  • I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

I have no moral or ethical problems with what the victims did.
I do however fully understand the potential legal implications of such actions in the US.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

my inner "bad guy" would never use a gun to hurt someone in anger when its much easier to accidentally
hit with a car. 
I'm going to feature that in a short story someday

Ditto.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.

People are getting fed up. Expect to see more and more of this here as well.

Yes, that. 

Another lesson from this is there are cameras everywhere.  Not sure what to do about that, but assume you are on camera if you are on a public street.

 I feel guilty for chuckling, its funny to see common robbers getting a comeuppance but at the same time its unprincipled to delight in such things.
 I wonder if they will stop being criminals?
