Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

I've seen these arguments on Twitter, and they just move the goal posts to total murders. Or blanks continuing x current crimes, etc. You can't win with them, because they don't care about accuracy or facts. They care about stirring the pot and creating chaos.
Hypocrisy is a tool of the GQP.
Still, you need to call it out.
Oh, for sure. Gotta at least show passersby that these folks are insane, and the real numbers.
Yeah they ignore the entire concept of "per capita" because it is inconvenient for them.
Maybe California shouldn't have so many people
