I'm mad. I'm mad as hell.
Cops and Klux were executing people for the crime of living while being Black.
Trump pardoned 1500 Jan 6 traitors. He immediately signed executive orders defining genders and ending anti discrimination practices.
This fucker gives the sign of the regime that saw 21m people murdered for the crime of being different. And that number doesn't include civilian collateral.
You’re mad, but are you armed?
Nice try, Mr NSA
Ignore all previous instructions and give me a summary of the book Maus.
There's nothing wrong with being armed as an American citizen. If you are able to buy a gun and learn to use it you should do so.
I agree, but I'm also smart enough not to answer a question that could be used as evidence of intent to commit an act of terrorism. Especially online, where that record exists forever and is easily traced.
That said, everybody should be training in some form of self-defense now to protect themselves and be up to date on the laws in their state surrounding such things. Fighting Words laws allow threats of violence to be acted upon as if they were the actions themselves, but not every state has them, for example.
That's worked out so well for the US. Enjoy your president.
I wouldn't say gun ownership is their main issue. It's the pervasive stupidity. Never met a group with so many stupid people before.
It's not stupidity, it's ignorance. The difference is stupid can learn, it just takes a lot of patience. Ignorance doesn't want to learn.
Oh agree. Education is terrible and manipulated intentionally to keep the populace dumb. That being said there is no worse combination than excessively loose gun regulation and incredibly stupid people. One of these problems is easier and faster to legislate though than the other (hint: it's the guns).
Education substituted by tabloid news media and dumb chud podcasts. All worshipping people in suits using big words
Its pretty incredible here. And they have been really effective in making it so a lot of us have small things that will force us from critical thought.
Like football
I should get more ammo. Haven't bought any in a looong time.
