Well, first of all...I don’t live in Vermont.

Go inhale a mouthful of wasp spray and let me know how it works for you.

I cannot believe the number of Freepers posting about wading into a riot and openly discussing how to harm people.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. They are the same morons bitching about staying home for the past month.

So sure, go towards the riot. I am sure YOU can save the world.

“Go inhale a mouthful of wasp spray and let me know how it works for you.”

Go inhale a bunch of bleach and figure out how well that works. Or paint.

But who opens their mouth and breathes deeply when someone sprays something at them? Hmmm?

My point is that it is no more a “deadly weapon” than any number of things you ought to avoid inhaling - if you can. Good luck convicting anyone of attempted murder via wasp spray. Your legal advice didn’t match reality.

“So sure, go towards the riot. I am sure YOU can save the world.”

I have never argued for seeking out trouble, and not many Freepers have. But if you drive a truck across country, and protesters close down an Interstate Highway, and you are forced into more protestors on city streets, what would YOU do? If someone tries to climb in your truck (or car if you are on vacation - something I’m sure you think is WAY to dangerous to do due to viruses!) - how can you defend yourself?

In Arizona it is easy: Carry a gun with you. Constitutional carry in Arizona. But in California or Oregon? Discussing self-defense is appropriate.

“They are the same morons bitching about staying home for the past month.”

Yep! People who believe in self-reliance and freedom, and who do not believe in mindless submission to the same IDIOTS who run these Democrat-infested states! And we discuss self-defense. OMG! What a bunch of weirdos we are! We all ought to live in our basements for the next couple of years until President Biden solves all the problems....

It is cathartic. Better to vent than to do these things. My sense is that people who vent, vent. People who do, don’t vent. Anyone who wants to do would have to be nuts to vent on some anonymous forum. It’s the kind of thing you’d be wise to confide only in people you have known for decades, and communicate only to people with whom you are going to do these things.

There’s a huge web of conspiracy theories surrounding the guy who went nuts in Vegas, because he never talked about what he was about to do. But the likely reason he never said anything was because those who do, do, whereas those who vent about doing, and actually try to organize something like that over the internet with anonymous helpers, are arrested, and never get to do. No larger conspiracy required.
