I hate guns and always thought open-carry was stupid. I get it now. When government thugs are taking people from the street and "disappearing" them, the rest of the citizens (who won't put up with that crap) need to be ready on the spot, while it is happening.
Isn't this why Americans have so stridently been justifying their need for guns? To protect themselves against tyranny and government overreach? And now it happens they're all like "Ummm. . . You first!"
At the time? In a four-against-one situation? They will vaporize you. If you decide to go 2A in the moment of an ICE kidnapping you'll end up a page 12 story and leave your mother without a son. You're not John Wick and they will be ready for you with body armor and better training.
If you want to serve refugee communities there are many, many ways that don't involve the inevitable loss of your own life in extreme, violent ways.
Edit: Be real, real careful when internet tough guys try to encourage you to commit violence. People who really do stuff like this don't talk about it first, so there's a 100% chance what you're reading was posted by a keyboard warrior or a fed.
Better training? Not from what i’ve seen. They appear to be scared children with guns and cs grenades that go off at any loud noise.
Better funding. Definitely not better training.
Better funding. Their "training" is practically non-existent
Yeah there's only one kind of whistle for ICE, in my opinion
Still stupid. Carry a gun and ICE will just murder you.
Murdered on the street or murdered in a detention center, same outcome
