Well said yeah. There are definitely some nuances in the way to defend yourself in a country where everyone is armed to the teeth, and a whole lot of cynicism given the circumstances. My words are aspirational at best, I get that. In reality, I’m saying what I’m saying because I share your concerns for your people.
We’re currently enjoying a right wing government with a few Trump inspired figures, skyrocketing cost of living, rising crime, and very disconcerting xenophobic and quasi racist musings coming out of certain public figures. But blissfully and blessedly we’re a long way away from the chaos your brothers and sisters are going through now and the hell that may be soon to come.

Yeah. My whole life it’s felt like I showed up at the end of the party. The older I get, the more I realise what a mess was made.
