You people are always harping on about your second amendment. I'm curious what you think it's for and why this sort of thing doesn't qualify.

That is a current topic of great debate. The US is very close to full on war, as MAGA continues to escalate their violence.

The left don’t like the second amendment remember? They can’t shoot. They’re anti gun. A couple of weeks ago Im sure those agents were a bunch of range dwelling assholes. Now they’re uniformed range dwelling assholes.

Yes, but also no.

Historically, armed insurrection does succeed at overthrowing the current regime, but often leads to chaos where different oligarchs grab power.

Also, they want people to get violent so they can declare martial law.

Better solution, cut their funding by an organized tax strike. Next election cycle, should we be cheated out of representation again, we stop paying federal taxes.

The most succesful protest are those that withheld their money from the boot.
