    I’m not a Trumper and I know for a fact they not only have more gun owners in Republican voting areas, they also train with them more because it’s not as stigmatized. My point is that the Democrat areas will 100% lose any fight since we’ve been told for over two decades that guns are bad

      They have louder gun owners. My friends and I don’t advertise our arsenals, and we practice plenty. My carry is hidden from everyone around me, because many people are uncomfortable around guns, and I don’t want to make anyone have to think about it. I am not unique, and I’m in a progressive area.

        I promise you are in the minority of blue voting gun owners, and they outnumber you significantly to the point that it becomes trivial for them to oppress you (i.e. cops, military, and rural people mostly vote conservative and most own guns, and so they maintain the monopoly on violence).

        We literally will never stand a chance if push came to shove.

          I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. We’ve had to tell these dipshits at least twice in my lifetime not to drink bleach in order to cure diseases.

          It takes a lot more that having guns and knowing how to shoot them in order to win a war. They lack the logistics, medical and technical skills required to effectively wage a war. Every time one of these dumbfucks tries to defeat “bullet-proof” glass with a nail gun, it really shows how fucking stupid they are.

      Democrats are not a homogeneous group. And they don’t have a monopoly on loathing Trump.
