Nope. But that was completely separate from my argument. Essentially, you lot ignored the bulk of my it. Made one liners like,”knives are legal in Canada” (who really cares? Guns, tasers, and pepper spray are. Limiting people’s method of self defense is distinguished mentally-challenged, especially for women, nor does it posit that being a woman doesn’t require some self defense in a first world nation) or attacked my character saying I am prone to radicalization and violence, or low hanging fruit such as,”you were suicidal two months ago!” Phht. So? It was argued (while mockingly I might add) that you don’t need weapons for self defense in first world nations because they had less reason for self defense. I provided a cogent rebuttal that provided evidence against that. Instead, you insult and mock me.
Like I said in my post last page, a lot of policies, liberal or conservative, start out with good intentions. In America things usually start out that way but end up making things worse for people. We have seen this time and time again. From alcohol prohibition, to the drug war, to even the prison complex or spying on citizens for security. Usually it’s caused by people who would take individual liberty from others especially for some American moralized reasoning for the sake of safety. Essentially, in a free country we have to weigh legislation between liberty and security constantly. More often, I’ll side with liberty especially regarding cases that are preventable (Cruz had police come to his home twenty times, and was reported to the FBI three times, and wasn’t arrested showing exactly how and why government fucking sucks but for some reason you want me to...rely on the government for my safety?).
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Addendum:
Liberals: Trump is a fascist!
Also liberals: WHY AREN’T GUNS BANNED YET?
Liberals: Black Lives *do* Matter! You have my support in this fight against police brutality!
Also liberals: Only the police and military should have guns!
Liberals: Being a trans woman of color is one of the least safe demographics in America! Stop killing trans women!
Also liberals: why do YOU need a gun?
And that’s just one issue.
I used to think it was just partisanship. The same partisanship I witnessed when the very people who denounced and protested the Iraq War under Bush stood silent under Obama. No, it’s ideology. All you have taught many of us since the election is liberalism, and by extension leftism, are stupid ideologies not worth considering. I was blind but now I see. I turn in my left card.
And in the midst of all of this is me constantly having to fight lefties and their fucking ideological grandstanding and myopia and not mourn this horrific lost of life.
