I get that it's an uncomfortable answer. Comfort isn't relevant
Comfort has nothing to do with it. You think you're conveying some profound point. You're not.

Well...yes. it taught me that it won't be my local police force.

ONLY if you live in some tiny podunk town in which case, they'll eitehr all be fired or, over taken by a larger police force.

But, it'll be a police force and it'll be pretty fricking local

Without the second amendment there are no other amendments.

While this is true, I must also always point out the uncomfortable truth.

"SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" has been infringed to hell and deeper. Every gun "law" is wholly unconstitutional. I'm not opposed to background checks that already exist on basic purchases but that's the extent of my "bend". If I want to buy a MilSpec M249, I should be able to pass my background check and buy one. If I want to buy a full-auto MP5, I should be able to do so. I want a 40mm M203 on every rifle I own, but noooooo.

The only reason we even have a "Second Amendment" at this point, is that there are plenty of firearms already in circulation to prevent its nullification. The first time it was ever infringed, essentially rendered it completely obsolete. The entire purpose of that Amendment was that it prevented the government from taking away a right granted to us inherently upon birth into this world.

Actually, to be fair, I don't think it's particularly profound.

But, I do think conservatives would do well to remember that when push comes to shove, the police work for the man, not you.

When you see these cops in Australia, Britain, Germany, etc doing shite and you're like, what the frick? I'm like, um, OURS ARE NO DIFFERENT.

They'll follow orders. With RARE exception

Oh, I'm sure

And yet, it is my impression the lesson wasn't learned at all.

I don't live in a tiny town.

They might be fired and taken over, but then they'd be fighting with me.

Houston Police Department openly stated they weren’t going to listen to any of the mandates the local gov’t was trying to implement during covid. Houston isn’t some small backwoods town

The 2A makes politicians and activist judges think about their own safety.

It would just split the military along political lines again.

You realize that the military is us right?
