>>65469182Brits today have to put on this weird show regarding guns lest anyone think they're about to commit a hate crime
>getting this worked up over a bullet
>>65469182This is the country that has actually arrested people over meme's, did you really expect anything else?
are all brits faggots or just their government?
>>65469182I gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed it was chambered, nope just laying under the floor.
>>65469182The bongs are such a silly people, it's a shame they won't exist in 100 years
>>65469182>not wondering if the round is still good >not chambering it in one of the guns and testing it against another tank>not having a brief pause after it does fire off then saying "... THE POWER OF GERMAN ENGINEERING "
>>65469182Nothing in this article is hysterical. They thought they knew the tank inside and out, were surprised to find a live round when they removed a panel, removed the gunpowder and primer, put it in their collection.
>>65469219>meme'sMeme's what?
>>65469252Imagine your country went through a war where most of your males with high IQ, courage, a sense of honor, and good breeding in general were killed. What would this do to the collective gene pool of your country? It would be catastrophic, right? Now repeat this experiment one generation later.You now know what the fuck went wrong with most of Europe. It happened during the last century but they'll still be paying for it during the next century, assuming that they survive this one, and that's looking doubtful. Fortunately they took a lot of pictures, wrote a lot of stories, and made a lot of paintings, so we won't entirely forget them. It's still sad though. It wasn't all that long ago that they were still relevant, and now they're going away. Such a shame.

>>65469264>Nothing in this article is hystericalIf it was an American museum they'd just leave it there and nobody would care at all because they're not retarded fags who think guns are the root of all evil
>>65469486>they'd just leave itlol no
>>65469472Germans really did manage to destroy Europe with their chimpouts, didn't they?
>>65469514WW1 wasn't a German chimpout, it was simply the natural conclusion of large defence alliances.
>>65469182>The museum said ammunition of such age "can be unstable and potentially dangerous" but it was "carefully deactivated"I'm pretty sure an M-80 has more explosive energy than a single round of 8mm Mauser
>>65469526nta, but honestly I'd say singular defensive alliances (with additional agendas, of course) It wasn't as though it were large blocks going to war, they kinda just all ended up on the same side through circumstance without actual alignment in most cases.russia->serbiafrance->russiagermany->austriaengland->belgiumjapan->englandand so on.
>>65469182Wow, it's literally fucking nothing at all.>>65469190>>65469201Isn't it sick?>>65469264It IS hysterical.
>>65469229Bit of both, really
>>65469526Ackshually, it was a Bongistan chimpout in that Bong were worried that the German Navy could rival the RN. Since Bongland and Xer empire 150% depends on the RN (Bong Army were retards still stuck on horse cavalry), they could not allow this to happen. So the Bongs cunningly manuevered the Germans to have no choice but to fight them. The Franz Ferdinand thing merely set off the powder keg.
>>65469264This.It's another case of journalistic engagement bait, weaving a story of shock or rage or skub out of a guy finding a wwII round in a tank and going 'huh'.And OP fell for it.
>>65469601Probably because there's legit been stories where someone finds a random loose round of .22 lying somewhere and they honest to god called in the bomb squad for it.The expectations are low.
>>65469545WW1 was essntially caused by Russia, they made a 'defensive alliance' with Serbia then paid Serbian assassins to kill the Austrian crown prince.
>>65469472It's a bit too simplistic a take IMO, the heyday of Euro gun laws was 80s to 90s-ish in most countries. Even in the UK you could own semi auto rifles until Hungerford and that was late 80's.
>>65469630Why the fuck would Russia want to go to war while in the middle of their army rearmament and modernization program? This is on Germans and them throwing a tantrum because they were late to the colonization game but still wanting lebensraum
There's some extremely>organicposting going on in this thread
>>65469648Go look it up. Dr. Clark wrote a pretty good book on it.The tl;dr is that various ministers in Russia, without ever talking to the Tsar, decided to do a little Balkan politics.They had an alliance with Serbia, of course, but they basically did a black project and paid Serbian nationalists to commit acts of terrorism against Austria-Hungary in Bosnia.This resulted in a bunch of Serbian assassins being on the streets in Sarajevo that day, which then kicked off the shitstorm after Austria-Hungary demanded satisfaction for teh death of their imperial heir.And since Russia wanted a war against AH to expand their holdings in the Balkans, they heroically sprang to the defense of the Serbs.Germanay, who also wanted war against Russia, honored their 'Carte Blanche' agreement with AH (ironically aslo without much input from the Kaiser)France, who wanted revanche for 1871, honored their alliance with Russia.And Germany went through Belgium, becasue they had retards doing the planning, which caused Britain to honor their defensive alliance.Bonus points to the British for fucking up their relations to the Ottomans, who objected to having their ships seized, and were then persuaded to joing teh Germans.Double bonus points to Italy for betraying their alliance partners and getting fucking nothing in the end.
These queers really believe that Germs never do wrong huh.
>>65469182British "citizens" bean each other in the head with increasingly esoteric objects that then need to be licensed as weapons, and act like bullets are the problem.
>>65469690>Bonus points to the British for fucking up their relations to the Ottomans, who objected to having their ships seized, and were then persuaded to joing teh Germans.To be fair, who cares about a country that everyone knew wouldn't exist come the next decade?
