Most gun owners i know hate the NRA. Anytime there was crazy rules changes from the ATF under Biden they were the last ones to send any kind of legal resistance but of course when an injunction was filed they tried to claim all the credit.
We have a so-called patriot group where I live. It’s just one more fascist group for the Klan to hide in. If Obama was doing the stuff Trump is doing, then they would speak up and be ready for war.
Translation: We didn't give a shit until the tariffs started affecting gun manufacturers' supply chains and they told us we better do something about it.
Right but that "tyrannical government" is oddly NOT trying to take the guns while the "civil representative democracy" was despite what over half the represented wanted.
12 members of Congress now support impeachment. If yours is not one, or isn’t yelling loud and often enough for you to know, call the Capitol switchboard (202) 224-3121 and ask why not. Or just go to their Congress website and email them every time you feel angry. It’s therapeutic!
That's cuz the NRA and it's cult were always full of shit about that. They just want white supremacy and guns to enforce those ideals. That's why they ain't rising up against wats happening. In fact, they're more likely to SIDE with this fascist regime.
there you go, the nra is about making money and influencing power. they do not care about our 2nd amendment rights which actually states "a well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed".
"and you to get one (gun) if you don't already." Speaking from military experience and still a marksman, your advice is fine, only if the owner is willing to be trained. Possession of any firearm is a serious responsibility, it cannot be taken lightly. Training must be ongoing. Isn't easy to kill!
The American Rifle Association, La Pierre is gone, current Pres. Bob Barr, current Exe. VP & CEO is Doug Hamlin. Find a few copies of recent issues of the magazine American Rifleman. It is incredible the lies, the propaganda, these people continue to feed their readers, their members. Report it!
The NRA lobby is the main conduit to which Putin pays his Republican pawns. They would never betray feckless leader. Putin has been paying Americans to shoot themselves for 20 years.
Yeah, let's talk about this for a minute. All the 2A "We the People" and "Don't tread on me" types. The tyrannical government most of you helped elect is here. Right now. Not just biting you in the ass, actually chewing on it. Welp, many are also Christians who literally voted for the antichrist.
Yah, if I recall, Christ himself said to his disciples something along the lines of "even now there are antichrists". I believe the sole one and only antichrist is part of Jesuit fiction that inspired the Left Behind book series and movies, but in actuality, its antichrists and they've been....
These 2A motherfuckers and their bullshit about tyranny. When it actually starts to happen they're nowhere to be seen. A good enough reason to get rid of the 2nd amendment.
Half the country thinks we need guns to fight tyranny, but can’t recognize tyranny,
The other half recognizes tyranny, but recognize we might need guns to fight it.
This is always what puzzles me about the US. "Well regulated militia" were supposed to be there to prevent tyrants, yet on J6, the only militia that turned up were there to SUPPORT the tyrant.
If you can't get that right you don't deserve to be allowed guns.
Trump will also encourage right wing extremists who are heavily armed and eager to use violence to enforce their loathsome unpopular beliefs since they have no chance in good faith debate. This is what the 2nd amendment is about. Community defense.
I live in California and I can get a “featureless” AR or one with a fixed mag-well or a system that breaks the upper and lower receiver. Obviously that’s not ideal, but it’s better than nothing.
Yes, liberals are the fastest growing group of American gun owners. Elected democrats & the minority of liberals trying to push stricter gun control like “assault weapon bans” are fucking deranged. I can’t comprehend that level of naivety.
I understand their frustration, but I do agree it’s naive. There are way too many gun-related deaths. We can do better, but I don’t want a solution that leaves me to the mercy of a racist authoritarian govt. That’s too dangerous for all of us.
Yes, the Republican solution is to offer thoughts and prayers. As you mentioned earlier, only the left provides real solutions. End the failed war on drugs and fund mental health services.
All semi automatic rifles in including the infamous AR-15 account for less than 1/10th of 1% that’s the most problematic gun control I can’t stand people saying “why do you need a ___” like they think the 2nd amendment is about hunting or personal self defense.
Exactly. It’s not like the founders really wanted to preserve the right to hunt or target practice. When Dems talk about banning weapons of war, I think no. That’s the point. I hope more and more Democrats change their tune on this.
When the right tries to avoid the convo by bringing up mental health it’s a distraction but who actually has solutions on mental health? The left. Universal healthcare. 63% of gun deaths are suicides. Also I don’t see the issue with having armed security at or next to a school.
2A advocates should propose alternatives to gun control. I think we should start with drug policy. Just as the end of prohibition lowered mob violence, the end of drug prohibition will curtail cartel and gang violence too (or so it stands to reason). We should also mandate more gun ed when you buy 1
a gun. People should have to watch a gruesome video so they understand the importance of keeping their firearms out of the hands of small children. We should also better fund mental health care. These are things we can do that lower gun-related deaths while preserving the right to self defense. 2
Liberals need to join leftists in embracing the 2nd amendment & rejecting new gun control. The 2nd amendment has nothing to do with hunting or self defense. It’s the final check & balance. The Trump regime showed checks balances & democracy are more of a gentleman’s agreement than enforceable rules.
Can I get a quick check-in from all the "WROL" Commandos that were supposed to rise up against tyranny? Maybe they're all having a Secret Meeting in their Mom's basement before they take action. But the suspension of Due Process was SUPPOSED to be a Big Deal to them, and they're awfully quiet.
Bullshit! This is false narrative. None of those arguments matter and this contrived exchange creates a bogus strawman to represent Democrats. The law doesn't care whether this guy is a devil or an angle, but whether or not we will follow the Rule of Law and support the Constitution. Due Process!
That's because NRA is happily comfortable with tyrants if they get to keep their guns and their violence and terrorism they bring to the rest of the population.
Never realizing that the second thing after judges that disappears in a dictatorship are the guns. you can’t very well. Tell people to do shit that’s crazy if they have guns.
getting strong "We called them tyrannical fascists why won't you rise up on our behalf because we're entitled cowards who believe everyone should do just what we say" energy from this post.
The NRA and that guy specifically got busted a few years ago after getting infiltrated by a Russian honeypot op. Of course, it worked and they paid no penalty.
Wait actually? There has to be a case somewhere in which a court said "no felons can't have guns" or did Congress just say that and everybody let it slide?
In a Fascist Country. The Establishment/DeepState can't allow Civilian population to have more Arms than the official Military. And the Republicans thought wrongly again. trumpie is Coming for the guns.

