Look I know this is incredibly petty of me but the grouping on those targets there's a photo of is dogshit.
Anyway folks remember, a judge found that Mr Sewell was "of good character" and had a history of helping young men. Just if you're confused as to how this shit is allowed to happen.
There's one fucking thing you do to Nazis, it's self defense.
Violence begets more violence. We need conversations to bring people out of this mindset.
Intervention for people falling down into the propaganda? Sure. Once you declare yourself the enemy of almost the entire human species idk how much tolerance you deserve.
You don't accidentally decide that killing everyone who isn't a straight white cis man or a subserviant straight white cis woman is a good and worthy goal.
Like I don't care how lonely you are, that's fucked. Join a stitch and bitch don't plan a race war.
It's self-defense, and it's community defense.
I didn't look the first time I read this, but wow that's bad. I shot better with an automatic SMG the first time I held a gun in my life.
It's centrefire so probably at least 180 meters out, but the lack of consistency is hilarious considering it's almost certainly supported with a front rest and using telescopic sites
Nobody is good at something without practice, but they're displaying that because they think it makes them look like tacticool threatening shooters. Which would be cringey even if the precision was actually impressive.
It's aggravating they're such a danger because they're all such pathetic losers. They want to be completely odious people and they're not even good at it. It's almost offensively pathetic.
Exactly. When communities have organised in response, the NSN get chased up the road even when they bring out knives (see: failed attack on Gummo Cafe). But when a community does nothing, they're left with a group of a couple of dozen interstate tourists trying to seek attention and intimidate people, often with a police line protecting them. Any group of a dozen, no matter how pathetic, will make unorganised individuals less likely to do anything, and the problem only grows if they gain greater numbers to mobilise.
One of them is on record at a UK fascist conference saying that when they're outnumbered and getting told to leave, they "feel like shit, it's horrifying".
The judge is too ignorant to recognise that "helping young men" is actually grooming young men who are too lost or wrong headed to realise they are being exploited by a moronic loser.
