And we have it: 2nd Amendment, isn’t it?
- jmward01 2y agoNo. You are effectively advocating for violence as an acceptable solution, which it isn't. We need effective checks and balances but this ruling appears to have eroded one of them. If the rule of law doesn't apply to a president then we have lost one of the major checks on them, the judicial system. The judicial system is supposed to be one of the checks that keeps presidents from turning into kings and abusing their power to the detriment of the country and the people that live in it.

- beretguy 2y agoI mean, I’m wondering if we will have a civil war 2 at some time in the future, trump supporters and fascists vs normal people, so i wouldn’t be shooting alone.
- DEADMINCE 2y agoTrump supporters and fascists are more likely to destroy themselves before it ever gets to that point. If anything worse than covid comes, given their resistance to vaccines, the problem will sort itself out.
