There’s no way around it, Bill “K2” Hartwell was upset.
With a “Guns Up III% Security Force” t-shirt tacked onto the wall behind him, the III% Security Force militia member covered his head with a “III” baseball cap and spoke mournfully to his sister in arms, AC Lytle, who also wore the militia’s gear, in a Facebook video Monday.
Hartwell apologized if he upset anybody with his words. They weren’t meant to be anti-Semitic, he said, but rather “in support of those that endured tyranny of the worst kind in Nazi Germany.”
“And that’s what we feel like right now,” he observed.
I agree with what others have said: they’re not a militia unless they’re organized under the supervision of the local government. Would you (and did anyone) describe the Black Panthers as a militia? These are white power groups or gangs. Incel power gangs.
sigh Yet another uh… triggered ammosexual. Shouldn’t he be down at the border opposing the tyrannical government and liberating children from concentration camps?.. C’mon, time to cowboy up!
Was chatting last week with an old friend who is regretting his vote for Trump. We strayed into guns as a topic. He brought up the ‘defense against tyranny’ angle.
I smiled, “You realize if the government wants you dead - you’ll never see the drone that kills you.”
He laughed and nodded, “You’re right. I mean if I’m going to be paranoid, I should at least be realistically paranoid.”
I think he’s going to cross over and vote “D”. He seems very interested in Warren.
You’re not, and TPM is only feeding and enabling your delusion by adopting the language you chose to describe yourself because you think it gives you legitimacy versus “armed hoodlums”, “freedom-fighter LARP” and “domestic terrorist organization.”
The perfect example of “Cognitive Dissonance” (agreeing with two opposing ideas in your head at the same time.)
The public demanding that limp-dicked little man-children like you be prevented from purchasing Military Weapons and strutting around pretending to be BIG MEN is exactly the same as the Nazi’s burning Jews in the ovens of Auschwitz.
Sure buddy.
Curious about this—the description of the incident suggests they were deliberately trying to intimidate the pro-gun-control demonstrators. But if the open-carry laws made that impossible to charge them with, was impersonating an officer the next best thing? Or maybe even better? Have to think it’s a pretty serious offense.
What REALLY upsets them is the fact that; They are NOT “recognized in public” for what they WANT TO BE.
The Public sees dangerous lunatics engaged in self-masturbatory role-playing with REAL WEAPONS, while they DESPERATELY want to be seen as; 'Wolverines!!!" heroes, single-handedly saving the world from Bond-Villain Devil-Worshiping Evil Deep State Conspiracies that only they, with their “Superior White Male Brains” can see and recognize.
sad, sad little men, being daily taken as the rubes they are by the Reich-Wing Propaganda and Financial Fleecing Machine.
Yeah, because REAL courage is wielding military-grade weaponry against unarmed protesters and not the unarmed protesters defying the armed goons. They always see themselves as the heroic victims.
Hollywood is to blame for this. For decades these people have seen with their own eyes the power of guns to allow normal dudes to triumph over evil. All they really have in life is the fantasy.
