[orange, wielding a gun, shoots at green] DIE!

[green is pouring blood from the chest, falling to the floor] Gasp! You shot me!

[blue, shrugging] As a neutral onlooker, I saw green insult orange before orange shot green, so I guess they’re both equally at fault here

[green, laying in a pool of their own blood, is extremely confused]

    I realize you’re going for argumentum ad absurdum but unfortunately I’m with Heinlein on this one. Rude and/or antisocial behavior is reasonable justification for murder. Politeness and kindness for everybody until they prove unworthy of it.

    Then eliminate the cunt.

      Then we should genocide all colonized/oppressed peoples since they tend to fight back and it’s rude ?

      I think it was Robin Williams that had a take on that, only he included the death would be temporary. So you’d wake up from being killed and realize you were a jerk.
