            Hot take and so easy to type out with nothing at stake for you, but I’ll reply anyway.

            With stakes like these, being stupid and trying to do something you know you’ll fail at helps nobody, and actually hurts whatever cause you would have eventually joined. When the things I am good at are needed to topple a tyrant, I’ll answer the call. I can’t help if I’m dead or locked up. I’m not a person that can get a movement off the ground and inspire enough people to join and act in a coordinated fashion that it actually succeeds. Very, very few people are capable of that. That’s why we are where we are right now.

        Yeah, but, using our guns??? What an unspeakable idea! I mean honestly. Who’s ever heard of a shooting happening in the USA???

      Pretty much, yeah. Starts out seeming like she’s trying to stop a kid from a bad decision, then instead of a bunch of toys falling down or whatever, leopards ate their face. So like any good parent, she helps them start cleaning up from the consequences of their actions.

      She’s a leftist. Stuck patching up the other person, likely without a proper follow-up unless something doesn’t heal right.

      Liberals will happilly tell them its their fault for riding a skateboard, walking when there’s a car available, or, knowing Jenny’s fam/friends from her comics, “playing with” tannerite.

        I fucking wish my neighbors would stop playing with fucking tannerite. It scares my dog half to death. Fuck tannerite and fuck people who light it on fire. Get a hobby.

        Edit: sorry, rant. Still, fuck tannerite.
