Well, say it loudly: Kill or not?

Well, you say it loudly first: would you prefer your wife and dauhter to be raped and yourself enslaved?Originally Posted by Rtyom
Every reasonable person would say: No.

Well, I would raise arm against someone who wants and has means to "enslave me and rape my wife and my dauhter". What's wrong with that?Originally Posted by Rtyom

It's harder to justify two shots as self defense.Originally Posted by Barmaley

Are you a sniper? Or you really hope that such person(s) would be so kind to come really close to you and present his/her/their kneecap(s) in a manner that you can't miss?Originally Posted by BlackMage
Chuvak is right in that no one should have need or want to hurt another person, but people are inherently evil. If everyone laid down their weapons as he says, one man would decide to take over and everone else would be powerless to stop him. This makes it neccesary for honest people to protect themselves, both personnaly and as a country. I'm not a patriot and would never willingly serve in something as corrupt as the US military, but I will protect myself and the people and things I care about.
There's a difference between that and the organised killing of complete strangers.

The seed of evil is in every person. Someone would sprout it, another would trample on it. Maybe I'm too good, but I won't raise my arm on any person. Only in the state of affect, and after it I would regret that very long time. You can say I'm an idealist or something... I do believe it's possible to live without violence. However people do no want it because they are too weak to fight against themselves.
Who said that joining army is a gesture of patriotism? You call bringing death and suffering in the name of the place where you live a patriotism? You know there is a very good Russian proverb "как аукнется, так и откликнется". Just think about this.
And there is no the word "patriotism" for me. It's a dummy word for me. I live because of life itself and don't need to show any sensless adoration.

Maybe you just have noone to care about.

Patriotism is the root of much evil.

You will find the root of evil is much deeper than Patriotism for Patriotism in of it's self is benign. You should look to Pride as the root.Originally Posted by basurero

If you all had read Chuvak's post in its entirety, you could have saved your arguments about crime. Hhe said that he agrees the need for local police enforcement, so the only exception would be for the police to have weapons.
I personally don't believe that if there were no standing armies, there would be world peace. There are too many disputes as it is, take Chechnya for an example. You think that if there was no Russian army and the separists didn't have weapons, people would be strolling around hand in hand singing slightly old-fashioned songs? No, the separists would be still angry and if they had no weapons, they would start throuwing inanimate objects at the occupiers, or strangeling them, whatever. Same goes for the Palestinians, the Tamils, the ETA, etc. etc. No army - less blood, but not more happiness...

Its not about weapons, it's about chemicals in your head, human nature if you will. If there is no AK-47, there is always a rock.
Take this aggression away and we all turn into lazy apathetic bums with not a single care for anything.

It never ceases to amaze me that the threads that are the most useless to argue are the ones that get the most posts. I don't mean that in a snide way, but it's true. We can all sit here and debate this until we're blue in the face, but no one is going to change their opinion. Wheras, if we were talking about, say, whether to use the genative or accusative case in some context, we'd be making much more progres...
