    They are not the same as a comment that I just read that says, and I quote, “Yes we’ve had first CEO assassination but how about a Second?”

    If you think they are the same then you are part of the problem.

      no, you are. the quote you gave is infinitely less harmful than any advocacy for war or cops.

      wow, they called for a second murder? of the worst people on earth who contribute nothing to society but always do great harm? including auto-denying sick people to let them die or otherwise suffer?

      I can tolerate killing thousands of people, but I draw the line at 2 demons!

      Calling for increased police and war budgets is calling for the deaths of thousands. You’re right- they’re not the same. The pro-war and pro-cop are far more violent.

      No, you…

      (they aren’t the same, a state’s monopoly on violence, which they inflict on their own, and other, citizens with impunity, and which you are not only consenting to, but defending, is infinitely worse)
