I like the Voyager app because it lets me add a private label to accounts. That way I can label accounts that are obviously trolls or fascists or w.e, but not so far off the handle that I feel the need to block them. Like the person you replied to! I labelled as "Daft C**t" with their own personalised colour for the tag months ago.
That way I can see right away that whatever I'm about to read is gonna be wild, and feels intentionally contrarian! Like this! Guy asks how laws passed to track who is buying machetes could possibly have an impact on curbing machete attacks. It feels like our erstwhile friend here is being intentionally thick. But it almost always does.
Handy feature that.

Sure are a lot of attacks with other weapons.
"In order to curb violence, he said there needs to be more social supports, job opportunities, anti-violence training and community support."

When you are the number 2 province in homicides, restricting individual items that are used as weapons is a colossal waste of time and resources. Silly goose.
