the screenshot is messed up for me, looks like the one guy is deformed and has massive eyes.
He's a grey and the facial scramble that conceals his identity is failingLol he looks like an alien
That's precisely what the Tea Party morons claim the second amendment means, but in practice, they don't believe a word of it.
This question has nothing to do with the second amendment.I asked this question to someone a few weeks ago who was arguing the second amendment was to guard against a tyrannical government. Who decides when the government is at that point?
If we didn't do it after the patriot act and its spawn, I don't think we ever will. We literally don't have any privacy, and the government has full authority to secretly do absolutely anything without any disclosure or oversight. The only thing preventing the whole shithouse coming down is that nobody in charge actually has Stalin-like intentions or is willing to invoke the powers already available, but we are absolutely ripe for the plucking if a new Stalin comes along. The fabric is at maximum stretch right now. And this is why it's important that we not destroy all of our norms, which are actually the glue holding our society together- gentlemen's agreements- not law.You may be in for a surprise. Just keep in mind they make an extreme minority. Some say only around 3% of the population.![]()

It's a philosophical question ever since.
At which point was it legitimate to resist Hitler?
Should North Koreans revolt against Kim Dong Dong?
The question when it's the case has nothing to do with the availability of guns once it is the case.
Those are two isolated questions.
Or are you hinting at the argument that it's actually never legit to resist a government?

His guest has the perfect point... the Scalise shooting is precisely what the practice of the 2A looks like.
What does the rest of the WR think?
But that question has nothing to do with the 2nd amendment or the argument that the 2nd amendment can be useful once you made that decision.No, I'm asking who determines it when it's actually legal and necessary to resist the government?
