Not entirely true. Huge numbers of leftists own guns, it's mostly liberals/centrist that drank the gun prohibition koolaid. Look what it's got them? Cause it'll never happen here, remember? Oh, whoops. I see people realizing their mistake most quickly with black people; black panthers and other community defense groups in black neighborhoods have been making a come back. Pray more people get on the band wagon. And if you can't legally own guns, there are alternatives. Crossbows, compound bows, muzzle loaders. Being armed in some way is the best way to keep your communities safe from outside violence.

That is the most surprise-pikachu-face.jpg thing ever, wondering how the "Only cops and military should have access to modern weaponry in a CiViLiZeD sOciEtY" crowd feels right about now, watching helplessly as cops and (para)military run around jackbooting any Americans they want with impunity then memeing about it on Xitter.

Also a lot of right wingers have way too many guns, and not in a oh it's a collection sort of way but in a why do you have 4 AR15s in 5.56 sort of way. It's not like they can use them all simultaneously so why have more than one standard rifle? Regardless my solution to getting a gun in the case of random violence is to find a Maga flag and wait until I see them with one, then I'm smacking them with a shovel, axe, or crowbar and jacking the firearm. Worst case scenario I get killed boohoo.
