They've driven the police and all authority out of a 6-block area and created - or attempted to create - a self-sufficient autonomous zone.

They're now learning about true human nature the hard way. Strongmen will emerge and the weak and defenceless will be taken advantage of.

This is why Libertarians are pro-gun and embrace the 2A (something the insane left opposes). Libs also dislike the state and the police, but they know that they have to be prepared to defend themselves when/if the state and police ever disappear.

Giving them credit for driving out the police is a bit too generous. The leftard leaders of the city pulled the police out.

Weird how with 300 million guns to ostensibly counter government overreach, the insane right haven't made a peep when it comes to any police brutality, or murder by the police, or actual restriction of rights.

Almost like they're scared little boys who like to play pew pew.

If you want people on your side maybe don't insult them and make them out to be the villain.

Social media is full of videos of armed civilians standing down protesters and rioters, defending their own property. Some even came to the defence of others. They supported the demand for justice and reform, just not the violence that came with it.

Right now the state/federal government isn't treading on them and they are pragmatic enough to exist within the system.

2Aers are not all right-wing nutters that occupy federal buildings. I'd say most are pragmatists. System isn't perfect and it needs change, but that change shouldn't come at the expense of treading on others. If you are going to tread on them then they'll defend themselves.

Which is my point. They'll happily turn their guns on unarmed civilians, but never against Daddy.

So much for standing up to governmental tyranny.

Wait, what did I miss, what "governmental tyranny" are you talking about?
 
Randhir said:
Yeah, let's see the difference between the protestors who are facing militarized violence from the government and the king of the Republicans, Bunker Bitch.

You really know how to talk a load of doodoo you know that.

The protesters were burning down buildings and looting shops and killing people trying to protect those shops.

What do you expect the authorities to do??

Well now they have their autonomous zone, let them govern it, no police to harass them, let freedom reign!

How many times have we seen armed groups occupy or stand outside state/federal buildings. Any violence?

Why don't authorities shoot at those that can shoot back?

‘Armed rednecks’ defend stores from looters amid George Floyd protests

Self-proclaimed “heavily armed rednecks” in Minneapolis stood guard against looters who ravaged the city Wednesday night over the death of George Floyd. Two bearded men with long rifles…

“Basically you see the records that cops keep. And cops are a lot less likely to try and tread on people’s rights when there’s other armed Americans with them,” one of the men says in a video taken by the reporter, Max Nesterak. “I figured it’s about damn time that some heavily armed rednecks stood with fellow citizens.”

Then the return of the kings, the Roof Koreans. As with all minorities, they identified with black Americans, supported the non-violent aspect of the protest and demand for change but then armed themselves to defend against the looting. Roof Koreans are now synonymous with any person that advocates justice and demand for change but not at the expense of wanton violence and break down of law and order.

Amongst others, but not just minorities. Where were they after Daniel Shaver? Or the Patriot Act? There's a million examples of this whole 'well armed militia' excuse being complete nonsense.

And I'm not even anti-gun at all.

You seem to struggle with logic today.

I don't expect any leftard to ever be on my side. There's nothing to be gained for me by not calling them leftard.

I expect they will just continue into their downward spiral of communism and self destruction. So the best I can do is point out how stupid their ideology.

Do you know that a white guy was killed in almost the exact same scenario as Floyd. No outrage there though..... he was white though.

Do you know that blacks are killed by BLACK cops as much as white cops?

The police are militarised. That's the bottom line. That is the problem. They see the people as the enemy, not those whom they need to Protect and Serve. Notice how that slogan was done away with.

He's saying police will happily trample on peoples' rights until there's a bunch that are armed?

So basically:
1. Police are pussies
2. Police need to be defunded because they're cowardly thugs

100% agreed. My point was though that minorities are disproportionately affected.

Probably because it's not that big of a deal and is overblown in the media.

So what do you expect the conservatives to do. Roll up to the White House or the local police station and take over like the current lot have done??

Yeah right then YOU would be calling them terrorists, I guarantee you.

The only time they can rise up is when the situation calls for it, otherwise they will just be seen as violent terrorists. When the government goes full police state and comes for the guns then maybe you can say, "Where is the militia". Right now you calling for action from the right is just outright naivete or just being deliberately antagonistic and looking to score points.
