    So if a cop, afflicted with PTSD from shooting teenagers, points a gun at me and I kill him in self-defense…

    The thing is, liberals want to see this as some kind of exercise in fairness. “Oh if can shoot me then I can shoot them!”

    No. This is a gang-violence thing. The MS-13 gang member can shoot you because he’s got a gun and years of psychological scarring and a willingness to kill to survive. You can’t shoot the gang member, because all his buddies will show up at your house, hold you down and skin your dog alive while you’re forced to watch, then bust out all your teeth and hang you out to dry as an example.

    Cops work the same way.
