    All the anti-2a people have accomplished is to help the fascists into power and render themselves helpless against them.

    Fascism is here, and the Second Amendment has never once been restricted in any practical fashion. That means that fascism rose to power while everyone was fuckin strapped. Nobody has done shit so far except that one kid in Butler who was a bad shot.

    What do you still need so that you’d have been a genuine threat to the world’s global military hedgemon? A personal F-15 Eagle?

      This is a fallacy and it’s a stupid one.

      What do I need not to die in the first 0.5 seconds? 20 more of me.

      One guy with some guns doesn’t last long.

      20-30 armed people tend to last much longer barring an ATF vs. Waco deal.

      See: those Ranchers assholes who didn’t want to pay to graze their cattle on public land, Cliven Bundy I think was one of their names, or the problematic but still effective in this instance NFAC who proved that if you peacefully protest while armed as fuck, suddenly - like magic - you’re afforded your first amendment rights and don’t get the fuck beaten out of you.
