In the scenario I don't have a weapon. I'm supposed to step in and tell them not to kill eachother. Not gonna happen

But the blur does......hopefully.

Not having a weapon in a land that carries weapons has it`s costs. You only need to learn when to and when not to,...it`s really that easy.

If you have money in America, there's always someone willing to take it. Trust me. I live in a rather large city. Judges take bribes.

So do you think the judge should get some kind of second chance after ruining his entrusted job ?

I wouldn`t know things like that, I live in a small town called Boston on the coast of Massachusetts.

Don't lose me with your sarcasm. I almost thought you are quite witty.
And why would you come to that conclusion? Your mind worKS in a curious way. Why in the world or how rather. .. could you come up with the idea that I would give a judge a second chance? There are much more human ways to punish people. Take his job and make him pay with all he has. I'd just assume everything he owned was purchased with bribe money so take it all and put it elsewhere. It's not like he'd even be able to do it again.

Yes, learning to be an expert shot is very important tho. Owning guns without being good with them.... pointless. I've been taking krav maga. It's intense.

I always say, I'll give up guns if our police and military does the same. Otherwise, pry em from my dead hands. I like knives a lot too. Shit, I'm just trying to be the best i can be at anything.

MMA training, krav maga, self defense, weapons training. I'd rather be in a position of strength if something goes to shit vs a helpless little girl

I asked that question because you were advocating rehab.

I guess I was thinking about the people that served his times and if you want an eye for an eye, ..... that Judge see a cell for all their times.

Actually, a carefully structured prison system that is not run by the private sector is humane. That`s why ships have a Brig.........

Many Americans are quite convinced that they live in one of the freest nations on the planet. Even if they don’t think that we are the freest, they still believe that our population has far more rights than the vast majority of the human race. However, these people tend to ignore our large prison population. Can you really call it a free country when that nation restricts the freedoms of such a large percentage of its population, most whom are convicted of nonviolent crimes?

What’s more shocking, is that our prison population has reached an ominous milestone over the past few years. The number of Americans who were in jail and prison, or on probation and parole, was 7 million people by 2009. When you include former inmates who have since left our prison system, you wind up with 19 million people as of 2010. This number exceeds the 18 million people who endured the Soviet Gulag system, between 1929 and 1953.

While the conditions in the gulags were far worse than American prisons, our facilities still utilize slave labor and torture techniques like solitary confinement to keep their inmates in line. And with a per capita incarceration rate that might only be exceeded by countries like North Korea and Cuba, there’s no reason to believe that the United States is still among the free nations of the world.

prisons in USA actually used to serve as a reform method. They were similar to boot camps and actually served as a deterrent.
Now, prisons are filled with mentally ill individuals. Prison is a place we Americans put people to forget about them. We need to reform our government as a whole. People are heartless and self involved and are happy to not think about human beings sitting in a jail cell getting butt raped and starving.

Americans are complacent. Things are baaaaaaaaad..... When will we overthrow our f'd up gov? Uhm....Iceland anyone?
prison sex is consensexual these days..canteen filled with king snickers (one for now; one for later)..:lol:

Bernie, nor any other candidate has any right to do anything to anyone that you or I as individuals cannot do.

The veil of legitimacy via a consensus of sycophants is a contradiction.

Can I get some extra peppers on my pizza Miss? By the way, you look a little old to be working slinging pizza...second job?
