So you DON’T have to use physical force to kill that cow for your steak? Like the ones I’m fixing for dinner tonight? How do YOU kill your cows? THINK them dead? Get real.

What he’s saying is that if you want someone to do something in your name and on your behalf, you need to be legitimately able and willing to do it yourself, as well. And he is correct.

He used a really bad metaphor to make a point about the use of force by the government. He also used convoluted thought in his attempt to make that point. Whether or not his actual point is correct makes no difference when he’s not able to clearly communicate his point.
