We can't have mentally ill people breeding, we better start issuing pregnancy licenses that everyone has to apply for.

Haven't heard of that. But another option is the SRA (socialist rifle association). Its a nationwide version of the NRA for socialist/leftists. They are not activist but strictly an organization for learning firearm safety and use. Highly recommend from my experience with my local SRA.

Our membership has exploded since the election. And obviously a lot of our members are from the queer community.

I am not into guns but I am into that group name! "Activate interlock! Dynatherms are connected! Infrashells are go! Let's go!"

Too bad they're likely to learn the wrong lesson.

White People: "guns are for everyone! That's why there is a second amendment. SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED."

Black Panthers: "oh ok carries unloaded guns'

White People: "wait actually now there are limits"

Standing right here. I'd also like to know what part of due process this is, exactly.

Trump once said that his closest advisor, Stephen "PeeWee Himmler" Miller, told him that he wanted to reduce the population of the US to 100 million people, who looked like him (God forbid).

That would be a decrease of about 70%. It would be interesting to hear his explanation as to how he intends to accomplish that objective.

As supported by the previous executive order that authorizes institutionalization of homeless and mentally ill people.

I am so disgusted by this wretched administration.

"treatment"

It’s the second one 🙃

Best we can do is reduced process.

Any clear-thinking individual has always recognized that the party that will be the first to restrict gun ownership will be the MAGAs.

1789, the year after the Constitution was originally ratified.

They're already trying to label the Democratic party as domestic terrorists.

Surprisingly, seems like they are. Too soon to be sure of course. https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/05/politics/nra-transgender-gun-control

Really??

You don't think it has already begun?

The problem is, everyone has this fantasy storyboard in their heads of the cops showing up going door-to-door with their MP5s and riot shields in a nice neat line loudly announcing their intentions. That is absolutely not how gun confiscation is going to work.

Instead, once they've declared that trans people or Democrats or whoever else are now blanket banned from owning guns, any time you interact with the police, let's just say during a (probably spurious) traffic stop, your name will come up on their little computer as a "person prohibited" and they'll put you in handcuffs and stuff you in the back of a police car right then. And then go break into your house and toss it looking for guns when you're not there to stop them. There will be no fight. You'll already be under arrest for something else. They'll find (or plant) whatever they want, and charge you with an additional nine hundred crimes that are all rewordings of the same thing, and put you in jail. When they come up to you they're not going to be talking about guns, they're going to start off with some low-grade bullshit you think you can talk yourself out of but use that as a pretext to lock you up for your guns.

There will be no headlines of jack booted thugs going around systematically kicking in innocent people's doors and garnering a bunch of negative press for themselves that people can rally themselves around. There will be individual local little news articles, one at a time, all along the lines of "Arsenal Of Illegal Weapons Found in [town name] Man's Home/Car By Brave Policemen After Conducting Traffic Stop, One Of Which Was a High Capacity Black Semiautomatic AR Glock Assault Child-Shooter," with an article underneath carefully spin-doctored to slander the individual in question as a mentally unstable transgendered pot smoking child grooming terrorist. They'll do this one at a time, forever, even long after they've gotten everyone the think they wanted to get.

The only defense against that is to assume that any time a cop looks in your direction you need to lock and load right then and there and initiate a fight for your life. Even if you win, you'll automatically be the bad guy.

Are you ready for that?

Is anyone ready for that?

all you need is to take 1 down with you when you go. and for them to know that 1 of them isn't going home.

Lotta people willing to arrest people who are unarmed for a nice paycheck, a lot less are willing to die for that paycheck.

The left needs to be armed like yesterday, and we need to be protesting armed to the teeth. Watch how magically the police and ice let them be.

Will you take up arms against the US government if they try to take away trans peoples guns??

Half is a lowball

To their immense credit the NRA is against this. Probably because the gun lobby wants to sell guns to scared trans people.

let’s not forget Trump’s executive order to forcibly imprison mentally ill people…

There is no Republican Party any more. They are as dead as the Whigs, and should only be referred to in a scholarly, historical context.

This is the MAGA Party, and doesn't follow any of the foundational tenets of the Republican Party - Smaller govt, lower taxes, fiscal/economic responsibility, family values, etc. It is an entirely separate party whose foundational tenets include treason, corruption, racism, misogyny, pedophilia, genocide, intolerance, and more.

Our country is being destroyed by MAGA. The Republican Party is responsible for the rise of MAGA, but we need to make sure MAGA gets full blame for the destruction they have caused, and the full punishment they deserve. MAGAs need to understand that when they are forced from power this time, they won't be forgiven like Biden did. They will feel the wrath of Liberty.

yes

Set up snitch lines for snitching on trans people, get medical doctor loyalists to snitch on trans people, they can find out who is trans pretty easily, then use ICE to sweep them up.

don’t forget trump’s executive order to forcibly imprison mentally ill and homeless people

We've armed in the past few years pretty heavily as it's become clear they want to hurt us

I dunno if you're in the US or not, but here, the whole information pipe is so screwed up.

Rage? You feed the trolls, and feed the algorithms/news.

Be reasonable like that? No one hears you. Boring statements don't sell ads. And Trump has 'hacked' that attention economy pretty good.

...So you aren't wrong, but I'm convinced that's a useless sentiment now. I'm more into the "where are the Epstein files" meme because uncovering pedophile conspiracies are a core MAGA tenant. It's the only thing that will get through and bust glass.
