I realize there’s another post of this already, but this is a longer video with a better view.

Edit: Changed the post so it no longer points to Youtube. Thanks u/Canconda! Original link was https://youtu.be/K9CJY5p0xz4

    I have guns, but even if I had concealed carry permits, I wouldn’t feel comfortable carrying them around with me.

    I am not white. All I need is one panicked ICE to go, “oh my god, brown person with gun!”, and that’ll be the end of me

      Yeah, you might have missed the point of what just happened.

      YOU DON’T NEED TO GIVE THEM A REASON. THEY DON’T NEED A REASON.

      This is an occupying military force and you are the enemy. We are RAPIDLY approaching the point where not being armed makes you MORE likely to get shot. If that women had just gassed her car and run over those fuckers she might still be alive. We are WAY past the point where you can expect to survive as “one of the good ones.”

        Shit, I don’t even know that many people who I’m close with and have fired a gun before. I might be able to manage 5 at the most.

      buddy that could happen even if you don’t have the gun, and it’s only going to get more likely as time goes on
