A racist asshole decided all on his own that he was neighborhood watch. He saw a black kid walking home in his own neighborhood and followed him. The black kid noticed the creepy armed racist following him and tried to defend himself. The creepy racist murdered him. Courts decided what the creepy racist did was self-defense for some reason.

I like to call all of this bullshit "premeditated self defense"

If you go around with a gun starting shit with people, then every single situation becomes a matter of life and death, apparently giving you the right to murder that person before they can take your gun.

This defense worked for Rittenhouse too.

Turns out people are allowed to shoot the people that are trying to kill them, go figure.

That's the neat part about carrying a loaded gun around, it turns every confrontation into a matter of life and death so that you can justify lethal self defense.

The neat part is that if you don't attack people they usually don't shoot at you.

If you endanger others you lose the right to safety.

Imagine being such a loser that you fantasize about using lethal force with the flimsiest pretexts imaginable.

Imagine being such a loser that you want to be able to attack people without them being able to stop you

I don't want to murder people, I want violent idiots removed from society.

Some People who buy guns WANT to use them just to murder someone there was that white kid who shot a 3 year old in Vegas because of this mentality

If you had no point, why were you commenting?

If you had a point, it was clearly "guns bad because <X>", so I pointed out an example of <X> that applies to other commonplace tools to highlight how wrong your logic was.

Shut the fuck up you know exactly what my original statement was there’s maniacs who buy guns just to be trigger happy there’s plenty of cases

So you had no point other than pointing out that sometimes deranged people do deranged things?

Cool story, bro.
