Hello comrades! Friendly reminder that American leftists continue to be threatened by gun loving conservatives. You should know how to defend yourself and you should probably own a gun. Find an active SRA, John Brown Gun Club, or (if things are dire) pink pistols or other “apolitical” gun club.
I’ve been in the SRA for 4 years, it’s not great, but I met comrades local to me. I’ve learned a lot from them and fash who post good firearms advice and I love to share that when I can.
Open for questions and I’ll post more getting started stuff if this doesn’t get banned.
I mean, that would obviously be the case. It depends on the person and personal circumstances. For some people (maybe even most), domestic violence is not a threat at all. The conclusion to the second article you linked is, “state-level firearm ownership rates are related to rates of domestic but not nondomestic firearm homicide.”
I think it’s probably not good that the increasing number of fascist-leaning people in the US are much more likely to be own guns than non-fascists. I’m very much pro gun-control, but until guns are banned, I think more leftist and liberals should own and know how to use guns if their situation permits.
