At this point I feel like organizers need to consult with the French on how to throw a revolution.
They got a bad wrap (rap? I'm not sure, only heard it spoken) with WW2, but man... they could revolt.
Guillotines were unwieldy, near stationary equalizers. Imagine what the American people could do with plentiful arms and ammunition. I know, that AR15 isn't gonna stop a tank, but a militant group of rednecks with access to basic chemistry supplies can be dangerous.
Sadly, the it seems the people who want to "fight tyranny" and buy all the guns and ammo en masse are also fascist bootlickers.
I lean left, hard. That being said, I remain very Pro 2A.
I haven't been worried about the military with all the stochastic terrorism in the red states I've lived in, I've been worried about my neighbors. And I gotta tell ya, Cletus with his temu body armor and lack of fingers is a concern, but not so much as a military vehicle (or militarized police vehicle) worry me.
But honestly, if the military refuses to uphold their oath to protect the constitution against enemies foreign and (more importantly) domestic - well, we're all fucked.
Uncle Sam does not fuck around when it comes to exterminating civilians, and pigs are just military wash outs who didn't exceed the intelligence requirement.
