Yeah I've never understood the "what!? their prison cells aren't grotesque!?@!?" logic

The thing is, it's a shame for this robber who lost his head. He was a careless man who wound up dead. He wore his sin like it's some kind of prize. Too many lies, too many lies.

It's really not, and if it is for anyone then it's not guns and cops and robbers that's the problem anymore.

don't worry @paerarru, if we were at a wingstop together and this guy came in and you were scared for your life i would shoot him in the neck to save you
you're good, you can just stand in the corner and wring your hands and i'll protect you

Oh no, don't YOU worry and trouble yourself on my account, I'm not a millionth part as terrified of death as you are, you can just let me die if it's THAT much of a fucking issue for you. Maybe try being just a little less scared and leave your safety blanket home with mommy?

Yeah, this topic didn't get any less shocking. The dumbass gun laws of America turned what could be a robbery into an armed robbery, then a man got shot and died.

Whatever spin you put on that, how is it NOT tragedy.

I'm originally from England and there's stories from there of people going into stores and restaurants with knives or other weapons and they've been taken out by passers-by or witnesses. The guy has gone to jail. The other guy has been called a hero. And no one has fucking died. No one is a murderer.

There is is, justifying murder because someone MIGHT do something.

No compassion, no innocent until proven guilty. What point is there to a justice system if everyone gets to decide for themselves if someone else is fit to be a part of society?

The robber might have been a guy who was desperate to feed his family. Or not.

The shooter may have been a guy who walks around packing, just looking for an opportunity to kill someone. Or not.

Who cares about the actual story though, right? BOOM, HEADSHOT, LMAO.

Yeah what a brave humanitarian you are. Try weaning yourself from your infant fears, grow a real pair and vote for gun control if you're so concerned for other people's lives.

I don't even go to fucking Wingstop, I like pork.

@paerarru So you are so anti-gun that you would rather let a criminal kill you than be saved by someone else shooting said criminal? Is that what you're getting at here?

Yes, I'm just not doing it at all.

Then again it's not so much a matter of stances, it's a matter of looking at things. The failure to look at it another way is precisely what I'm referring to.
