  • I have considered it, and I’ve asked my friend for a copy of the recording. He refuses to send it to me, for the reasons I’ve listed. I’m also concerned that some of other things I’m aware of would destroy other members of our family (Not MAGA, he ends up being the only MAGAt in the family. Oddly as well - his mother ended up living with an immigrant from Mexico.).

    I would be suspicious that the video ever existed, if it weren’t for my cousin bragging about defending his house by firing off rounds at a moving car he deemed ‘filled with gang bangers’. Fortunately he didn’t harm anyone, he just put a few holes in his neighbors car and broke their window. No punishment, as you can probably guess.

    My family is also entirely convinced that he’s a great man. None of them seem to recognize what he actually is, and this seems pretty consistent across all the people I’ve met who know him (yes he had me convinced as well).

    Genuinely - simply talking about it makes me sick. I am conflicted, at my core. I understand that guns simply make the world a more dangerous place, especially assault weapons. I am under no illusion that ‘good guy with gun stop bad guy with gun’. If that were the true, either I or someone else would have shot my cousin by now.

    I’m sorry if I was hostile towards you, or really anyone else in this thread. I understand that their responses are filtered through the immediate assumption that I must be a fascist ‘dunking on the libs’, because I’ve chosen a topic that MAGA have ingrained into their ideology. I don’t hate them, or you, for it — believe it or not, I am genuinely afraid for each and every one of you.


  • Yeah it’s bizarre, I’m not sure if that’s the correct verbage for it but the situation is effectively leasing. He does not own the store despite being the name and face on the sign saying ‘store owner’.

    He’s got connections, cops love him. My friend has video of him kicking the ever loving shit out of a homeless guy a few years ago. He also helped him delete it. I’ve told him to turn him in but he’s afraid that something will go wrong and it’ll turn back around on him.





  • In 2022 every ideologically driven mass killing in the U.S. was carried out by the far right with an overwhelming number being carried out by white supremacists. In 2025 to date, every ideologically driven mass killing has been from the far right (this is no different than 2024, I have not looked at 2023 but I’m willing to bet the answer is the same). School shooters are overwhelmingly conservative.

    You’re right about them being cowards, you’re wrong about them being unwilling to use them. You’re right that there won’t be revolutions, there will be massacres. They are waiting for the green light from their overlords that allows them to, legally, kill you.
