  • Considering the 2nd amendment has already been trampled, protesters can no longer reasonably open or concealed carry firearms. I know I wouldn’t want to be unarmed anywhere near an ICE agent but showing up with a rifle on my back would be illegal, brandishing, and I’d be instakilled before I got anywhere near a protest. Not much good to anyone.

    Thanks to the racists that shut down the black Panthers and neutered the 2nd amendment, it is exceptionally difficult to defend yourself while peacefully assembling.

    In other words, yes, the upper panel is correct, the 2nd amendment should be upheld and we should be able to bear arms in these protests. The lower panel is also correct in that it has not been upheld and we are now not able to defend ourselves as effectively against tyranny.















  • why do people assume that I’m talking about them when I reply to their message implying that I’m talking about them

    The closest thing to a solution now is secession and that basically means civil war. It’s not giving up to recognize that the American people have already lost, immensely.

    It’s also pretty reductionist to frame this as a voter apathy issue. “Well if people cared more…” No. When we’re talking about the USA we’re talking systemic failures of our systems. Mandatory voting has been around for centuries at this point, any party could have stood behind that but didn’t. For as long as most of us have been alive the US system has been disenfranchising and blocking voters. Don’t tell me it’s apathy that got trump elected the second time. It’s a system that failed.
