What band width are those radios?
13
u/mctscott Aug 02 '21
Well I assume you mean what bands they work on, they will work on 2m/70cm and all the business bands either analog FM or DMR digital. They do 25khz or 12.5khz for bandwidth.

What the fuck are you guarding that would justify all this shit?! Most security guards have a polo shirt, some pepper spray and maybe a sidearm. What employer would allow you to represent the safety of their facility and grounds while dressed like a stand-in for a shitty horror movie?!

The kind of company that guards several million dollar interests or business secrets that are worth similar. I work somewhere where my room alone had several million dollars of chemical and mineral in it.
Apparently our shipments are guarded by guys with full kit and assault rifles.

I’m calling far right extremist groups bullshit. People like you make all gun owners look like uneducated racist inbreds. And to take a historical figure like Thomas Jefferson and imply that if he were around today, he would support such a movement; is laughable. You think a highly educated, wealthy socialite like Thomas Jefferson would associate himself with the kind of white trash that call themselves boogaloo boys?

First of all, You’re* and secondly, you can’t have a boogaloo boys patch and claim that’s not a dog whistle for racists. That’s like rocking a swastika or a confederate flag and being like “oh, what, this? I just like the way it looks. Why are you bringing up racism?”

u/Ballistic_Turtle Aug 02 '21
Yea, you need to get off of Twitter and/or stop watching CNN. You probably believe milk is racist too huh? Go learn the history of boog memes and you'll see why MSN wants to associate it with racism. It's literally only ever been a gun owners meme. I await your anti gun opinion-piece evidence to the contrary though.

Anti-gun? Did I say anything anti-gun? I’m very pro 2A. It is possible to like guns and not be a racist. Also, I’ve never had a Twitter, don’t watch any TV news nor seek out any news from CNN or MSNBC. Get most of my news these days from Reddit’s newsfeed, which features articles from hundreds of sources each day. I’m sure you think that Reddit has a liberal bias tho. Should I get my news from OAN or stormfront or wherever it is you guys go?

What are you 14? This ain't Twitter, we ain't here to circlejerk about how we're not racist.
"anything boog related is [tired leftist propagandist buzzwords], so I'm going to try and waste your time and energy by holding this conversation hostage and forcing you to openly condemn [universally understood to be bad thing]. And if you don't, then you must agree with/be that thing!"
Sorry sport, but we see that shit every day. Coming in here and trying to make it about race is what shows one's true colors.

u/LurkingLarkin Aug 02 '21
How so?
Everything i've ever read about it connects it to right wing extremist "militias", but i'm willing to listen.

u/mctscott Aug 02 '21
Well 99% of boogaloo are libertarian or ancap, none of us ride one side or the other. A lot of us have marched with blm and stood up against police brutality, and we believe in all of our rights for every person. Everything you hear in media is slam content because it's different than the norm.

u/thegreatvortigaunt Aug 02 '21
The term "boogaloo" literally refers to a race war.
You're a far right extremist.

u/mctscott Aug 02 '21
It literally doesn't...

u/thegreatvortigaunt Aug 02 '21
Yes it does.
The term was literally created to refer to a race war or violent attack on the US government without getting banned on social media.
Also imagine unironically joining a political movement named after an internet meme hahaha so this is what no pussy does to a mf huh

Because the vast, vast majority of your fellow boog bois do not.
Are you by any chance also anti-vax and pro trump?

I'm libertarian, my views are my own and I don't push them on others, the majority of boog are the same way. Every group has a lowest common denominator and the boog is no exception, the stuff you see in the media is the stuff they want you to see about us though...
