Is this not the reason the second amendment exists? Regards An Australian Edit: I’m not advocating for violence. More so “a well regulated militia” which could be established by protesters or Democratic Governors for genuine self defence.

    Aiming a gun isn’t the same as brandishing or drawing it.

    Maybe your father should’ve spent less time teaching you about guns and more time helping you with your English homework.

    Glad I stopped trying to find logic in the average person.

    Thanks for reinforcing this.

      Aiming a gun isn’t the same as brandishing or drawing it.

      I think it’s a distinction without a difference when you’re in a situation where both parties have firearms (and one party has the backing of the state and a monopoly on violence).

      Please demonstrate this by aiming your gun at a cop and arguing that you weren’t brandishing with however many brand new holes.

        Are you fucking stupid?

        Aiming a gun at a cop is significantly worse than brandishing. Why would I try to argue what you’re saying unless I’m an idiot?

        Oh, wait a minute. Gotta tap the sign.

        Glad I stopped trying to find logic in the average person.

        Also ignored. I know I won’t be able to tolerate any more drivel from someone like you.
