the pushback to folks choosing to pursue firearms training or obtain them always throws me for a loop

ultimately this should be the choice of the individual

maybe there are posts i don't see that proclaim everyone must arm themselves by 13:12pm this Tuesday but i'm not seeing such posts

is there a long line where somebody is passing out AKs that i missed?

are you scared of folks using their hands or their brain?

these are very personal decisions and aren't helped by alarmist paternalism

i'm not gonna be in the Warsaw Ghetto telling people to put down the rocks

the paranoia around this stuff is understandable but leads to lateral accusations/misinterpretation

folks can discuss firearms training/obtaining without insurrection being discussed

community defense is an evergreen, year-round necessity. in regular ol' settler-colonialism or under fascism

and if we actually give a shit, it's still currently legal

we can offer advice for those interested without shouting down the very possibility as literal suicide

diversity of tactics, many roles to play
