AntiFa Training to Fight Back With Guns

[rondog]

It may not be the most popular view on here, but I don't really have a problem with these guys buying guns for protection. That's exactly what the 2nd Amendment is for. If they want some weapons because they legitimately fear government oppression, then they have every right to do so. In this respect, they are only marginally different than most people here (although they do have a long ways to go).

Now its a completely different story they use them to pursue acts of terror. That is unacceptable. I am 100% certain they will be swiftly exterminated if it ever comes to that.

Best case scenario, they buy weapons, realize what they have, feel better, and learn some responsibility as a result. I do believe that an armed society is a polite/respectful society, even in the case of left vs right. I learned this through my interest in firearms. And I do hope they realize this at some point as well.

Damn, and I thought I was a dreamer.....

Where have you been? They are already using weapons, just because it hasn't been a firearm (yet), they've already displayed their intent, do you think just because they are now buying firearms, that they will have some sort of an epiphany making them responsible gun owning citizens? Please!

It seems you may be over-simplifying the issue. Some have displayed their intent, but intent =/= action. It’s simply a precursor to a potential scenario that may or may not happen. You are correct in that they have used weapons. However, you and I both know the sticks, glass bottles, and spray cans they have used up to now are not nearly as effective as firearms. If they start to use firearms, I believe they will/should be met with extreme force. Unlike any they have experienced.

As retarded as it is, I do believe some of them are legitimately buying for their protection because they fear the current administration. It’s genuinely difficult to tell who is buying weapons for defense and who is buying for offense.

I also believe that increased responsibility CAN drive individuals to become more responsible people. Not in all cases, of course. I’m simply hoping for the best among a multitude of potential scenarios.

Conveyed intent + displayed means to affect = actionable even if $present != action

I meant no offense to you, sir. I should have said "I really hope that's photoshopped." Cuz that thing be scary, yo.

I didn't take it that way, just clarifying

Correct. However, actionable =/= action.

Probably not entirely accurate, but funny nonetheless...

I'm not concerned about getting shot by ANTIFA at a protest.
because I never attend protests and don't plan to start.

Isn't that one of the things we pay cops to do on our (law abiding citizens') behalf? - Enforce the law against illegal protests.

I still wonder what purpose or benefit there is in protesting.
I guess I just have too many better things to do and concern myself with.

You might have one of those things that responsible adults have called a "job". They tend to get in the way of prime protesting times.

For the most part they're not buying weapons for either. Most of these Antifa fools are simply "LARPing as revolutionaries". Buying a gun for them is the same as a fat guy buying a treadmill ... its a gesture that will substitute for real action. Just like the fat guy's treadmill will end up a place to hang laundry, their gun will sit in the back of a closet and gather dust.

But they'll be able to talk big ; ie "Yeah, man, when that orange NAZI bastard got elected I bought an AK..." *hits bong* ..."and joined the resistance".

These people are talkers, not doers.
