While a ton of people have guns, I'm thinking most of the people online who talked so big about using them were bots or astroturfing.

No individual is going to hold them accountable. We need organization for that.

If unidentified, masked agents show up on my property in an aggressive manner, I am absolutely opening fire and burying their bodies in the acreage of forests out back.

It won't end well for me, but we outnumber them. If even every 100th person took out at least one of them, they'd cease to exist pretty quickly.

There would be other ramifications, but we're getting there no matter what anyway.

The ammosexuals are loving the fact that ICE is treading all over people. It's their team doing the violating of rights.

It's a bit sad seeing Americans completely unable to act without someone telling them what to do honestly.

Individuals absolutely held powerful figures accountable throughout history, but I agree that won't happen in the US

EU can sell it's 10 year bonds to cripple this administration. It'll cripple the EU economy too, so it won't happen and you don't support that. It's totally going to be a few murican citizens that bring this admin to it's knees. So sick of this narrative when EU acts like the democratic party in the US.. all talk while making money hand-over-fist
