    Yes, proles. Give up your only means of fighting back. We promise your right to vote is strong enough to protect you from anything.

    Fucking delusional.

      What’s fucking delusional is thinking that a bunch of civilians armed with handguns and rifles could ever match a modern military should it come to violent revolution or, alternatively, that arming civilians with the kind of weaponry that WOULD do the trick isn’t just a recipe for needless slaughter.

        Ah yes, so the only other option is to roll over, give up your freedom, and trust the government to protect you from everything. Solid logic there.

          Nope, it categorically isn’t. That’s a strawman/false dichotomy combo so ridiculous that I doubt you’re actually sane enough to be entrusted with any weapon more dangerous than a camping spork.

            Well I could show you my gun collection but at this point I’m fairly certain that you would just shit yourself in fear.

            Anyway, have fun being unarmed with the state of the world today. The far right will continue stockpiling weapons and you’ll be knocking on the doors of guys like me if and when they finally decide to use them.

            That’s the thing that you’re not getting bud. The far right isn’t going to be using their guns against the military or the government. They’re going to be using the guns against us.

              statistically speaking that gun is going in your own mouth before you ever use it to serve your community

              Typical ammosexual trait: can’t distinguish between common sense and cowardice 🙄

              Anyway, have fun being unarmed with the state of the world today.

              Thanks, I am and so is the vast majority of people in a radius of 1000+ miles from me.

              The far right will continue stockpiling weapons

              Because ridiculously lax laws and even more lax enforcement allows them to. They’re like politicians with bribes in that aspect.

              you’ll be knocking on the doors of guys like me if and when they finally decide to use them.

              Nah, I think I’ll just wait indoors until someone much more emotionally stable deals with it after your Rambo wannabe antics have gotten you killed.

              The far right isn’t going to be using their guns against the military or the government. They’re going to be using the guns against us

              And why is that? Because of the lack of laws, regulations, and enforcement. Not because wannabe tough guys like you don’t have enough penis extenders that go boom.

              That’s the thing that you’re not getting, “bud”
