Just don't reply to me. Please. If you can help it.

If one of these guys was shot in the head by the cops, this would all be over and wouldn't be tried again until the 22nd century. These are not people fighting for something greater than themselves.

He just reminded them over and over and over that what was happening to him was so unfair and so unjust and fighting back was totally justified. But they should go home in peace.

Who would have thunk.
