I hope my fellow Democrats are finally beginning to see why disarming ourselves was such a bad fucking idea.
No, I don’t want people to run around randomly murdering each other. These laws haven’t stopped that.
It’s going to be hard to fight fascism when only the fascists are armed.
Then you get the smug assholes posting questions like, “Hey gun owners why aren’t you standing against tyranny for me?” as though I could do shit alone.
Can you share a meaningful number of examples showing Democrats with guns standing up to neo-fascists?
Because while your comment has an air of sensibility, the news stories that I’ve seen over the decades give the impression that the Americans who choose to own guns to protect their rights are overwhelmingly supporters of the very fascists that are in the spotlight now. I would love reason to believe otherwise, but since I don’t have one, I am skeptical of your argument.
None of those are examples of people using firearms to stand against tyranny. Not even at a small scale, let alone a meaningful one.
(Note that racist organisations are not governments. They’re awful, but they are not fascism and do not constitute tyranny.)
