That kind of escalation is very American of you.

I'd like to remind you of the demonstration of the "bulletproof" windows of the Cybertruck and consider quite how bad things may get if Americans don't learn to live with each other without constantly laughing about "triggering" each other when the more literal trigger is on the firearms you have a constitutional right to own.

That so many are, like yourself, so blasé about the risks, was one reason I decided against migrating to the USA when I had the chance.

so you’re advocating for the “peaceful” protests to be allowed to continue? adults know this is improper behavior by the left, but we must just let it play out to avoid triggering the “protesters” who didn’t get their way in the election? why can’t they just act like adults?

This is exactly the type of thing that makes me like America. Taking risks is an essential part of life and the more open you are to sane risks, the better. The reason I don't move there is tax laws, but boy do I, as a third worlder, want a "gold card".

Not to dogpile too much here, but I think 1992's Unforgiven directed by and staring Clint Eastwood does the best here when it comes to my feeling about this comment:

Bill Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. You take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have.

Schofield Kid: Yeah. Well I guess they had it coming.

Bill Munny: We all have it coming, kid.

The acting here is much better than these simple lines as well as the lead up to them.

Suffice to say, talking about dealing death over property online is a lot easier than living with it.

That’s what real freedom it really is.

Finally I start reading some sanity over here.

so wonderful to share this country with folks like you! please consider shifting your scope outside yourself and your own personal protection, and consider the greater good at least occasionally, please.

Murdering vandals is still murder. You will be locked in a small box and deserve it.

Self defense is not murder. Definitionally. That depends on the state however. It can be murder, so take care.

It's never about shooting.
