38. His limit doesn't matter anymore

Thu Feb 4, 2021, 01:16 PM

It also doesn't matter "if" he was a "snowflake" and "armed, entitled white guy".

Personally, I have had the misfortune of having to deal with people with extreme anger issues, and as a matter of self-preservation I did NOT escalate the situation. The way that I deal with people like that is to put as much distance between me and them as possible.

The fact of the matter is, ALL three of the people involved in this share in the responsibility. The Goys didn't deserve to get killed for being assholes, but if they had not continued to escalate the ugly situation they may still be alive.
