I don’t want to be “that guy” but now is the time to stock up.
all of a sudden the party of “gun laws don’t stop criminals from getting guns!!!” wants to make gun laws to stop law abiding citizens from getting guns…
every single time i think to myself “that’s it–we’ve achieved the absolute maximum in stupidity. nothing can possibly be stupider than this,” i’m proven wrong the next day
that brings up another good point. “good guys” is obviously a subjective label that has no basis in reality. if you’re a “good guy,” with a gun, and you’re in a firefight with “bad guys,” then how do the “professionals” differentiate between the bad guys and good guys–when they finally show up? because if there’s shooting going on and the cops show up, and you’re standing there with a firearm, then whether or not they just go ahead and shoot you largely depends on how white you are. if you’re black, they might just shoot you regardless of whether you have a gun. this is the world we live in.
the answer to all of this is of course to get rid of the guns, which will obviously never happen. so in the current fascism i have to agree with other commenters and say BUY GUNS NOW, BEFORE YOU CAN’T
and for the love of fuck, get rid of the whole “i hate guns i’ll never touch a gun” bullshit. ESPECIALLY if you have people who need protecting from fascism.
they are rounding up and deporting american citizens, because they’re brown. why the fuck do you think you’re safe?

“The real problem is not enough guns…”
(Mass shootings at Army bases)
“good guys with guns”
(uvalde)
Remind me who those people were? Regular citizens wanted to go in and shoot the Uvalde shooter themselves. The “professionals” arrested them for it.
