    So yeah you are free to view me as domesticated or whatever foul word for weakness you have ready to go, but to me you are same except one of us is aware of what life is actually like.

    Oh yes, I have a very descriptive epithet for you: Future victim

    I don’t have the privilege of living somewhere with a sub-minute police response, and even if I did, the police have no obligation to protect me. When seconds count, a bullet is faster than dialing 911.

      Future victim

      Which one of us allows themselves to be in a position where we need a gun? Rather than planning to rise to an occasion, simply stop the occasion from occuring. I get vaccinated so I don’t have to depend on my immune system pulling off a win.

      don’t have the privilege of living somewhere

      Think I found your problem. I grew up in a village of 400 people btw. At one point my school was slightly over 10% me+siblings+cousins. If I can manage to overcome that I am betting you can as well. My wife had it a lot harder, I have been multiple times to her developing world farming village.

      When seconds count, a bullet is faster than dialing 911.

      Who made the guns so widely available that seconds do count?

        It’s not even worth responding to your non-arguments. Even your vaccine analogy is garbage because vaccines are like arming your immune system to defend against viruses.

        And GTFO with your bootstrapper rhetoric.
