To be clear: your interpretation of it is not being defended. People are arguing instead that you've interpreted it wrong -- i.e. that the 'hirelings and slaves' are the British soldiers, being likened to mercenaries (hirelings) and pointing out that they often served unwillingly after being press-ganged (slaves).

I have no skin in the game, but you seem to be taking others' statements in pretty bad faith.

Username checks out :P

Thanks. I am not American, and hence the federal nutrition programme went over my head.

The issue is that the use of force is not proportionate. Tasers can and do prove fatal in many cases, and pitch invaders can be dealt with using far less risky methods e.g..

In UK policing there is (supposed to be) a focus on ensuring proportionate use of force where it is necessary, and officers can face significant prison sentences if judged to have gone beyond that and have caused harm as a result.

And what goes into beans on toast? That's right: cumin, paprika, garlic, onion, pepper... Spices

Yah -- and to add certain edible mushrooms or families of mushrooms are very distinctive (e.g. hedgehog fungi in the UK), and I would recommend novices start out with. Others I wouldn't touch with a barge pole even if I was relatively confident with an id, purely because it isn't worth the risk (e.g. miller Vs fools funnel).
