Sunday

you'd be killed.

This whole 2nd amendment theory. It's a theory. That's it.

Think realistically about what would happen.

You'd 100%, without a doubt, be killed.

If you're thinking we would amass enough people to the point where we wouldn't be killed, I would have to disagree.

We can't even get enough people out to vote, let alone pick up a gun and shoot someone.
