Who the fuck is more scared?! A guy with a tiny dick and a gun, or some unarmed guy with no gun? Victim blaming sure is cool when it supports your twisted ideology. I'm all for gun ownership and self defense, but when you've escalated an argument to the point where you feel like you have to shoot the other guy, you've already fucked up. If you carry a gun, you have to be prepared to lose every argument with strangers, you have to be aware if you simply being there with a gun is going to escalate the situation.

Sure, if some guy suddenly assaults you out of nowhere? Go ahead and drop his ass.

If you get into a heated argument (Or track down a jogger with a shotgun and your drinking buddies), and escalate it to the point of having to shoot the other person, you basically caused their death by not backing down (Or in Arbery's case, he was literally stopped by some fatass losers with a shotgun because they assumed he was committing a crime)

Arbery had been comitting burglaries in their street so they had the right to make a citizens arrest. Arbery ran from one side of the truck to the other, towards the gunman, punched him and attempted to wrestle the gun from him, he deserved it.
