    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.

        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.
