  • TIL:

    Police officers Jose Mateo, Rodolfo Mirabal, Richard Santiesteban, and Leslie Lee have all been charged in June 2024 with Manslaughter because the bullets that killed the two innocent victims were traced back to their weapons, which were discharged a combined total of nearly 90 times during the shootout, and all four have so far pled not guilty to all of the charges.

    It’s most peoples understanding that being a member of any organization that has “socialist” in the name can make you a target for fascist. But I think it’s also most peoples perspective that EVERYONE is a target for fascist eventually. There is no defense in just sitting by and hoping that you’re the last to be targeted.

    this is

    As a straight white male it’s definitely a privileged position to not have to be as concerned yet.

    a great

    The SRA itself is not at all political though and members are discouraged from doing any organizing that could be connected directly to the organization. It’s basically meant to be a safe space for people to learn responsible gun ownership. Something that is usually dominated by the “maga hats”.

    Thank you!


  • Think the FBI hangs out with y’all, post-9/11-mosque style? Which was very nice and not harassy of them

    Wonder if members are safer given you’ll all be more knowledgeable than average or whether fascists would make a point to target the group as the rights situation further declines.

    Hopeful the midterms magically change things somehow and we don’t devolve into this conversation being incredibly relevant/important and it can stay a no-knowledge theoretical comment of mine

    This is an unusual comment I’m gonna make, unusual for me b/c I get phased by violent content and not dark humor

    Comic made me a little uncomfortable maybe because it’s actually showing implied child abuse. If it’s just alluded to then it’s just your imagination and you don’t imagine it well enough way it’s painful, but they show it & it’s like “bro that guy’s a child rapist holy shit wtf”

    Plus the lowest possible defense, 4chan-esque “akshually ephebophilia” “but in Japan…”, don’t even fly for Sherlock

    Edit: also there’s no greater point as you’ve mentioned, like if he wore a Jared Subway mask… potential big change in vibe
