They kill over 50,000 dogs a year. Among The 1000+ (up to 5000) people they kill, half of them are unarmed and not resisting.

A long time ago, another country had a similar problem, the Weimar Republic which was patrolled by Freikorps militias who took and killed what they wanted, and it was better to comply than see a massacre in your village. It'd be from these that the Sturmabteilung and Schutzstaffel would be recruited in the early days of NSDAP.

The second amendment in the US has never been extended to marginalized groups, and when the (successfully ~~anarcho-capitalist~~ anarcho-communist!) Black Panthers rose in the 1960s to protect black neighborhoods and engage in mutual aid, FBI engaged in an assassination campaign to hunt down and murder its leaders and theorists.

Edit: BPP were anarcho-communist, not an-cap. I'm a derp and was typing on mobile. Sorry all.

ETA: Huh. Raccoon doesn't show strikeout text.

Wait, you're the first person I see claim that the black panthers were anarcho-capitalist - usually the claim is anarchists. What makes you say that?

[–] LazyCorvid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 7 months ago

The black panthers definitely weren't anarcho-capitalists.
