    Marxist radical? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
    Name one marxist policy Obama has even proposed let alone passed.

    You need to do some research on rule of law, appropriate justified punishment and Marxism.

    Also I'm not sure the majority of the nation is in favor of citizens applying the death penalty for burglary so I don't know that I'm in the minority.

    Just so I've read this right...your thought process when someone breaks into your house is that you value their life over your possessions, thus you should not shoot first?

    That's awfully kind of you but I guarantee you that not all of them are going to value your life in the same way in that situation.

    Yes, you've read correctly. If someone else values my life less, then that's on them. They must act according with their own conscience and I'll try and act according to mine.

    I do own many guns and if someone breaks into my house they are going to be shot. You do not break into someone's home unless you are there to do harm.

    Were you probed by an alien?

    Have the burglaries stopped since the Trayvon shooting?

    Is your conscience bullet proof?

    What about your (my) children left behind fatherless?

    Also, I have to say that it is very irritating when you act as if every criminal enterprise is about stealing staplers. I don't value any stapler over any human life and I know that not every B&E ends in a killing but how are we to know which ones might?

    No, of course not. If someone shoots me, that's not something I did wrong, that's something they've done wrong.

    Well, I guess they could put that on your tombstone.

    I would certainly hope that I wasn't killed. If I had children and was killed, behaving in the way I believe to be correct, my children would hopefully know that I died doing what I believe in, and there's not a better way to go. Also hopefully they would learn to stick to your principles in even the most trying situations.

    I would be proud if my father died making a principled stand like that. Of course I think that scenario is highly unlikely, but whatever. If a burglar breaks in, and you are at home, but don't threaten to kill them, they don't really have a reason to kill you.

    You're making me nasueaus.


    If someone commits a felony against me they knew the risks they were taking and that their actions may or may not lead to them suffering serious bodily
    injury. I believe people should be held accountable for their actions. I'm sick of people not being responsible. Just watch the news tonight at 10.

    Wouldn't be surprised if Martin was responsible for a few of them.

    That's because you and your cohorts are ridiculous.

    I'll leave you to your bigoted hate and race baiting.
