I bet ol JD slops a mean hog. Jus lookit that eyeliner. I bet he smells like my mommas purse

If the regime rises to power, commits atrocities, and you’re still an agent when it’s over, sure.

If you get in early, be part of the resistance, and help keep the atrocities from happening, then no.

Do it. Crime is legal now.

Everyone apply for ICE!

Either the system gets so bogged down they can’t recruit anyone, or we end up outnumbering them. Either way, we resist them.

To be fair, gun violence in the US has been declining year-over-year for over half a decade now.

The number of “mass shootings” continues to rise because the definition of “mass shooting” has been steadily expanded such that it now includes self-defense shootings, gang-on-gang shootings, officer-involved shootings, shootings that happen even though no crime has occurred, and many other events that don’t typically come to mind when one hears the term “mass shooting”.

Not so. According to the Federal Firearms Act (FFA), even as a private seller, you’re still responsible for confirming the person you’re selling to is legally eligible to own what you’re selling them. In fact, there’s even a number you can call to have the same background check done they do at gun stores, it just takes a lot longer to go through the process.

If that person is a felon, and if they get caught with that gun and if they trace it back to you, you’ll be investigated for illegally selling guns to felons.

Some states don’t even allow you to privately sell firearms; you’re required to pay an FFL license holder to do the transfer or use the state police as an intermediary to transfer possession.

Of course not. Where do you apply for your license to exercise your first ammendment rights?

It depends on your definition of “gun nut”. If you’re referring to someone who enjoys the historical significance of firearms, are intrigued by the engineering involved, and/or maybe goes to the range a few times a year to target shoot for fun, then I’d say it’s likely.

If you’re referring to someone who fetishizes guns and makes it a core component of their personality, I’d say most likely not, unless you’re the type of person who already does that with other things.

Geico fired R. Lee Ermey because he gave a speech claiming Obama was bankrupting the country on purpose so he could bring socialism to the US. Just saying.

Every single Ford employee needs to call Trump a pedophile protector now. They can’t fire everyone.

Yes. Unless you can prove a lack of workplace safety or demonstrate that they significantly altered the nature of your position. You can’t make an accountant scrub toilets, for example.

Exactly, this is their career. And in the most critical moment of their career, they showed us what they’re willing to do, how far they’re willing to go on our behalf, to preserve our of life that places political power in the hands of democratically-elected officials, and not government-appointed loyalists.

At the end of the regime, sure. In these early phases, it’s acceptable to remain in power in order to loudly and publicly resist. Otherwise, their revolution will succeed simply because no resistance was offered.

Criminal charges is the compromise we’re offering. If they won’t agree to that, if those are the rules they wanna play by, there’s no reason not to shoot ICE agents on sight.

Every single democratic senator needs to make a similar video. They can’t investigate all of them. The Rs started this takeover by uniting. If the Ds won’t do the same, we’ve already lost.

If we keep worrying about keeping political donors happy, we’ll never reform anything; that’s the exact opposite of what they want and will do everything to stop it.

Once he gets in office it’ll be, “we need something to campaign on next election” every time reform comes up. On his final term, he’ll say, “if the party is going to earn votes for my successor, I need to play ball this term,” then the cycle will repeat itself.

The controlled opposition party won’t meaningfully reform the corporatism that got us in this mess? No fucking shit.

There are a fair number of activities that fall under the umbrella of “non-violent protest” that involve a good bit more than just holding signs and writing letters.

You can deny them food, water, sleep, or comfort, you can follow them and record their activities, you can sabotage their vehicles (since they use rentals, it’s only destruction of private property, not government property) anything at all that can disrupt their activities and make life more difficult for them, short of assaulting them, is non-violent protest.

Most American citizens are overwhelmingly united on many issues.

Unfortunately, most American politicians are overwhelmingly united on NOT giving us what we want.

We tried that when Biden was in office and all these new body cam laws were passed. So many cops threatened to quit, politicians backed down and let police unions retain control of the cameras and recordings.
