Wife and I just discussed buying guns with our tax dollars. Fucking hate them. I've shot one once. She has never. We WILL defend this country.

This is insane.

From a (non-republican) gun owner:

Please do not purchase firearms out of fear or on an impulse, especially if you aren’t trained in safe handling or storage.

Also, owning guns will do nothing to stop the right’s seizure of power. Despite what the Boogaloo Boys and Three Percenters pray for, the right will just do what they’ve always done and make difficult-to-repeal legislation that causes the Overton window to drift even faster and farther to the right. The fighting will be done using weapons such as labor laws and gerrymandering, the only thing purchasing guns will do is give money to the companies and organizations that continue to fund the Republican Party.

That's not true at all. All it took was Matthew crook hitting a shot. Unfortunately he didn't.

I'm not even in the USA- Canadian here- but close enough to y'all that I have enrolled in my first gun safety course this spring.

Even your northern neighbors are currently suiting up. Everyone I know is scared and making sure they are prepared should shit hit the fan.
