      I know this is extremely hot-takey but fuck it All the good liberal Americans who think "Well if there's someone going after someone else with a knife, of course a cop has to open fire" are the reason we got into a disastrous war in Iraq

      I mean, they didn't START the war, Bush and his buddies absolutely started the war on purpose with full knowledge they were blowing up innocent people to make money and make their dicks hard But these kinds of people are the reason Bush, correctly, thought he'd get away with it

      "A bad thing is happening! Time for a HERO to come in with lethal force to restore order!" On the large scale or the small this attitude has so much blood on its hands

          I guess this is the obligatory part where I say that yes, I, personally, have been threatened with a knife by someone having a freakout It was highly unpleasant But, you know, having a cop suddenly shoot the person dead in front of me would not have made me any better off

          ("Easy for you to say, Arthur, you weren't actually stabbed" Well, sure, I suppose I wasn't killed by a stray bullet from the fourth of four shots being off-target due to recoil either, so)

          I think there was a "This Modern World" comic about this. Sadly, I can't find it because I can't remember which US intervention it was referencing. But the "joke" was going into an area with conflict and shooting everyone didn't actually make things better.

          Arthur I love you but no. We did not invade Iraq out of the goodness of our hearts. We did it because we were told there was a threat to us. It is exceedingly difficult to get the United States to play hero. We do not do it. It has happened twice in my lifetime.

          I think those are the only two times it has truly happened. In Bosnia, because Bob Dole gave Clinton political cover to do the right thing. In Libya, because we were obliged by NATO treaty. So I dunno if that really counts. Every other intervention was done for self interest.
