    Of course not, but he’s also right. Robbing someone is not violence, shooting someone is violence. Granny has the right spirit, but she needs to work on her wording/messaging. IMO the poster would have worked the same if it said “when you rob the poor, you’re a businessman, when the poor fight back, they’re criminals”.

      If robbing someone causes them to fucking die it is absolutely violence. It’s like taking food away from someone who desperately needs it: you’re essentially killing them.
