I agree, I liken this to a Master Lock. All keys are the same for the master lock (A Hammer/Crowbar), that doesn't mean it doesn't provide a measure of "sufficient security".

like Hey, if you want to steal my lawnmower thats cool bro. I'll put a master lock on the shed and worry about securing the really important stuff.

I live in the Ontario suburbs you nitwit. Yes I'm talking about you.

I got mine through 30 years of hard work, your dissonance is the cost at which it is to serve you with city services in the suburbs vs a big city landowner (welfare case paying property taxes? where do you get this stuff)
Also no one mentioned city politics so there is that too.

When my kid was 2, she was at grandmas when she had an aneurysm. Luckily grandpa was home. Far from scarring, my kid actually had a fascinating life experience, and opened a dialogue about emergencies, first responders, what to do if something bad happens and they are alone. My kid still recalls it today as a positive, but very unfortunate circumstance.

Kids are far more resilient than your average parent gives them credit for. I'm proud of the way my kid handled it.

Better outcomes than mean is the goal of equal opportunities. Nice false equivelence here. How on earth is your comment Interesting? It doesn't even survive casual consideration.

Equal treatment != equal opportunities.
Equal treatment = inequal mobility due to means

As far as I can tell, and I'm just taking a straw poll of my middle class liberal self and friends.... Liberals tend to be for Equal Treatment + Equal Opportunities (= better outcomes on average), as this is the only approach which can close the gap on Equal Outcomes.
