@Hoss @sickburnbro Z.T. policies ensured that the smartest response to being physically assaulted is to simply respond with force in kind against anyone looking to batter you, propping people up for an understanding of the world's active two-tiered justice system: if you do something that is aggressive against such a system, you will be treated with the maximum punishment even if what you did (or even didn't do) doesn't warrant said punishment.
This is why January 6 is so ridiculous. They're being treated like they were an actual threat, so they may as well have been (but didn't). Likewise, you'll be treated as though you were fighting under Z.T. policies even though you weren't.
So, you may as well.
