They're already talking about stationing their ~~gestapo~~ ~~ICE~~ Gestapo at voting locations across the country, They are actively, and openly, discussing their plans to openly interfere in the election. The only question is if its gonna be via violence and disappearance before people can get in the door to vote, or if its gonna be absconding with the ballots after voting, but before counting.
That's what the 2nd Amendment is for: people will need to form militias in their communities to protect voters from interference by ICE.
What does that mean exactly? It sounds like as much right as we have to bear arms, we also have been given the right to form our own organized, "well-regulated" militias, and in fact, the Founding Fathers called it "necessary to the security of a free state."
Sounds like we should be putting together our own armed groups to defend the security of our free state. I'm sure MAGA would consider them terror cells.
100% yes, we need to organize armed militias, we should have been doing this for decades.
