    Left wingers, scootch. Let’s have a little talk. You need to go to the range.

    Just learn how a rifle or a handgun works, because at the end of the day a fat gravy seal might be coming to kill you or your spouse because you’re gay, or trans, or brown, or black, or anything outside the inbread and brain dead ethno-state dreamt up in the head of fascists who want a return to yee olde nationalism so they can jerk themselves to sleep thinking of their “great leader”.

    So learn handling, reloading, unjamming, all kinds of stuff. You don’t need to buy one - though you probably should, along with the means to secure it - but learning and knowing is something you should probably set as a goal.

    Just saying.

      Gonna be real honest chief, I’m more scared of you going on a rampage because of your gun toting boogie man than I’m scared of your boogie man.

      You wanna own a gun? Cool do it. You wanna own 50? I might raise an eyebrow, express a little concern but do it. (Every collector should raise an eyebrow at other collectors, it helps keep us in check). But man when you start sipping that fearaid please stay the fuck away from me. Nothing scarier than a gun owner preparing against an imaginary boogie man.

        Did in any way dog whistle some form of left-wing violent revolution? Preparedness alone is a good thing, to be able to defend yourself. Learning how to use a rifle is a good thing, because you live in a perpetual state of gun violence anyways.

        As for me? I don’t live in the states. I don’t need a gun. But if I had police killing innocent people like it’s a sport in my surroundings, I would. The US police force is just a couple of steps away from wearing leather boots and knocking on doors. Word to Cop City.

        Good luck. You’ll need it.

      Buying a gun is a donation to the very worst members of the Republican party and permissive gun laws do far more to enable extremists than dissuade them.

      If this bullshit worked, America would already be the safest country on earth by a huge margin.

      Hey right winger. I did go to the range. I even took gun safety. I still think it’s utterly useless technology for almost everyone on the planet. You are propagating fear rather than diplomacy and good nature.

      I don’t think 99 percent of guns need to exist. If we could get help for all those people so hurt by their place where they don’t go mass murder children I would love THAT technology be sold and put on the pedestal guns do.

      Because guns have more rights than women. And it’s disgusting. If you think knowing what they do and what they are matters I’m here to tell you, it doesn’t. They still do one thing. End a life and make it easy for anyone to do it.

        I’m not a right winger, you goyt. The reason why I promote knowing how to use guns in case you need to protect yourself from the possibility of crazy nationalists and fascists who might be coming to your neighborhood, which makes me exact opposite, you Barney cunt.

        At least call me a tankie. That would still also be wrong, but it would at least be at the right side of the political spectrum, ya daft cunt.

        Fucking yanks and their broken public education sector.

          Armed with the guns they shouldn’t have been able to buy, but were thanks to pro-gun groups.

        i dont disagree but unless you are the kind of leftist hoping every 4 years that a socialist will magically pop up on the ballot and fix everything, go enough to the left and you will see many people considering guns as one of the possible outcomes.

      I know how to handle handguns, rifles and shotguns, even field-stripping. But warfare has changed a lot in the last couple of years and pew pew small arms are useless. Are small arms all that you know? If yes, you are useless.
