    I went out, got a permit to purchase, and bought a gun plus ammo shortly after Trump was elected. I have been prompting friends and others to do the same, organizing who I can to the cause. I am no fool, one man with a gun can’t solve this, nor do I believe myself to be some great revolutionary leader who will lead the nation into the future. So, instead, I promote the cause, I continue to try to organize and prepare for the eventual war that is to come, and remind people like You that You have done nothing and continue to do nothing. You can change that, the revolution does not only need fighters, but those willing to spread the message of rebellion, and those willing to do what they can to support the cause. Stand with us, or stand aside.

      having fun fellating yourself on top of your high horse on the Internet? sorry, but it is not every persons responsibility to play morality police and risk their lives to defend other people. condemning people for not fighting is fucking asinine and not something ANY person is obligated to do and I’m tired of people acting like it is

        It’s not anyones responsibility to risk their lives, I wouldn’t blame anyone for not standing up against the Nazis in 1938 Germany, but in light of what we know, it’s becoming more and more impossible to maintain a clear conscience without fighting back.

        I don’t see it as ‘condemning’ someone for not doing more, just a belief that anyone capable should do more and they will likely feel regret if they don’t.

        Nah, we are, we are. We can just be too cowardly to do it (God knows I would be if I were in the same position). And lying about it, even if you’ve also lied to yourself, is a bit shameful.
