    Would you like a small loan to invest in the 2nd amendment?

      I’d like to not be killed by Ice or sent to prison that does not align with my gender and be raped+killed actually.

      EDIT: Oh also I wouldn’t like to to be locked into an detention facility to be sexually abused by the actual “law enforcement.”

        I just don’t get it. You people have the 2nd amendment. Your government allowed countless atrocities to happen against children using the gun telling you the gun is important to keep around in case the government becomes tyrannical. Now nobody is willing to pick up the gun to use it against the government and all of it’s employees. It’s really a masterclass of how a government gives you a tool and you refuse to use it. Do you own a gun? Do you and your like minded community practice self defense with a gun like a good American should?

          One person with a gun achieves nothing against the government except getting themself killed, what is needed is a huge coordinated effort where some of them will surely die.

          The founding fathers really should have built better protection against corruption than expecting the people to fight and die to put things right again

            Still don’t understand how this is works if the 2nd amendment gives us the right to guns? They can’t just kill you for having a gun legally?

              Unfortunately, they physically can and they do (see Alex Pretti) and the law won’t help you come back from the dead. And the law doesn’t protect you from a fascist government that doesn’t obey laws. And furthermore, you’re not asking people to merely possess guns. Is that how you think the second amendment works? They just walk around possessing guns and the dictatorship falls? You’re asking them to USE the guns and using guns against the government will get you arrested or killed

                Possessing guns can collapse dictatorships though. That’s the tool of the 2nd amendment. Using the guns is the last resort of course, but we can demonstrate to the government that we have guns. Once they are aware that there is a large gathering of gun owners they will think twice how they proceed.

                The left is so smart yet they constantly fail to understand how to utilize the 2nd amendment to their and the country’s benefit.

          Yes I get it very well, you want to see blood because you like it but dress it up with a lot of pretty words.
