As long as the tyrants are on "their" "side" , 2A gun nuts love government tyranny, and the right to commit tyranny.

Huge Venn diagram overlap between 2A gun nuts and those who are totally fine with calling in the NG to police "out of control" cities like DC

I'm not really a fan of either party, so I tend to dwell on the most glaring irrefutable examples that shine through groupthink biasing.

Government agents summarily executed Breonna Taylor in retaliation for Kenneth Walker exercising his natural right to night time home defense. This was the exact scenario the 2A enthusiasts always grandstand about - "When seconds count, the police are only minutes away", "From my cold, dead hands", etc. Any yet the response from the sheer majority of supposed 2A enthusiasts? Utter fucking silence, if not outright support for the jackboots.

This is shown throughout history too. When the Black Panthers were around the NRA was strongly in support of gun control.

"From my cold, dead hands... unless you're at an NRA convention, in which case, please use these convenient lockers we've provided, or consider leaving your firearms at home."

I would point out how great of a place that would be for the government to start their supposedly planned "gun confiscation", but why would they even need to do that?
