@sarahdoingthing Open carry. Much less likely to get groped.
@simplic10 All in favor of that. But to me, calling cops = bearing weapons, but less effective, less responsible & more dangerous.

@simplic10 Demanding criminal laws (therefore, ultimately, cops with guns) enforce your comfort is achingly privileged.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@St_Rev@simplic10 Less effective is a feature. Deferring responsibility also a feature. Not sure about relative danger. -
@GrumplessGrinch@St_Rev I don't follow. -
@simplic10@St_Rev If your goal is limiting violence in the public square you don't really want super-effective cops. -
@St_Rev@simplic10 Violent crime is at an all time low.The "anarcho" half seems to be false. -
@GrumplessGrinch@simplic10 I know. Yet perception of crime is sky-high and trust is at a historic low. The whole framing is fucked up. -
@GrumplessGrinch@simplic10 Like an autoimmune disease of fear is going around. People don't experience real threats so amygdala goes nuts. -
@GrumplessGrinch@simplic10 Fear antigens attack ideas that are associated-with but actually protective-of danger, like bearing arms. - 5 more replies

@St_Rev Ya. I have vague impression that our cops are pretty good. And fairly low crime. But my new neighborhood has high burglaries.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
