I’ll amend my statement to say Atlanta, Georgia if that makes it better.

Imagine not liking the snow

The weather, mostly. Why don’t you take that back down south with you when you move there?

It’s supposed to snow here, so you’re the one out of place

move to florida

Wear the cowboy hat, they’re cool

Anyone who willingly steals from another has to be at least dimly aware of the possibility of death. A theft might cost someone their livelihood, and I won’t disparage anyone who defends that. Harming the perpetrator is not something I’m against.

That being said, this case isn’t a good example of that. You’re right in that deadly force shouldn’t be used in a situation where you’re not being actively threatened, and definitely shouldn’t be used in a pursuit like this guy did. If weapons were drawn I’d disagree with you, but after reading the article, I take back my kneejerk reaction.

Ok. How? How do we address poverty? And what do we do in the meantime while it’s being addressed? What do we say to the people who have to live this reality every day? That their solution is a decade out and they just have to suck it up until then? It’s a noble idea and one that we should be working towards now, but it does nothing to help people in a timely manner.

Do you think people just have infinite resources to replace everything that’s stolen time and time again? Break ins are expensive to fix, and that could be the difference between having enough to eat and going to bed hungry. It must be very nice to be so privileged that you’ve never had to consider this. Fuck off and go back to your gated community.

The woods, and they’re definitely there. The state says they’re not but they don’t know shit.

Gun buybacks are a ripoff. Never “sell” them to the state. In this gun market, you can get a couple hundred dollars for a hunting rifle through a vendor easily.
