Ever learn about “the shot heard around the world”?
The country was literally born from a rebellion that reached a violent tipping point when the monarchy tried to confiscate/destroy munitions.
as depicted
The “depiction” you refer to is a caricature. While I’m certain there are people like this out there, this is not what the majority of firearms owners are actually like.
I will call it a successful gun ownership if I never have to use it
This describes the overwhelming majority of firearms owners I’ve interacted with, including some with sizable collections and even a police officer on the SWAT team.
“Go ahead, make my day”
That kind of mentality sickens me
The Heller decision would like a word with you
If you’re a good firearm owner, your firearms are secured from unauthorized access. Plenty of ways to achieve that while keeping them readily accessible to the intended user for home defense, especially without children, housemates, or houseguests.
He said he loaded his handgun, went back to the windows and saw the people “thrusting” at the door […]
He fired one shot toward the door […]
When told he had killed Rios, he put his head down on the table and said he didn’t mean for anything to happen to anybody.
The fuck did he think was going to happen when he shot at a door with people on the other side?
Ooooh I get it now. My bad, I failed to assimilate.
Not a liberal 🙃
Not chronically online with this account either
You might want to consider alternative interpretations of things people write / say before jumping to conclusions and filling in the blanks from your imagination.
Wow, you got me all figured out from that one sarcastic comment! That’s a supernatural ability you got there!
The hostility is definitely going to work wonders sway people to your cause lmao
A more appropriate caption would probably be something to the tune of “we sure showed the lesser evil”
“It’s like a war zone. There are times I’ve had to have a gas mask on inside my own home,” says a resident near the ICE facility under siege in south Portland.
🙃
Oregon is effectively “stand your ground” by way of not having a duty to retreat law.
Use of deadly force is permitted in response to a felony in progress.
Kidnapping is a felony.
It’s likely a matter of time, and the incident will probably be used to justify further aggression
Still part of the caricature.
The notion that firearms ownership is a conservative / MAGA thing is also a farce imo. You don’t even have to go full leftist to find armed progressives.
Ultimately, there’s more to the “prepper” mindset than the catoonified arsenal of weapons for the zombie apocalypse.
Having a deep pantry is prepping. Hell, owning a fire extinguisher is a form of prepping.
“Preppers” are not tied to one set of politics or another.
You’re describing an imagined caricature.
Lots of discussion around encryption states at boot / disabling FaceID
For iOS, Invoking the shutdown dialog (Lock+Volume) or activating Emergency Mode (Lock 5x Fast) puts the device into a “Lockdown” state where FaceID no longer works, PIN authentication is the only means to unlock the device.
