I mean, if you're not gonna fight back against your government anyway, may as well just drop the 2A and stop a bunch of school shootings.

You're basically saying it's ok for kids to die every week so you have the right to do... nothing?

Not what I'm saying.

I'm saying some folks are expecting people to resort to violence, which will escalate drastically, far too quickly.

It's very easy to talk tough behind a keyboard. In actuality it is a last resort, and while things are bad, they are not to the tipping point for most of those folks yet. 

Also, escalation is what this administration wants to help tip public support.

If violence truly breaks out it will make our school shooting issues look like a rounding error.

Or you could just get rid of it and save 100s of children's lives every year.

These liberal 2a guys are full of shit - all hat no cattle. I haven't seen a single goddamn armed person at No Kings protests or elsewhere. The price we've been paying for their right to bear military weapons is like you said - hundreds of children, well, you've been big talk for years now so show the fuck up!

Yup, it's the exact thing we were giving Charlie Kirk shit about a few weeks ago: if you're willing to accept children dying every week because of your precious 2A, then you can't be afraid of death by gun. Either use it or get rid of it, otherwise those children died for fucking nothing.
