    Sure sounds like MAGA is trying to start a hot civil war.

    Going to be interesting when these people find out liberals are well armed and trained.

      It’s been funny when they’ve come up to me calling me the f word because I’m clearly queer and then I flash my piece at them and they get white in the face and back the fuck off me real quick

        Best be careful doing that. Flashing your gun is called brandishing and is illegal in most cases. You only show your gun when you are ready to fire it.

          lol nice. In all seriousness though, magats are always disgusting human beings who are very ugly inside and outside so they’d never get my dick

            Same. I’ve actually turned down closeted Republican men who didn’t hesitate to tell me that they essentially wanted me to be their stay at home girlfriend… As a grown ass man. Fuck all that.

            I support your right to put them 6feet under if they take it beyond verbal. But be careful, they can lie and get you targeted by the police. But I’m sure you’re ready to deal with that.

              Yeah for sure, I’m well versed with the laws so I can cover my ass in anything and always show way more restraint than I probably need to but yeah I prefer to keep it more on the dl that I’m carrying just to keep the pigs off me

          Yes I’ve been informed of the joke like five times now, I’m glad you can keep finding the humor in homophobes harassing me to the point that I have to show them the gun I have in my waistband since I have to be so fucking specific

          It’s brandishing if I’m instigating, which is not the case, but not so much when I’m being approached in a threatening manner being called slurs and I’m at a point of self defense

              Appreciate it, yeah I practice as much restraint as I can and never do anything outside a defensive standpoint. I already wasn’t a fan of having society come to this point where I felt I need one but unfortunately here we are but I think that has made me make sure to be responsible about it since my intentions are defensive

          People are getting kidnapped off the street. Use the strap on whoever tries to “arrest” you

      TBH, I seriously considered going strapped to the protest today. But I think I’d rather be a martyr than be the guy who shot someone at the protest even if it was to defend myself and my fellow protestors. At least that’s my thinking now while violence is unlikely in my town. If violence gets more prevalent and more expected, I might change my mind.

        That was my exact thinking this morning as well. My state allows concealed carry without a permit, so I could legally go with my carry… but I thought better of it. I didn’t expect any violence where I’m at, and it just seemed like it wasn’t worth the risk, being the cause of more harm than good. It kinda went against the spirit of this protest imo, so I left it at home

        Fuck it, I’m not that scared of dying that I gotta go strapped everywhere to feel safe. There’s a time and place for carrying, and the protest wasn’t one of them for me

        I respect the thought you put into it, and it sounds like the right choice, for the time being at least. Hopefully it stays that way…

      They’re preparing for dooms day… They’re fulfilling their own prophecy. I’m in a red area and I just saw an ad about getting a permit to concealed carry. Guns aren’t allowed here.

      It’s always the magas inciting violence. Rushing to violence is a side effect of ignorance.

      If you’re looking for a civil war, you’d be a fool to think the Magas aren’t better prepared for base violence.

        I personally man handled service members as a security guard in a military port town. I know where I stand. They can be as violent as possible. I can get even more crazier. And at that point. I break out the instant kill moves a dead SEAL friend taught me as my last resorts.

        What do you think they should do? Go to Minnesota and wack two Republicans to balance the legislature back out?
