        And organize, they can and do pick out people who are alone, as they are cowards. If there are 10 of you walking, armed, they are less likely to fuck around

        The first people that die in a war are typically women and children. Usually because the competing militaries don’t issue them guns.

      This is the correct approch. I can’t stress this enough, when it costs ICE their lives, and the headlines are “12 citizen killed by ICE” then people will stop sitting on their hands like this is nothing. Don’t let them put you in a ghetto, don’t let them put you in a labor camp or a death camp, CALL THEIR HAND EVERY TIME, If you let them take you, you’re dead anyway.

      I would go absolutely feral. Ripping their throats out with my teeth and snapping any small bone I can grab.

      This goes for anyone being kidnapped in my general vicinity as well. If I see that shit, it turns out that that is a good day to die. I will do it with glee.

      Watch me laugh with their blood running down my face.

        Do it. Force the issue. Hang in the immigrant communities. Meet the people. Teach them what you would do, help them arm themselves and prepare. Then fight with everything you have. They’re not coming for you specifically just yet, but it’s only a matter of time.

      Yup.

      I am anti-gun and always have been and still believe a nation with more guns is going to have more death and generally be less safe.

      But it is absolutely time to arm yourself.

      Cops dragged my buddy out of his car and shot him for having his legally owned pistol. How in the fuck are we supposed to resist ICE with guns?

        Your friend was obeying the law, and trying to obey the law. When you aren’t trying to comply and you are fighting for you life, it’s a very different set of actions. No one’s waiting to get dragged out.

        Right wing ideologies are based on fear, they’re all cowards deep down.

        If enough of them die kicking in doors they’ll stop.

        They have proven that if you comply at best, you will be denied rights, beaten, in a labor or death camp, and likely dead.

      i agree with you but if you’re willing to die at that point, why wouldn’t you just take action now to stop that scenario from happening? if we wait till the wolf is at our door, we’ve given the wolf the advantage of initiative. you don’t win wars by waiting for the enemy to strike first.

          yep. american individualism is a denial of the very basics of humanity: we are social creatures. we got to the top of the food chain through cooperation, not by being the most alpha of lone wolves.

        The CIA has a wonderful piece of training that’s publicly available online called ‘‘simple sabotage’’ I’d highly recommend reading it. Also Revolutionary Suicide by Huey P. Newton. Totally unrelated, a lot of campers really like to use a home made fire starter that’s waterproof, there’s a lot of good recipes usually petrol products and shipping materials, very simple. also I’m in a Drone building club at school, it’s not related to this, but it’s a lot of fun.

        “much harder to buy a gun.”

        Buddy I won one at a fucking raffle no questions asked.

          That’s not legal in any state.

          I used to run gun raffles, and the way they actually worked is the organization doing the raffle would partner with an FFL, and what they actually won was a gift card redeemable for the exact value of the gun. That gift card would be used for the winner to purchase a firearm, including a NICS check.

        If you find it hard to purchase a gun in the US then I have to marvel at the fact that you manage to successfully navigate a belt buckle. My state doesn’t even require concealed carry permits anymore. I can just go grab a gun, ammo, and walk around strapped with it hidden under my shirt.

        It’s wild west out here dude where have you been?

            Yes, a BG and a waiting period. That’s all. Also you’re always 2-4 hours from NV where you don’t have to wait and if you buy 3rd party in NV, your in Ghost Town, baby!

        Pretty easy to get a gun unless you’re a felon.

        Stop spreading misinformation.

        We only need the guns because dumbfuck conservatives ushered in American fascism.

          3rd pary sales don’t require any information exchange. Meet some one in Cabella’s looking at a new hunting rifle they want? Maybe they’ll sell you a gun at their place for the price of a new rifle. It’s the wild west man. If they cared there wouldn’t be a loop hole you can drive a dump trunk dragging 100 rusty bikes through.

        There isn’t a single state in which the barrier to owning a gun is more difficult than a background check and a waiting period. I’d recommend a glock 9 for reliably and performance. Good luck, and good hunting.

        Getting a gun is as easy as going to fucking Walmart and having them order you something from the warehouse you have to pickup a week later.
