I really don't think so. IMO it is a bunch of BS. It appears to me gun supporters believe if they don't feel the government is doing an adequate job, it gives them the green light to take the law in their own hands and start acting like John Wick.
They basically have said, if the government attempts to take away their guns, they have the green light to fight back....
This isn't supporting law and order. Stop with the charade.
Good thing that this was just your opinion then.
Because that's in no way a representation of reality.

It is supporting law and order. If the police will not enforce the law then vigilantes will form and do it.
No society can last in anarchy. If one side doesn’t respect law then the town will have to settle for them fearing a bullet
And the truth comes out......
Are you shocked this finally happened after months of violent riots and looting?
It is. When Asians where getting discriminated in March a lot of Asian leaders were demanding people in their community to rise above the hate and be civil.
MLK Jr, Nelson Mandela, etc preached civility.
Gun supporters preach a dumb quote from Charlton Heston "from my cold dead hands."
Some 17-year old murderer with a long gun ar-15 out in public was treated with more respect by the cops than a defenseless black man. Think about that.
I really hope that sinks in your conscious.
Which defenseless black man? Youre just making this stuff up
Do you understand what "law and order" means?

Derrick Johnson, president and CEO of the NAACP, issued the following statement regarding the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a Wisconsin father of three:
“The appalling and heinous shooting of Jacob Blake is yet another stark reminder of the free-willing atrocities committed against Black people at the hands of those entrusted to maintain public safety. This recent shooting comes on the heels of civil unrest that has caused the world to take heed to a long-standing pandemic of systemic racism and injustice.
The unfortunate and sobering reality is that Black men and women are under perpetual fear of having their life taken from them at any given moment while engaging with police officers. In a country where the phrase, “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” epitomizes “unalienable rights,” Jacob Blake is another prime example, in a succession of individuals, that the promises of this nation ring hollow for too many to be meritorious.
At this moment, the work of the American people is clear and unquestionable; we must continue to fight, organize, and mobilize against police brutality, and state-sanctioned killings at the hands of law enforcement. While the visions of Jacob Blake, Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and countless others play over and over in our minds, we must not grow weary until we’ve achieved police liability and substantive change is realized. If there was ever a time for us to unite against a common threat to the existence of Black people, it is now.”
Our thoughts and prayers are with Jacob Blake, his family, and friends, as he continues to fight for his life and to return to his children.

because the guy died of a fentanyl overdose when cops were trying to arrest him.Have you been paying attention? Again, why is BLM protesting????
Yes I watch them and I hear them lie over and over and over again wallets proven that they lied you just pretend they didn't. They lied about George Floyd he lied about trayvon Martin they lied about Michael Brown they lied about the Wendy's guy, every single chance they getAre you watching the news and seeing cops shoot and kill defenseless black men?
Come on indeed you're talking about the fake news.Come on!

That's no different from your own position.
If you were home and some criminal forced his way through your front door, you would take the law into your hands and do whatever it takes to prevent him from harming you. You would go full John Wick and use whatever weapons you had in order to stop the intruder.
You are comparing apples with oranges.
How so? You claimed gun supporters believe that if government isn't providing adequate police protection, it gives them the green light to "take the law into their own hands".
I can come up with endless hypothetical examples where you would behave exactly the same way, so how am I comparing apples to oranges?
Why don't we just end the needless killing of unarmed black men?
The only way to do this 100% successfully is to instruct the police not to engage with Black men.
Why aren't unarmed white men being killed by cops an issue?
This is like arguing why it is okay for a minority to call a white person a cracker but not okay for a white person to call a black person the n-word.
Minorities do not have the power or any sort of privileges
Stop playing the victim. You aren't one.
