It’s my god-given right as an American to blast those fuckers out of the sky with a 12 gauge, and you can’t tell me any different

    I just wish Americans would act as tough as they talk online

    Americans have free speech, not free ammo.

    Do they really have free speech though? I was gobsmacked seeing how a former US Army veteran spent a month in jail and lost his job for posting a meme of Charlie Kirk with one of his quotes. You wouldn't get locked up for posting something like that in Canada.

    You would in Britain though. Also, free speech rights will never block individual local tyrants from doing their thing before higher powers intervene. It just means they will intervene. Hopefully. Freedom of speech is definitely dropping in the states
