You shoot people in the face for stealing? Sheesh.
Home invasions aren't stealing, they're a threat of violence and personal harm.
If you're just looking to steal you do it when no one is home.
It saddens me how much right-wing gun rhetoric has infiltrated the left.
It saddens me to see leftists left toothless in the face of those that would hurt them. Yet yall insist on being victims and relying on the same cops that oppress you. Total pacifism has a more accurate name, "I like letting fascists win."
Buddy, if it comes to the point where my family needs to shoot back against the things you mentioned, then we already lost long before that.
Like, if you just took half the amount of time it takes psyching yourself up and purchasing your ammunition and channeled that into -- you know -- civic duty and getting your friends and family to vote, then that would be a far more productive use of your time to avert fascism.
So just take it a step back, okay? Use your brain over bullets.
Besides, guns don't make you safer.
