2nd amendment protects the 1st. You either have both or neither.

It's hilarious that you think an armed rebellion in the US would stand even the smallest chance of success against the US military.

  • There already was a civil war in the US, and that's not how it happened. What's strange is that anyone thinks that a second one would be a matter of the US Army vs. the People, irrelevant to the States. It's a non-sequitur. Anyway, let us pray that it never comes to that, as much as our enemies would like it to. Imagine how giddy the CCP would be.

  • that's what most europeans and even americans said about the inbound UK army redcoats facing a few farmers rising in armed rebellion against the King.

    The farmers stood no chance against the world's eminent superpower at the time, people said.

    Yet here we are.

  • And yet in the same breath we have people seriously claiming that the US government was >this< close to being overthrown by a bunch of unarmed boomers on January 6th.
