Some people are weak and restrain themselves to morality and let sensibilities, emotions, and other things distract themselves from the bigger picture. You're putting criminals above yourself, think about how self-destructive and masochistic that is. I have my computer locked down tight and it would take 20 years for the FBI, NSA, or whoever to build the technology needed to break through my computers and servers.
you believe our founding fathers, great men and women who came before us, people who fought and died for our country; u think they were without the "restraint of morality, sensibility and emotion"? Do you call those great people "weak"?
well im sorry to tell you but ur sadly mistaken.
Are those not the things that make us human? Morality, sensibility, emotion... where would we be without those things and the brave men and women who fight to defend those values? I try not to think about it, but lately in todays times, it seems like that's all you see around the world... desensitization and erosion of morality. And i for one will be damned if i let go of those qualities that have gotten this great national to where it is today. So for you to just disregard those things when determining whether or not to shoot someone, or from you day to day life... just seems like plain "ignorance" to me.
Seems to me you need to unplug from this technological age we are in, u have to spend too much time on the computer anyway to be a super computer hacker capable of out-witting the FBI, NSA, CIA, or whoever (just seems like ignorance to me). Maybe if you take a step back and think about the difference between right and wrong, you will get the "bigger picture" and hopefully you can instill good values upon your children and give them guidance so they make the right choices in life, perhaps instill those in your kid before you let them have a gun so they can perhaps make the right choice when deciding whether or not to shot someone. The people who most often grow up to be a criminal, are often the ones who have not had morality, responsibility, sensibility and the difference between right and wrong instilled in them and proper guidance from an responsible adult since the time they were youths.
also how was i "ignorant" on gun control/ ownership what have you. all i said was " use discretion and responsibility when handling a fire-arm. ALWAYS.," if you don't agree with that then that is also plain "ignorance" and you shouldn't have a gun. I understand you want to protect yourself but y should someone who doesn't use discretion and responsibility with guns be allowed to have one? so they can shoot someone else caused by indiscretion and irresponsibility? seems frightening to me
U may need to rethink what it means to be an American, if all you think it means is that you have rights because i do and i can shoot anyone without regards to morality and sensibility. U might what to rethink what the "Big Picture" is, which i still don't know what that means according to you.
maybe your idea of the big picture coincides better with another countries views, perhaps somewhere in the middle east? or china? i hear execution without due process are more common over there? they seem to treat criminals with much the same beliefs you do, or am i wrong?
Again if you or your family is in danger, do what you gotta do.
