An internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement document in May shows that ICE told officers and agents they can forcibly enter homes of people subject to deportation without warrants signed by judges
He’s not doing whatever he can to not get murdered. He’s doing whatever he can to expose ICE’s hypocrisy and prove that they are the lawless murderers.
By not loading his weapon he has made it clear that there is no circumstance in which he would take another’s life. Not even to defend his own.
Is he putting himself at grave risk? Yes. Absolutely.
Is there a way to accomplish the same thing without risk? No.
Meh, a hero needs to be inarguably good at their intended goal. Anyone who doesn’t already agree with him is going to call him a dumbass, and rightfully so.
Do not appear to be a threat while not actually being a threat. Period. It’s almost as bad as being in danger while having zero defense.
You wouldn’t celebrate someone taking a walk in the woods with an empty bear mace can. This guy is doing the same thing: Going in to danger against wild animals with no actual defense.
Bears are not monsters, and there are much better ways of mitigating their threat. ICE and Donald cannot be mitigated. They must be met with overwhelming force. If you don’t have the option of overwhelming force, resort to subterfuge (if you are a hero).
This is a question of what happens during an attack. Not who is more likely to attack. For a bear, bear mace is an excellent choice. For ICE, if you already have a fucking gun, it being loaded is a first fucking step to that gun being useful at all.
is a first fucking step to that gun being useful at all.
Except you are not talking about the use he had in mind for the gun. There can be more than one use for a thing. As an example, here’s a very useful car:
Except that sign isn’t sitting on a road. Walking around an area where bullets might fly with an empty gun is equivalent to sitting on the road with a car out of gas.
I don’t care if you are holding a sign that says, “I should’ve gone electric!” while you’re sitting there with your car out of gas… If you did it on purpose, that is stupid.

That man is a definitional hero.

Again: Useless.
