  1. Get armed ASAP, in whatever way is feasible for you. There are several gay (or at least left-leaning, pro-gay) gun groups these days. This is critical.

  2. While you're probably too young to get a firearm, it's still crucial that you arm yourself in whatever way you can. Organize with people whom you trust.

  3. I know that it's more difficult to get armed in Canada, but I recommend it all the same.

  4. I know that arming oneself in Canada is more difficult than it once was, but even so, I highly recommend it!

  5. Not to mention the rise of the Religious Right.

  6.  @DellikkilleD  Indeed! As I just put it, placing your hope in voting, or protests that are limited to yelling at a building, is dangerously (even fatally) naive. Get armed in whatever way is feasible for you, organize with people you trust, and prepare.

  7.  @bibby659  It looks like Canada has a fairly high level of gun ownership compared to a lot of places. These are mostly sporting guns of various types.

  9. It's not half, not even close. The danger is severe, but if it was that bad, doom would already be here.
    3
  10. I know it's become more difficult, but get armed.
    3
  11. Yeah, and lots of people don't realize that the US has had (very hypothetical) plans to invade Canada over the years. I think that such plans have always included seizing Halifax, so that the Royal Navy would have a very difficult time intervening.

  12.  @alexanderball6326  Sure! I'm just recommending that you don't let your reactionaries have all the firepower. Also, in case the scenario in this video (or something similar) comes to pass, our fascists might do bad stuff on Canadian territory, if they think that their opponents are getting sanctuary across the border.

  13.  @leeanndap7020  Don't be unarmed in the face of fascists!

  14. I would hope for British and French nuclear subs surfacing in NYC and Boston harbors, offloading crates of weapons and other supplies. If full-size ships (and planes) could get to both coasts (most of which are liberal), it's over for the Trumpists.

  15.  @iana6713 True, but to what extent are they capable of doing so? Then again, there is Israel to consider, despite the levels of antisemitism on the far right.
    2
  16.  @iana6713 True, along with Israel's own anti-Christian policies/actions. Regarding strange bedfellows, that's definitely true. See the outside support in the Iran-Iraq War.

  19. Get armed ASAP, in any way that's feasible for you. There are multiple gun groups catering to LGBTetc. people, and other leftist or left-leaning groups. This is crucial.

  22.  @KyleLencucha True. I was just referring to Trudeau's recent efforts in that regard. The point is that it's good to be prepared regarding your own fascists, not to mention whatever ours might do, considering how many refugees/asylees might flee north. Also, in the event that the shooting starts, anti-fascist militants would probably hang out north of the border if necessary.
    2
  23.  @blondhairblackstrat Same here. I've been preparing for a couple of years, if you know what I mean.
    2
  24. While it's more difficult to get armed in Canada than it was, I recommend doing so all the same.
    2
  25. It's critical that you get armed (in whatever way is feasible for you) ASAP. There are numerous LGBTQ-focused gun groups these days, along with other left-leaning groups that are on your side.

  26. While it's harder to get armed in Canada these days, I recommend it all the same.

  27.  @meetontheledge1380  I'm not particularly referring to the state, but of course there's an obvious need to prevent such people from ever being in control of the state.

  61. I keep imagining French and British nuclear subs surfacing in New York and Boston harbors, offloading crates of weapons & other stuff. Hell, if big cargo ships (and planes) can get through on both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, the Trumpists are done for! The politics of the US make it clear that almost the entire Northeast and almost the entire Pacific coast will be strongly opposed to the danger described in this video.

  69. Obviously! One hopeful fact is that both Canada & Mexico will presumably not take the side of the MAGAts (even with conservative governments) once the shooting starts, and one can include the Bahamas and, of course, Cuba. Hell, I'm imagining the submarines from the UK & France (nuclear-powered subs have unlimited range) surfacing in NYC, Boston, etc. harbors and unloading crates of weapons & other goodies for the anti-fascists. If full-size cargo ships can get there (and to the whole west coast) and heavy transport planes, well, that's decisive. Who's going to side with the MAGAts? Russia is not in any shape to do so. Hungary? India under the BJP will need that equipment to commit the horrible crimes they have in mind. Brazil, should Bolsonaro come back?

  125.  @kated3165  I was referring primarily to civil strife, but there is the matter of defensive gun use. While Canada and the US have similar odds of being killed by strangers, it's better to have it and not need it. The US does have much higher rates of non-lethal violent crime. Dead men don't rape. But yeah, the most crucial part is preventing fascism, or at least being able to go down fighting. See what's happening in Burma today.

  126. No! Stand and fight! There are multiple lgbt-focused gun groups these days, and several other left-leaning groups where you are more than welcome. These are not militias, but they are ways to network and organize as you learn. Get armed in whatever way is feasible, ASAP!
