 Alert | Reminds me of something that Nazi drummer72 would say Quote:
Perhaps the most common justification is that of "self-defense." Rather than relying on our highly trained police force, these people believe in some sort of vigilante justice, not unlike cowboys and robbers in the old west. Books such as More Guns, Less Crime argue for this.
Suppose a person breaks into your house at night and attacks you with a knife. Now, according to the right-wing point of view, you would be justified in shooting him with the gun you keep hidden under your pillow.
However, it is impossible to truly understand the circumstances leading up to this person's breaking into your house. Perhaps he is a minority. Maybe he was made fun of in school for being a homosexual. He is probably poor. Knowing these facts, how can you, an upper middle class exploiter, be justified in ending this man's life? The answer is: you can't.
In fact this man is homeless and was merely looking for some food to feed his starving family. By killing him in so-called self-defense you are no better than a common murderer. |

Alert | | HAAHAHA typical liberal point of view... I don't care how starving or cracked out someone is, If you are coming into my home to take anything of mine... you have got another thing coming. But it is totally something drummerboy would say... Maricopa should be the next Kennesaw, Georgia.... Gun town USA!!! | |

Alert | I really don't think this is 'typical.' I'd consider myself a little left of center, but to me this is not only radical, but just ludicrous. Drummer, you wouldn't agree with this... would you? Besides all of the other obvious problems with the argument, how does the moron who wrote this even know that the owner of the house that's being broken into is 'upper middle class?' | | | |

Although it would make me happy if the perp was a liberal. | | | |

Alert | | I still love the assumption that if you are defending your home against an intruder you must be "upper middle class" | | | |

But it is totally something drummerboy would say... Maricopa should be the next Kennesaw, Georgia.... Gun town USA!!! No, I don't agree with that at all. And JHall, you're a typical liberal hater. You don't even know me and how can you predict what I would say? If you really want to know, dress up as a hungry bum and try breaking into my house. There are several ways to skin a cat... | |

Alert | Heck if he was looking for food for the family send them his body meat is meat if your that hungry. You can say I'm crazy I earned everything I have and someone on welfare has. Let someone try to take a little more and I will have to draw the line no matter why he came to my house. | |

Alert | | I sure wish more liberals would make points like the one in the original post in this thread. It is things like this that make the Republican Party bigger. | |

Alert | I am a liberal and I find the scenario your painted to be completely ridicules. What makes you think this is how ALL liberals think? In fact, what makes you think anyone thinks this way? Quit trying to put words into our mouths that are not true. Maybe I should make up some ridicules story about how conservatives think and act, thus pertetuating the streotypes of all of you.
