        Peaceful, unarmed, polite compliance 100% gets you shot. If you’re going to do something, bring something that matches what you’re up against.

          Notably, not a kids toy :)

            In America a lot of us are given firearms before middle school, unfortunately not all of us have responsible adults teaching us they’re not toys or fashion accessories. We allow ourselves access to lethal tools but teach no responsibility and give the worst ones a badge to shield them from any consequences of their recklessness and bloodthirst.
