Blm did answer for looting, just not the answer people would expect

Ive seen a mumbo jumbo of references to social contract, social justice, reparations, police brutality, underpaid workers, capitalism, wage theft, raah raah raah looting is justified

Hell some of our liberal regulars have echoed the same sentiments

tl;dr i dont think its accurate but i also detest the lobbying activities of the NRA, of which im a card carrying member.

I would phrase it as follows: the NRA does not endorse or defend school shootings, but they at the same time lobby against any bills and ballot initiatives which would contain or mitigate gun violence.

Out of a fundamentalist interpretation of 2nd amendment rights, the NRA is willing to put up with a huge death toll. They are not a good faith actor. To be fair though, the same can be said of a lot of the actors on the other side who want to leverage school shootings for their actual goal of abolishing private gun ownership altogether.

The NRA is weak. Try GOA or FPC for true support of the 2A.

Let me guess: GOA and FPC compare to the NRA similarly to how Newsmax and OAN compare to Fox News?

Property only exists within the social contract. Without somebody to exclude there is no ownership. It merely is.

GOA and FPC don't waffle. They challenge gun laws in court and win.

That's Rashida Tlaib, the squad member who is of Palestinian descent. I think her parents were Palestinian refugees or so.
Based on her family history and identity, she is one of the most outspoken anti-israel Members of Congress and repeatedly under fire for veering into outright antisemitic territory with her remarks.

She's also an advocate for literally abolishing police, incarceration and border enforcement. Compared to her, AOC looks like a moderate.


i don't mind a little junk in the trunk anyways

The 2A itself is weak. Marx advocated that the proletariat have equal capability and munitions to the State, and that any attempt to disarm the workers should be met with immediate force. 2A only provided for regulated militias to be called into the service of the State.

That is not what the 2A does.
