Splattering lives is okay,but shattering such windows is the promotion of violence? Honestly? 🔨

Another reason to stay out of the usa. Not just anecdotal, we're talking about a country where walking on a public street can be illegal, and people who do are sometimes called a slur.

Because cities aren't for people to live in, they're for cars to drive trough

My favorite retort to those advocating for running over protesters:

If it's OK for you to run over protesters blocking your path on the highway, it's also OK for me to set fire to your car if you park it in the bike lane.

Yeah, but to know which car to burn down you'd have to see them run over you and by that time ur dead.
