I did read....you think people are talking tough, but not thinking about the consequences afterwards...


How does talking tough equate to protecting yourself? After the fact is something different, do you have time to make that decision and worry about the consequences after, at that moment?

How else are folks who are intent on ignoring human decency going to respond to calls for them to act with human decency? They have to shrug it off because otherwise they'd have to bring themselves to face the indefensible nature of what they want to do.

When defending yourself becomes indefensible.

Actually, this thread is about killing someone who stole a vehicle. Only a gun fondling right wing nutjob would support killing someone for stealing....a truck.

It all goes back to the leftist belief that it's to take from one and give to another as long as there is 'need' or the other is of a favored class. Not a big leap from the government doing it to someone engaging in a little personal enterprise.

Depends on what state you're in. In my state if someone breaks into your house it is lawful to use lethal force against them regardless of age or armed status.
