Several niche, left-leaning gun advocacy groups said that since the killing of Alex Pretti by federal agents in Minneapolis, they can hardly keep up with the surging demand for firearms training.

With Donald Trump sending armed federal agents into communities around the country, even more once gun-shy liberals and leftists are considering getting armed.

And while Americans tend to think of gun owners as leaning more Republican and male, already more women, gay people and people of color have taken up arms in recent years, particularly after 2020.

    The difference is that while you can’t change your race, you can change your political ideology, and if you want people to believe in your political ideology you have to actually let people into your little club. And not be a massive prick.

    Or, what, you think the revolution is going to work with the seven people you personally agree with?

        Yeah and I’m sure people are lining up to listen to you. What shouldn’t they? When you call them liberal pieces of shit, it’s a pretty convincing argument to hang out with you and get to hear your ideas.

        Face it, all you’ve done for communism is give it a bad name.

          If they weren’t POS they wouldn’t be called as such. Nothing seems to trigger a liberal more than being told no and they need to put in the work to be included in leftist spaces. They expect us to do all the work for them
