Hard disagree. There are boundaries for what is acceptable, and even in international war there are rules of conflict set in place. You just come across as a fedposter or internet edgelord if you try to argue that we're actually justified in committing assassinations or political violence.
The whole reason why we can condemn people for supporting the assassination attempt is because we've never resorted to those kinds of vulgar tactics. And look what's happened, it's damaged the left's reputation and caused a lot of people to shift to our side. Political violence is the last thing that anyone should be advocating right now.
You're acting as if I'm saying we shouldn't have shot the shooter. Obviously defend yourself with force when your life is threatened. But the original argument was that it's perfectly reasonable to be disgusted by the left attempting and supporting an assassination attempt. Trying to paint me as a pacifist is completely disingenuous.
