Everybody needs to arm themselves and learn how to shoot. Now. While it’s still possible to. If they’re not gonna follow the Constitution, then you’re no longer guaranteed your day in court to seek justice, so there’s no longer any reason to “come quietly”. If your sentence is to be death anyway, then violent resistance may be the only route to deter cops from continuing to violate their oath and kidnapping/murdering other innocents. Do it for them.
Most cops are like black bears. They’ll rush you and try to intimidate you into doing what they want, but if you make it clear that they’re gonna get hurt or killed if they try, they’ll tuck tail and run. They’re cowards cosplaying as tough guys. Make them ask themselves whether this is worth maybe not getting home to their families over. Give them nightmares. Terrorism is attacking them where they peacefully are; I’m just saying to terrorize from within your own home to scare them off. They might come back with SWAT, but make them burn those resources all the same. They don’t have infinite equipment and enforcers, and they’ll ration it all well before getting low. They’ll have riots to quell, so they can’t put too many resources into every little kidnapping.
As John Lewis said, “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and redeem the soul of America.”
Birth-2024: fuck guns (outside a skeet shoot range)
2025: fuck how much sense you’re making
I hate it. Zero desire to be the owner of something that can get me sent to jail so easily. Ridiculous how calculuses are changing.
It’s not that I can imagine using a weapon against any living being but I can imagine headlines that may scare me even more without access to something defensive
Off to not buy anything, wish me luck
Damnit
Nah man. Guns ain’t it. What we NEED to be doing right now is building community. Find your neighbors who you can trust. Know which ones have tools, which ones have skills, who’s got the space for gardens, who knows about limited resource survival.
In times of crisis and uncertainty, strengthening the fabric of community is what will truly endure. The only thing guns are effective at is further divide and seclusion. They keep you in a state of fear. They give you false security because you can “just kill the guy you don’t trust”; it encourages the exact opposite of trust building.
The power of numbers will get you a lot further than the power of firearms (the ones most folks can get their hands on, anyway).
They all have guns, they WILL use them against you as soon as Trump gives them the ok to do so.
It’s instantly to think you can defend yourself from armed Nazis with community outreach and peaceful protests.
If they all have guns then what is the point of arming individually? 1 person with a gun verses several gov agents with guns, the 1 still doesn’t have a chance and shooting 1 or 2 of the people coming for you is t gonna change that. It’s not like the government is gonna back off “Oh shit the liberals got guns now, better stop pushing them.”
Do both. An armed community can defend itself. Protect your neighbors. Fascists will be less likely to use their guns on you if your community has guns to fire back with. Build your community and then be able to defend it.
