Title is probably obvious to some people here, but voting Trump and having a GOP president is the best thing we can do to keep the 2A from getting destroyed even more.
I know a lot of people here lean libertarian and I totally get it, but a libertarian vote in a swing state is absolutely stupid for keeping the 2A. If you’re in Mississippi or some solid GOP state then this doesn’t matter. But think before you vote in a say Ohio or Florida.
Harris / Biden will be the worst 2A pair in history - don’t need to go into it that. But remember in 1992 when people wanted to make a statement to the GOP for being shitty and voted for Ross Perot (who btw I really like and thought he had good ideas). The problem with the Perot Vote is that it cost Bush Sr. (Who still sucks for the 2A) and we got clinton. 2 years later we got the 1994 assault weapons ban, the low point for the 2A in our history arguably.
So my point is that sometimes by making a statement you screw yourselves and end up with something worse.
Get the Republicans in office and then once they’re there pressure them shit out of them to repeal barrel length in the NFA for example. If they don’t come through then make a statement during the midterms when the 2A consequences are far less. I don’t care if the GOP loses in 2022
Dude come on I’m being a pragmatist and not an idealist. I don’t blame you for being cynical about US politics and the GOP.
Assuming this isn’t a bait post: Trump is not the “biggest supporter of the 2nd amendment” like he says all the time. He’s probably never shot a gun before.
I don’t think I’m exaggerating by saying Trump is the only thing preventing what would be an effective confiscation of AR-15s and national mag capacity limits
And quit the “coat hangers and last stand” LARP bullshit. Everyone here likes to shit post and joke about the boogaloo but my guess is very few people actually want something like that to happen. Most people just want to have easier access to guns (machine guns especially) and have a good life and family. So many people talk tough but when shit hits the fan most of the people spamming this type of shit are going to be cowards. Maybe you’re one of the people who’d stand behind your word, and I respect that. But most of your “allies“ in such a scenario won’t have your back, it’s the truth
Edit: accelerationism is also for retards in case someone comments about that. Yeah let’s make everyone is so miserable that everyone wants to kill each other. Real great way to achieve your ultimate political goals if you survive the civil war you want to start. I’ve never seen anyone outside of 4chan take it seriously
Little tidbit I always enjoyed was Trump used to carry a .45. Not sure if a president is allowed to carry, but he did before becoming president. And did you see the gun that Jesse James gifted to him? It was gorgeous.
The question is clear: who is less likely to take your gun rights? A vote for a third party is a vote of apathy
I vote based on guns, Trump is the obvious choice to the question
Yes, I'm sure the far-left capital "L" Libertarian party will do a great job of protecting our rights instead of capitulating to communists...
Yup, Jo Jorgensen will do a whole lot from her couch for the next four years. Also it's pretty funny that people think even if she somehow won, or if Trump/any GOP president adopted her stance that there is any remote possibility the NFA gets repealed. Our only possible victories in Congress are blocking new gun laws. Given this country's current political climate the only true victories for gun owners will be courts striking stuff down
change my vote to biden/harris, got it.
Woah! We got a real badass here! Yo, post a pic of your garage SBR or your unregistered postie. Oh you won’t? Then fuck off, faggot. You’ll be first in line to hand in your Palmetto shit-stick for the $500 tax refund that also allows you to not have the FBI waste your fat ass at 3:30 AM.
Said the forum slider smugly. If you have an AR "pistol" with a brace, you are a faggot.
I live in a commie state - I'm a felon if I use a stock.
AR "pistols" are ultra retarded. The fuckin thing is already small and lightweight with a 16 inch barrel so making it the size of a subgun does very little other than turning 5.56 into an even louder .22 magnum by cutting half of its necessary barrel off. There is essentially no reason for a normal, non-doorkicker to run a "pistol" or SBR.
