Considering the avg republican has to ride the diabetes scooters at Walmart I think the 2nd civil war will be a goddamn turkey shoot.
Let's find out, Trumptards!
I'm not a Trumper and I know for a fact they not only have more gun owners in Republican voting areas, they also train with them more because it's not as stigmatized. My point is that the Democrat areas will 100% lose any fight since we've been told for over two decades that guns are bad
They have louder gun owners. My friends and I don't advertise our arsenals, and we practice plenty. My carry is hidden from everyone around me, because many people are uncomfortable around guns, and I don't want to make anyone have to think about it. I am not unique, and I'm in a progressive area.
I am aware of the gun ownership of one liberal person whom I know personally. I only found out because when they gave me a tour of their house, I noticed a small decorative item in their closet and asked about it. The item itself was a gift from their family member.
Every Republican I know who owns a gun, OWNS SEVERAL GUNS VERY LOUDLY AND PROUDLY GOD BLESS AMERICA.
People have asked, and I'll tell them what I've got if they're interested, but I'm not proclaiming it by any means. Most don't know that I have made several different firearms and custom attachments. My core group is outwardly some of the most peaceful people you'll meet, self aware, kind, pro mental health, pro acceptance of any marginalized group, but also understanding of the importance of defending ourselves from the encroaching wave of modern fascism.
I promise you are in the minority of blue voting gun owners, and they outnumber you significantly to the point that it becomes trivial for them to oppress you (i.e. cops, military, and rural people mostly vote conservative and most own guns, and so they maintain the monopoly on violence).
We literally will never stand a chance if push came to shove.
Why do you think gun ownership will be the deciding factor in an all out war? Seems trivial to me. There are more guns then there are people to shoot them.
Do you think Republicans are just going to go door to door genociding people?
Do you think the US military will play zero role?
You're fucking insane.
Do you not think arms dealers won't be champing at the bit to deal to both sides?
I can't even do this..
In your mind you must think the GOP is going to decend on a city populous and kill civilians by the millions with their ar-15s.
This is just not how war's are fought.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. We've had to tell these dipshits at least twice in my lifetime not to drink bleach in order to cure diseases.
It takes a lot more that having guns and knowing how to shoot them in order to win a war. They lack the logistics, medical and technical skills required to effectively wage a war. Every time one of these dumbfucks tries to defeat "bullet-proof" glass with a nail gun, it really shows how fucking stupid they are.
Vietcong had literally less and still defeated a major super power.
None of that matters. Whichever side has the military is the side that will win.
But but but the second amendment is so that we the people can keep the government honest
The second amendment should be used for to keep cops honest. After all ya aint gonna randomly kill someone if the folks around you decide to return the favor.
That didn't work out so well for Philando Castile or Breonna Taylor.
Im talking more along the lines of finding out where the cop lives and saying hello, if ya get what im sayin.
Democrats are not a homogeneous group. And they don't have a monopoly on loathing Trump.
