Time for all those 2A, Castle Doctrine, "tally-ho lads!" types to start defending their homes, right?

........right?

[-] shittydwarf@piefed.social 14 points 4 months ago

The tyranny that they were always talking about has finally arrived so surely any moment now

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 months ago

Except all those castle doctrine types are the ones in the ICE gear.

[-] nondescripthandle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 4 months ago

For this particular instance can I interest you in some Rolf?

[-] Blackfeathr@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

I can hear this image

Just as the Founding Fathers intended.

Sitting on Lemmy waiting for some 338LM brass to dry in the oven then I'm back to the press to fill and seat everything. Have been putting off loading for my precision rig but recent events have introduced some new urgency to that task.

[-] AnchoriteMagus@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

I hear ya. All of a sudden projects that have been "some day" turned into "right the hell now".

[-] tidderuuf@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I can't, my state has made it nearly impossible for the average citizen to purchase a firearm and there's now a poll tax I mean racist tax I mean background check fee... Because there's already a federal background check but now my state patrol does the exact same background check using the exact same database but it takes them weeks longer to process and I still have to pay for it. Anyways probably easier for some fascist to roll in and just take my stuff the way the founding fathers intended.

Oh and anything with a threaded barrel is banned too so I hope my family is prepared to go deaf if I ever get around to purchasing that firearm.

Let me introduce you to black powder. Protecting your rights since we kicked it all off on April 19, 1775.

Plus, nowadays you can get a drop-in conversion cylinder to go from powder to modern cartridges without an FFL.

It's in their interest to make exercising your rights difficult. Don't let them.

[-] ChunkMcHorkle@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago

Actually, yes.

I am completely against violent protests. Take a look at my post history; it's real. Letting protests turn violent is a great way to give even more power to the fascists.

But jesus fucking christ, if they're fool enough to take their goddamn goon show on the road and start banging on doors, whatever happens next is on them.

Or to put it another way, for fascists hell bent on racial purity that's one unironic way to chlorinate the piss out of the gene pool, I suppose.

[-] Janx@piefed.social 27 points 4 months ago

Renee Nicole Good was unarmed, and she was shot in the face by ICE. I bet a lot of people will figure that if they're going to murder us anyway...

When the government breaks the 4th to crack down on the 1st there's still the 2nd.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

The difference between ICE and the SS is lessening by the minute.

[-] Noite_Etion@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Other than the spelling what is the difference?

[-] lemmylump@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

When they knock down your front door how you going to come, with your hand on your head or the trigger of your gun?

Ooooooo ooo THE GUNS OF BRIXTON

-Joe Stummer

[-] Sh0eb0x@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Idk if Joe wrote it, but I think that's bassist Paul Simonon singing it.

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Practice appropriate trigger safety. Come with a readied weapon obviously, but keep that finger off the trigger until the split second before it's necessary.

[-] lemmylump@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

It's a song from The Clash

[-] mr_sunburn@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

I believe that "When they kick at your front door how you going to come? With your hands on your head or using proper trigger discipline with your gun?" doesn't fit the syllable count.

Door to door?

And their justification for any of this is...what?

[-] GuyFawkesV@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago

I think they gave up on justifications a while ago.

"Don't worry, Dave. All we wanna do is kill you."

[-] smeenz@lemmy.nz 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

People are missing the point that trump wants to provoke a violent response, so he can justify imposing martial law and cancelling the elections.

He's only going to keep pushing harder until he gets it.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Nazi America, folks.

If this nation had any sense we could abolish the Republican party and never allow conservatives to hold power ever again.

[-] blarth@thelemmy.club 1 points 4 months ago

We’re going to have people living in other people’s attics and basements for security soon, aren’t we?

What has this country come to? I don’t even recognize it anymore. Its collective values have separated so starkly from mine that I am not sure I can continue living here.

Gonna be lots of dead door busters, then. Home invasion is not something many people will put up with if they don't have to

[-] switcheroo@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Reminder for Nazi fascist scum: liberals own guns. A lot of libs are gun fanatics and they know how to use them a lot better.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Been shooting guns my whole life. Been left my whole life.

[-] discocactus@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Bring your level fours shitheads.

[-] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

Door to door murder. And people wonder why I'm stressed about the nazis invading my country.

[-] nonentity@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

A friendly welcome.

Friendly welcome

Time for a road trip and leaving the Butler to watch the house

image of a roomba. On top it's got a claymore anti-personnel mine hooked up to a webcam

[-] some_designer_dude@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

“I call him ‘General Boomba’”

[-] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

God dammit that was a good one. Lol.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
