The way he sold it isn't that he cares about Trump, but that he cared strongly about being a pacifist. Yeah alright, fair enough. But Kyle Gass is also a pacifist, realised he fucked up, and apologised from that perspective. So is Jack a pacifist, or does he just never give people second chances? :/

I think he was just imminently concerned about their safety. Like the post suggests, many thought desperate times were coming and any rando in a maga hat might retaliate.

Yeah, but this excuse kind of falls apart when you realise they were on tour in Australia, where the likelihood of a) someone caring about Trump enough; and b) has the means to retaliate in a country with far more restrictions on gun ownership.
