Armed defense?

[leetninja]

I haven't deleted any posts...not sure who did.  I was blocking someone else, you were blocked by accident.

I'm still blocked at home (where i am now) by IP.  I can work around it to log into here as you can see but i would like to be unblocked if this was accidental ...

Wow, what a way to treat someone who came here looking for help originally, and then got involved.

If you do something offensive, someone might ask you to stop or leave, but we don't delete posts or actually ban users. Whatever gets said gets left there so anyone and everyone else on the board can see it and make their own judgments.

Whether or not you are going to shoot the government agents who come to take your guns is an important question to me.  It'd be nice to know if the guy standing next to you at a party or rally or such is going to start shooting if the gov't starts confiscating guns.  I don't think we can win a violent revolution against the US government.  I don't think it's RIGHT to use violence to get what we want. Too many innocent people die.  I want to use peaceful means.  Maybe your molon labe phrase has nothing to do with revolution or why we're all here together.  But then why use the porcupine in the picture?  

   Ask the porcupine to hand over his quills,  he'd likely say, "Come and get them!"

no one has EVER "won" anything using "peace" you have to fight or you will lose.

I was never impressed or interested in the scenarios that brought leetninja to this forum and I really don't like him hanging around.
So ... looks like another forum wants you leetninja ... wanna take them up on the offer?

I am not looking to win and have someone lose.
I want to live in peace and so I have to live peacefully.
If that is not what you are focused on, I would rather not hang out with you and might even need to oppose your activities.

[Russell Kanning]

My own thresholds for when I'd be willing to use violence to defend myself—against anyone, government thug or private thug alike—would be "will I get away with it?" and "do I have nothing to lose?".
Question—would you be unwilling to shoot someone if they were actually coming to kill you? And if so, do you honestly think everyone else should live by this same standard?

Why not ... only when it is right? Why refrain only because the thugs is bigger or has backup?
Yes
If everyone lived that way, there would not be killing. If many people live that way, then your have very little killing. We live in a mostly murder free society because most people are not willing to kill.

Yet, they still have quills and use them when cornered.

 The right to defend oneself is a right I would defend...try saying that real fast 3 times.

Ill, sick, bad, nasty, down, raunchy, etc...

positives or negatives depending on the usage ('sup, yo...check out these nasty tunes. Ill as shit. I'm down.)

I am, however, feeling under the weather

this is an honest question.   what exactly is your problem with me?  have i somehow done something to harm you?  my original reason for coming here was because i peacefully stopped someone from burning down my neighbors home!  Am i to assume that if someone was trying to burn down your home that you wouldnt want someone to stop them peacefully?  or that if you caught someone trying to burn down a neighbors home you would just watch out the window? 

Please dont delete my post and then go say that i somehow threatened to burn your house down or something.

So what is the problem with what originally brought me here?  Or with me personally?  Obviously there is something bothering you about me but i have no idea what it is and it seems as though neither does anyone else ...

and yes, i might sign up with another forum - does that somehow equal you banning me again/still via IP or that i can not be a member of this forum for some reason?

i guess i could be "ok" with this whole thing if there were a reason for it and you werent twisting my words so horribly, banning my IP address, and deleting my posts.  it obviously stems from some kind of issue you have with me which is why i am asking why.  i just dont get it.
