Yeah, what a myth.

Hey, if Breitbart, Alex Jones and Hannity say it’s true - we’ll that’s good enough for me.
You are certainly not compelled to read sworn testimony or peruse court records, but it may help.

Oh, that was bad. I read it this morning.

She just lost all hope of ever winning the Presidency, what a moronic line of questioning.
An oath to uphold the constitution; a duty to defend the nation.
The enemy is within, attempting every day to tear down this great nation.

We said the same about Trump. He said much worse and is President, so anything is possible.
Still, woah boy, that is bad.

she makes my brain hurt. Could you imagine the rabbit hole this country would go down if that was the president.

Well, it seems like most people of political fame wield nuance like a jackhammer, so I'm hardly surprised.
If she were to run, she's pretty much guaranteed California, Oregon, Washington, New Jersey and New York: 113 electoral votes. These are also the states with a high number of postmodern leftism.
That's a huge number for only five states.
LOL @ the ACLU. They are gettin rightly ratio'd.

"Nobody wants to take your guns!"
Agreed. Nobody wants to take your guns. Especially politicians from California!

And it would be a short war my friend. The government has nukes. Too many of them. But they’re legit. I’m sure if we talked we could find common ground to protect our families and communities.
That was spawned out of a conversation about gun control lol
I'm sure since the first firearm was put into circulation in the US, someone wanted them eliminated. There also have always been people who think we're being poisoned by chemtrails. I think it's a leap to go from either to "they're coming for our guns" or "they're trying to chemically control us."
Who said "they're coming for our guns?"

The gun grabbers make no sense. If shit really hit the fan, the military isn’t magically going to side with them.

Overwhelmingly the opposite, one would think.

That response that "the government has nukes" was always a dumb response.
There you go. Use the nukes. Enjoy governing your sea of glass and no people. You can't use the nukes to control the people. Only to eradicate the people.
If you want to control the people, you need boots on the ground. Compliant armed personnel on the street corners, willing to kick in doors and enforce compliance.
There are just over 2.1 million military personnel. There are roughly 81.4 million civilians with firearms. Even if we assume that every single member of the military were skilled in combat (which they're not), and even if we assume that every single member would remain loyal to government over citizenry (which they wouldn't), it still wouldn't be slam dunk odds, with each member of the military essentially being responsible for about 160 people, 40 of whom would be armed.
None of this even mentions the fact that those who turn around to fight for the citizenry would likely bring firepower to which they previously had access, leveling the arms playing field as well.
The fact that government has bombs, jets, and nukes doesn't actually mean dick with respect to controlling the people. Only if they intended to annihilate the people and govern barren land.

Boatshoes legitimately used the nuke argument on this site one time. I also have had a lot of people use this argument on me. If you have to nuke your country to tyrannize your people then the 2A works. End of story. Also, you can’t just nuke pro gun people LOL.
I also love the “your guns can’t stop the military” argument. I recommend reading up on the Vietnam war and the Middle East the last 17 years if you actually believe that.
