Why?

  1. we blow up tons of shit anyway

  2. we need to show fascists they don’t own the monopoly on violence

  3. Look up operation blazing sword- LGBTQ and BIPOC folks need to arm themselves these days. It doesn’t necessarily mean owning a firearm in your home, but having knowledge of firearms and a local place to organize your community to defend against y’all-qaeda sounds like an okay idea nowadays

  4. I fired a pistol for the first time two days ago and honestly it was fun

    I wish you luck but I think you’ll unfortunately find that most of the people willing to join a militia are exactly the type of people you don’t want in your militia. Dumb liabilities at best and violent psychos at worst.

          I guess I wish we had a Swiss model of gun ownership. Everyone is mandated to have a firearm, but they are all kept in local safehouses. That said the purpose for that is to keep them neutral in war rather than have a force that can fight their own government.

          I would like to see a balance of not crazy gun nuts owning guns, and especially when I get worried about a civil war, I would like to know when the proud boys march into my community to shoot us that we could shoot back.

          At some point, picket signs just don’t match an AR-15.
