I wonder how frequently right wingers bring guns when they’re at counter protests…
NewsHour on
President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he did not think Alex Pretti, the second U.S. citizen to be killed by federal forces in Minnesota this month, was acting as an assassin.
“You can’t have guns. You can’t walk in with guns,” the president said in response to a question from PBS News’ Liz Landers, reiterating a talking point from the administration that Pretti should not have brought a legally carried handgun to the scene — a position that has infuriated gun rights advocates.
The president’s response amounted to a softening of his administration’s tone on the Jan. 24 shooting, after several of his top aides, including White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, described Pretti as a threat to federal agents.
Following Pretti’s death, gun rights groups have released statements, saying that it’s legal to carry firearms during protests or while exercising First Amendment rights.
Landers asked Trump about the Second Amendment, which protects the right to keep and bear arms.
“It’s a very unfortunate incident,” Trump said, shortly before departing the White House for a planned speech in Iowa.

Conservatives have always been for gun control. It’s just that their definition of gun control is that conservatives are the only ones who are allowed to have guns. If a member of a group conservatives hate shows up with a gun, then that person is obviously a criminal up to no good and it is OK for conservatives to gun that person down in the street like a dog.

This is the Republican president making one of his notorious “jokes” intended to test the water for some policy he would like to implement. It’s how he does it: make a comment that nobody would approve of, have his people call it a joke. Wait a couple of days and repeat the joke. Do it again. Watch for reactions. Once the joke is well established, wonder out loud if it wouldn’t be a good idea after all. Then implement the idea.
So now we know that trump would like to disarm the population. I suppose he doesn’t like an armed population because it is an obstable to tyranny.

Where did he “Walk in”?
He was in a public place.
All legal. “Should” doesn’t matter.
He was disarmed and incapacitated when he was shot 10 times.
Even if it wasn’t a legal gun, that’s still murder.

And if you dare have a look at the conservative sub, you’ll see the first post is of a Minuteman with the title “shall not be infringed” under him.
In that post you’ll see nothing but comments about how you can be “a gun owner, but not stupid with a gun”..which tells me that, if I’m to believe these aren’t all bots, are real people who have bought the initial DHS line that Pretti had drawn his firearm and tried to use it against ICE agents. These are the same people who claim to have seen the videos. There are zero comments about what **Their** president just said, and I doubt there will be..
Down a few posts, there is vigorous debate about John Fetterman asking that Noem be fired. They seem to have no idea why she should be, and now suddenly hate Fetterman again. There is one person claiming he’s getting threats from other conservatives for being a traitor to Trump because he dares to say Fetterman is right. Welcome to the MTG club, my man!

This is the doublethink that Orwell described in *1984*. It’s when a person believes two totally contradicting viewpoints simultaneously. To believe every American’s god-given right to own a firearm and to protect themselves shall never be infringed, but to also believe that owning a weapon is justification for murder. It simply cannot be both, but to them, it is.
