Most people left-of-center in the US are too afraid to touch a gun. Meanwhile the far-right collect guns like trophies.
Guns mean nothing if the “good guys” continue having their fantasy of non-violence.
Edit: And while there might be individuals left-of-center who do have guns, it doesn’t acomplish anything unless we have a lot of them also collectively take up arms to defend against tyranny, as in an organized militia.
There are currently more right-wing militias than any left-wing ones.
Even with increasing gun control in Canada many Canadians are wanting to get armed. Also many Canadians disagree with thr brazen and sweeping bans on so many rifles.
And many Canadians are still for the ban and against civilians arming themselves. We are not the US, we are one of the safest place on earth. If people want to defend the country against outside threat then they should join the army where they’ll have a bigger impact.
I’ve personally heard a few people say that’s exactly their plan. It’s basically “I’m a citizen but I’m brown so I’m fucked either way. I might as well make em work for it since the end result for me will be the same regardless. If I’m gonna get taken down, I might as well make it worth it. Why wait to die in an El Salvadorian prison, when I can go out where it’ll at least make some headlines?”
Again, I have heard several people say things like this individually. I fully believe it’ll happen eventually, as soon as they try to stop the wrong person.
The problem is that the wrong people have guns in the US. Most of the left ignorantly believes that they can get by without, when half the country is armed and is practically begging their god emperor to say the word.
Can somebody shoot the ICE agents already? Your stupid guns are all show. No difference whether you have any at all…

The number of left of center people in the gun license course I took last year indicate that that may be changing.

Many still are, but increasing numbers aren’t. I am Canadian.
