Good. If you try to break into someone else’s shit, you should reasonably expect to get shot at.
It is worrying to me that the supposedly highest trained security guards in the world couldn’t actually hit their target. I would expect better in terms of both accuracy and fire discipline.
It is also worrying that if a citizen like you or me tried to defend ourselves and our property in the same way in much of these nation including DC, we would go to jail. I think we deserve the same rights as ‘important people’.

In many other contexts this would be downvoted to oblivion on Lemmy.
Exactly right. If the article says “home owner shoots armed robber attempting to kidnap children” you’d have people losing their minds about guns and violence. Also people would be upset that the person owned a home…
Imagine living in a country where people are so obsessed with guns that everybody has guns and everyone is a potential threat or one insult away from doing a mass shooting. It’s gotten so bad that America has become a parody of Grand Theft Auto, where you can actually feel safer as a character in a video game that glorifies violence and crime.
Your nation has gone beyond ape shit.
There isn’t another developed nation in the world where gun violence is as big a problem as in America.
This ISN’T NORMAL.
Glad this was just a stupid GTA cosplay and not something much worse.
