And maybe consider reaching out to your local community organizers to figure out what CAN be accomplished.
That is my advice and it always is that.
Individuals cannot do anything no matter how high your killstreak was in Call of Duty last week.
Communities… can’t do as much as we would like but it is about strength in numbers and protecting your fellow human being. And community organizers ARE the people working on this.
But people get pissy when you tell them that they aren’t going to solve everything by buying a PSA rifle and maybe going to the shooting range a few times a year.
As for what that kind of resistance is? A lot of it is just actually talking to other human beings to help them work through the terror we are all living with. Some of it is keying in on the weirdo who set up a stingray detector and getting them a bullhorn. And some of it is literally getting off your ass to provide an unarmed front that says “if you want to get to these people, you gotta go through us” to ice. Which is what we have seen work incredibly well throughout the country.
As for things beyond that? Maybe don’t talk about that on public facing social media?
Ok so what’s your advice? If you’re just here to convince ppl not to arm themselves you’ve gotta have a better option?
Complying their way into a camp seems to be this coward’s plan.
