        If I pull a gun when ICE thugs roll up on me, I am ABSOLUTELY not going to the gulag.

        I will be dead, having been shot 197 times by 3 people who shot 400 rounds each.

        But if I’m lucky, quick, and have drilled enough with my firearm, I’ll have taken at least one of them with me.

        The gun isn’t some magic forcefield, and nobody who posts or says things like this is under the illusion that it is.

        I’d rather die quickly with a small chance of taking out an oppressor than to die slowly in a concentration camp
