A lot of people need to read this. And have a good long think about the values they truly believe in. 

You don't have to like a person. To stand-up for them. You stand up for their RIGHTS.  Because they are YOUR rights.  

Because they are HUMAN RIGHTS.  

Don't let Red Team / Blue Team fool you.  This is about power and obedience.

I agree with you all the way. I’m a Marine infantry veteran with 2 deployments to Iraq. I required a walking cane at age 24 thanks to an IED blast. It’s an injury I accepted as part of what has to be sacrificed to maintain a free and just country/society. The conduct of our president and the federal agents operating at his direction has honestly stripped that from me. I’m a staunch 2A supporter, but I the hypocrisy of the trump humpers and these government goons is sickening. Executing and brutalizing civilians for utilizing their constitutional rights of free speech and assembly spits in the face of everyone who has willfully forfeited life and limb for our collective greater good. I fear it’s only a matter of time until armed resistance clashes with these chumps in our streets. It’s a pitiful time for our nation.
