I mean I don't think anybody is actually declaring 12 non-protesters are as deadly as 100 protesters. Unless somebody actually said that (link?) then you're guessing at best. It's an easy to defeat position, a strawman. Like you said very sarcastically and dismissively, "makes total sense".

I'm not implying anything other than to point out the strawman. I don't disagree with your post. Like I said, your argument doesn't need to reach. But if someone actually is saying that "12X are as deadly as 100Y", please link me so I can join you in mocking them :p
