    And from what I’ve seen, narrowing it to glorifying violence is nothing more than an attempt to terminate the discussion altogether.

      Yeah, that may be true. Some people have their minds made up and they somehow think any further discussion is somehow a weakening of their position or something like that.

      I like to think that any fear of discussion simply means you’re afraid your reasons aren’t sound and you don’t want to question the reality that you may be acting on emotions rather than reason. I think you can definitely have this discussion rationally and still end up supporting what happened.

        Oh I know you can have this conversation rationally and come out supporting the shooter.
