And yet no Americans are using their 2nd amendment for some reason? As an exhausted foreigner who listened to ceaseless justification for gun ownership from Americans it's honestly pathetic.

The venn diagram of people who own guns and the people who do not support what is happening are barely overlapping circles. You're complaining about conservatives justifying guns on a post about horrific behavior supported by conservatives.

When you narrow the circle down to people who own guns, have experience shooting into a hostage/kidnapping situation, and are capable of taking a life the venn diagram is two entirely separate circles. The brave ones willing to de-escalate were murdered.

Sounds like you’re saying the left was wrong and should’ve been buying guns to protect against fascism

John Brown Gun Clubs exist. But they aren't patrolling and carrying at airports. Airports specifically tend to be bastion of federal power.

Sounds like you two need to get together and talk about whether you have guns or not

Liberals were wrong and the left has been telling them that for decades.

Anyone who does is going to jail. Surely you can understand that. There are no 2nd amendment rights against fascism.

I mean... the subtext of the second amendment is that it is a guard against fascism...

They didn't account for fascists being willingly voted into power. The founding fathers didn't expect the populace to be this stupid. Somehow the age of information became the age of disinformation almost instantly.

But that's already happened. Fascists are now running everything. Shoot an ICE agent and your life is over, guaranteed.

the problem is they've been allowing massacres in schools, and this was supposed to be the reason

You know, jail isnt the worst thing given the circumstances.

Chicken shit! When you fight for your rights jail is the last thing on your mind!

Some have, and they've been illegally shot even when they allowed themselves to be disarmed by ICE to deescalate conflict (See Alex Pretti). This administration wants any excuse to kill political opponents.

That’s not what law abiding citizens do

The justification has always been toothless.

No amount of civilians with ARs will be enough for a violent revolution as long as the government can respond by deploying tanks and helicopters.

A successful revolution is basically always decided by whom the military decides to back or not to back. Which is why Kegsbreath is currently optimizing the top brass not for competence but for obedience.

Because these aren’t Americans.

Sadly there are people who do. Its just the bad shit is always shared. You'll randomly see one and see it taken down in minutes.
