I have a right to be secure in my property, and it is the duty of the state to investigate and punish the violators, yes. Not much incentive to pay my taxes otherwise.
Oh, did Kyle personally stop that mentally unstable hobo from fiddling a kid that night? Was the deceased mid-fiddle when Kyle stepped in to save the day? Fuck off. You cannot be this stupid. But assuming for a moment that you are, why did his other victims only start chasing Kyle after he shot his first victim? Also, riot?
The fact that you would conflate the two would forfeit your last shred of credibility if you hadn't already done that years ago.
Fires, looting, property destruction. I know, I know. "Fiery but mostly peaceful." He was attacked. He defended himself. The "reasonable person" appraisal was satisfied in court.
So because you don't bother to adequately protect your stereo from thieves, it's up to the state to protect it and to spend time and money trying to make you whole if someone steals it? But if you don't bother to adequately protect your arteries from plaque deposits, you can drop dead and that's not anyone else's problem?
I would say everyone present was obviously too immature. Doesn't mean he deserved to be attacked or had no right to defend himself.
Because I accept the terms of polite society and don't track them down myself. Violation of my rights is a crime, and it is the duty of the state to investigate and prosecute crimes, yes. Because I have done that to myself, and I cannot violate my own rights or victimize myself.
Of course you don't. Because your trust fund paid for your college. Most other people actually pay real money to get their degree and it doesn't come from a trust fund. What the fuck do you think flat earth is? Special treatment means discussing the course subject? Not if they're intentionally being stupid and derailing the subject by attempting to discuss religious topics in science class, no, they're not. Then you'd think they would also wish to actually discuss the topic of the course. What?
No, it's not. If Rittenhouse shot and killed the first guy because he was making a move on Rittenhouse's baby face, then it's even moreso murder. Women in the same situation have been imprisoned for the same thing.
You keep bringing up my trust fund as if this discussion is about me, it isn't, it's a hypothetical situation that @Diacanu created. I can only guess as to why you're doing it and my guess is that you're attempting to attack me personally because you felt the need to do this. Then you attempt to say that money is not real money, it is. It's real money that my parents earned during their lifetime's and left for me when they died. It's supposed to be used for retirement and you're right, I did use some of it to pay for college. The money that went towards my college degree was real money that may or may not be there later on if and when I retire. I fail to see how this is supposed to be a negative thing on my part or the part of my parents. In fact, I'm willing to bet that every single person on this board wants to leave something behind for their loved ones when they die. Why you felt the need to make this discussion personal is beyond me. If you want to discuss the hypothetical situation that @Diacanu presented then we can, but I'm no longer indulging in your personal attacks against me.
Don't point out the thing that makes me looooose!! Play by MY rules that make YOU lose, so my pee-pee can feel big!!
In self-defense. Presumably in full view of everyone who subsequently attacked him. If he had been wearing a Che t-shirt and looted some Nikes, nobody would have fucked with him and you all goddamn well know it. But since he extinguished some arson and exposed himself as not being there in support of the riot party, suddenly he's an imminent threat. Get the fuck out of here.
You would have to ask him. I personally wouldn't do it because I don't fetishize murderous thieving shitbags and won't compromise myself just to feel safer.
Wow, I took you off ignore for like three hours and now you resort to the usual routine. Her comment about my trust fund is irrelevant to what was being discussed. It's a tactic to throw me off and distract from the actual discussion she was losing.
Even if I didn't detest the fucking alphabet agencies, impersonating one of them is a big-time no-no crime. I don't know if the same goes for military uniforms, but the whole "stolen valor" thing is some top-tier cowardly shitbaggery that should have consequences.
I'm bringing it up because you think it's acceptable to waste other people's time and money on religious topics in a science class.
what? you want I should say they're there (from out of state) to protect other peoples' private property from looters? but yeah, no place for guns in public. I'd think at what's presumably a polling station would be top of that list in a functioning democracy. Leads to the question, why are they there armed in the first place?
There is zero evidence of this. No. He was already running away from the people who saw him directly after hearing the gunshot. the people who attempted to stop him - the actual good guys, were not anywhere near the original shooting. That's a presumption on your part. Please remove this from all future arguments. He didn't extinguish anything. He ignited it. As for the riots... everything was peaceful until trump supporting asshats showed up to derail the peaceful protest.
