Alternate Headline: Fascist Regime Attempts To Intimidate Federal Judges By Arresting And Releasing One

Fascism is here friends. Arm yourselves. Help arm others. Train. Help train others.

Murdering people is not the answer.

[–] [email protected] 108 points 3 weeks ago

Handwringing and stifling other's calls to action sure the fuck isn't the answer.

[–] [email protected] 83 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

It's not murder if it's self defense.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

He who saves his country breaks no laws.

Write this shit across your chest and wear it like armor.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 weeks ago

The government's coming right at me!

[–] [email protected] 80 points 3 weeks ago

Murdering people is not the answer.

You are stupid if you think that's what is implied here. Your way of thinking, is what allows fascism to take power.

Maybe an overexaggeration, but maybe not...

If fascism does play out, and eventually "they come for me" because I am among one of the most hated minorities in the world (atheist). I will be armed. My only goal will be to take out at least one of the cops before they inevitably kill me. I'm not dying in some el Salvador or Rwandan torture prison. I only hope I'm prepared and have the courage to pull the trigger if the time comes.

Get armed. Learn how to use it.

Nazi lives don't matter.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a little known fact that the Nazis were turned back at Stalingrad by a weekend protest full of clever chants and picket signs.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

Did some politicians hold up signs while the Nazis laid out a fascist plan in a government meeting? That'll stop em!

[–] [email protected] 37 points 3 weeks ago

Murdering fascist filth, however, is the answer.

My buddy Tommy Jeffy says:

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.”

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah historically fascists have reacted very well to a nice sit down talk.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Fascists aren't people. They're rabid animals whose hunger for power and control cannot be satiated.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This sentiment is pushed onto you to protect the status quo.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

trump sentiment has been to call for a civil war for years. I think it's part of his plan to grab full power over it.

So self defense yes, murder squads no

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 weeks ago

Facists die. That's the way the world has always gotten better.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

My username would like to have a word with you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Fellow Internet citizen, you have an absolutely cool username.

Also, this: being curious about your past comments, I checked out your profile and was impressed by the accuracy of your posts, your excellent use of language - and the fact that you provide links to back your statements up.

You rock. Have a great day and thank you!

[–] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

Fascists aren’t people. Murdering fascists is the answer.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

Murdering a bunch of Nazis worked once before....

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

Peaceful protest against law enforcement snatching people in the street without any form of justification and sending them to death camp abroad does not work much either.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Damn, this is sad to say because I want to agree with you but from my understanding of history, fascism doesn’t ever end without violence.

[–] iknowitwheniseeit 1 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe in Spain?

Very much correct. It will be a bloodbath if that is the direction this goes. We need to bankrupt the people that are the face of this.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

The point of being armed is that you increase the cost of fascist goons carrying out the street level orders of the fascist leader. Do you love freedom enough?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago

We got here because the FBI murdered socialists in cold blood.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

Tell that to 3rd world prison they've decided to rendition undesirables to. How long before they start collecting "the homegrowns" and start cross referencing their little "autism database" they're building? We can all see where this is going. This is my home, I don't want my friends and family disappeared before they finally get to me.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago

It's self defence.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

Holy shit, never seen so many downvotes

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

if it makes you feel better, i agree with you

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

How's that bootleather taste?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

This is incorrect.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

We found the first undesireable by the normal population.
