    Why are you getting so mad?

    I’m asking you questions. If it’s not what you think or what happened, then say so.

      If someone goes to jail for violence against me, I haven’t been protected from violence. That’s literally all I’m saying. Why are you putting random words in my mouth and asking me questions about that shit?

        Calm down, again.

        Without the threat of imprisonment, can you understand that more people would be willing to commit acts of violence?

          Fuck off, all day.

          The cops ain’t ever protected me from violence and are scarier to me than either the random man (the random man could be a cop, but the cop definitely is) or the bear.

          You can’t threaten me with violent men into not being afraid of violent men.

            Calm down, again.

            How come you didn’t answer my question?

            You can’t threaten me with violent men into not being afraid of violent men.

            Right. You threaten them with violent men. Or else, you need to be violent yourself. Which you can’t do because you don’t own a gun and you can’t fight.

              You asked who protects you at violence at that point.

              It damn sure ain’t a cop. Ain’t ever been a cop.
