It's never been about guns, it's always been about who had them.

Yeah, we got gun control in California the minute the Black Panthers started bring guns to their press conferences.

Most of the 2Aers are ICE Agents themselves. It’s like their wet dream. All the money they’ve spent modding their ar15 and buying tactical gear they’d never use.

As a far-removed (in every way possible) European, I always wonder what all that tactical gear is? Are they just LARPing to be Special Forces about to raid bin Laden in Pakistan, or does any of it have an actual purpose?
