To: Respond Code Three

“Let’s say there is a homeowner who believes in carrying a firearm on his person, and he believes in using deadly force to protect himself and his property. Suddenly he is confronted by an armed burglar. The homeowner draws his pistol and fires, missing the suspect. The suspect returns fire, killing the homeowner. By your creed, “you really could care less” because: “Live by the sword, die by the sword.”

Not at all...

The cops are government sponsored organized crime. They murder unarmed people. ALL (not just the cop that pulled the trigger) must be held responsible.

If the homeowner shot an unarmed burglar, that could be different. I’m not against anyone going up against an armed suspect in a firefight. That would be self defense. That’s not what is happening.

Let's change the scenario then.

A woman is walking down the sidewalk a couple of blocks from her house. A male jumps out of the bushes and punches her in the stomach, knocking the wind out of her and she falls to her knees. He rips off her blouse and bra. She manages to get a pistol from her purse but he grabs it and kills her with her own handgun. By your creed, “you really could care less” because: “Live by the sword, die by the sword.” She was armed and he wasn't.
