there is actually value there.

Apparently you could get a mini nuke with that

Some cities would recover, but not many

It means it has no place to go but up.

I want to visit Detroit sometime

See how bad it is

If I was an stock market player, I would be buying things when they hit rock bottom.

Because it means either way, I gain.

I'm picturing rows and rows of empty apartment buildings

It’s free real estate

I honestly think the calls by far left to go to civil war with us aka rural areas who voted for Trump is retarded.

They don't understand their position well.

It would be a short civil war.

we should make a tim pool npc meme

Would a suppressed air sniper rifle be servicable in active combat?

Are you talking about a airgun?

no

No it wouldn't.

22 maybe... but a air gun.

No .

@Braydon no. It's only useful for taking a potshot in an ambush (even then, it's unlikely to kill someone)

It would sting yes.

But in a civil war, you would be dead.

if i had a military i'd issue all the main forces vss's and give them solid snake training, fuel them off kojima ramen

You'd generally have to be real close to kill someone with an air rifle

If most of the people in the midwest are like me.

greatest fighting force known to man

I was trained since I was 10 years old on how to handle a gun.

Rifles, handguns, shotguns... you name it.

I have a healthy respect for them.

Guess there is a huge experience difference between us then.

There is the fact I was also trained how to raise cattle and farm.

That comes in handy.

I’ve never shot a gun but would love to shoot one

My family doesn’t have the money for one

There is also the overwhelming advantage of knowing the battlefield.

Shooting's fun.

I've shot a bunch. Including a 25mm chaingun.

Gun license is extremely and prohibitively expensive in Indonesia tbh

The most important thing is accuracy.

I just fired my first rifle at 18. Went to a range and rented an M16 style rifle.

Yeah... accuracy comes with training.

I been using guns since I was 10.

>.>

I started a couple years ago.

The only way I was able to shoot a gun was by joining the army.

Friend of mine has a Glock.

The cities are fucked either way.

Cause I had plans on going to the military, I needed a head start on knowing how to handle an M16 style rifle.

Either by themselves or by rural area.

I can put holes in paper pretty consistently.

In all honesty, the rural areas probably won't even have to fire a single shot.

Eh.... not really, I've seen people who never shot a gun in their life scoring almost perfect score on shooting classes @Dusty Morgan

The cities will tear themselves apart.

That is rare Der.

I am one of those people.

But my accuracy is 23 years of training, on top of my natural ability.

One I first started shooting, I kept my bullet cluster close.

I've used the M16, MAG, Browning machine gun, 25mm bushmaster, uzi, and beretta m9.

Now I can do it with moving targets.

I had to shoot with my left since my right eye is fucked.

M16 is fun to shoot. 😃

M16 is easy to shoot with.

Exactly.

What happened to your right eye @Braydon

It is great for relaxing at the shooting range.

Apparently I always had an issue with my eyes because my vision wasn't 20/20.

I accidently shot the M16 on auto before. Twice.

Better than the issued garand they gave me during basics.

There is something about the sound of the M16 is soothing.

I had a deformed right eye so I can't see out of both of them at the same time.

Although, I personally prefer FNCs for operations.

I think it mostly has to do with it being familiar sound.

Familiar sounds are soothing.

I don't know what I enjoyed the most.

I can see almost perfectly out of my left though. So I have to get used to being a lefty when I shoot guns.

https://youtu.be/NM8xvE5B4yk

Wear a glass, @Braydon

I just have really shit vision in general

I love hickok.

Fucking good stuff.

I’m nearsighted

My eye sight has messed up, but I can still shoot nicely.

Due to my training.

Seems like a decent guy.

Gun smoke.

T_T

I wear glasses, but they're to protect my eyes from further damage.

I straight up can’t even see 3 feet clearly without shit getting blurry

Here are two hits of mine with the bushmaster: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8EStax1-To https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTPSnSaaXHY

I fucked my hearing after artillery training tho.

I would love to shoot a bushmaster.

By the time I was 24, they wouldn't let me join the military.

Ironically my eyesight.

And my hearing.

Kept me.

Shooting guns messed up my eyes...

When my father was trying to prepare me for the miltiary.

So it a gatling gun?

It's a chaingun.

Irony is the great equalizer.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typhoon_Weapon_Station

I want to fire gatling guns.

I don't want to fire dshk.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJ0WEGLqBHw

this video is proof that the right too can be fucking retarded

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s938ChANQH0

and this is why I will never align with a "tribe"

its like people get off on being retards

Idiocy knows no bounds

Aye. Both sides are retarded

Everyone are NPCs.

im surprised it took this long

adrenaline

yuo

Look at all the same comments

"tim has never been in a fight in his life"

Yeah... I realize both sides can be retarded.

literal NPCs

But overwhelming the left is nuts.

While both sides are idiots, didn't Antifa start the shit in the first place?

Where did the NPC thing start?

I actually fear the left gaining power at the moment.

While the right... the extreme right is a minority.

The left has control of flow of information sadly.

Both extremes are a minority albeit the far right is a smaller minority

There was a Youtuber who did short films. Back in 2015, he released a few horror shorts about a far left dystopian future where political correctness was everywhere.

<:NPC:500042527231967262>

Not really, I've seen more retarded right in where I'm from

I looked at the comments Tim... geez, the point is flying over their head.

It depends on where you are I suppose

The extreme right gets denounced by everyone.
The extreme left gets propped up by media and activist-academics

Your Right isn't like our right Der.

Things are much different here in United States.

In the US, right wing is classical liberalism

left wing is social liberalism

but clearly the extreme left is in the same boat as the extreme right when it comes to the general public, which is a very good thing to see.

Very different from the rest of the world

it really is just academia and media bullshitters

Maybe I’m dumb but isn’t right wing conservative
