    Those that make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable. - John F Kennedy 1962

    I do hope no violence happens in Texas, I really do.

    Though anyone who has picked up a history book knows how this ends. And usually forced to sit as a bystander as it happens.

      Yeah the problem is that the other side says the exact thing, with the difference that they aren’t oppressed, they simply lost the “right” to oppress others

    This is how we descend into vigilantism - when the justice system is fundamentally unjust people need to seek their justice elsewhere.

    This isn’t an endorsement of vigilantism either - it’s fucking horrible and can be used against justice just as easily for justice.

    Remember: If you see someone with a gun, shoot on sight. It’s your constitutional right to use guns to defend yourself against people with guns.

    Maybe asshole Abbott will find himself in the middle of one of these violent protests.
