      Because in America things like the Tulsa Race Massacre happen a fair bit, and the cops either stand by or join in, so you have to be able to defend you and yours.

      Remember folks, armed minorities are harder to oppress.

      Because we need to be able to defend ourselves and our communities from fascism and others who want to oppress us. Easier said than done of course.

        Unfortunately the definition of fascism varies depending on who you’re talking to. There are an astounding number of people in this country who think that allowing abortion or gender affirming care are a form of fascism. And they think it’s alright to use guns to fight what they perceive as fascism.

            So what you wanted to say was not a single one right? And you surely are not going to any time soon, just as any other guy that parroted those talking points over the last couple decades.

                I shot 2 ICE agents what are you scared for? That the facists come after you? I thought you’re the big boy that sticks to the guns so he can shoot the baddies?

                I am so sick of those bastards cowering behind those stupid arguments and act like they’re going to be fucking heroes while being part of ruining the current state of living, because of those fuckwhits kids come home from school with PTSD so they can talk some little bit of action into their boring pathetic lifes so they talk themselves into these bullshit narratives instead of crying themselves to sleep
