Trump has declared war on the transgender community, leaving Americans to seek asylum — from America

So we've reached the minorities-flee-the-country stage. That was fast. It's getting Nazier by the minute in this motherfucker...

Again, for now, one of the critical differences between any other authoritarian government and the US is we have access to firearms. Don’t allow the jackboots take you without a fight.

There are rumblings from the administration to expand gun restrictions to trans individuals for mental health reasons. The second amendment is for everyone (2A4E). Get to know neighbors and be that Militia the Founding Fathers expected for a free State. If they can take guns from trans people, they can take guns from anyone.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

The original text of the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.

Honestly, I think it would make more sense to restrict access to guns for transpeople on the grounds that they might kill themselves.

Absolutely. I saw this headline and was rather surprised. Note the “for now” in my post. Trans people have been targeted the entire time during this administration. I said on Lemmy for trans people need to arm themselves, and I mean carry outside when they are interacting with society, because the gays were some of the first people snatched and put into concentration camps, the trans groups seem to be the first target this time.

Because I’m not some MAGAt I am personally concerned about my safety when out in public now, although my immediate area is pretty mixed racially and politically, I still live in a Trump state. How long until some kind of martial law is declared where I live? How long until some kind of political litmus test is given to be able to purchase goods? Have a job? Etc.
