Just because you’re not a fighter doesn’t mean you’re right.
Did your dad stop because you didn’t fight back?
I’m sorry, but you sound more like my older brother than anything. Guess which one of us didn’t get beat as a teen at some point?
A bully doesn’t stop just because you’re peaceful. A psychopath doesn’t go easier on people because there’s less resistance. Even you tried violence - you think incarceration isn’t a form of violence? If you say no, you’d be saying when you got locked up in a room, that was a peaceful action then. But we both know that’s not the case, is it? Even you tried putting the fucker in a jail - just not with your own violence but with the backing of the state.
Trump nearly getting shot didn’t win him the election. Running Kamala as his opponent did, and I had told my family as much back then (this is assuming there were no electoral shenanigans).
And whether Charlie Kirk lived or died, there already has been violence against others. That’s what ICE is. That’s what the gay voice actor for King of the Hill getting killed was. That’s what Kyle Rittenhouse did.
The government is run by people like your dad. Was your dad someone who would change if nothing was done against him? What if now, you made it so he could avoid legal consequences too? What if he knew the police, the courts, etc would never touch him?
That’s what you’re dealing with.
I don’t blame you for being a coward, and thinking being peaceful will maybe make things better. Not everyone has that fire in them. My brother didn’t, and my mother didn’t for the longest time either. Some people do, some don’t. That’s not your fault. You don’t have to support those willing to fight back.
But you sure as hell don’t get to say it’s wrong for them to do so either. They fight so people like you, hopefully, one day, don’t go through the shit you did. They kill if they have to because there’s no alternative left. Had they done so much, much sooner, things wouldn’t have been as bad as they are. But the bullies have convinced the majority that docility will make things better - because having no opposition is what they want.
