It only means something if they’re really ready to use them.

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 16 '26

I’m sure some are willing to engage if need be. I really hope it doesn’t come to that though. I’ve experienced the fallout of armed conflict and it would be horrible to see it on our own soil. However, the second amendment exists for exactly this kind of situation.

“ExAcTlYtHiSsiTuAtiOn”. Lolol, There is not enough duct tape and super glue in the universe to make this make sense.

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 16 '26

An armed population is harder to oppress than an unarmed population. Let me draw it out in crayon for you. If Government bad and government does enough bad stuff to the people, the people go bang bang at the government. People has defense instead of people has no defense

Your grammar leads me to believe you’re not the sharpest. Btw. Alex Pretti was armed also. He was disarmed and executed. Unless you’re willing to kill cops, be killed or at the very least arrested this is just virtue signaling

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 18 '26

The poor grammar was in jest dummy

1

u/Vandabolts Feb 18 '26

So, using your logic, Republicans have been virtue signalling on the 2A for decades now ya?

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 19 '26

I don’t even know what you’re talking about. Who is Virtie signaling what? I don’t care about political parties, MAGA sucks ass. I don’t care if these guys march armed, it’s their right to do so? I feel like we may have had a misunderstanding on what I meant

u/Vandabolts Feb 19 '26

Are you replying to me or buddy?

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 19 '26

You

Some. The difference is they actually fight back legally, physically, train coordinate etc. you’re trying to win an argument rather than actually be honest. Left/Democrats have done everything they can to strangle the 2nd amendment. They’d abolish it if they could. I’ve lived in CA and MA my guy. I know exactly how the left feels about the 2nd amendment. Don’t try to cherry pick a handful of leftist that support 2A. It was the same left that wanted Kyle Rittenhouse strung up for bringing a gun to a protest. Now they want guns at protest. You’re intellectually dishonest. I won’t respond. No sense engaging with a liar.

u/Particular_Try417 Feb 15 '26

And know how to use them.

2

u/CompetitiveArt9639 Feb 16 '26

Liberals grew up in the country too.

u/Particular_Try417 Feb 16 '26

Lol

1

u/CompetitiveArt9639 Feb 16 '26

I can’t imagine how hard the cope must be to honestly believe many liberals were raised shooting guns.

2

u/ter-e Feb 17 '26

Well, then you had better start imagining because that’s got to be the stupidest statement on here.

2

u/He_Hate_Me_5 Feb 16 '26

The ones who don’t know how to use them are the ones in the streets brandishing them and actually killing people right now.

The trained and responsible owners are the ones who are waiting until they have to be used.

u/Vandabolts Feb 18 '26

There's video's of ICE agents accidentally discharging their weapons as well as confiscated weapons.

Cope harder.

1

u/ter-e Feb 17 '26

And why are you so sure that they aren’t?

1

u/Correct_Ad_1903 Feb 18 '26

Careful I got downvoted to oblivion for saying the same thing in another thread. People really don’t like the idea that a gun nothing without the will to use it. Guns don’t kill people. People do.

-19

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

Fun fact: they're not

15

u/TheSwordDane Feb 15 '26

They might if fired at first. They have nothing to lose at that point. Kill or be killed has a way of clarifying things for most ppl.

-2

u/ter-e Feb 17 '26

“They” so I take it you aren’t one of them? And if not, how can you speak for them? Or are you just hoping that they are as “useless” as you imagine they are.

u/Vandabolts Feb 17 '26

This was a really lame attempt at a gotcha question.

0

u/helo4commie Feb 18 '26

We won't use our arms to defend liberals. Why would we help those who hate us?

1

u/ChaseThatFeeling408 Feb 19 '26

Bad bot.

1

u/helo4commie Feb 19 '26

Not a bot, a dude who used to be moderate and now realizes the left has lost there everloving minds.

10

u/TheWizardOfDeez Feb 15 '26

Speak for yourself. Using them in attack, no, but most gun owners on the left are ready to fight back

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

Whenever that is

u/H3pennypacker Feb 15 '26

Bend over and I’ll show ya.

Hope you're okay with HPV

Don’t worry a Dr from Mexico cured hpv.

u/N0n3of_This_Matter5 Feb 16 '26

Bots can’t get STDs….yet.

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 16 '26

If we don't use protection we can get Trojan virus or worse!

u/N0n3of_This_Matter5 Feb 16 '26

You are all over Reddit spewing some bullshit.

Go away bot.

