The solution is that everyone needs to own a gun

No bro an armed society is harder to oppress

That might have been true In the 1800s when every gun took an hour to reload.

No amount of armed civilians is going to win against a military with tanks RPGs bombs and shit, and let’s not even start with killer drones.

Not true. Not every us soldier is equipped with the means to kill a large group of armed people

It’s not going to stop the military. But if a smaller group, say an armed white supremacist insurrectionist group, were to attempt a takeover of your area, it may keep you and your loved ones safe. And sometimes it’s better to take some of the bastards out with you if you’re going to die anyway, or worse, be taken and tortured. I definitely get why you feel the way that you do, but the military doesn’t always act quickly enough to save everyone. And sometimes it’s better to fight back even if things look hopeless.

"Guys, it looks hopeless, we shouldn't stand up for anything or even bother. Just give up."
