20. Is that why members of "our side" call for violence against others?

"Second amendment remedies"?

Advocating for the political assasination of those that disagree with them?

Remember that?

Those are the type of people you are sticking up for on "my side".

You people are a threat to Democracy.

And as far as "You're lucky we respect the Constitution and the rule of law", that is just about the dumbest thing ever posted by a Gunner.

People on "my side", the so-called "law-abiding gun owners" turn violent and commit crimes or kill using with firearms every single day of the year.
