No, that's not necessarily what I was saying. I was replying to your comment:

but you have to be shot at to shoot "back".

That's why I said republicans aren't literally being shot at, but they're getting fucked either way. Your comment seemed to imply that republican policy only affects left leaning folks. Perhaps I misread your replies, though. If it's the other way around, leftists have also been shot at in the same way, they just didn't vote for it like republicans did
