    I’ve been through the process. They forced a guilty plea out of me by holding me indefinitely. There’s nothing right about any of the times law has come after me. You can dress it up pretty all you like. I shouldn’t have to be helpless when facing unfair treatment and conditions I cannot mentally tolerate.

      Yeah it’s a shame you didn’t have your gun when you were held by the police indefinitely. Surely, if you had murdered a few cops they would have let you go.

        Nah, they’d have killed me and that’s better than being subjected to their jail conditions. If also have killed them and maybe they will be less inclined to push random innocent people so far afterwards. I feel no empathy for them after what they’ve put me through. None.

          Of course! Because no one is allowed to be a police officers anymore other than the ones already on the job, so if you kill one, their numbers go permanently down! That cop you kill to stop them from pushing random innocent people around will never be replaced by another cop. You would definitely have done something very useful.

          So far thinking that guns will solve this problem has ingrained an “us vs them” attitude, led to no-knock raids and militarization of police. How’s that working for you?

      A gun isn’t going to solve that problem, buddy, unless your intention is to commit suicide by cop.

        That is my intention. If I win by some miracle, that’s ok too. My point isn’t just gun for me though. Gun for everyone!

          Oh your point is well-taken and masterfully demonstrated, my friend. Guns for every unhinged whack-a-doodle among us. Go 'murica!

        I’m not gonna give you identifying details random stranger. The story is obviously much longer than that, but I don’t expect anyone to believe me and it’s not worth the effort to type out on my phone at work.

          Well hey man, if your goal was to make a bunch of strangers think that you’re a crazy and probably dangerous jackass, then congrats because you’re fucking nailing it right now.

          If your goal was anything other than that, you should probably either take more consideration about the things you say or at the very least be willing to explain or elaborate on the mad ramblings flowing from your frothing mouth.

          But you do you do, I guess. Just preferably far as fuck away from me.

          Even if stipulate to your inference that you were treated wrongly in many ways, attempted murder is not a reasonable response to most of them.

          We’d all be cheering for you to get a huge settlement, for any illegal cop activity to be severely punished (for real), for fame and notoriety over a victory for the little people …. But instead you come across as someone unstable enough that you should not have access to firearms.
