they executed this man. they beat him to the ground, pistol whipped him, and then shot him WHILE HE WAS PRONE AND LAYING DOWN.
Americans, for fucks sake, on the other site I'd be perma banned for suggesting what you know I'm going to suggest but you guys REALLY need to utilize that 2nd amendment you hold so dear. They are literally NOW executing you and to those that STILL believe "it won't happen to me or my family" you're wrong, it will and it currently is.
The only GOOD Nazi is a DEAD one.
The Greatest Generation understood this at great cost, and after that bloody sacrifice our leaders quietly pardoned and installed the wretched and vile filth into influential positions anyway, sugarcoating their twisted ideology with a shiny star-spangled finish and telling us freedom had won the day.
Would our great grandfathers still have charged those beaches if they could see how "great" their country has become today?
(Edit) I think they would...
We disappoint their memory at our peril.
No 2a response. This requires organization by competent people with military training in coordination with state government. Where this is going is obvious now. Citizens need to keep on with nonviolent protests and hope to hell there are retired generals out there willing step up and plan and implement what's needed.
Walz should be using the activated MN National Guard to arrest the ICE fucker who executed a MN resident and to cordon DHS personnel to their federal buildings, denying them the ability to leave the wire to go out on CP’s. Instead he’s staging them against the MN residents protesting. Fucking bullshit.
Ironically this is literally the "well armed militia" part of the second amendment that conservatives seem to ignore. Some were concerned that the federal government could simply use military force to undermine state sovereignty, so they enshrined the ability for the states to regulate militias independent of the federal government.
The fascists have spent decades eroding this right by pushing the idea that the amendment is about self defense of the individual, which is a much less of a threat to their fascist aspirations. Now we see the ultimate conclusion of this ideological trojan horse - the "second amendment crowd" is enthusiastically embracing fascism, while the states are powerless to push back.
