    Watch a dem do the same and have every maga POS tripping over themselves to call them out.

    Dems have to start fighting fire with fire.

      That’s a problem when you have one group trying to do what is remotely morally right and another who doesn’t care and wants to “win” at any cost.

        It’s also a problem when a group has most of the guns and is stupid enough to use them without thought for the consequences. Moreso when the authorities responsible for enforcing those consequences tend to be in agreement if not allegiance with the group in question.

          I wouldn’t be so sure that they have us out armed. The majority of veterans are left leaning, and most of us kept our service sidearms and rifles.

            Huh? What bullshit is that? As an actual leftist veteran I know that most veterans are not left leaning. I also know that the US military does not let you keep any sidearms or rifles with you even while you are in. That stuff gets locked up in the arms room. CIF doesn’t even let you keep your canteens when you ETS, let alone weapons.

              Anecdotal, but I had a roommate who was a veteran. He most definitely still had his rifle. He was also very left leaning.

              The Vietnam era vets kept a lot of guns from their tours. Stuff gets lost in wartime and they were more lenient back then.

              I’m a vet too and I know lots of vets. Most of them are left leaning. Most of us have guns.

        They’ve gone through all the effort of putting their teeth closer to your boots, it’d be inconsiderate to not let them meet.
