      true but thats not at all what the person is saying. they are saying they need to defend themselves for if/when these asshats come after them.

        this is exactly the situation. if everyone gets guns to protect from other guns then every thing turns into a gun battle and we all end up blind. and dead.

          well if all it takes for that not to happen is the homophobes to treat the lgbtq+ community with some respect, for whatever reason, than maybe homophobes should show the lgbtq+ community some respect and leave them alone.

          Except most of them are cowards who want easy targets. These fascist LARPers don’t want an epic shootout where they’d be even slightly at risk.

          Though I admit that will become less true as current trends escalate. So it’s not a solution, more of a shitty workaround for a conflict that seems unsolvable and unavoidable.

        You’re right, my bad, what your country needs is surely more guns, that will solve everything.

          What we actually need is fewer nazis. I’ve heard they were defeated once before, I wish I could remember how. Maybe it was a rigorous debate.
