OK - it's like this:
Something's gone wrong with the whole world. We don't know what. We're trying to make do but we're all scared. A few of us are sticking together, discussing plans and following through with agreed actions. That has built trust between us.
A few have decided to "do their own thing" - which has made the others distrust them.
Like it or not, that's the way things are. I'll *ask raven if I can have the gun* - if it makes you feel any better @old.Tohtori. But he may say no. And I'd undertand that.
But at the end of the day this can go one of two ways for you:
1) You calm down, accept that most of us didn't want to see you shot, realise that you're receiving medical attention and that we're saying "please, act in a way that will rebuild our trust in you"
or
2) You continue to act in the manner that got you shot in the first place, we end up tying you up, and who knows what'll happen, probably something very bad that we may and you definitely will regret.
Humans have a survival instinct - you won't be killing yourself over this - but considering the situation we all find ourselves in I think we're bending over backwards to try to fix it.
Sorry you were shot. It's not fair. But that's done and it's tough shit. Which is it gonna be?
