Pretty simple problem to solve, get a conceal carry permit.
When the solution is "Vigilantism" you know the situation is fucked.
That was in response to being robbed.
I think the phrase you're looking for is “defending yourself”.
I don't live in a 3rd world country, so I guess I just don't understand the concept of needing to arm myself before leaving my house because I'm likely to need a deadly weapon while I go about my business.
No, its self defense.
In civilized countries "self defense" means you might have to punch someone. "You should have an easy way to kill someone on you at all times, and keep it hidden so they don't know" is not self defense, but clear signs of a dystopia.
Especially when it causes law enforcement to become so paranoid of the citizens they're ostensibly meant to protect, that a mere hailstone landing on the car roof immediately causes them to believe they're being fired upon.
That just sounds like a terrible time for everyone involved.
At that point, you're basically turning the constabulary into soldiers.
My back is fucked and have an 80% rating from the VA. I'm not getting into fist fights anymore.
If someone gets blown away stealing shit, the world has become a better place, frankly.
"Property is more valuable than human lives."
A statement from a person in a developed country apparently...
Fascism is so normalized :(
ah, the American solution
in a country that has more firearms than people, certainly adding MORE firearms will resolve these issues!
lemmy is full of sissy pacifists but i upvoted you.
I once had someone get in my face and say, "Are you man enough to fight me?" I responded with "I'm man enough to find non-violent solutions to my problems." Why should someone be proud of the problem-resolution method of choice for 3-year-olds?
there aren't always non-violent solutions. i accept that reality. it's nothing to be proud of, but i would be ashamed if i couldn't deal with that truth.
You're correct, there aren't always non-violent solutions, but those are often due to people who insist on engaging in violence, whether it be invading another country or taking offense at someone pulling into their driveway.
And this is why we have a term called "toxic masculinity".
