Three men who identified themselves as Homeland Security officers raided a courthouse in downtown Charlottesville Tuesday, detaining two men without explanation.
To add on to what @[email protected] and @[email protected] said, the primary use-case for personal firearms in the US outside of hobby/hunting in day-to-day is self-defense, and as a last resort.
Even with a concealed carry permit, most states’ concealed carry laws state that you can only use your weapon if you have no method of retreat, and retreat should always be the first option. (Rightly so.)
Second problem that this seething pile of shit administration has created, is even if you were cornered, no way out, and used a gun to defend yourself, as soon as they say (real, fake, made up, or retroactively) “oh that was a Federal agent” you’re now looking at having to deal with the Federal “justice” system, which is currently a big lying pile of shit that does whatever it wants with no regard for any life. (State and local laws are, for the most part, still functioning correctly.)
So basically, a death-and/or-El-Salvador concentration camp sentence for the person-that-would-be-helping.
Signing up as a rogue citizen to defend others, as a firearm owner, is at minimum legal fees, possible loss of firearms, possible jail time, or these days, possible disappearing.
You basically have to be in a mental state of writing off your own life to do such an act. If we are at that point, we’re probably in civil war.
There’s not cowboy justice in modern America, most of the time, surprisingly. Only Federal cowboy injustice.
Closest that could be maybe done is if a group of armed citizens in a state where open-carry is legal set up groups to protect those being targeted by the Nazis just outside the legal land boundary of the courts. Specifically because officers (read: thugs) are trained to shoot first and ask questions later. You’d need a mass of armed citizens, not touching their firearms, so the thugs know they’re outnumbered and no matter how tiny-penis-brain they are, they know they’ll probably come out dead if they escalate. Still very risky, could easily escalate as the thugs are also trained to purposely aggravate citizens so the citizens will make a mistake and the thugs can “apply the law” (do whatever they want with no consequences) as they see fit. This would be the tipping point Mango Mussolini wants to declare Martial Law across the US, and then we’re back to the civil war thing. All the rules change at that point, and the perceived “authority” that the ICE cowards think they have disappears, but we’re also looking at massive loss of life, no matter how it plays out. Unlike the Nazis, most Americans value life.
It sucks, right? When a majority of a country follows its laws, but they’re dealing with human trash in power that can mutate it at-will with almost god-mode powers, it becomes infinitely more complex to save the People and Democracy. They’ve done a good job stacking the deck in favor of Tyranny.

Point of correction here. A sentence to the El Salvador Concentration Camps IS a death sentence. The fact that there’s currently no tangible proof that prisoner executions are happening is about the same as see a giant plume of thick black smoke rising off the city tire dump and saying that there’s currently no tangible evidence that the fucker’s burning.
Almost 100% guaranteed that if anyone eventually manages to investigate it properly there will be a whole bunch of mass graves.
The or was more from hope at this point, honestly. Although we really need a first-world free nation to stop that El Salvador shit. Unfortunately, that will probably be the trigger for WWIII the morons in the US federal government are hoping for.
Yeah, it would take almost literally the whole rest of the world to stand up to the US. The military superiority difference between the US and everyone else is… problematic. The US was always a bit of a bully as an ally, and part of the disparity is the fault of the rest of us, allowing the US to take the bulk of defence burden, and mil-tech development. It’s turned allies into perceived client States in the view of people like Trump.
So yeah, if the only way to get Trump pulled up on this fascist shit is to have a global united front, and threaten WW3? We had better hope that there’s enough people in the US military chain of command who recognise, and honour, that the oath they swore is to the constitution, and to protect it from threats foreign and domestic…and not an oath to Trump with the promise of Jackbooting the necks of the rest of the world. Otherwise, as the quote that’s often attributed to Einstein goes:
I don’t know what weapons might be used in World War III. But there isn’t any doubt what weapons will be used in World War IV…
