I said something along the lines of:
"Wow, I haven't had a reason to smile ear to ear in a while."
Along with
"Nah, the more dead ~~corpos~~ dragons, the better."
In response to some liberal going off about how violence is never the solution, not mentioning how this murdered dipshit has personally overseen a system that perpetuates harm, suffering and death (violence) in the name of profit.
...
Good ole' civility clause.
Whats the paradox of tolerance?
.world mods have never heard of it I guess.
Archduke Ferdinand, JFK, Lincoln, the French Revolution, all come immediately to mind. The Weathermen didn't kill anybody but they did try the strategy of big violence to address societal problems. Guns have been around for a while.
Who decides that, though? Anyone with a gun can just decide on their own who's the problem? I'm saying that has a big track record of causing the problems to get even worse. There's a reason why the American revolutionaries wrote down exactly their reasons, made sure to make the good argument that they were on the right side of history and collaborated in a big group to make sure everyone was on the same page and it wasn't just a pot shots at the bad guys free-for-all.
The whole world got extremely lucky when that guy who tried to shoot Trump missed.
Jury's still out on that one. In a few years we may wish the guy had been a better shot.
Anyone with a gun who's willing to give up their own life in exchange. In that sense, no different from how it already is today.
All the incidents you point to were single, one-off events. If however there was actually a habit of people willing to give up their lives and freedom to take down a billionaire who's severely wronged them, who's to say that billionaires as a whole wouldn't actually think twice about their actions before being an asshole? The catch is that it cannot rely on any one person or small group of actors, but has to become a grassroots movement to have any chance of success.
I immediately wished he was a better shot. no need to wait for those people. we exist. hell tenacious D demonstrated this fact basically immediately.
