He said then that excessive force shouldn’t be used just because someone was stealing from you.

Over the years, we’ve had at least 3 notorious incidents of criminals breaking into houses & committing horrific murder .... why should a criminal breaking in get the benefit of the doubt? My attitude is that if someone breaks into my home, they have already demonstrated a complete lack of respect for the law, for the property of others and how am I to know if that extends to a lack of respect for human life? I don’t need to know if they have a gun ... or if they will pick up something in the house such as a knife, or a baseball bat, or a golf club, or a fireplace poker, even a belt or zip ties, etc. If they set foot in my home under those circumstances, I fear for my life and will defend it and I won’t be asking questions or looking to see if they are “armed” first.
Agree completely. As I said, Logic in not an attribute of a Liberal mind.
I have liberal “acquaintances” .... they have told me to my face they want to take MY gun away .... if there are no legal guns, there will be no violent crime (the logic of minds that evidently has as many holes as Swiss Cheese). They also think that anyone “armed” at a school (security, police resource officers, teachers who carry, etc.) does nothing but “frighten the children” so they are totally on board with gun free zones. Of course, when the schools get shot up & kids killed by the mentally ill, their “logic” is that I should give up MY gun.
In the last two years, I have begun purging my social circle of folks like these ... keeps my BP a whole lot lower.
Well said.
And that exact line of thinking should be extended to immigration.
