Those people think that law enforcement works like I dream of Jeannie where you blink your eyes and the police are there to protect and serve. When in fact, they show up 20min after you already bled out. I on the other hand protect myself and use law enforcement for clean-up.

Nobody who has ever killed anybody in self defense talks like this.

"American President" with Michael Douglas

Quote:
"The other piece of legislation is the crime bill. As of today, it no longer exists. I'm throwing it out. I'm throwing it out and writing a law that makes sense. You cannot address crime prevention without getting rid of assault weapons and hand guns. I consider them a threat to national security, and I will go door to door if I have to, but I'm gonna convince Americans that I'm right, and I'm gonna get the guns."

What? the part about thinking the police can actually protect you or the part about a person prtecting themselves (kill or be killed) and then calling the police to handle the paper work and everything else that goes with a dead body.

So is using the term clean-up disrespectful to the criminal breaking into homes to steal, murder, and rape...or is it simply saying that police are only good for janitor work.

It shows you give no gravity to the implications of taking human life and is disrespectful to the status and duties of law enforcement. Real life isn't like Dirty Harry or Death Wish, you can't just blast away somebody who threatens you, have the cops mop it up with Lysol, and then get on with your life all within the hour.

I have great sympathy for all the innocent muslims being killed by drone and wrongful contacts...I have compassion for the people in this country that will steal for food and take big risk to support there family...but i dont give a shit for murders and rapist and those are the only two kind that would ever bother a guy like me and my wife.
