If the argument of a significant portion of the 2nd amendment people wasn't "I need guns because I need to be able to stop a government from overstepping it's bounds". Hell, I think I remember dumb memes about "I need the 2nd amendment to protect your 1st" or something like that.
If the 2nd amendment idiots hadn't just used a much better argument for having guns "Hey, they make tiny explosions and are fun!"... then there would be no reason for the "lefty" to question why they aren't present.
Even more amusing, is I have not seen a single "lefty" demand that the 2nd amendment people protect them from the government. I've seen some question WHY the government overstep is totes ok with them now. But not a single "lefty" that I've seen has wanted armed idiots in the middle of the protest. Of course the cartoon would make no sense if they didn't create that strawman.
But you haven't addressed the real question. Why do you seem to end up with so many memes that come straight out of the white supremacist/incel groups? I cannot respond to the contents of your imagination doing double back flips to impune someone you don't agree with. It's your problem, not mine. |

It's documented. It's well understood where these "characters" come from and what groups use them to make memes. If someone sent you a meme with them in it, then you have to question what their connection to the 8chan host of white supremacists and incels is. given you seem to keep coming up with them, I'm honestly not sure you're not running around with a bunch of white supremacists or incels. |

Declaring something "imagination" which is documented is akin to sticking your head in the sand like an ostrich.
It's a really childish attitude to take, wanting to post any random thing you think is funny, but being unwilling to take responsibility for the provenance of such a meme...
Perhaps some day you will be able to take more responsibility for your actions. |

You should ask yourself why you are compelled say outlandish things, make ridicules allegations, call people idiots, say they are stupid and then stalk them asking them to explain themselves. It's like you just want people to tell you off, it is sick behavior. |

Ah, so now you're trying to use a previous discussion that hasn't been posted on in days.... as evidence of what? That I'm stalking you?
You do realize how a calendar works right? When you say I'm stalking you, you don't then post something I haven't posted on in 3 days when you responded to this thread (which I started) yesterday.
Perhaps you suffer from time impermanence? I'm sure you can find a meme from 8chan that explains it. |

For those wondering, the statute of limitations on stalking is apparently 3 days.

why are cons so convinced that libs hate guns, don't own guns and want only government to have guns? wishful thinking? brainwashing by the gun industry?
most people here consider me to be aligned with the most radical and extreme bleeding heart lefties...
I don't hate guns and think they are an essential component of a comprehensive personal protection plan and a lot of fun to take to the range to keep gun skills sharp; I own two handguns and a rifle with at least 250 rounds of ammo for each; I believe the 2nd Amendment affords ALL Americans the right to own guns, including all the peaceful protesters...but the justification to have a check on a tyrannical govt. is an anachronism: that ship has sailed with all the money we spend on police and the military..
having been a law enforcement officer for most of my working life, I have a deep respect for the men and women who put their lives on the line for the good of us all...most are good people and most are conservative...some should not be wearing the badge and carrying a weapon because they do not have "serve and protect" as their reason for being...
con media ate it up when the armed militia men stormed state capitals to say what they wanted to say about the stay at home orders...would con media have been similarly accepting if the masses of protesters of racism, inequality and police brutality (much more serious threat to our democracy) exercised their 2nd Amendment in concert with their First Amendment rights? |

I thought it was unwise for protesters to be carrying. But you may have forgotten the fact that there was no violence during those protests. And it's not your fault that you forgot. The conservatives haven't been high fiving themselves over the fact that adults acted like adults. They protested. They went home. Meanwhile, we're still hearing the congratulations over the occasional BLM protest that didn't end in looting, and even when there is vandalism and rioting the news calls the event "mostly peaceful". It's a hoot. |

Perhaps that's the difference in protesting to be allowed to go to the barber, vs protesting decades of systemic racism causing the unreasonable death of people by those given authority?
I dunno. Maybe one group's more angry than another. |

ok. I'll await it eagerly. Except we aren't shut down anymore. And no one appeared to have died of "forced poverty".... so I guess that time has passed? |

Can't he still hope? It is so cruel to take away hope. I know a man who thinks he's Albert Einstein. I say hello to him often. It's cool to get updates on quantum gravity. But the guy I know who thinks he's Eddison is a dim bulb so I stay away from him. |

went to get my haircut today...first in three months...good to see the stylists again...decided to keep my hair a little longer than before..
everybody wore masks, there were clear plexi-glass dividers between each station...stylists were required to thoroughly clean the area after each customer and change drop cloths after each customer....seemed the A/C was cranked up, ostensibly for more air circulation...only customers actually getting their haircut were allowed in....others had to wait outside...and the price went up 23%...even with the senior discount... |

the last time "those people" armed themselves while protesting happened more than 50 years ago...didn't end well for most of them...you may have heard about them...Black Panthers...some vestiges remain, but I think those people were taught a strong lesson then... it was actually funny the over-reaction to "two armed Black Panthers at a polling station" on con media during the 2008 elections..the sky is falling...who do those people think they are? while at the same time applauding armed militia (white people) at polling stations to intimidate, but reportedly there to prevent fraud |
