    All the second amendment freaks are suddenly awfully silent. Wasn’t this the exact scenario the 2A was intended for? To fight against wannabe kings?

      The second amendment freaks never wanted to topple an oppressive government, they wanted to shoot their neighbors that they don’t like. All that talk was just cover for “I’m a giant pussy with no social skills who can’t be trusted to be part of the social contract.”

      Why do you think The Walking Dead was so popular? They get to pretend all their neighbors are “zombies” that they have every right to kill because they consider them (us) as unthinking monsters. It’s always projection.

      Just in case doesn’t mean I actually wanted to use them, I’ve got a transition to finish, I’m trying to fucking make it to Canada if I gotta.

      I just think dying in a gun fight sounds better than going to a camp is all.

        Can we start accepting trans people as refugees, yet? It’s Super dangerous for some people to just be alive in America right now, and that smells like a refugee situation to me.
