Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

College protesters should have guns.
I mean sure but then we are absolutely asking for a massacre and internal war.
Guns only work if you are willing to use them. And once we are, we are saying we don't find police presence valid and the state comes crashing down upon you to end your pitiful existence for posing an internal threat.
We are a country with essentially a bad auto-immune disease that attacks whatever it deems as foreign.
The red hat morons had guns at all their protests and they were allowed to protest as long as they wanted, since police didn't want to escalate.
Meanwhile peaceful, unarmed protesters get pounded into the ground
🤔
Most of them weren't willing to use them and were left alone because the cops were in civilian clothes and busy... You know, doing something other than police work in the exact same area for some reason.
And again what's seen as foreign.
Complaining about us stomping others by being a nuisance is against the people that just want us to shut up and get in line.
Complaining that we aren't stomping hard enough and not enough people is just constructive criticism.
The current goal is to keep things exactly as they are or with more oppression as needed keep it static.
The left can bring guns but it won't change anything other than maybe slightly more likely to die by a cop's hand unless they are willing to use them and once that starts it's will be a lot tougher because we are on the side of change, which must be crushed by the current system.
That's how it is.
everyone should have guns.
Says the guy sitting safely in front of his PC, never having been to a single protest. Sure buddy, you tell them.
