The ATF has slowly been redefining who can own a gun and the government is starting to pull the rug. They’ve also proposed requiring you to put your birth assigned sex on the paperwork, so if you are trans and have ids matching your gender you’ll be required to lie on the form to buy your guns.
The fact that they’re taking these steps prove to me that they think armed leftists and minorities are genuinely the only thing that can stop them now. I sense the US entering the cool zone
2A is your permit. Sue the city.
Exactly city has no authority to revoke your 2A rights.
The cops will shoot you if you don’t comply. That’s where the authority comes from.
Shoot back
Cops have better weapons. Their only disadvantage is there are less of them and they are cowards. Their 2 major disadvantages are there are less of them, they are cowards and they are all out of shape. Their 3 major disadvantages are … I’ll come back in again.
Get better weapons then.
You don’t need automatic weapons to be effective; outside of small-unit tactics, they’re not super useful in the first place. And I’ll betcha that my AR-10 and AR-15 are better than what cops get issued, because I set mine up for long range precision and competition specifically.
Don’t lie to yourself about this. Never underestimate your enemy.
Cops also have the advantage of almost always being able to dictate the terms of engagement. They don’t come for you when you’re in your house, ready to repel them. They get you in your car on the freeway, or at your job when you can’t be safe, and when you don’t have the numbers behind you.
