Too bad everyone that actually gives a damn about that option is on red team, and blue team thinks the 2nd amendment is for killing children and nothing else.

Thank you for acknowledging the quiet leftists who take responsibility for ourselves. I've been really upset with the crisis-mining nonstop drama panic rhetoric and dis-education about firearms from the Democratic party and their sockpuppet gun-panic action groups.

(While they openly perpetuate systematic issues that increase likelihood of gun violence, of course.)

Now firearms ownership is disproportionately in the hands of conspiracy nuts and goose-stepping good-ol-boys, while many liberals are dogmatically hoplophobic and ignorant about them.

Reminder that the Socialist Rifle Association is a thing.

Educate your friends, get them out to the range, and by Almighty God keep close social ties on each other's mental health.

I want to solve our problems with words and witty reparté, but all those safeguards are quickly breaking down and we're seeing an increasing threat of mobilizing angry everyday-sadists looking to hurt people, and stern memorandums aren't gonna cut it.
