Boston globe Mill article
- Thread starter zboys
- Start date
FFL I picked up my rifle at said he has been non stop busy since the article and he’s just part time.Listened as two guys raved about how excited they were to have found the dealers at the mill and how it was all thanks to the Boston Globe article. So I guess someone owes the anti-gun activist pretending to be Globe journalist a thanks.
Although I did notice those two Mill first timers handled a lot of stuff but did not lay any cash on the counter before leaving.
I on the other hand was there cash in hand to pickup a P365XL to replace my standard P365 that my wife has informed me is hers now.
My thanks for a pleasant transaction goes to @Dean Safety a straight shooter (pun intended).

I’ll bet the whorehouses advertise in the states where whorehouses are legal.
Public record requires effort to see... A newspaper article online easily accessed by fat post menopausal purple haired women well versed in banging on their keyboards like screaming monkeys on their Facebook page requires nothing but time and an internet connection.
All the press the Mill FFL's needs is on here, and I believe they were doing great business prior to the article. Pretty sure 87% of the Mill's FFL's would probably be fine if that article was never written and people never started opening their fat mouths.
Gunowners being their own worst enemies will get no arguments from me, I own guns, yet I am not a gun owner. People who's whole identity is tied to inanimate objects are always kinda suspect lol
Sometimes I wonder if gun owners enjoy the misery. We have so little fight in us that we need our FFLs to operate in secrecy?
Yikes.
Yikes.
In NV, not really except the big sign outside
People who go there know they exist, no need to advertise I guess.
I see what you are saying... But to me it's like putting a metric shit ton of Trump and gun stickers on your car.. People gonna do what they want to do, I just don't want to see the Mill go away.
This place is not immune to that either, though I like to think the % is lower in our sub-set.
Effort? protip: it doesn’t take a foia request to get a list of dealers. it takes about 5 minutes tops. less if you know what you’re doing.
I agree but good luck getting joe fungoehead to shut his mouth.
bzzt. you’re marked for death by the state just like the rest of us, welcome to the party….
. i don’t wear that on a badge either myself so i get what you mean. I know what you mean, aka “the people who are a little too enthusiastic” Like that guy we had around here several years ago who had to get an attorney because he was running his mouth too much in the forum to the point someone took notice, and his police chief was sitting on his license about to hit him a the suitability denial because he thought the guys behavior was suspect…. yeah, those people….. They should probably stick to telling their imaginary friend instead of google….
this x1000. I need to unfollow those groups too as it’s just painful. The posts are just retarded. There was a gem yesterday. “Can anyone tell me if this 9 round glock mag is preban?”
Anyway back to the mill
My point is this: If it was so easy for the Karen's to get all this info, why didn't they way before this article came out? They could have started their screeching years ago. Bottom line is the article and people opening their mouths did nothing to help and just opened the fat latte encrusted eyelids of all the Karen's in Littleton.
This place is not immune to that either, though I like to think the % is lower in our sub-set.
Actually in terms of raw numbers we get about one or two fatty McGee types a week asking erratic legal questions and then they get upset when we don’t give them the answer they want on a SilverPlatter and suggest they do some reading…. its always a version of this
“BWEE3eeeerou! SNORT! weeeeeeeeeeeeau!”
-fire alarm sounds-
“ Oh god its the fire department!!!! Fatty McGee we told you not to climb the stairs!!!!”
“BUT i LOIK the STAIRS!”
“Why fatty mcgee???”
“THEERE FUUN!!!”
wash rinse repeat
Good point

See @CrackPot's reply. They've changed the law; the mill is grandfathered. Short of evictions, this isn't a risk.
Victims get all sorts of dopamine hits when they commiserate with their fellows.

