If you're a leftist in the US and you want to really scare the shit out of conservatives, get a gun and learn how to use it.
If they ever manage to take away our voting rights, they're not gonna give them back just cause we asked nicely.
A-ha but if I call out a contradiction in their opinions surely they will fold.
Just let them gain power for a short time and people will see their true face and not vote for them again. Worked in Germany. The NSDAP never got a majority of votes.
the nazi occupation being notably bloodless and easy to get rid off..
And allow them to get their message out on every possible platform all the time. This will not normalize hate speech and recruit members at all but will make people will see they are evil and ignore at them until they evaporate.
Did you know that the leader of the NSDAP took his life once he realized that he has failed? While this is a sad fate of an individual, it tells alot about how people can be chastened not by silencing them but quite the opposite way.
Even better - the leader of the NSDAP killed Hitler! Truly a hero of democracy 🫡
We celebrate people who tried but not the one who succeeded. Makes you think.
Doesn't work. I have several. And I have a concealed carry. A conservative knowing these things has never been scared. They use it as an excuse to pull out theirs because they think like children and have to show and tell. Even if it's in a public place, like the damn corner of a courthouse. Which is not the kind of place a responsible adult should ever reveal a weapon.
Yikes. My condolences. That sounds stressful, to say the least.
I have a concealed curry, in case me wife eats it
You're a fucking coward and would run as soon as you heard a gunshot, just like every gun-owning coward in the US 😂
Running is a very good strategy. In non-stand your ground states if you have the opportunity to run you have a legal obligation to. It means you aren't in immediate danger. In a stand your ground state you have the option to run. But if the person shooting isn't visible then sneaking around with a gun trying to find them is how a good-guy with a gun ends up dead like John Hurley.
Part of being a responsible gun owner is knowing when to run.
john hurley took the mass shooter's gun and was killed by the cops, him sneaking around was the part that lead to him killing the shooter
And getting killed. First rule of engagement is to survive.
very occasionally, acting heroically is worth dying for. but one major rule to surviving is to believe that the cops will act as bad as they possibly can
Hi macho privileged 15 year old from suburbia
Are you a pirate that is just always prepared to celebrate your wife's death with a tasty noodle or rice dish?
oh, i thought i was trigger happy and obsessed with using my gun. just tryna figure out which generalization it is
Also, learn how to fly drones if you can, if (when?) things go shit-fan-hitting globally, that seems like a really useful skill to have in your group, considering how the face of warfare looks at the moment.
With a quick reminder: If you in any way can, don't do this solo, connect with others, don't get arrogant about it, either. The fascist preppers have a huge weakness in their narcissistic individualist "I am better than the sheep" prepping style. Being able to actually support and organise a community in the potentially coming chaos is important.
