Knowing that Europe literally has a problem with its soccer audiences making monkey noises at black athletes makes this particular bit of condescension all the more ridiculous.

Idiots and assholes exist everywhere. At least ours don't have guns.

[–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com -5 points 4 months ago (8 children)

Yeah, they use knives instead.

This isn’t the flex you think it is.

Wasn't intended to be. But evil people will find a way to do evil.

[–] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but one of those things is capable of a lot more damage in a much shorter amount of time.

You’ll also have a hard time knifing people from a window with a wide vantage point.

Knives are dangerous, and evil people will be evil. But should we just hand out rocket launchers on the side of the road because knives exist?

It’s an absurd suggestion, obviously. So is “knives exist so guns are fine.”

You keep putting words in my mouth so this conversation is over.

Care to explain what you meant then? Because the most I did was paraphrase what I understood to be your stance.
