Yeah but in a country where guns are easier to buy than weed does this really matter?
If the argument was ‘the majority of hand to hand combat experts support the current president’ it’d be one thing but guns are point and click, you don’t need more than 2-6 months of training to be a legitimate threat.
Put guns in the lap of DSA furry and give that person basic training and it’s a wash between them and some potato ICE hired off the street
I mean sure its a wash if all ICE had was gund and cars. But they have better gear, better ammunition, encrypted radio comms civilians cannot use, and on demand backup. You can't train for a month or two at a shooting range and decide you're ready to fight the government.
Well, if you never learn to think NOT as an individual, sure, you'll get nowhere. You'll get nowhere alone. You'll wallow in your defeatism and despair indefinitely.
