Don't worry your little head about that.

I wonder how someone can be blind enough to believe that the yanks really run their own country, and then blame them for everything?

I told you that executions in America don't actually save money on taxes, and you reply by telling me that big screen TVs are more expensive. I don't get it.

Militia by any other name, is government, for a militia governs the individual's God-given right to bear arms and self-defense, (more accurately stated as arms being a defense of God-given rights) which is important since the police don't have a legal responsibility to protect your life.Science Fan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 05, 2018 5:06 pmWalker: Gun control laws are not unconstitutional. There is no such thing as an absolute right under the Constitution. This is why the right to vote can be denied felons, for example, or the right to life can be denied convicted murderers, as another example. It's also true that the Second Amendment is misinterpret by both the left and the right. The right that the second amendment established was the obligation to be armed, so that one could participate in a state militia. That's what gave the government originally the authority to call citizens to arms and serve in the militia and also to make sure that they were armed so they could form the militia. Is that original right even being discussed these days? No. We simply deny the original intent and meaning behind the Constitution, and then go about interpreting its meaning in some other way.
There are no such things as God-given rights. As the saying goes, that's nonsense on steroids.
No, it's not absurd.Science Fan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 05, 2018 6:18 pmWalker: That makes no sense. Because I didn't create my life, I have a God-given right? That's absurd. Prove God even exists. You can't. All of your rights come from a government. You have rights, for example, as a citizen. There are no God-given rights that are legally enforced in any court of law. Unless you think a Sharia court is going to enforce your so-called God-given rights, but, I have a feeling you don't support such actual religious courts.
I think the context of the SCOTUS decision was, someone called the cops for protection, and the cops said, naw.Science Fan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 05, 2018 6:12 pmThere are no such things as God-given rights. As the saying goes, that's nonsense on steroids.
As far as the police not having an obligation to protect you, that's not true. You are taking the decision out of context. One does not have a civil suit against a police officer for failing to protect one, including being harmed by an escaped prisoner. That is a far cry from stating that police are not there to protect you. It's just that the legal mechanisms for enforcing police protection do not include liability for civil lawsuits based on negligence. One could, however, definitely sue if the police refused to protect someone because of their skin color, as an example.
