  • It’s good that no one was hurt. Taking something from someone by force is still robbery, even if it’s a thing they’re using to harass other people. She committed a crime and should face the penalties prescribed by law. I’m not defending her. I agree she’s worse than that guy, but he committed a crime, too. They’re not mutually exclusive. It’s not a one side versus the other issue. It’s not okay to settle violent disputes outside the law. If people are angry that the government isn’t doing its job, they should direct their anger that way rather than use it to prop up someone who lost their temper over a previously nonviolent situation.

    This makes me sad.

    Also, it’s a little inaccurate as the dog would be moving at hundreds of thousands of kilometers per hour, either burning up in the Earth’s atmosphere or plowing through its surface. Also, I don’t think dogs have the ability to do this, so there’s that.







  • Sorry, I wasn’t trying to be pedantic. I really thought you were stating that I was a vegan who was arbitrarily taking the side of another vegan. I retract that, for whatever that’s worth.

    I agree that repeat offenders need to see some real consequences. It’s not okay to harass other people.

    I just feel like learning the hard way needs to be handcuffs, court dates, and then bars. If the government doesn’t step up, yeah, citizens will start taking things into their own hands, which comes with a lot of risks, especially when people disagree on what’s considered acceptable behavior. It’s only a matter of time before more significant violence occurs.
