I mean, seriously, no reasonable man wants to kill someone, especially over politics. An assault and battery charge? No big deal. A night in the tank followed by probation and anger management counseling? I can do that.
It's not about what you can do, it's about your desire to physically punish your fellow citizens for not thinking the way you do.

You think that good and moral? Like I said, I don't know why you think that's reasonable, but killing isn't.

How little is too much?

It is getting very hard to empathize for people that insist on living in the past and cannot even get them to look at the present, let alone the future.
