    If the people running our government are a bunch of fascists, and Trump is "literally Hitler", why do you want him to disarm the citizenry?

    By and large, liberals believe conservatives own the majority of them. Now why liberals want the only guns in the country left in the hands of the police, IDK. Liberals have so many unrealistic expectations, that I've given up trying to make sense of them. They must envision ANTIFA and the National Guard joining forces to go door to door disarming citizens. I can't imagine any scenario that ends with the US becoming a "gun free zone". Truly ridiculous notion.

    Liberals are incapable of thinking logically because all their thinking is based on their emotions. If they ever learn to think logically they become a conservative.

    That's objectively backwards. Conservatives base most of their ideas on fear, anger,and greed.

    Those are emotions

    I'm not a fan of such partisan generalizations that the two of you are making, but I don't think there's anything logical about simultaneously believing that Trump is Hitler AND that he should severely restrict, or completely take away, gun rights.

    That and they love going back and forth between:

    a. The police are the only ones who can be trusted with guns
    b. The police are the devil

    Haha, that one always gets me too. Same people who say "cops are racist" say "only cops should have _____ guns."

    Of all the ridiculous talking points of the NRA fanatics, the one that claims that people need guns to fight the US military is not only the dumbest, but also the most odious.

    You would prefer shooting at our soldiers as a form of protest rather than just kneeling for the National Anthem. And you call yourself a patriot!

    Well thats nonsense! Only reason leftist have a base is because the Dem hold welfare and benefits over their clan. They have made it more than clear Republicans want to take all their assisted living away and since many haven't a clue anymore on how to look for gainful employment let alone know what to do if they were to get a job they instinctively cling to the their handlers teat!

    Straw man much. "The left" whoever you think that is doesn't say the cops are the devil. They don't say that all cops are racist either.

    Get back to us when you want to have an HONEST discussion

    There is a brand new shiny fire engine parked in the fire house not more than a mile from my house. But there is also a fire hydrant less than 100 feet from my driveway. So what does this 2A supporter do? Why, I buy myself 500 feet of 1-1/2" fire hose, assorted nozzles, and a hydrant wrench. Because I want to be able to have a fighting chance in case that engine is across town rescuing a kitten from a tree. Same reason I'm going to own an ar-15. Because the cop assigned to my neighborhood might be throwing a drunk in the tank across town when the boogie man kicks in my door.

    Are you accusing Democrats of pandering to voters by giving them things that actually benefit them?

    How dare they!!

    Politicians should pander to voters only by giving things that benefit billionaires, right?

    Conservatives aren't consumed by fear of Muslims?

    Hatred of illegals?

    I wonder why all the bruhaha about border walls and immigration bans is about then

    Fear of blacks?

    That accounts for a lot of the gun nonsense

    Who is afraid of Muslims? I see you don't know the difference between war torn countries and not.

    Who is afraid of immigration ? I see you still want to blur the lines between legal immigrants and illegals ones .

    That's what Republicans want you to believe when they say that tax breaks benefit "all Americans"

    Of all the ridiculous talking points, the one that claims that citizens need guns to fight the Wehrmacht is not only the dumbest, but also the most odious.

    You would rather shooting at the SS than just submitting. And you call yourself a patriot!

    Well I guess that's why some call us man made climate change deniers, because we get outside once and a while and think for our selves.

    Oh yeah, only crazy ****ing crackpots think it's possible that a government would ever tyrannical their own citizens. That didn't happen in the 20th century! Imperial Japan, Nazi Germany, the Holocaust, Italian fascists, Soviet Union purges, Chinese Revolutionary Guard - these things are the fabrications of conspiracy theory crackpots only.

    ... sure....
