as for your previous points about practical human response to realistic scenarios, instead of the wanky power-fantasies which others have posted (and ddm's fantasy about lying to the police and possibly contradicting a neighbor's 911 call), i generally agree

Nope, just shooting bad guys in my home in the middle of the night instead of your idea to have a conversation about it (you think conversations are yelling at the other person).

Shoot first, ask questions later.

I believe everyone will defend themselves, but defending yourself and shooting someone leaving your house for a TV are two different things.

Not the scenario discussed anymore.

You'd get in criminal trouble in any state except Texas for shooting someone to death, in the back, if they were fleeing with your stuff. You could lie all you wanted - forensics would clearly show you shot the perp in the back while they were fleeing.

maybe not everyone is in the situtation where they can instantly assume that noises downstairs = home invader

Yes, I saw your exception fallacy, already. 👆

actually you are the one asserting a fallacy that everyone has the same luxury of assuming "noises downstairs = home invader/shoot to kill"

Your point here is non sequitur. You're employing the exception fallacy, yet again, as the counter argument to the original exception fallacy you tried to sell.

Shoot first, ask questions later.

I'm getting a gun because of you, PVS. 🙂

Should I vote for Trump in November, as well?

^^more time waster trolling.

"i've decided that my specific situation applies to everyone, so it is universally valid. you're the one committing a fallacy btw. also: REEEEEEEEE!!!"

Well said!

Gotta love how when the overwhelming majority of people who reply to a thread disagree with Bash he always calls it a "coping party" because it hurts his little fee fees lol.

derailing the topic into whiney ad-hominem drivel, because someone made a fair point which you cannot intellectually or emotionally confront is: a coping party

Disagreed. Some places have poverty on par with "third world countries" here in the US.

I've talked about this, before - I only have to drive 40-45 minutes north from my house to drive into a shithole town that stays occupied because people are too stubborn to move of out of the shitty, falling apart homes made by their great great grand parents in the late 1800s, early 1900s.

Hmm, sounds a bit like some places in the UK.

However, crime is low. So they are not shithole shitholes. Just a bunch of law abiding white people and Native Americans with the best damn burger joint in the entire area (best patty melt I have ever had).

No one said there arent people living at that level, in fact I've stated exactly the opposite, the scale of poverty is very different per capita though. In the US and UK poor ghettos are there, but I doubt you need to visit them, the places I have to travel to, to get to my destination or low level workers come from number the majority rather than minority. Still doesn't make it a shit hole.

It's not when you apply it to the exact scenario I'm talking about: the poorest shitholes in the US. We see abject poverty levels of life expectancy in the very poorest of places in the US just like some very poor places around the world. The US isn't special when it comes to doing terribly to treat our poor. Much of this has to do with our shitty capitalistic healthcare system.

The area with the lowest life expectancy was Stilwell, Oklahoma, where the average expectancy was 56.3 years old.

...

Places that were in the bottom 25 percent of life expectancy had four things in common. The majority of the people were less educated, incomes were in the bottom 25 percent, populations were predominantly black, and locations were in the south.

That's a lower life expectancy than Ethiopia and about the life expectancy of Chad.

Edit - the life expectancy is so low in some of those places in the US that it is actually lower than the national averages of many "3rd world countries."

Stop projecting. Literally everyone is admonishing you for your shitty beliefs on this and you’re the one still yapping. Grow up.

you're just another living joke with nothing to contribute to any discussion in the gdf 👆

I disagree. I do enjoy Eon's thoughts on the topics when he's not taking the piss out of you. 🙂
