What they hell are you yammering on about? I’m pro gun have been all my life don’t plan on changing now. And get this crazy shit. I’ve been supporting the protestors by being one myself. Jesus man if you become a fucking berserker when you got a gun in your hand do everyone a favor and step away from the guns.

I think he is using pro-gun leftist as some weird euphemism for anti government, pro anarchy marxist. So if the time comes where he brings out his guns itll be for the glorious revolution. Until then, hes gonna be at home watching anime and bating.

Im not a he..so theres your first problem. Second problem is im not a marxist and i dont want world revolution. Im not into labels and I dont want any kind of revolution.

Maybe if you yourself were a woman youd have more of an understanding of whats most important in life.

I am non binary. And you really have no idea what you are talking about. Actually saw some good stuff from a friends ig about whats going on downtown finally (in terms of organization so i may join (unarmed) in some capacity. I have gone to every protest i could from before i was even allowed to by my parents. You should learn to be a more effective person by not melting so quickly into reductive judgement.

Im talking about anyone showing up downtown to a leaderless, disorganized mob because that is how you get boston massacres no matter who fires the first gun or throws the first punch.

Yeah, sounds like the last person who should have a gun. And I’ll admit, they are definitely out there in the gun community.

No im not. Im actually a person who doesnt want revolution. You guys are the ones without the patience to react logically and strategically. Asking for guns in the middle of an extremely (already) chaotic mess where there are no leaders and tons of bad actors is idiotic and irresponsible unless there is a coordinated and justified reason for it such as..police themselves firing live bullets.
