You would have thought that after January 6th/George Floydd protests, and the lack of justice that followed both, would have finally shown liberals they cannot rely on cops and the "justice" system for personal protection.

Warren vs district of Columbia

Town of Castle Rock v. Gonzales

Uvalde school shooting

Yet here we are.

My body, my choice to protect it the way i wish. Fuck off gun grabbers. Prisoners are forced to give up all their rights and yet they are still not safe in prison. I refuse to be your prisoner.

I agree. I would much rather rely on myself for protection. Forget trusting the cops, I don't trust the prosecutors. There are so many liberal prosecutors who are just drop cases, and judges who set low bail, or refuse to impose certain sentence types on repeat offenders, etc. People who want to take away guns are retards.

How would guns have helped in the George Floyd case?

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

More protesters would have been shot. The movement would have been demonized even more than it was.

The protests were already overwhelming peaceful. To re-envision history saying "moars guns" would have helped is pretty bizarre gun nutters nonsense.

Is this a serious question?

Do you believe armed protesters are easier or more difficult to suppress?

[–] naught101@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

I don't think that question is as simple as you think. Peaceful protest is much more likely to garner public support, at least until things are critical. And taking weapons to a protest in the US seems like an almost guaranteed way to die, one way or another. Not saying the cops are well trained with weapons, but neither are the general public.

Please, Please, Please let the second continuation of this comic be him hearing a doorbell, grabbing some of his guns, then looking through the door's peep hole to see two Mormon's in suits holding a Bible.