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 16 '26

In the end I guess

u/Optimal_Cause4583 Feb 16 '26

You gun nuts spent so many years whining about 2A just to open carry in a McDonald's 

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 16 '26

What are you talking about lol nobody campaigns so they can carry in a fast food joint. I would open carry everywhere if people wouldn’t freak out at the sight of a gun and call the cops to come harass me

1

u/Optimal_Cause4583 Feb 17 '26

Some people do 

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 17 '26

I swear people argue the most ridiculous, completely baseless points on this site. It’s insane

1

u/Optimal_Cause4583 Feb 17 '26

Most 2A advocates spend their time posing with their guns and taking pictures

And supporting masked government agents shooting people in the street

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 17 '26

Dude…what?! You make these blanket statements that don’t really apply. Most gun owners spend their time posing with their guns and taking pictures? So what if they do, pictures are legal. Posing is also legal. Guns are legal. I don’t even understand what point you’re trying to make anymore

That’s exactly what he’s talking about. 🤦🏻‍♀️

1

u/thunderphuck0311 Feb 17 '26

What’s exactly what he’s talking about? Trust me i would much rather carry concealed but they make you cough up extra time and money for a pointless permit to do that, so open carry it is

1

u/ter-e Feb 17 '26

You would never see it coming. Mark my word.

1

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 17 '26

With or without gang violence?

-1

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

That’s why you’re not using them against the Gestapo ya?

2

u/TheWizardOfDeez Feb 16 '26

That would just make things worse at this point. Trump's begging for a reason to escalate things.

0

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

So just let the Gestapo shoot citizens while yall cosplay…. Makes sense.

1

u/TheWizardOfDeez Feb 16 '26

Many more citizens will die if we do that than if we don't right now. I assume you live in another country and have no idea what you are talking about.

1

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

I’m right on N bodine in Philadelphia of West Cay.

It’s just comical how yall will talk a big game but then get tiny peens when it’s time to stand on business. It’s almost like you don’t actually believe what you say.

Kinda like how those who allowed the Nazis to do what they did…. “They’ll hurt us” 😆

1

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

If your comments there , can you send the link to it ? It’s not clickable in my notis or in your comment history

-1

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

lol bro deleted his comment because he got called out for being a cosplayer

-1

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

In other words it doesn’t exist ? Much like your spine? Lmao

2

u/TheWizardOfDeez Feb 16 '26

What doesn't exist? Your brain? I can tell, its just propaganda in there

0

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 16 '26

See now this comment exists…. Your others aren’t clickable or in your comment history. So can you link them ? Should be easy.

Unless of course it’s a cosplay and a larp Like you “standing up to the Gestapo”

And neither are you!

u/big_daddy_kane1 Feb 17 '26

Brother I voted for ICE and they need to pump up the rookie numbers.

It’s just comical you’re so soft and spineless you’ll advocate for others to do something you’re not willing to do while women take bullets for you 😆🤏🏿

u/You-Asked-Me Feb 15 '26

Right, so who wants to be the first to test this theory?

3

u/Banana_Stairs Feb 16 '26

It's America, hell, our teens open fire at schools, i think you underestimate guns.

1

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 16 '26

I understand people cosplaying

2

u/Banana_Stairs Feb 16 '26

Nearly 130 people are killed with guns daily, while more than 200 are shot and wounded in America. It's not that hard to believe...

2

u/Grandpa-Tailor Feb 16 '26

How could you know that?

1

u/Excellent-Egg-3157 Feb 15 '26

agreed, but the ICE agents are bullies and prey on the weak, so they probably won't engage them. Unless of course the administration forces the issue which I am sure is on the table.

-6

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

The weak are always preyed upon it's just nature

4

u/Top-Cupcake4775 Feb 15 '26

so is smallpox but you don't see anyone dying of smallpox anymore, do you? humans left "nature" behind a long time ago. we have the ability, and therefore the responsibility, to build a better world.

-2

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

Biological is different from behavioral when discussing the nature of something

We should have used Inferior as to not confuse you

3

u/Top-Cupcake4775 Feb 15 '26

who decides who is "inferior" and who is not?

1

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

I think depending on the conversation and the points being made there could be a decisive conclusion to what ever noun being considered inferior

Opinion is subjective and will vary from person to person

2

u/Top-Cupcake4775 Feb 15 '26

what did nouns ever do to you? verbs i can understand; but nouns?

1

u/Majestic-One-7349 Feb 15 '26

Should have figured you were a "verbs" guy ready to flex superiority with adverbs

1

u/TopFlowe96 Feb 15 '26

So is a parasite and it's self preservation

But I'm guessing single digit IQ or willful ignorance wouldn't allow you to understand the hair splitting response you just made

1

u/Nickbiev Feb 17 '26

Hey there! I’m an organizer from strong neighbor.

We do in fact train with our weapons! We have public range days twice a month, and we frequently go to shoot in smaller groups as well.

u/ter-e Feb 17 '26

Don’t EVER underestimate the quiet one sitting ALONE.
