I would love to see American’s fighht for this freedom they so claim to love so much. What I see are mostly coward’s, too afraid to use force again their tyrants.

It’s easy to sit on the other side of the border or other side of the ocean from where this is going on and tell strangers to shoot people to assuage your conscience. Building parallel support systems takes time. Organizing takes time. And if you’re looking at our mainstream media, you’ll never know what is actually going on, because they are owned by the very people who want to kill or capture Americans.
Tl;dr: get over here and pick up a rifle, or keep your snide comments to yourself.

Nobody else was so loud and obnoxious about guns. Kids need to die for the right to have guns. Theater goers need to die. Church attendants, festival dancers, more kids, some more kids, another church, some university students…
Now? Crickets.

That’s because the Americans who were saying that are all either in favour of ICE or working for them. But there are just as many Americans who did not shout about the right to own guns because they could see all the problems with them, and many of these Americans are quietly organizing resistance. I’m not in the USA but I won’t judge people for not picking up a gun and mounting a solitary suicidal attack on better-armed Nazi thugs. Proper resistance takes some organizing.

Well, they didn’t do much about guns then and they’re not doing much about anything now.
In the UK, the guy who recommended a guy who appeared on the files, just resigned. In the US the top pedo is president and people just continue to going to work and living their lives.
You see it here on lemmy too, which is even more politically active as the average person. Distance, money, health insurance… any excuses.
See what French people do every time they want to raise their retirement age.
