Just to be clear, you're advocating for setting fire to people's homes?

  No, I'm advocating maintaining tactical parity. 'fight fire with a fire' is a fairly common metaphor for reciprocal action.

    But the initial action was literally fire

      That was one action mentioned, but I think you're being over-literal here - I said tactical parity, not mirroring every action. Essentially I am saying that people abandoned by the state should consider taking the defense of land back into their own hands when they experience violence, as was summarized here: People affected by it, like loggers who lose their property and livelihoods can hardly do anything, since the invaders will often get violent and the State wont do anything.

        So you said fight fire with fire to mean fight fire with something that isn't fire.
