Phoenix boy, 14, shoots armed intruder while watching three younger siblings - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Don Knotts;36476501]If there were more people like you I wouldn't even need a job. Just break into houses and steal all their shit while they ask me politely to stop.[/QUOTE] Oh you want money? Ok here's my life's savings, I'm sorry for inconveniencing you with the locked door I'll leave it open next time

How is it more morally correct for someone to be raped and killed because they didn't kill their attacker, than if they had just killed them?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476575]As soon as you broke into my house you would have lost. Unless you're some sort of superhuman who doesn't leave evidence behind. Which I doubt.[/QUOTE] I suppose you wear a bulletproof vest at all times or what is your skin made of kevlar or something?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476575]As soon as you broke into my house you would have lost. Unless you're some sort of superhuman who doesn't leave evidence behind. Which I doubt.[/QUOTE] I'd chase people around with a book of matches trying to light their clothes because self defense if frowned on. If only.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476635]Alright, lets imagine this: You, broke into my house with the intent to kill me. I make no resistance, but you kill me anyway. But you would be caught, sentenced and known as a murderer for the rest of your life. Or I would tell you to leave my residence and I wouldn't contact the police. Now what seems more reasonable?[/QUOTE] Uh, you'd die in both scenarios, assuming it's the same person.

Hey guys, some guy broke into my house and tried to kill me, but I shot him and he's recovering in the hospital and facing a prison sentence. Which is more reasonable?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476397]You're barbarians.[/QUOTE] because you often see "Man sits would-be robber down and chats problems; saves own life in the process." in the news, right?

Now what seems more reasonable?[/QUOTE]If a man wants to kill you, he's not going to listen to reason. He wants you dead, not anything you can offer. A murderer doesn't care about the ramifications, they care about doing it. You really have no idea how people like this think, do you?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476685]No, if I explained to the murderer that his life would end as soon as he took mine, he wouldn't do it. Unless he was insane. Which seems more likely than ever after I read this thread.[/QUOTE] You are so out of touch with reality it's crazy.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476685]No, if I explained to the murderer that his life would end as soon as he took mine, he wouldn't do it. Unless he was insane. Which seems more likely than ever after I read this thread.[/QUOTE] Not if he doesn't get caught. Sometimes murderers do get away. There's also nothing to stop him from just severely injuring you and stealing things. Either way, you can't guarantee that he will be captured. He could very well get away scotch free.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476685]No, if I explained to the murderer that his life would end as soon as he took mine, he wouldn't do it. Unless he was insane. Which seems more likely than ever after I read this thread.[/QUOTE] haha how adorable

This is a great story for pro-2nd amendment citizens.

Either way, you can't guarantee that he will be captured. He could very well get away scotch free.[/QUOTE] Let's not forget how badly people can over-estimate their abilities. It's pretty easy to make yourself think you can get away with nearly anything.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476685]No, if I explained to the murderer that his life would end as soon as he took mine, he wouldn't do it. Unless he was insane. Which seems more likely than ever after I read this thread.[/QUOTE] You think all people breaking into houses with intent to kill are perfectly reasonable, sane human beings?! I wouldn't have to read the thread to tell you otherwise, if this happened you'd be killed dead.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476716]So you're saying you know how murderers think?[/QUOTE]Considering the fact my uncle murdered my mother, and his son helped dispose of the body of a two year old, yes.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476716]So you're saying you know how murderers think?[/QUOTE] You aren't? Do I need to quote your last post?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476716]So you're saying you know how murderers think?[/QUOTE] I have a feeling he knows more than you.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476734]I know how a person of reason thinks.[/QUOTE]And you think a murderer has reason?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476748]Everyone has reason. It's a part of being human.[/QUOTE] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psoq8qYvx18&feature=player_embedded[/media]

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476734]I know how a person of reason thinks.[/QUOTE] And murderers are the most reasonable people I know!

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476734]I know how a person of reason thinks.[/QUOTE] Is that so?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476748]Everyone has reason. It's a part of being human.[/QUOTE]Ok, suppose a murderer has reason. How could anything you offer outweigh his want to kill you? You say his life would end as soon as he kills you, but why would he care? He WANTS to kill you. That means that, if he truly has reason, he's gone over the consequences and accepted what would happen already. Look at Brevik for a killer with reason if you must. You think you could reason with him?

AKA an example of the right to bear arms at work. (don't take the at work part literally) (and inb4 a picture of bear arms)

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476734]I know how a person of reason thinks.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=NielsGade;36476748]Everyone has reason. It's a part of being human.[/QUOTE] Aren't you pretty much stating that you know how everyone thinks

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476804]He's a compulsive liar and a product of his environment. Doesn't make him less reasonable.[/QUOTE] He has somewhere between 100 and 200 (possibly more) murders and you're saying he's just lying?

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476821]I know logic.[/QUOTE]People aren't logical at all. Emotions fuck logical thinking up.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476804]He's a compulsive liar and a product of his environment. Doesn't make him less reasonable.[/QUOTE] However, it does show that a reasonable person can still kill dozens of people. [editline]24th June 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=NielsGade;36476821]I know logic.[/QUOTE] I call troll. This is beyond stupidity.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476821]I know logic.[/QUOTE] You're a fucking idiot.

[QUOTE=NielsGade;36476839]He changes the number all the time. He's lying.[/QUOTE] You are literally the dumbest human being I've encountered, well done and good day sir.
