        Convincing a portion of the public that one of their rights is too dangerous and it’s one they shouldn’t exercise seems to have done them a disservice. The 2A is for everyone as well as the rest of the Bill of Rights. It sucks that the current situation is what it had to take for people to realize that police and national guard aren’t going to protect them.

          2A isn’t going to stop them either. It’s a cult and a fascist dictatorship rolled together with a Supreme Court in their pockets. It’s not a problem that’s simple enough for guns to solve.

          They just killed an ICU nurse with his holstered and licensed firearm with zero repercussions and will do that to as many as needed, since the leadership isn’t in any current danger of consequences.

      This is such an annoying take because of how uninformed it is. The people obsessed with the second amendment and the “well-regulated miltia” are the same folks building the dumpster fire.
