I've been keeping an eye on my BookFace feed, and one common remark that keeps coming up from the "safe space" crowd is that people of color, LGBT folks, etc. are going to face a significant increase in "hate crimes" with Trump being elected. Whether this is true remains to be seen. However, I did see a couple of pro-2A folks engage with these people, and suggest getting their LTCs and arming up if they felt that threatened and scared.
The response was an overwhelming NO.
Despite "fearing for their lives" as they claim, these folks are still so anti they 1. would never even think of getting a gun, and 2. still want to push gun control.
Someone even suggested OC spray or even learning basic self-defense, which was also shot down with a resounding no. Why?
"Because I have a RIGHT to feel safe, I shouldn't have to do those things."
