If Americans suddenly realize they've been taken for fools, that's why they have their precious 2nd Amendment.
They always bring it up when the issue of gun control comes up for any reason, but they never actually use the 2nd Amendment for what it was original intended, incl. removing dangerous leaders. Trump is the first true, crystal-clear use case.
That must mean most Americans still haven't understood they've been took, or they really dig fascism even at their own expense.
Hey!!! Whoa!!! That's not fair at all!
......you forgot about that guy on the roof in PA who missed by inches.
I did not. In fact, I keep wondering why this guy's memory hasn't been elevated to Luigi status. For some really odd reason I can't fathom, he's been forgotten almost immediately after his attempt.
I guess he'll be remembered when the dark age America is entering finally ends.
Because trump survived.
You remember John Wilks Booth, and Lee Harvey Oswald. But nobody remembers the guy who shot reagan.
Yeah but the weird difference is, the media and people talked about the guy who shot Reagan for weeks. The guy who shot Trump fell into complete oblivion pretty much within hours. I've never seen anything like this.
Aspiring musician John Hinckley? Ya know, he can’t seem to book a venue anywhere for some reason.
Jodie Foster will never forget what John was willing to do for her.
Because he wasn't successful, over half the voting country supported the person he tried to assassinate, and he wasn't trying to make a political statement. The evidence pointed to him just chasing clout and going for the most prominent target he could. He looked up several different rallies as well.
I mean, he failed, is why he's not lionized
So did Stauffenberg. That doesn't make him any less of a hero.
Did we ever learn anything about that guy? It seemed like a huge unsolved mystery.
The media machine didn't wanna stay on that one though, I imagine cause they didn't wanna give people ideas. Another attempt happened a little later but it was even less successful.
Those same ones who cry 2nd amendment are the ones who got taken.
Unfortunately, the ones who told these idiots that they were idiots are also the same people who want to "take away their guns" and aren't generally the type to use the 2nd amendment as it was intended. :/
Lol the point of the second amendment wasn't to fight tyrannical governments. It was to control the slaves and prevent/quell uprisings and runaways. Says it right there in the text. "Security of a free State".
The biggest advocates for the second amendment, namely Madison, were big time slavers and worked for the plantations interests.
People seriously buy the whole spiel that the wealthy elite put a "in case of tyranny, break glass" button at the top of the list? I got a bridge to sell y'all.
