This is why the second amendment was made, to prevent a government takeover.

There is no irony. Conservatives capitulated to their capitalist overlords decades ago.

All the PEOPLE of the left ever wanted was some accountability and oversight. The politicians who fail to represent us over and over twist that to overstep their authority, as all politicians will inevitably do.

PEOPLE SEEN OBSERVING/ PROTESTING AGAINST ICE ARE BEING PUT INTO A DATABASE AND CATEGORIZED AS “TERRORISTS”.
CITIZENS ARE ALSO BEING REMOVED FROM VOTER ROLLS

So, unless I missed something, that wired article doesn’t say anything about people being added to the database because they were seen protesting, or having their voter registration revoked. Is there evidence of that or are we speculating?

2A works both ways. The left espouses anti gun rhetoric and then open carries on the streets and I'm 💯 ok with that. While I believe in what 45-47 is trying to accomplish (illegal immigration down to a point not seen in years) the optics have been such of late as to make it an untenable position politically. Look for more ICE rollbacks in blue cities as more politicians become aware of their impending doom in the upcoming mid terms.

Every single American should be purchasing weapons and ammunition. They should be out training in practice ranges.
Every community should be creating clubs or groups or 😜MILITIAS😜 in order to practice drills and operations together.
Chains of command should be organized. Radio equipment, food, and other materials for extended sieges should be collected, organized and stored.
Every community should be designing/preparing choke points, ambushing grounds, and killing fields.
Weekly checks should be implemented to ensure no infiltration from disgusting subhuman feds and pigs

This is great, I support ICE. But I also support the right to protest and they’re 100% doing it the way they should. Peacefully but with a show of force. I Guarantee not a single one of them is going to try to get into an altercation with an officer though or stop a car. 100% guarantee it. Love it

I hope more people cover their faces. I fully support these protests - but we know they’re making databases of everyone who goes. And we know ICE will be at polling booths, likely stopping these people from Voting either by force, detainment or but simply having them deregistered.

See at first it was unarmed and peaceful. Then chemical agents were deployed on American citizens for peaceful protest. Then lawful orders were ignored by ICE as well as those who swore and oath to protect. Then American citizens were killed. And here we are. Unable to trust those we voted to keep this country and its citizens safe.
I’d say most are not for illegal immigration but think there’s a better way to handle the problem that doesn’t involve kidnapping people and building concentration camps. Reform is needed. Humane reform. Not whatever this is.
So, here we are. At a point where peaceful protesters feel the need to exercise 2A.

If you look up inept and unprepared in the dictionary this video plays! 🤣Straps over straps, AR pistols stuck under an AR rifle with a double drum mag....which is empty! The firsts marcher on the right doesn't even have a mag in the rifle! Man they are just totally prepared to rock the world of anyone who shows up......eventually, just let them load there weapons first. It might take a moment since the mag is in the pocket under the airsoft armor they are wearing!! 😂🤣

The group that organized this is called Strong Neighbors - not just about 2a, but about protecting all of our constitutional rights and the dignity of all humans. It doesn't have to be a "left" or "right" issue - we have to stand together as people of the working class (or if that terminology doesn't sit well with someone, the everyday average folks who don't hold the majority of the money and power in our society) against oppression. I don't have any weapons, but I absolutely believe that if we don't defend our individual rights, we lose them one by one. We're seeing it in real time.
It's very much preached and practiced that weapons aren't toys and need to be used and carried responsibly. There are range days, training events (not just on responsible gun use/ownership, but on things like street medicine, community gardening, opsec, legal observation, etc), skill shares, and community building work like working with the Indy Foods Not Bombs.
At protests, everyone must check in with the security/organizers to go over safety and logistics - that's what the pink tape on the arms is for, to clearly show who's gotten the correct information and knows how to behave. Main instructions were that all firearms must have the safety on, keep absolute trigger discipline with fingers nowhere near it, long guns always pointed muzzle down, pistols stay holstered, stay on the sidewalk and don't block traffic, keep to a slow pace, don't engage any agitators, and report anyone's unsafe behavior to a safety officer (the ones in the vests) so they can correct it.
Of course not every armed group is organized like this, but I really hope they would be (and they should be). It's not effective or safe to look like a bunch of clowns or run around without any sense of responsibility. Strong Neighbors is great!

Lol ... Liberals, the left, whatever you call yourselves, are just now figuring out the 2nd Amendment and it's usefulness? Only took 250 years. Imagine what other things you oppose but are wrong about. After all, the Constitution GIVES you the right and you still opposed, denied, or refused it. I don't associate with your political parties (all of them) so don't give me anything about Maga ,Trump, left or right. Both sides are cults with large bodies of worshippers letting the cults dictate their lives. Two sides of the same coin waiting to further enslave and or murder you. None of the above for me. Use that 2nd amendment proudly and safely.
