edit: Look at this clown below calling me a cockroach, idiot. I’m done engaging here for the night. You clearly have nothing at risk, stay unarmed, my comment was not meant for you but for those who may be increasingly at risk over the next decade.
That is why I am not a cockroach using the death of human rights as a thinly veiled excuse to worship guns.
Don’t get me wrong, I would love to hear about an easy solution. But you can’t even answer how guns help against the military or even militarized police.

They sure as fuck help against Kyle Rednecks in F250s where I’m from, you’re the only one jerking off about the military. Now kindly fuck off, go waste someone elses time “comrade.”
And, as we (apparently not you…) saw during the Black Lives Matter protests and countless others: the cops and national guard side with Kyle Redneck every single time.
You clearly aren’t reading anything but to people who are less obsessed with finding a justification for the gun they build their identity around:
We are all scared. We all want to do something. And we all grew up with the idea that we are John McClane and are going to save the world one bullet at a time. And that isn’t true.
The reality is what we have already seen happen. Hamas struck at Israel (let’s simplify to that…). That, in turn, led to Israel using that as an excuse to commit genocide against the Palestinian people under the guise of attacking Hamas.
We already see trump trying to use that card against Mexico (and brown people) by wanting to list illegal immigrants as enemy combatants and cartels (which ARE fucking evil) as terrorist groups so that he can justify attacks on Mexican soil.
So what will that “armed support network” for trans people or black people do? it will result in trans folk being treated as terrorist groups. The same way that mosques were targeted in the wake of 9-11 and black people are STILL getting targeted under the guise of “gang violence”.
The reality is that there is no easy answer. And rather than pretend there is one (when in reality it is just a person who loves the 2nd amendment above all…), we need to actually think about what can be done to ACTUALLY make a difference. Whether that is attempting harm mitigation or doing stuff that maybe shouldn’t be talked about on a social network where complete randos have ridiculous amounts of data on you?
But buying guns? All you are doing is increasing the risk to you and your family (see: statistics on gun ownership) but also making the people you claim to care about an even bigger target. Because we already see every single school shooter who manages to get above the fold immediately listed as being insane because they are trans (even when they are just a bog standard republican fascist). Imagine what happens when the person who popped a bigot actually DOES have LGBTQ+ ties? And how “worth it” is that one fat white guy?

I and my loved ones have plenty to lose.

People: “The Nazis are coming!”
You: “Get the fuck in teh train!#@!”
FUCK OFF.
Wow that is a compelling argument.
