#Republican Party plan - First, end all restrictions on #firearms in order to #arm all the #people. Then when they start #shooting each other, impose a #policestate.

In Illinois, our legislature passed a ban on assault weapons and our governor signed it into law. Now some sheriffs are refusing to enforce it. A lawsuit in one county resulted in a judge halting the law in that county.

Only a good guy with a gun can stop a bad guy with a gun?
If these guys had somehow killed one another, I could see this as an argument in favor of gun ownership (an invalid argument, yes, but still an argument).
Instead it's just a bizarre mixture of idiotic, ironic, and very nearly tragic.
Perhaps the daughters will grow up to be influential gun control advocates.
#NIOA is #Australia’s largest privately owned #weapons and #munitions company, found in 1973 by Robert Nioa, who remains the company’s CEO. NIOA primarily supplies the #Australian #military and #police forces – they are the majority supplier of #guns and #ammunition to the Australian police. According to their website, by 2022 the company had supplied “Over one billion rounds have been supplied by NIOA to the Australian Law Enforcement, Military and Sporting markets”.
...
NIOA plays a key role in supplying the Australian military through the “LAND 159 Lethality System Project”, an upgrade programme which sets out to “equip the ADF with next-generation weapon systems, surveillance and target acquisitions ancillaries, ammunitions, facilities and training and support systems”. NIOA is the prime contractor for stage 1 of the project, covering sniper rifles, laser sighting systems and close combat weapons (including knives, pistols, shotguns and assault breach systems). The contract is worth A$527.2 million.
...
In 2017 NIOA transitioned from the commercial gun market into supplying military and law enforcement, with a contract to supply the police in Australia and #NewZealand with 70,000 Glock pistols. NIOA supplies Australian armed forces, such as the Northern Territory of Australia (having signed a three year contract worth A$857,623.97 in 2021) and the Victoria Police (with a three year contract to supply 22 different types of ammunition from a range of companies).
...
NIOA has a close relationship with a number of prominent Australian #politicians. For example, in January 2018 the then-Minister for Defence Christopher Pyne announced the award of a $100 million Federal government contract by the Commonwealth under the LAND 17-1C.2 Future Artillery Ammunition program. In 2020 Pyne was welcomed as the chairman of the company’s inaugural advisory board. Other examples include Kim Beasely (former leader of the Australian Labor Party) and Brendan Nelson (former leader of the Liberal Party) have taken up lucrative leadership positions at NIOA after their #political careers. Scott Morrison was also photographed holding a large ammunition shell at the Rheinmetall NIOA Munitions factory in 2021.

The number one cause of unnatural human death and suffering throughout history is government in one form or another.
Giving government the monopoly on force is simply giving a small, powerful group of people the ability to kill or tyrannize everybody else, and then hoping they won't do so.

The #Democrats & their #UniParty "#Republican" enablers are setting a #trap for Constitutionalist #gun owners.
"Red Flag" #laws are intended to target #Constitutionalist Americans via #Internet #surveillance, sending #law enforcement to confiscate #guns from people who are passionate about their #rights & will use their guns to defend those rights from infringement.
When Constitutionalists defend their rights against #infringement of them through the use of "Red Flag" laws, Democrats will falsely claim these incidents are #proof "Red Flag" laws #work & then use them to #disarm #Americans with impunity.

Looking at moving in the middle of nowhere, probably not immune either, but maybe less of a target. That worked out well for the guy in Idaho minding his own business. (Randy Weaver).
