We are not buddies just because I see someone carrying a gun.

[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3399329, member: 44288"] I have been rethinking this lately. It was likely seeing the rise of the NFAC that maybe we were sticking our proverbial heads in the sands not realizing there might be another threat out there that might be working against conservatives and the republic as a whole. I will not initiate engaging in conversation with people just because they are carrying a gun. We are not automatically friends seeing the world with one like mind so to speak. There are factions that are second amendment purporters that are socialists and I am sure there are others I haven't seen yet.

We seek to provide a safe, inclusive, and left-leaning platform for talking about gun rights and self defense, free from racist and reactionary prejudices, while providing a platform for the working class to obtain the skills necessary for all aspects of community defense". The group describes itself as "working class, progressive, anarchist, socialist, communist, eco-warrior, animal liberator, anti-fascist, anti-racist, anti-capitalist, PoC, LGBTQ-plus". There is a thread in Reddit but I cannot find it now telling other members how they can recognize each other.
