    Sack of hammers looking for a nail. They’re cowards steeped in fear. Always subscribing to that hyper-readiness doctrine spread by self-defense wingnuts that have you looking out for “bad guys” everywhere you go. Because you never know. They could win the “I defended myself” lottery when some rando argues with them on the street over a public parking spot they wanted, gets in their face and out comes the gun. Because you never know, he might have gotten violent.

      It’s hard to imagine the remorse one would be forced to carry after willingly shooting another human being.

      Even killer cops have a first murder, which must either break them or drive them deeper into abuse.

      It seems horrifying to me.

        They’re all Rittenhouse-ers. Deliberately not avoiding or walking away from escalating situations. Then they get the support from their “I woulda shot the fucker, too” network of gun nut pals.
