I believe society would be improved if dueling were legal.
Free Speech — say what you want to say. I can’t go to court and stop you. But, if I am truly “offended” by your remarks, I can challenge you to a duel.
I think there would be a lot fewer “offended” people.
Yep. And potentially are lot fewer "offenders," as in offenders/offended men only do it once.
Also, "an armed society is a polite society." (or used to be)
No.
Nowadays too many people ‘offended’ by anything. We have people climbing thru drive-thru windows because they are out of something or “didn’t get enough” of something.
It won’t work in a culture where so many are offended by so much. Too many folks not trying to offend will be targeted by those who are perpetually offended by everything.
Raceguns. Laser sights. Yikes
Muzzle loaders duels had a certain logic to them.
