Evidence Quote

in the United States, if you can't stand somebody, uh, you sue them... That's fundamentally different than murdering people. And so my my point is is yes, we have horrible conflicts, but I think that there's a broad agreement that by enough of the population that murdering people for disagreeing with them is not okay.
