the problem is many believe you're not winning this via signatures or advocacy groups or resources to provide info to stop the literal SS. I think that's the frustration with many people.

I understand it's a "boss battle" but I think what confuses many outsiders looking in is the notion that for the longest time the impression of the US has been "gun loving patriotic 'don't tread on me' nation" and when people see the lack of gun loving patriots allowing themselves to be tread all over they're like "you ok America?"

I mean trust me as someone who lives directly above you guys I'd love nothing more than to see you start knocking teeth in because I absolutely hate living above a Nazi country.

No one is saying signitures are what will win. However, protests and activist gatherings are how you reach new people. Yeah, they don't work alone. They're how you start in the bigger stuff though. Any successful resistance starts slow and small. The ones that don't die quickly.

And hopefully that all motivates more people to vote this time around. I assume there are a lot more liberally minded people in the US than Magats, anyway. Though that's not proving out at the ballot box, though.
