      But do we out-gun them?

      I don’t think any civilians should be able to own firearms, but those MAGA cunts own them and you can be damn sure I’m not going to let them get one up on me.

      Everyone, buy a gun, train thoroughly, and don’t let these assholes bully us into letting them run the country.

        Unfortunately this is the way.

        This isn’t a game, the police will not protect us, that’s been shown. They’ll happily club an old lady to the ground and shoot you in the face with rubber bullets if you get near them. I tell my friends as often as I can now is the time. Get a gun or two (a long one a short one) and learn how to use them. Learn some basic medic training (you just need to know how to stablize somebody). Start networking with like-minded people around you. Learn how to rely on yourself and your community. The rightwing wants to install a theocracy in the U.S. in disregard of whatever personal freedoms you hold dear and they’re very close to accomplishing it.

        In Upstate NY? Most likely so. I grew up poor, in a family that relied on hunting for food. I’m significantly more financially secure now, but I’ve still two long barrels locked up with a fair amount of ammo.

        Just in case.
