Unlike how he serves them.

We can forgive the sketchy arithmetic, clearly, like me, you didn't benefit from the middle east finest schools.

I see one of the insurrectionists pardoned by Trump got shot dead by Police at a traffic stop after an altercation.

I mean it's not like they didn't have form for not respecting the law, did their brief incarceration teach them nothing ?

Trump's message in letting them out was that the law didn't apply to them. Presumably the police officer disagreed, in this instance.

Out of the insurrectionist context, this paragraph is just chilling enough anyway as an indictment of USA

Indiana State Police said the traffic stop led to the deputy attempting to arrest Huttle, but that he resisted and struggled with the officer. This “altercation” led to the deputy firing his gun and killing Huttle.

Gun culture in the US is crazy. But Americans think our gun control is equally crazy. It's very much a foreign land.

Baffles me why they think it's crazy.

The only perceivable argument I've heard is because our knive crime is out of control, yet there's is actually worse anyway.

I agree, if they adopted our laws and managed to take away all the guns they would just use knives

You can't kill nearly so many people with knives.
