No one is stopping you. Go on. Exercise your 2nd amendment right.

What do y'all expect the 2A crowd to do exactly? Show up and start shooting cops? Not sure if this situation needs any more escalating, man. Let the cops keep hurting unarmed people with less-than-lethals, it makes them look bad enough.

I mean when the guns come out they come out for good. You're playing for keeps at that point

Edit: changed "non lethals" to "less-than-lethals"

These comments are interesting to me as a gun owner considering the 2nd Amendment circles I spend time in are all discussing when it would be appropriate to cross the Rubicon and engage in violence against the police.

Non 2A people don't realize it but discussion of open and armed rebellion against the federal government has reached unprecedented levels of seriousness.
