[–] lowleekun@ani.social 47 points 1 year ago (3 children) Can somebody shoot the ICE agents already? Your stupid guns are all show. No difference whether you have any at all... permalink fedilink source hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Psythik@lemm.ee 20 points 1 year ago The problem is that the wrong people have guns in the US. Most of the left ignorantly believes that they can get by without, when half the country is armed and is practically begging their god emperor to say the word. permalink fedilink source parent [–] mic_check_one_two@lemmy.dbzer0.com 20 points 1 year ago* I’ve personally heard a few people say that’s exactly their plan. It’s basically “I’m a citizen but I’m brown so I’m fucked either way. I might as well make em work for it since the end result for me will be the same regardless. If I’m gonna get taken down, I might as well make it worth it. Why wait to die in an El Salvadorian prison, when I can go out where it’ll at least make some headlines?” Again, I have heard several people say things like this individually. I fully believe it’ll happen eventually, as soon as they try to stop the wrong person. permalink fedilink source parent [+] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 child) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] obvs@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 child) Most people left-of-center in the US are too afraid to touch a gun.
