      Armed minorites are harder to oppress.

      Didn’t the gun laws in California happen specifically after black Panthers open carried near a town hall?

      Could be misremembering

        Ya, and this is where they really started to fix the “armed minorities harder to oppress” bug…by making sure the gun possession of POC happened within their constraints. IE gang violence, drug war, commodity fetishism, rugged individualism all to replace grass roots organization and useful gun ownership. YN with the never ending need for for new NIKES, armed with the strap and slinging rock for cash is preferable to armed class conscious community organizers.

            Anti-liberal leftists (hereforafter referred to as “leftists” with air quotes) can suck my dick. They are one of the reasons we have the fascist in office.

            So I guess they did hurt me. They hurt all of us. And are laughing in accelerationist glee about it. Fuck “leftists”.

              Are you having a stroke, or is this one of those ““they are responsible for everything bad”” type of thing, where “they” is whoever you happen to want to send to Poland?

              Or do you really believe that every single person who sat this election out is a leftist? It’s difficult to tell whether you’re hateful or just very dumb.

                Proceeds to bitch about Democrats and convince everyone they can that Democrats are just as bad if not worse than Republicans in a year when we’re voting between allowing a fascist in power or a Democrat woman. Doesn’t vote and convinces others to not vote.

        3d printer and some pipe.

        If the guy with the splatoon gun can kill the Japanese president, Americans can make a gun at home for sure.

          I can confirm you can make a shotgun pretty easily with a trip to the hardware store and as long as you properly rust proof it, it’ll last quite some time. Especially if you have a way to purchase thicker than normal wall piping. If you don’t have a drill press and welder already, it’ll be a little expensive.

          Partially 3d printed aemi-auto is slightly harder, but again can confirm quite reliable if done right, and accurate as fuck if you properly rifle the barrel.

      Democrats really love to take guns from people.

      Democratic jurisdictions are usually under may issue laws, meaning, the police can use descretion to deny you a permit, and a permit is required in order to carry a gun.

      The. Fucking. Cops. Have the authority to fucking deny you the ability to defend yourself.

      Like… what?

      Sure, lets let those pigs trample over your constitutional rights. Can we primary all those anti-gun dems?

      Edit: So the Supreme Court struck down the most of the “May Issue” laws in 2022. Now its mostly “Shall Issue”. Ironically, the liberal judges wanted to uphold those laws, while the right wing dipshits judges ruled to struck it down. Broken Clock, twice a day, you know.
