*** Official Politics Shitposting Thread ***

[Jack Sawyer]

I don't recall Pistorious ever claiming that he was being assailed by someone larger than he is. Side note though, I think you get a little more latitude when reacting to a size disadvantage if you happen to not have legs.

Wasn't that just straight up murder anyway? Just because one time someone desperately and erroneously invoked a self-defense claim....does that mean it's no longer a legitimate claim, ever? What exactly is your point?

Also, I thought your problem was with American gun policy?

My problem is with gun policy in general.

Spoiler alert: I'm not American. You guys can kill each other all you want.

Didn't this happen in some shithole African country?

Yeaqh, from the "here be dragons" part of the map

What exactly are you describing when you say "these situations"

People who feel "unsafe", constantly "in mortal danger", making them absolutely NEED to have a gun.

The kind who feel "naked" without a gun.

The kind who would shoot someone dead if said someone shoved him to the floor. One shove means the man's life is to be taken.

The kind who didn't get the memo that the Wild Wild West is over.

These situations.

The kind who didn't get the memo that the Wild Wild West is over.

Yesterday I was walking into a Subway when I saw a guy with a pistol strapped to his hip and a T-shirt depicting an AK-47 with the caption "Come and Take It"

No one died.
