>in addition to police shooting and killing civilians
If you look at actual statistics you know why it keeps happening. The chance to be shot if you don't act or live like them is miniscule.
>You’re not afraid to walk to your local for a pint and be shot in the head by a cop I suppose, right?
No "just" scared to open my mouth or defend myself or family with the little to none legal weaponary left that still exists from foreign attackers imported against our will which are excluded from such laws.

- testfrequency 1mo agoSafety is one topic, but this person is also discussing censorship and corruption. As much as I like visiting China for leisure, I could personally never live there. I agree the healthcare and safety are great in China though. It’s the same reasons I could never live in places like Dubai or Singapore. Safety is not a #1 priority for me in the places I choose to live.
- dawn3727 1mo agoWhat do you consider to be the most important factors regarding where you live?

- akimbostrawman 1mo agoThere obviously does not exist such a country and neither country are working towards it. I rather worry about being shot during a traffic stop if I give them a reason such as acting out than simply opening my mouth.
- KaiserPro 1mo ago> No "just" scared to open my mouth or defend myself or family with the little to none legal weaponary Bitch please. Firstly the _victim_ was foreign not the attacker. second, you are well within your rights to use reasonable force. Sometimes that involves chasing an attacker down the street with a cricket bat and beating the shit out of someone. > foreign attackers imported against our will which are excluded from such laws. mate, thats not way to talk about the scottish (they too are allowed to carry knives as part of thier national costume) but if you lived here, you'd probably know that.
- akimbostrawman 1mo ago>Bitch please I could literally be arrested for what I said, can you claim the same in the US? >chasing an attacker down the street with a cricket bat and beating the shit out of someone. Someone literally got arrested for buying a baseball bat couple days ago... >thats not way to talk about the scottish Somehow they aren't included in the law exclusion or are part of the group doing disproportionate amounts of stabbings (or rape), curious.
- foldr 1mo agoYes, the same can happen in the US. In general, no country has successfully constructed a magical force field that prevents its police officers from ever arresting people for stupid reasons. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/31/tennessee-man-jailed-charlie-kirk-meme https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/31/tennessee-ma...
- akimbostrawman 1mo agoCharges (rightfully) dropped and not prosecuted because of the first amendment, which does not exist in the UK or the EU. "Hate" Speech laws are a blanked go to jail card. Anything interpreted as "grossly offensive" by anybody will result in arrests AND prosecutions.
