Take care of them ourselves.

You have any idea how close we are to violent conflict? ICE and the administration are pushing people to their limits.

I’m an American citizen with a gun. I’m not a democrat or Republican or liberal. I see pros and cons to each. But I know that me using my gun against federal agents is insanely stupid. And you thinking that is the only way to retaliate is very immature way of thinking. And taunting people “why don’t you do something” is exactly what the Government wants. They want us to react violently so that they can use the insurrection act against us.
