Tbf both sides end up resorting to bureaucratic fuckery to undermine both legal gun sales and access to legal abortion to the degree where it’s nearly impossible for anyone who isn’t rich and have considerable resources to get either. Though technically legal, it’s a bad and lovely manipulation of the law and the “I’M NOT HITTING YOU! I’M NOT HITTING YOU!” way of attaining a similar policy goal.

See also “woke corporations” doing similar things. I have a friend who thinks it’s great that Salesforce is basically barring any shop that sells semi-autos from using their software, yet doesn’t see the problem if a similar corporation were to ban Planned Parenthood or abortion clinics from using theirs.

But of course the real naif is me because I’d rather see lawmakers do their loving jobs and debate and compromise on legislation here in TYOOL 2019 in the Hellfucker timeline, so yeah.

The NRA is largely responsible for undermining legal gun sales by making it a free for all.

Largely by fighting against implementation of common sense background check laws and restrictions.

MOM WAS RIGHT
You don't even address sailors by their rank typically, it's their rating and a number

So like the Army equivalent would be something like calling her 11B2 (for Petty Officer, 2nd class) Doe.

Navy rating structure isn't THAT hard to learn but it was infuriating to be around as a soldier in a joint environment, because the sailors I met get all pissy when you don't address them by the rate instead of rank, even when you can't really tell what their rating is when you meet.

This was made worse because I have a bad memory and the rates didn't always have anything to do with their current position.

Only emojis can express my pure, simple stupidity.

Only the Navy has a worthless e-6 rank that has no pull and pushes brooms; coupled with a segregated E-7+ that spend more time circle jerking and going on about tradition than doing anything useful for their Joe’s. I’m surprised we don’t have to salute them

Then e-4 is a 3rd class, e-5 2nd, and e-6 1st. Who decided that poo poo?

And I’ve never met anyone that doesn’t get into a fuss when you call them petty officer. It’s only used when you’re trying to patronize someone or be condescending. Boot camp was especially annoying: “i’m not a PETTY officer do I look like a PETTY officer I work for a living.” Uh ok then. In boot camp you don’t “rate” calling them by their actual job title

Lest we forget the Navy tried to get rid of the job title rank poo poo that no one else does e.g. an E-5 Hospital Corpsman being an HM2. Not sure why it’s not HC but hey. People lost their minds and they quickly reversed it.

Oh yeah and if you don’t know the person the only way you’d know their job title is if you could identify the job symbol on their dress uniform. Also flight suits are uniforms but god forbid you wear coveralls—you know an actual working uniform—anywhere.

generally e-4 to e-6 but to confuse you even more e-7 is a “chief” but the whole title is “chief petty officer,” e-8 is senior chief petty officer and e-9 master

It’s above lower enlisted but not an officer. Etymology is French and petty meaning petit or “small,” but I believe that assumption may be incorrect and just a coincidence. Yes I know like half our poo poo is modeled after the French especially the word Sergeant etc.

You could also technically call an e-4 PO3 but I never really saw that
