Oh I get that.

We have these claims:

- Shooting someone is absolutely bad in all scenarios

- Its correct to shoot someone if they are trying to shoot you

I agree with the second point completely. The problem is if you say that, you should go back and revise the first point, because clearly its not absolutely bad.

In the case of tariffs, once you acknowledge that reciprocal tariffs are good, you run into a problem because the US generally has lower tariffs on other countries than other countries have on it.
