Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

My new shotgun and rifle arrive in 2-3 weeks...can't come soon enough.
And whatchagon do with it, eh?
I'll tell you what: jack shit. Just like all the other gun-toting posers in America.
They are not gonna change anything, but as things are, it's not a bad thing to have at home. You're still gonna die, but you can take a nazi with you. And that's where america is right now.
I'm obviously not going to answer on a traceable, public forum.
You do you.
You say you won't tell what you're gonna do with your guns on a public forum, yet you feel the need to mention that you bought guns on said public forums...
Po-ser.
It's all show. If ICE shows up at your door, you'll say "Yes Sir!" and you'll scream "No! I'm a US citizen!" as they drag you away to a DHS-sanctioned concentration camp.
You'll do exactly nothing with your guns, because you know as well as I do that the ICE goons will pump you so full of bullets if you do that there will be more holes than flesh left on you.
If you had anything serious in mind, you would have kept your gun purchase hush-hush.
Maybe instead of bitching you should make suggestions to solve the problem.

Pay your first dues with a vanilla card purchased w/ cash a couple of towns over, use at least 30-90 days after purchase so the CCTV footage will be overwritten.
Also use tor FFS, or at least a good VPN like mullvad or ivp, and on a trustable machine (IE: open source OS, preferably QubesOS on ME disabled hardware)
Also if you need a good throwaway email both tutanota and cock.li work but keep in mind cock.li is run by chuds so its best used as a disposable account.
You can truely speak your mind if your socials are never accessed from your home IP and you don't tie any other accounts to them, and what you say isn't too identifiable.