It is basically a truism in business that you're either expanding or dying. If your company is stagnant, one of three things is true: it's a hobby not a business, things will collapse if there's a small slow up of work, or you're laser targeting your market. Almost nobody falls in the last category.
The Karen’s didn’t do it the glob reporter did.
Someone either tipped her off or similar. IIRC that broad wasn't the only anti who was lurking, either. I have been told there have been separate incidents but I don't have details on the other one or the other person. There's someone may have been getting their wires crossed but it would not shock me if "Bloomberg et al" didn't tip off this globe reporter. Basically that a****** has a cottage industry of doxing gun dealers and things like that and trying to harass them / file bogus suits and so on so that's not really that much of a surprise.
Regardless it's not rocket appliances to figure out there's a few dealers in a building. Especially not when the industry goes through two years of record sales "anybody who's anybody" is going to get noticed eventually. Crying over spilled milk is pointless now anyways unless you can figure out some kind of serum to dump into the water to make some of the post 2013's shut their mouths about everything they touch.....

Of course they do. Even in Clark county, where prostitution is illegal, they advertise. The first time I visited Las Vegas, the yellow pages contained dozens of pages of listings for “Entertainers.” By the second time I visited (1996 or so), several brothels already had websites.

I still crack up over this one:
So this woman had NO issues bringing her cherub to the building before the Globe article? Never had a problem. It was none of her business, but if it was she blissfully ignored it. How many kids, to how many lessons in the same building, and never once had an issue of any sort.
Until the Globe TOLD her she should be incensed at the mere presence of law-abiding businesses that happen to sell items that are or are related to "ErmaGerd they're GUNS!"
Gimme a break, lady. Go back in your hole. Sorry to your kids that you're unsane.

My hunch is that her 'kids' will be a WHOLE LOT more 'sad' when they realize that the moron who
told them eat Tide Pods are the same ones who convinced them to cut their dk's off and Mom, who
was supposed to 'protect' them was an accessory to the whole debacle.
Most of these kids can't decide what flavor ice cream they want yet Mom & Dad are convincing them
that they are in the wrong bodies.

When you replied to me earlier you had this sort of mindset, and it was out of context to what my point was.
I don't think the Mill should be a secret. I think fans of the 2A should know about it and talk to each other about it. I also think that talking to an obvious hostile entity about how fine and dandy the Mill is when it's incredibly obvious that hostile entity will never under any circumstances be honest about it is crazy.
I don't know why people talked to the Globe about the mill. Did they think it was a good idea? Did they think they're smart enough to outwit the reporter? Are the simply morons? I have no idea. But those are the 3 options that come to mind and none of them seem like good ones.
Hell, one of the people who talked to the media is well known for a smart quote "no one ever got in trouble by keeping their mouth shut." It's good advice. What happened?
People keep good public land shooting areas secret for the same reason. When it gets out to the masses it usually ends. We know this.

Denchs' quote reminds me of A Christmas Story after the flagpole incident. "As kids we knew it was better to not say anything and keep out of trouble".

They even have their own porn category and everything...
Did people at the mill talk to them? Sure... but how much of what was told to them was twisted, distorted, misquoted, and/or simply made up out of whole cloth? Not to mention there's likely a bunch of false attributions from people that never really spoke to them. We already have evidence of that kind of thing in this thread from Jack and others contradicting what this
moonbat broad published.
When's the last time a moonbat "journalist" (and I use that term loosely) ever got harpooned in their career for being caught in a lie? Shit I think the last one around here was Mike Barnicle and that guy had to perpetually lie, hard, and get caught doing it, by various wealthy people to get clocked from the glob. Even after that scandal died down, he went off to other places that didnt give a shit about him being a liar or a plaigarist, like DemSNBC or other moonbat outlets.

Exactly. Which is why not talking to them at all is the only logical thing that should of went on.

If I had the loose cash I'd sue the Glob, not to get anything out of it, but just to expose their 80 gun shop lie since there are only 6 or 8. Jack.
here ya go...

Never give them a quote to twist and distort.
F*ck off is enough.
People never seem to learn.
