You’d all be reving the engines of your F-150 lined up to get your gun and revenge.
I do have to object to using Canada's Indigenous in an example like this. They have shown a lot of restraint and civility considering everything they went through as a people, compared to the lack of civility that the colonial powers exercised on them. I can't even entertain the thought that they would resort to such things, even as a thought experiment.
