    Fuck Portland. I might take an interest in a block radius around my apartment. But of course if I hurt some pure-hearted freedom fighter while preventing him from doing a bit of arson and looting in the name of social justice, I immediately out myself as a white supremacist istaphobigot.

    Screeching in the face of someone while they laugh at you doesn’t count, princess. No matter how you embellish the story afterwards.

    Ah, but I wasn't actually threatening you, was I?

    Words on the internet can't hurt you.

    Other fun fact:
    Having a deep voice and howling like a wrestler is still screeches, and being screechy.
    Having the wind at your back of a hypocrite culture doesn't actually help you.

    Rittenhouse actually did some murders, but he's not a little bastard.
    Because property is worth more than people to conservatives.
    The suffragettes knew it in their day.
    So they busted shit up.
    Women can vote now.

    A bag of toothpaste and brushes isn't a threat, and "I feel threatened" isn't gools.

    I conceal carry because trans people have died at the hands of people like you. You can laugh all you want behind your keyboard, but if you ever approached me the way you interact with me here, I'd absolutely consider you a threat, just as I'd consider anyone wearing Klanner's robes a threat.

    Well you're off my Xmas list.

    If you feel a threat, carrying isn't a solution.

    When have you ever been physically threatened?

    Thanks, person who isn't in this situation. I will give your advice due consideration.

    Oh, and because it will persist otherwise: I haven't been threatened for being trans, as I hide it where I live. I *have* been threatened for being "effeminate," and for wearing colorful clothing. Several of the people who have threatened me were open carrying.

    To add:

    I live in a deeply conservative part of the country side. My neighbor is a former Sheriff's deputy who carries several guns on him at any one time, and has much larger and more powerful ones in his home. He is an ardent Trump supporter. I have spent years working on him to pull him away from that, but he always goes right back. He's openly anti-black, anti-immigrant, anti-LGBT, and he hasn't the slightest idea I'm pansexual and trans.

    So, yeah, I'd be a fool not to protect myself.

    A gun isn't a solution.

    If I felt my life endangered by others carrying, I would avoid them.

    Outside of Walmart, where does that happen?

    I don't know if Amaris has been threatened, and honestly I don't care. She has the right to conceal carry if she is concerned about a threat to her person.

    That being said, this is the normal bullshit I see from the far left these days. Yes, UA was being a dickhead. No, he's not the one who started talking about physical violence. That was the people telling him there are consequences for his free speech, and that included other people doing violence to him. Him responding to it then was mocked and met with more talks about violence, including shooting.

    Because far too often these days all that matters is who said something, not what was said. Calling UA a dickhead and ganging up on him for his views is par for the course. Intimating you want violence to him is not. Saying that he was talking about doing violence to others not in that context is a lie. Read it again.

    Why does every single community silo themselves every single time? Guess what guys - Wordforge is not any more representative of the real world now than it was when the neo-nazi was the most popular poster here.

    UA has nothing to worry about. They're just words. It's not like I'm going to show up to his home and threaten him with a gun. That would be absurd, and @Uncle Albert is fine with this exchange.

    Statistically, carrying makes you more likely to die from guns.

    People are walking around your home with guns on display?

    Yes, Steve, they are. It's one of several reasons why we have security cameras now.

    Take this. UA fucking REVELS in being an asshole. He's good with it, that's his personality. I don't agree with everything he's said here but I very much disagree with it's OK to talk about threatening him. And start by saying 'I was only talking about if it might happen in theory' is sachrine bullshit. It's exactly what those people who threaten people online do.

    I also understand that not every single thing he says fits into category A or B. He is very much right in that. Reducing someone to your preconceived notions is strawmanning, and it's done here regularly.
