    My objection is that all you added to the conversation was the words “European rape crisis”. Absolutely nothing more of value was added by attaching a screenshot of an idiot machine’s reply to those words.

    I’m definitely not anti-gun. While I’m largely undecided on the issues of “stand your ground” and “castle doctrine”, I don’t really see a problem with how the woman in this case handled the situation, so you’re barking up the wrong tree by replying to me with any of that.

    Furthermore:

    I think it’s unfair to bring what this woman did with her gun to the conversation.

    I don’t understand how you can say that with a straight face when the post title and news article headline is “Woman who shot man during confrontation over parking space won’t be charged”.

        Let me explain:

        I enjoy spirited driving, track days, go karting, and some other parts of cars and car culture. At the same time, I believe public transit needs to be dramatically, massively reprioritized over passenger cars. And I think trucks and SUVs should require a commercial driver’s license to legally operate.

        And I put my money where my mouth is by gladly paying the ~$1000 per year RTA excise when renewing tabs for the expensive sporty electric wagon I own, which funds Sound Transit 3, in my opinion the nation’s most ambitious and impactful transit expansion.

        I also often use the light rail to get to and from Seattle proper from the suburbs. And I very often have friends come visit whom I pick up and drop off at that same transit station.

        When I travel abroad I go out of my way to refuse taxis, much preferring to use transit or even walking when that’s a reasonable alternative.

        And at home I, at nearly all costs, avoid ever using any “rideshare” platforms.

      You’re so lost in hate and losing to facts and logic that you continue to argue in circles
