Justice Department leadership is prepared to use its rule-making authority to declare transgender people as mentally ill and deprive them of their Second Amendment right to possess firearms, according to two Justice officials who shared internal discussions with CNN.
Deliberations at the highest levels of the DOJ follow the recent mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, an attack police say was carried out by a 23-year-old former student at the church’s school who may have been a transgender person or a de-transitioned individual. Two children were killed in the attack, and 21 others were injured.
As a gun owner, this is my promise for America
If you come for my guns, we will have a gun fight, don’t worry I know I’ll lose, but I won’t be alive when you put dirty hands on my guns.
The problem is, everyone has this fantasy storyboard in their heads of the cops showing up going door-to-door with their MP5s and riot shields in a nice neat line loudly announcing their intentions. That is absolutely not how gun confiscation is going to work.
Instead, once they’ve declared that trans people or Democrats or whoever else are now blanket banned from owning guns, any time you interact with the police, let’s just say during a (probably spurious) traffic stop, your name will come up on their little computer as a “person prohibited” and they’ll put you in handcuffs and stuff you in the back of a police car right then. And then go break into your house and toss it looking for guns when you’re not there to stop them. There will be no fight. You’ll already be under arrest for something else. They’ll find (or plant) whatever they want, and charge you with an additional nine hundred crimes that are all rewordings of the same thing, and put you in jail. When they come up to you they’re not going to be talking about guns, they’re going to start off with some low-grade bullshit you think you can talk yourself out of but use that as a pretext to lock you up for your guns.
There will be no headlines of jack booted thugs going around systematically kicking in innocent people’s doors and garnering a bunch of negative press for themselves that people can rally themselves around. There will be individual local little news articles, one at a time, all along the lines of “Arsenal Of Illegal Weapons Found in [town name] Man’s Home/Car By Brave Policemen After Conducting Traffic Stop, One Of Which Was a High Capacity Black Semiautomatic AR Glock Assault Child-Shooter,” with an article underneath carefully spin-doctored to slander the individual in question as a mentally unstable transgendered pot smoking child grooming terrorist. They’ll do this one at a time, forever, even long after they’ve gotten everyone the think they wanted to get.
The only defense against that is to assume that any time a cop looks in your direction you need to lock and load right then and there and initiate a fight for your life. Even if you win, you’ll automatically be the bad guy.
Are you ready for that?
Is anyone ready for that?
Lotta people willing to take arrest people who are unarmed for a nice paycheck, a lot less are willing to die for that paycheck.
The left needs to be armed like yesterday, and we need to be protesting armed to the teeth. Watch how magically the police and ice let them be.
Will you take up arms against the US government if they try to take away trans peoples guns??
all you need is to take 1 down with you when you go. and for them to know that 1 of them isn’t going home.
It is not enough for them to know of fear; they must experience it in the same manner that they inflict it. Omnipresent, unending, sinister, and subtle. Let every interaction with the public become a roll of the dice. Then let’s see how brave they are; how willing they are to stick to their cause.
People are worth far more than 1 cop.
not to them
Well obviously in their eyes human life is less than worthless. How do you serve the public and protect the borders without being a hateful coward?
self delusion, an inherent tendency to assign fucked up values to people, years of adjusting to a work culture where it’s normalized to fight detainees for sport.
there’s a pipeline but the selection process starts by picking people who just desire power over others
Yeah it’s a reproductive selection process for hateful cowards.
