Grandpa won't need to go to Germany for round 3 with the NAZIs. They are right around the corner wearing MAGA hats.
-
Generous to presume that Grandpa isn't one of them.
-
Germany will go to the US to fight Nazism, sounds about right.
-
Yep, was thinking he checks the box next to the (R) on the ballot. Older,boomer generation, into guns pushes the odds strongly in that direction.
E: typo

My father died a few months before the 2016 election, but he was a grandpa in his 80s and he practically died a socialist. He would have been one of the loudest anti-Trump voices you had ever heard had he been aware enough through his dementia to be politically active. I was able to tell him that a social democrat was running for president before the dementia got too far gone and I think he was able to take it in. I'm glad he didn't get to find out that Bernie lost.

Those MAGA folks might be the more immediate threat.
-
Well, Fascism is on the rise in Germany (and pretty much everywhere else).... Makes me incredibly sad and frustrated to see what's currently happening
-
It's as if people have learned absolutely nothing from the past; not even the Germans. It's enough to make you cry.

Based antifascist grandpa
-
ITT: weirdly a lot of people assuming that Grandpa votes Republican based on nothing besides his age and love of guns
-
Dude looks and acts exactly like my great grandfather who served in the navy kn WWII. He was a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat and hated Republicans until he died in 2017.
-
... So was my great grandfather, but he was an old school Southern Democrat, he even voted straight ticket. I'd be willing to bet he wouldn't be fond of modern Democrats.
People forget that the Democrats of the early 1900s aren't the same as today. Remember that Republicans are the party of Lincoln, but I wouldn't be surprised if modern Republicans wanted to bring back slavery.

If you were in a casino, and you had to place a bet on it, we know where your bet would be as well.

If he trains to shoot Nazis, he should just pin a MAGA cap to his range target.
-
The gun mount only turns 45°.
-
But that's his best cap!
-
-
Grandpa may not like fascists. Don't make assumptions.
-
Respect, going to the range can be a family experience.
Not so sure about Germany round 3 though.
-
They're still pretty authoritarian like always. Only now it's You must be inclusive! At any cost!
-
What are you on about?
-
Those cultural Marxist woke moralists won't even let me smoke crack, hang dong, and squeeze off a few RPGs at the range anymore. What's the world coming to, man? It's just clean, harmless fun - it's not like that kind of thing ever did anyone any harm.
Thanks Obama.
-
I doubt they're nearly as nationalist or expansionist as they were back then. But I know fuckall about Germany.
-
I still see Germany as it was mid WWII
-
Except they aren't. They don't even have something you could call an army anymore.

When I was a little kid I asked my grandfather one time what it was like to “fight evil”. His response was something along the lines of “I didn’t fight evil. They were just a bunch of scared kids doing what they were told. Just like me.”
My grandfather fought in Europe, but Japan was still what kicked off WWII. So, I was super nervous about bringing home the woman that would become my first wife for the first time. Her family was from Okinawa.
When we got there he sat down at the kitchen table and talked to her for a long time. I was in and out doing stuff for the dinner, but they looked happy enough. Later that day he caught me outside and gave me a hug. He told me that she was a good woman and I’d be crazy if I didn’t marry her.
I really miss my grandfather. He was mostly a good dude.
Here’s a picture of him during the battle of the bulge. It’s from a book I have, but this picture was originally published in “Yank” magazine. The original clipping sat over his chair in the living room my entire life.

I'm jealous of Grandpa if he gets to shoot that and I don't.

Since most of you guys missed it, that's something that might be reality in a few years. A fact checking magazine found out that members of the AfD(literal Nazi Party with currently 20-30% of votes depending on the region) and rich people had a meeting where they discussed the misplacing of immigrants and political enemies to Africa. Currently our only hope is to get our lawmakers to finally start the banning process of this party. It is possible, but this pussies are afraid, since it will start an absolute shit show from their supporters.

If grandpa's still voting R, he's voting for the fascists of the 21st century.
If you want to know what you would've done living in Germany in the 1930's...
Plenty of people who go to the shooting range vote D
Hence the inclusion of the word "if ".
I think people would be surprised how many liberal gun owners are out there (including myself). The difference is we don't worship guns like the lunatics on the right.
Sup o/
It's IMPOSSIBLE to like guns and be a DEMONcrat. God gave me a gun, a full case of beer and a straight republican ticket!!!
You must be fun at parties.
Yes, boomer humor tends to be unfunny when you consider the real fact that the US is one year away from having open genocide of minorities and other “undesirables.”
Having to live armed every day because fascist shitbags are openly trying to kill you tends to suck the fun out of parties.
They're right, though.
