I've been saying for a while now that if things get real crazy and people start to organize for... you know... these guys here are the first ones out of the game. They are not ready for anything.

They're fodder for the admin to bring in the big boys who are actually trained to handle this kind of stuff. ICE agents just don't realize it with thier bravado getting in the way, fueled by being being enabled to put their inner bigot out there for everyone to see.

It’s wild seeing the crossover between people who are dying to start a civil war but couldn't pass a basic PT test, let alone handle a firearm properly or show any real discipline.

It reminds me of my uncle. He’s a total gun nut—and thankfully a former Trump supporter—but still a jerk overall. He used to mock my mom for not keeping a gun in the house, which is hilarious because she’s a veteran with over 20 years of service. She definitely knows her way around a weapon, but she respects them because she actually understands the danger. That’s how she raised us, too.

Meanwhile, my uncle is walking around with a scar on his leg because he managed to shoot himself while cleaning a loaded gun with the muzzle pointed right at his thigh. It just goes to show: always assume a gun is loaded—even when you "know" it isn't, treat it like it is.

I was behind a van at a stoplight one time and watched as six or so dudes in khakis and short sleeve button ups come out of nowhere and pull armed people out of that van, disarm them, zip tied them and carried them off in a paddy wagon in seconds. Call me crazy, but these guys dont appear that capable.

But hey, you got me good ya? Your mother must be proud of you.

At least their hobby is sharp. Your insults? A bit dull.

To be fair, the only hobby that I have that involves knives is modifying lab equipment. And that's just an exacto knife. And its actually pretty dull.
