    Thanks to laws I live in a wealthy country where I can walk safely on the street anywhere any time without being in danger. No one has guns, there’s safe infrastructure, crime levels are low. But if you live in the US, a corrupt and failed state, or any other corrupt country, I get your sentiment.

      thanks to laws i live in a wealthy country

      Thats one word for ‘colonialism’. Samesies btw! And there are streets where i cant use the sidewalk bevause of all the tents, so fuck it.

      Because of the laws and their enforcers; i never feel safe. Maybe this is just a class position thing?

      guns

      Fair, but it’s not the guns that tend to scare me here.

      corrupt and failed

      Corrupt; you can explain what the fuck that means, that just seems like liberal standard english for ‘i don’t like’. Failed: nope, can tell by all the men with guns who would be cheered if they killed me, but i wouldn’t share a glass of water with in case they choked and i was disappeared forever.

      But you seem to be avoiding the shit i actually said and just scanning for things you can use in arguments that support what you already believe, rather than trying to understand what im saying. If only there were a famous politician who said you should read like that…
