Why don't protestors who oppose Trump/ICE open carry their guns to prevent what's currently occuring in the US ie kidnapping, assaults etc?
I'll give you a real answer instead of all of these other dork ass answers.
First, there aren't enough of us to do so.
Second, you really haven't thought through the repercussions of open carrying. Which relates to the first reason.
Open carrying puts a huge target on you. You need lots and lots of people to remain "safe". And you won't be safe. What are you going to do, shoot an ice agent if they try to arrest you? If that's your goal, why open carry? Do you think that the government here is going to suddenly follow constitutional law around a citizens right to bear arms? As they're literally illegally arresting people?
Sooner or later the amount of guns in this country is going to catch up to the ruling class but it's not going to be at a protest.

You're all over this thread and you're a jackass.
Yeah I play. Yeah I had the shittiest beat up guitar when I was in my youth. I took it all over the world because I didn't care what happened to it. Loved it while I had it and if someone had "fixed it", that would have destroyed what it was to me, jackass.
And yeah now I have "better" guitars and I don't have that 25$ guitar anymore.

Did Iran really strike first without a reason or is it BS (like I think it is) and the US is saying they struck first?

Just FYI al Jazeera and al mayadeen are qatari funded. They are not without their biases and qatar has been hit by Iranian ordnance.
Still much better than like cnn though.

I agree those are bad examples.
Better examples:
Phillando Castile. All for gun rights until a black man is shot while legally owning a gun. One could run down the list of black people (and children) who have been murdered by the police because they "thought there was a gun". Guns are legal and they're quite vocal about supporting the right to bear arms (but only if you look white).
Jan 6. All for upholding law and order and obeying the police until they don't get what they want. They lied about the cities in this country being destroyed during the Floyd uprisings as if America was gone.
All of the anti-trans laws passed are to "protect children" and yet they have not gone after any of the abuse scandals in churches or law enforcement.
Build the wall. Enforced only against black and brown people at the southern border.
How about holding the supreme court seat for a year?
We could continue but I'll just boil it down with a pithy quote: there are those who the law must protect but does not bind and there are those that the law must bind but not protect. That is the conservative idea. Go read the only moral abortion is my abortion with that statement in mind and it'll make sense.

Iran closes Strait of Hormuz again, threatening ceasefire
Sick headline
As a result, Israel continued to strike Lebanon, saying the country isn't included in the ceasefire deal. This prompted Iran to halt traffic on the Strait of Hormuz again in response to the attacks.
Huh who put the ceasefire at risk again

A Chinese official’s use of ChatGPT accidentally revealed a global intimidation operation
Are you people the must gullible people to exist? Open AI put this "report" out. Hmm, do you think there's any motivation for them to show how useful their chatbot is? Especially regarding "national security"? Followed up by, no joke, a radio free asia source, known CIA mouthpiece. Reported on breathlessly by cnn.
Like. This is the most obvious fiction.

Whew.
No. It's not inside the Democratic party. DSA is a separate organization that will endorse and support candidates. It's a big tent and there's a lot of competing politics. Chapters report to national and chapters are typically at the city level.
DSA is in the process of nominating progressives in all sorts of local and national elections. But DSA is more than electoral politics. You will find mutual aid, outreach and other activities in that org.
Source: me. Join your local DSA. Or start your own chapter.
