Conservatives literally want to be able to own whatever firearm they want and be able to mow us down with impunity so much so that when they can’t, when we too are armed they react like this fucking idiot
When the Black Panthers in Oakland started carrying to protect Black people, Regan changed open carry laws in California. Maga people only want guns to be used for what they want, violence and intimidation against anyone non-white, queer, or non-Christian. When any of those demographics stand up against the Maga clowns, all of sudden guns have to be regulated. The goalpost will always move inntheir interest to dominate others they hate.
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
— Frank Wilhoit
The good news is that for once we can all back the same tactics:
- If you think gun control isn’t the answer: arm marginalized people so they can defend themselves.
- If you think gun control is the answer: arm marginalized people because that is the only thing that actually makes politicians do gun control.
Either case, the answer is: give free guns to trans people.
How does having a gun protect you if you're trans?
In case you're too dumb to read this graphic should do well to explain
