I don't get it. Please explain. All I see is just four panels of a woman standing there. What's the joke?
-
Honestly it's so contextual I don't think a single person seeing this would read it the exact same way same way in terms of determining motivation and meaning.
Does OP think guns can't be self defense tools? Are they implying they want to use it offensively instead? What does the original author intend?
Is it just about a trans person challenging their previously held beliefs?

She sees the sign
She considers the training
She comes to her senses and realizes what a bad idea owning a gun would be
She feels bad for having considered itIt's one of those common human reaction things, Oh yeah, I have done that.
-
- She can't have it, because guns banned for transgenders
-
Why would it be bad? The right wing wants trans people dead, we need to defend ourselves
-
I don't want people carrying guns on the street. But I want even less to be the only one without a gun in the street.
Luckily, I live in a country with proper gun control.

Yeah no idea
Must be something I'm to Australian for

I'm American and haven't the foggiest. She realizes something in the third panel, but I'm not sure what that is.

Armed minorities are harder to oppress

“Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary”

Can somebody reupload the image at a non-feddit.org host? Feddit is incredibly annoying in that it geoblocks most of Asia.

Is this Loss?

I've got this pin on nearly every bag I carry.

Well the store next doors supplies offensive handgun training. Jokes on you
-
Are we not going to mention at all that the lost cat turns into AI scribbles??

No, because it doesn't, it's a clearly deliberate regression.

Was the handgun being defensive?

What stops this:
Learn to arm yourselves.

Exactly. When you see ICE approaching a house ... carpet bomb the entire neighbourhood!
-
The whole country, even!

Mar-a-Lago is one singular building, with one owner in house. There’s not a single “neighbourhood” there, or in any of the fash-cilities.
My timeline has been extremely clear on what Ameridumbs need to do to bluecoat their coup.
I am still waiting on operation «melt points» to see a single liberation.
Get to demo! Chop-chop!

There are some very accepting organizations dedicated to teaching self and community defense. One such example, but I'm sure there are others: https://socialistra.org/about/
https://www.pinkpistols.org/
These guys got you covered.
There are a lot of SRA (Socialist Rifle Association) chapters that have classes available. Worth it to look up to see if they have instructors or instructors they recommend if nothing else.
If not classes, some homie who's an ex combat vet who's not certified because they don't want to give the feds or the NRA any money.
I've paid the fascists for their classes and its nothing special. I can save you a Sunday and several Friday afternoons and at least $300 in training with these blog posts I wrote.

Hi! Moderate here, I've had a lot of interactions with both left and right leaning establishments. The fact if the matter is that money is money. If you pay them to train you then they will. That being said, there isn't much they'll teach you that you can't learn for free. If you plan on carrying a handgun you might have to take a course, but youtube can teach you the same or better info. Shooting is a pretty fun hobby if you can find a cheap range.
So maybe don't go in with a battle jacket with every flag patch on it, just like dress how you would for work and just sign up for the course. A real 2a advocate might think you're going to hell, but they absolutely believe in your right to defend yourself on this earth with a gun. And you should learn, even if you decide not to daily carry, knowledge is still power. A gun is a force multiplier that can absolutely change the outcome of a situation in which your survival is at stake. That, and shooting is fun, pistols, rifles and shotguns all.
So aside from the absolute bullshit that is 'hide who you are for stupid fuckers' being a terrible way to live your life, my mind immediately jumps to a person's voice, which can't be masked on the fly, so that plan is going to fall apart a few seconds after they walk in the door, unless they have gone through extensive voice retraining...
But circling back around, absolutely fuck hiding elements of yourself just because others are dumbasses. If we all did that, think of the dumbest motherfucker you have seen in Walmart, then give them all the power and respect by not engaging and rolling over like a removed.

You know what they say . . . It's all fun and games until a kindergarten gets shot.
I’m sorry, but shooting up a school or a church does not qualify as reasonable self-defense
Good thing nobody except you mentioned doing so.
Cool, so republicans, especially Christian ones, should get their guns taken, right?
