    At some point, after a couple more people are straight up executed because an ICE agent is a little pussy and is “afraid” of an unarmed person…people need to step up and shoot back…or shoot first. Just saying

      They’ve shown they’ll murder you either way so it doesn’t seem like there is anything left to lose

      Do you remember those news from like a week back or so how Putin Trump has 2000 active duty soldiers on standby in, wherever it was, close by? It seems to me that this was the play all along- pardon the J6ers and the proud pigs, give them weapons, uniforms and face masks, send them in to cause mayhem on the streets (just like Hitlers SA), and the second someone defends themself they send in the army and declare martial law. No more elections.

      If this isn’t exactly how it will play out I am going to eat my own balls.

        You are right, but now what? Will Minnesotans allow the executions so Trump leaves the elections in peace? Trump will try to stop the elections anyway. I think Americans are already so deep into Trump’s shit that they can’t expect any laws to work properly at all. The rogue state that the USA has been for decades has finally come to occupy the USA territory.

          It is literally what the Nazis did. It’s not just similar to what they did, it’s literally exactly what they did.

            It’s been used by authoritarian regimes all over the world. From South America to the Philippines to Syria. Martial Law is a dictator classic.

      I will continue to post this every time someone insinuates that someone else should murder Trump/ICE Agents/ etc. Instead, please focus on protecting you and yours.

      In the US we have the Second Amendment. The fascists have been the ones screaming and yelling about the Second Amendment, but the truth is that all Americans have the right.

      Owning a gun isn’t enough. Driving to Cabela’s and picking up a vermin killing .22 is not enough. You should buy a proper rifle, a pistol, and a knife or baton. (Bonus points for a shotgun) Then you need to train with said rifle, pistol and knife/baton. Go to a range and shoot. Look for local self defense/hand to hand combat with a weapon classes and train.

      I am not advocating for violence…far from it. But I am advocating for knowledge because owning a weapon and not knowing how to use it is a recipe for disaster.

      PS: If you can afford it, buy suppressors. Especially for your rifles. Suppression for the common citizen isn’t about stealth like in the movies, it is about protecting your hearing. Guns are LOUD. Much louder than you expect. At the bare minimum, make sure you have quality active hearing protection.

        Unfortunately, about 3% of the US population is currently barred from legally owning a firearm, based on a quick overview of studies on how many people have a felony conviction in the US. This number is significantly higher for African Americans and other races.

      If Governors do not wield their State’s National Guard and police forces to defend citizens from ICE terrorism, people’s anger will only grow and more senseless killing will be had.

      Tim Walz needs to buckle the fuck up and protect Minnesotans.
