liberals such as yourself, who are eager to step in and protect me from my ignorance, by force if necessary.

One final thing before I leave this discussion, Mike.

It’s not about protecting you from your own ignorance, though if I see you about to throw gasoline on a charcoal fire that you think just went out, I may say something to try to convince you it’s a bad idea.

Most essentially, it’s about protecting everyone else from your ignorance.

You have the sovereign right to do stupid shit- except when that stupid shit endangers others.

So do all the stupid shit you want. Just do it downwind from everyone else where the sparks won’t burn down our houses.

Don’t worry. After the flare up dissipates, we’ll take the charred husk of your body and give it a decent burial.

It’s the least we can do.