The 3.5 Military grade weapons per United States Citizen are evenly distributed across all demographics

Let’s not get too cocky here. They have been proven right, even if, like most Republicans, they only say the right thing. They rarely do it. And never if it requires sacrifice.
The NRA's main reason for existing is to scare dimwits into purchasing as many firearms, ammunition, and accessories as possible to further enrich their industry donors.
The White Christian supremacy/victim narratives, crimewave hysteria, and conspiracy theories are largely a means to an end.
That's because they spend too much time sucking them off. The NRA has actually been a huge issue for decades in the US. You could actually say they feed more on the chaos that come from violent or crazy gun owners and they do stopping them.
This is disturbing and disgusting. I am so sick of this backwards country we now live in thanks to Trump, heritage foundation, and the fact that we have so many citizens who obviously just can’t read.
They think they can let the Constitution burn… the one containing the 2nd amendment in exchange for… what? the pinky PROMISE of a 2nd amendment once his regime takes over? 🤦🏻♂️
Reminder, Reagan and the NRA were the ones to start Gun Control in California for the SOLE PURPOSE of disarming black people because of the Black Panthers posing a threat to the racist state.
Well. They did allow RUS operatives to infiltrate the organization with cold hard cash from #DaddyPooptin.
And aren't WLP & his top cronies still in court for their mishandling of NRA funds? Or did #DespotDon pardon them too?
Uhmn,…you know what LaPierre loved more than guns?
Wayne loved luxury!
You know, Brioni suits at $5,000 per, give me 4, kind o’ guy.
He suckered the gunnies something fierce. But he really gave America the absolute shaft!
He worked with Putin to flood our country with guns.
He’s true scum.
CECOT!
As a pro-gun person, it pisses me off quite a bit about how a lot of people say they'll stand up to a tyrannical government with their guns and never do it. Either do something or buck up and admit you only use your gun as a range toy.
The NRA and Reagan started gun control when blacks started to open carry in CA. Gun control people brought us Trump because they refused to exercise their civil liberty & Constitutional Right to secure a free state. Arm up, train up, clean & maintain your weapons. The Brown Shirts are coming.
Exactly what I've been wondering! Project 2025 does say they're coming for the guns so maybe we'll see them wake up then. Instead of "don't tread on me", it's "step all over me, maga!".
Fuck the NRA, but also how can any progressive watch institution after institution completely fail to prevent a fascist authoritarian take over and still be in favor of gun control?
The first real check on Trump came two days ago from SCOTUS, & it’s still not clear he’ll obey the courts.
You're free men. Nothing can take that from you but your own cowardice & failure to act.
It's your country, your Rights, & your freedom. It's your responsibility to protect it from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Revolution is the solution.

One hopes there's a lesson learned here.
They've been preparing for this Civil War, since the last Civil War.
And they won this Civil War at the voting booth, and are pulling the ladder up behind them for permanent rule.
Our side may need to make a HUGE shift in attitude or just surrender democracy.

"The second amendment applies to felons"
The only death should be to the second amendment
It was a mistake.
The founding fathers did not anticipate such enormous idiots having access to military weapons
They. were. SCHOLARS

Don't they hate it when that happens.
Nothing but disguised militia that's been on a search for a purpose and a cause. I guess they found it with school shootings and soulless politicians.
Who is financing them?
We should know.
The White Christian supremacy/victim narratives, crimewave hysteria, and conspiracy theories are largely a means to an end.

Is this the one for you?
Call Senators not just your own.
Join a protest.
Circle the block at a protest and lay on your horn.
Write to senators and committee members.
This is NOT normal.
