    Tens of thousands died defending France in 1940. They didn’t turn tail and run, they were surrounded and cut off from supplies. They fought until it was impossible to fight.

      Yep I’d love to see how many of the gun-owning cowards in the States would actually stand up and fight if it came to it lol

        They’d definitely stand up
        To get the remote from the other side of the room.

        If it’s to usher in facism? Probably a lot of them.

        If it’s a real fight worth fighting for.? Like, 10?

          Eh, they talk a big talk, but if they were actually met with armed resistance they’d shit their rascals.

          Jan 6 only happened because it was essentially allowed to.

      And then there was the resistance, who family fought even after it was impossible to fight.
