Why the Fuck haven’t Americans borne arms against the profiteering tyrants who are currently destroying their country?

If you think the American public has a lot of guns, you should see what the American government is packing...

[–] Salvo@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

You have a very valid point. And the guns that they purchase wholesale are of much better quality than the retail crap available to civilians,

They're too busy sucking his zombie dick.

It’s almost as if their “Right to Bear Arms” was just an excuse for Firearms Manufacturers to sell more units.

It's a showing excuse to do the same, ignore the rule(s), call that the whole set-up the responsibility of the whatever-word-isn't-the-people they're trying to take the choices from. They'll have it done as they surrender such rights for the ostensably any such whatever but what you actually want.

Guaren-fucking-tee-it. Banks aren't criminals. They're the one that invented the principle of such a word. That and the trick of misleading, deluding, tricking, etc. like the fucking CIA.