So what has the UK done now to upset the usual suspects?
>>65469730Yeah, but if they'd simply let them have their two (pretty bad) dreadnoughts, they could've saved a lot blood, sweat, tears and effort.They bsaically handed Germany a free diploatic win, made tha Russian position worse, allowed those two German ships to remain in the fight instead of spending the war in internment, and caused a shitload of British colonial troops to die in strategically useless places.The Ottoman downfall and ME clusterfuck are still (probably) going to happen, but in a slower and maybe a little less bloody way, with less British and French meddling.
>>65469732Might still be aftershocks from the announcement that they'd give Ukraine the license to make Storm Shadow.
>>65469732>only russians make fun of bongs
>>65469514>decide to escalate a local war into a world war because you want to defend slavs and jews>win but it destroys your empire>force your native population to start to worship sandniggers and jeetsNot really the Germans fault that the british are race traitors.
>>65469907We havea a bunch of spammers here who constantly go>Germoney fucked everything up, everyone else dindu nuffinsee>>65469514Not sure if they're zigger shills indirectly pushgingt their NATO = nazis narrative, asshurt Korean shills mad over losing the next few contracts, extremely organic and real 'concenrned europeans' or just schizos who forgot their meds.
>>65469201>Be me, American>Work at a movie theater>Find a couple 9mm bullets under a seat while cleaning>Neat, free ammo>Pocket them and shoot them at the range later
>>65469732>as if bong civilians being complete fucking pansies has literally anything to do with Ukraine. Someone finally tell you to go see a dentist?
What blew up in Russia?
>>65469690>Austria-Hungary demanded satisfaction for teh death of their imperial heir.I don't think Austria Hungary gets enough shit for their role in starting WW1, to be honest. They wanted to go to war against and absorb Serbia for years at that stage and the assassination was almost a pretext. They made no attempt to resolve things diplomatically. That's not even opinion, that's a historical fact.
>>65469190Americans today are fat ignorant and poorly educated, and everything has to be dragged into their pathetic culture wars. Don’t worry fatty, I suspect that you won’t have to worry too much longer about other cultures and societies, because you’ll hear nothing about them and won’t be able to visit them.
>>65469991mad bong alert!
omg more bullets found at the nearby gas station
>>65469991>AmericansRent free, bongoloid
>>65469526If you look at the naval arms race from the ~1890 to 1914, a very reasonable conclusion is not just that WWI was inevitable, but that it's pretty amazing that it took that long to start. The big players in Europe had been spoiling for a fight for decades by that point.>>65469630Incorrect. England wanted it. France wanted it. Germany wanted it. Ferdinand was the excuse, not the reason. If he'd survived, someone would have found another reason to start a war in the next five years.>>65469944Germany was responsible for the Cold War, and everything that resulted from it. They deserve to be shat upon for that, if nothing else.
>>65469991>Division postingThis whole thread is just /pol/tards spamming again /k/ again using a sensationalist headline as bait.
>>65470051>Germany was responsible for the Cold War,I want to hear your reasoning on this. Is it some cockbrained 'ww2 resulted in the cold war' type idea? 'Cause if so you might as well blame the cold war on rome.
>>65469190>>65469201To be fair, ammunition improperly stored (lost) for 80 years underneath some random panel can be unpredictable. Sure, even if it went off, it likely wouldn't do much, but it would certainly be an event. Which they mention in the article.>>65469264Too many don't actually READ the news. They just pick up some headlines and borderline AI-generate, so to speak, the rest in their heads. Guided by preexisting notions, naturally.Doesn't help that faggots like OP post ONLY the fucking headline, reddit-ass shitboot that he is.
>>65469486Do you seriously fucking think museum staff in any first-world country would wilfully leave live ammunition inside an exhibit?
>>65469242I'm sure it was pointed right at people though! Even muslim ones!
>>65469648Well, you know they're stupid right?
>>65469690Ok, I could see that, but everybody thinking they would get a 1v1 they want only gets us to July Crisis, but not over it, when they realized that it will actually be red vs blue type of deal. At this point everybody started going "whoa, whoa, holl'up" except for Germans, who knowing they had the best army were like "fuck it, we ball". War was going to happen before 1917, most likely in 1915, before Russians could finish their modernization, Serbs just provided the casus belli and sped up the process. "Europe's Last Summer" goes into details about this and how they actively pushed for the war to happen>>65469944>anybody saying anything about Germans is a zigger/gook/shillThat's a very wide net you're casting right there and the epitome of zigger mentality. I thought not facing your history is untermensch trait>inb4 you're a zigger/shillRussia should have been dealt with in 1944, 1990, 2014 and 2022 and 3 out of 4 times, Germans wanted cheap gas instead
Can someone post that vid of a dumb Brit wearing gloves to handle a fake sword?
>>65469944No, some of it is France.
>>65469182I remember an article I saw on /k/ a ways back, and it was when some shopkeeper at a Tescos or some shit found a crusty old .22lr round by the entryway to the store. They ended up closing the whole shop, swat showed up, people gave panicked interviews, it was like, a BIG DEAL. So gay. As much as I feel bad that Britian is dying... they definitely did this to themselves and deserve it.
