Everyone hates Rand Paul but he voted no on this, as did others on the left and the right. Fuck fascism and fuck left authoritarianism.
there are no left authoritarians in office.
liberals are not leftists. haven't been since 1848.
Any liberal who supports disarming civilians is a left authoritarian.
Only the fringe lunatics think it's even possible to disarm a population. Far lefties like myself realize the power that small arms represent in the fight against fascism. Marx said to arm up.
Marx also assumed that revolution eventually leads to a communist utopia.
Thus far they have only led to authoritarian regimes. Even Cuba is little more than a benevolent dictatorship.
Weapons are a good way to combat other weapons, not ideology.
fuck that dude about so much, but yeah, he wasnt wrong about everything.
that means anti armor and anti drone weapons, too!
