He wasn't a fascist, but the people who killed him and supported his murder are pedophiles and communists. They aren't really human, so is it okay if people started executing them?

That's where this is going to end up. Of all the things I expected to happen in my life, a shooting war between Americans was not one of them

so is it okay if people started executing them?

I'm disappointed in myself that my answer is an unqualified "yes" at this point.

They've shown that we can't coexist because they don't want it. It's a natural conclusion after trying to be civil and have peace when the other side doesn't want it.

Your answer means you have a moral compass. But it's dangerous to express it.

Communists tend to be fascists. Reinoehl was almost certainly much closer to being a fascist than Danielson was.

And, yeah, do they really want to go down that rabbit hole? "The killing is justified because I DON'T LIKE THEIR POLITICAL OPINIONS, which means they're subhuman."

If we were using their own rationale, which I am not advocating for...it would be time to fire up the rotors, lads. Helicopters, physical removal, all that meme shit.

It's one of the creepiest things about collectivists, they're blind to outgroup opinions. You can try to reason with them, ask why it would be alright to kill people labeled as "fascists" but not kill people labeled as "commies," and their answer is usually literally "Well, communists are good, caring people, and fascists are bad people."

Bitch, it's subjective regardless but, more importantly, most of the people you're calling fascists...aren't. But these people are incapable of grasping the nuance, and see no similarities between killing someone for being a fascist, and killing someone for being a communist. It's Good vs Evil in their eyes.

Hell with that outlook, basically any radical group with intentions to "cleanse" the world of any undesairables is in their rights to do and there is anything wrong with it.

Around this time last year, the thought that the left would make killing right wingers mainstream was an extreme outcome. Now it is coming closer to reality.

Buy a gun.

Around this time last year, the thought that the left would make killing right wingers mainstream was an extreme outcome.

It was inevitable though, as soon as they started justifying political violence. It started around 2015, when they justified violence against legal KKK rallies, and then Trump supporters - now they've leveled up to straight up justifying murder.

If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.

This is what all the fence sitters need to see.

This professor in 2012: Demanding LaPierre's head on a stick was just a metaphor! I'm not endorsing violence!

Fast forward to 2020: "He killed a fascist. I see nothing wrong with it, at least from a moral perspective."

For those wondering, this recomendation is because there are drop-in cylinders to convert BP revolvers to cartridges. It's federally unregulated to turn a BP gun into a real gun, but check your local laws and be careful boating.

– CZcowboy 6 points 5 years ago +6 / -0

Just be careful with this because those cylinders can’t take Ammo loaded hotter than cowboy rounds because black powder frames use softer steal due to lower pressure produced from slower burning black powder compared to Smokeless powder cartridge based firearm designs (especially if their brass framed)

Also (at least in my state), black powder isn't considered a firearm hilariously enough, so they don't need a background check.

Obligatory: confirm your local laws, don't just take the word of some faggot on the internet.

You must have been living under a rock, because they've been saying 'It's ok to punch nazis' for 4 years now, and their definition of 'nazi' has always meant 'not a communist'.

Keyword being mainstream. The normies weren't "punching nazis" back then. Now, the concept of normie seems to have evaporated in this context.

The writing was on the wall and easily identifiable as far back as Milo's college tour when that one kid smoked an antifa goon.

If you are trying to buy a gun now, you're going to have to take what you can get. The giant piles of cheap, quality plastic pistols and ARs are gone.

And yes, this is a communist blasting 'capitalism' on his Twitter.

I managed to archive the Disqus thread specifically.

Erik is either incredibly ignorant or morally bankrupt. Killing a slaveowner for imprisoning you is self-defense (so slave rebellions can be morally justified but John Brown was a abolitionist terrorist that set back the movement several years), killing a random citizen (not a fascist btw, just a regular Republican) due to their political ideology is TERRORISM. But let's just assume he was a fascist, which is incorrect, but let's imagine. HE. HAS. NO. POWER. OVER. YOU. He's just a guy with a regular job letting other people know how he thinks. He's not a celebrity or politician or some puppeteer directly or indirectly causing harm to you. Killing him SETS YOUR MOVEMENT BACK. The "fascists" lose a man but gain 10 more after people realize that you kept saying "you're either with us or against us" and you committed LITERAL TERRORISM.

John Brown and Nat Turner really need to be recognized more as terrorists.

Nat Turner is the primary reason for why slaves weren't even allowed to be literate in most US states. That's a pretty bad move if you're trying to abolish slavery.

That fascist he killed was implementing such fascism, merely walking down the street not pushing anyone around or telling them what they can and can't do.
