I don’t agree that it’s “tough guy” shit at all because, again, nowhere am I saying I have the balls to do what this great man did. He’s the tough guy. I just have a righteous justice boner from his honorable actions and hope to see more of it. So I’m speaking out in favor of the actions of a true hero of the people. That is all.
Attention from the feds? What are they going to do about it? It’s not a crime to approve of the shooter’s actions. It’s not a crime to be happy somebody is dead. If they plan to investigate everybody who merely approves of this event, they sure have their work cut out for them… because it rightfully appears to be the majority of the population.
It is potentially a crime to call for people to kill other people. Yes you are probably fine. But the admin has to be the one to deal with it, and you're far from the only jabroni acting way. On my server I remove that shit immediately and warn the person. Second time they're banned.
What do you think entire previous chain of comments was about? You didn't just say you approved. You didn't just say you were happy. You said you want other people to go out and kill billionaires like he did. We literally just went over this. You said that true.
Think of the people who have to clean up your shit. Most of the admins who make all this possible are doing us a great service.
That’s right. I’m far from the only one. I’m not a general issuing orders to anybody but I am a huge fan!
Man talk about talking to a brick wall jfc
I hear everything you’re saying and I was never at any point incredulous about the Reddit ban. You appear to not hear me: I don’t fucking care. My life would be better if I didn’t spend so much time wasting away on these platforms so if I’m to be banned from here too for having a very valid and popular opinion, “okey dokey” as Luigi would say.
Then leave. Be free.
Thank you, sir. Been a real pleasure.
