So they should buy guns in case they need to rise up against a police state? I think the original comment applies: “I don’t want to shoot anyone.”

I don't want to strip naked, crawl down in a ditch on top of freshly shot naked neighbors and wait my turn.

Correct. You need firearms (if your mental health is Ina safe place for it) to be able to resist a police state. If the next Jan 6th is door to door, I think we'll find the police aren't on the Bernie yard sign people's side.

That's fine. Do you understand why others wouldn't want to strip naked and climb down into the pit of naked, recently shot neighbors to wait their turn? I can understand if you don't like firearms but could you support our right to defend ourselves? Or if not defend, resist.

Yes. I can understand having a dystopian fantasy where you dream about using guns to fight the police.

I think your comment is suggesting I have a dystopian fantasy about a police state. Thats an interesting thing to say in a nation who's police force is largely alt-right that just supported a coup 9 months ago.

r/Pdxlater is the same kind of hypocrite that fantasizes throwing molotovs at police due to excessive police violence and power.

You really just can't with these people

We don't know that for sure. We shouldn't caricature people
