Double standards

Edit: my mistake, it's not visible on the screenshot, but the "i hope you get shot" didn't get removed for promoting violence, there is no mod reply to it.

    Condoning violence against things while condemning violence against people is really not such a big contradiction, especially when said thing is used to hurt people.

    Edit: Then again, a guy wanting other people to get shot probably doesn't argue in good faith anyway.

    that's the entire conservative thought process. always protect things over people. kill a homeless person? you're a hero. use counterfeit 20 dollar bill? get strangled to death. rape? be our president. trespassing? get shot to death.

    trespassing?

    This is why the last time I made a sign for a pro-choice event, I made it in the shape of a uterus with a warning sign inside it, saying, "NO TRESPASSING: Violators may be aborted."

    They value property rights, so it seems only fitting to frame access to our bodies by using their own arguments.

    That's opposite to what happened. They condemned violence against property, and condoned violence against a person
