You are not allowed to do violence yourself, you must petition the government to do violence for you. And the government will decide how and when it is appropriate to do violence on your behalf.
So, for example, a white nationalist Nazi saying all women deserve to be raped is not a justifiable reason to do violence.
But a brown person living peacefully where oil is IS reason to do violence. Ok?
A group of people demanding that all LGBTQ+ people be sterilized or executed, no reason to do violence.
Those people defending themselves, now we need to do violence. Got it?
Because the state has a monopoly on violence.

I was trying to not be angry
This is why it’s also perfectly legal to stand in front of a health insurance company headquarters with signs advocating for further CEO shootings.
I’m not going to try that, since that woman was arrested for talking to a health fund employee in a way that reminded them of the shooting
No see because that hurts money’s feelings.
So that’s gonna get some violence.
Society would be so much better if people exercised their grievances with vigilante violence, amirite?
