    Yes, very nice, all true. Be prepared to die shooting back, because no other fascist regime has ever been beaten any way outside of violence.

    If the midterms shake things up, I’ll eat my hat, but I’m not removing the armor-piercing rounds AR rounds anytime soon. Nor will I go out in public unarmed.

    And if anyone takes that for macho talk, let me tell you that I am scared shitless. If masked men come for my brown wife, it ends in my death. I am scared shitless. Sorry, thought that bared repeating.

      And that right there is called solidarity.

      Despite knowing the risks, despite the fear, you willingly take them upon yourself for the sake of those who do not get the choice to abdicate.

      And that’s exactly what we need more of.
