Struck a nerve, did I? You offered to take responsibility for the burned toddler =>

Struck a nerve my @$$. Just exhibited unmitigated chutzpah in making accusations is all. Identified yourself as a dishonest and unworthy debater is all.

I am not responsible for what adults do to themselves.

Did you see the earlier post about the adult murdering his 2 year old boy with a demolition tool because he got high on some strong weed? Do you have no idea how many cases there are of people abusing/abandoning children as a result of their usage of drugs? Here's another one.

I utterly reject that old Libertarian saw that this is just a case of adults harming themselves. No, it is not. Somebody has to pay the bill for these people, and that in and of itself constitutes a recurring harm to others.

However, your offer to take responsibility reveals a guilty conscience.

I have no guilty conscience over that incident whatsoever. The child was just in an unfortunate situation brought on by being born to dope smoking/dealing parents. If anyone is to blame for that child getting injured by the police, it is the dope smoking parents that behaved in such a way as to attract police attention.

Once again, you libertarians are trying to shift blame away from where it belongs. It belongs with the dope smokers, not the police, though the police could have handled the event more competently.

Says who?

The parents were never accused of anything; parents and child were staying in a home whose owner was fingered by an informant - though no drugs were found on him or in his home. Is there anyone else you'd care to baselessly slur in this matter?

Bulls hit. Your offer to take responsibility belies that statement.

This is a public forum read all over the world. When you make a claim like that about non-public figures, it would behoove you to back up that claim or retract it.

Can you do so?
