    Plus plenty of us Americans mock that stuff too. In the state I live in, a man was killed by people loving guns like this because he was black while jogging. At the time, I was living in a city called White, GA. Down the street was a lumberyard that flew Confederate and Trump flags. I’m a person who since I was young loved exploring places in woods etc, but I’m rather terrified to do it in this day and area, especially with my skin color. A lot of us are trapped by circumstances here, so that comment felt more like a

    “You complain about America, yet you live there. Curious.” type of comment.
