@johnabbottphotography They're not making the comparison. You're trying to lead them to the comparison by ducking his question with your own.

@jamesm568 So you obviously care a bit then, if you CAN care less. Why do so many Yanks insist on getting that saying wrong?

@johnabbottphotography Except the question wasn't "define insurrection". But because you're trying to force a comparison, you tried twisting it into that. What they actually asked you was whether anyone died or if they were incited and lead by someone who'd just lost a democratic election. I'm paraphrasing that last bit but it's important context. Here's the thing, the Oxford dictionary defines insurrection as a violent uprising against an authority or government. Gun control is a concept, not an authority. And their protest was peaceful. This is not comparable to a large mob storming a government building seeking to overturn an election because their guy lost. What this is, it's denying citizens of their right to protest a state of affairs harming their nation.

@Jay-cp9kd It's not a spelling thing, it's just an understanding of the words you're using. And people only worrying about themselves is a surefire way to see our species regress so I'm gonna continue caring about people and making sure they're protected. And I couldn't care less if that bothers you.

@zenoist2101 Wise of them to stop playing the statehouse games then.

@jimohara If you're looking at people campaigning to make the world safer and you think "what a bunch of asses" then what does that say about you? Go on, say something clever.

@Lerian_V If no-one broke the rules, nothing would get changed. Do you think the US civil rights movement was won by people "behaving" themselves?

@selvamthiagarajan8152 It's a type of human, now stop being a coward and answer their question.

@selvamthiagarajan8152 Go on then, what's your definition?

@selvamthiagarajan8152 I literally just said "your definition".
