Peacefully

2020-07-09 14:01:25 UTC  

I have been reading the conversation, do you mind if I inquire? Are y’all under 30?

2020-07-09 14:01:30 UTC  

28

2020-07-09 14:02:14 UTC  

You forget that America is built upon the backs of people fighting back qgainst tyranny. From our revolutionary war, the war of 1812, to the countless irishmen koving here who fled British control, and to the civil war

2020-07-09 14:02:32 UTC  

But that tyranny is looking more and more appealing to people

2020-07-09 14:02:35 UTC  

A history doesn't guarantee the trend will hold in the future

2020-07-09 14:02:40 UTC  

That is the scary part

2020-07-09 14:02:55 UTC  

Those events only happened because people stood up, drew a line, and said "enough is enough".

2020-07-09 14:03:07 UTC  

Modern politics changes slowly to prevent people from forming such attitudes

2020-07-09 14:03:22 UTC  

So, we need to draw a line...if it's crossed tomorrow, 10 years from now, whenever

2020-07-09 14:03:26 UTC  

I can assure y’all that there are folks who still remember better times and will not be pushed much more

2020-07-09 14:03:28 UTC  

We decide to peacefully go our own way

2020-07-09 14:03:35 UTC  

Politics even then moved at a very slow pace

2020-07-09 14:04:10 UTC  

The point still stands....our 2A won't do us any good if it doesn't allow the people the opportunity to self-govern, if they think their federal government doesn't represent them anymore

2020-07-09 14:04:20 UTC  

It is a deterrent

2020-07-09 14:04:31 UTC  

We are already starting to have our 2A taken away from us

2020-07-09 14:04:32 UTC  

It says "we're peacefully going our way...but don't come tread on us"

2020-07-09 14:04:36 UTC  

It will be more trouble than it's worth

2020-07-09 14:04:56 UTC  

Gun grabbers in government are already trying to ban "assault weapons"

2020-07-09 14:05:08 UTC  

They don't even know what the fuck that means

2020-07-09 14:05:10 UTC  

Exactly.

2020-07-09 14:05:26 UTC  

But we've let the Left be the only activists in our modern society....conservatives have just wanted to live their lives

2020-07-09 14:05:29 UTC  

"Assault weapons" have the fun switch

2020-07-09 14:05:36 UTC  

My AR doesn't

2020-07-09 14:05:41 UTC  

We have to be ready to stand up for what we believe in sometime down the road

2020-07-09 14:05:57 UTC  

Yeah, we just own an AR "pistol" with an arm brace

2020-07-09 14:06:02 UTC  

I fear that too many of us will just roll over and let it happen, should the left call for authoritarianism

2020-07-09 14:06:58 UTC  

I know, nobody will do shit when the left takes over. People will just be useful idiots and let it happen

2020-07-09 14:07:24 UTC  

We have to convince like minded people to be ready to some day defend their views if necessary

2020-07-09 14:07:31 UTC  

And support autonomy for certain states

2020-07-09 14:07:35 UTC  

Should the need arise

2020-07-09 14:07:46 UTC  

(hopefully it doesn't)
but I don't like the direction we're headed in

2020-07-09 14:08:22 UTC  

Later on it will just be David vs Goliath, the left will just grow to insane proportions in the coming years

2020-07-09 14:08:36 UTC  

Don't be a defeatist

2020-07-09 14:08:39 UTC  

Thats what they want you to think, that there isnt enough of us out there willin to stand up, but there's people all over in every state who just quietly sit at home just waitin to heed their call. Our only problem is we havent organised ourselves so even to us we look small and pityfull

2020-07-09 14:08:39 UTC  

Do something about it

2020-07-09 14:08:45 UTC  

Change minds as much as you can

2020-07-09 14:09:02 UTC  

But roughly 49% of this country leans conservative

2020-07-09 14:09:25 UTC  

Right now...try to be successful at your careers, and start doing what they do:

2020-07-09 14:09:36 UTC  

leverage your position to support conservative causes

2020-07-09 14:09:38 UTC  

I think more are conservative, but that might be because of where I am
