My apologies as I can see how this, 'not in my experience', can easily be misinterpreted for what I actually said which was "Not that I'm speaking from experience just upon a reasonable authority I know.". So which bit of, "Not that I'm speaking from experience just upon a reasonable authority I know.", did you not understand? As I thought this would make it clear that I was speaking my opinion about an opinion that I considered a reasonable authority.None of it you seem to be saying you are an authority on something, the question was merely meant to discern why you feel you are.
No shame at all.Not to upset you and cause you to go off into a shame spiral.
What question? As your premise was false, and why ask it if you don't care?Answer the question or don't. I care not.
That right is it? So you ignore the colour sergeant and urban combat instructor and the para and the police-officer do you? But that Green Jacket, and the other two military types, have done multiple combat tours and engaged in multiple urban combat situations and are all trained to proficiency in the use and application of firearms, so I think I'll be taking their opinions as being of reasonable authority about such things.No offense but a Lance-Corporal in the Green jackets, really that is who you consider an expert. You have a lot to learn if I might say.
You say this often and personally I have little care about your cares or about your pet peeves and imaginary interlocutors.No one cares. Seriously no one will care, perhaps that's why the world is a bad place, no one cares, perhaps it's because some people are so gullible they will believe any self imposed Pedagogue or Demagogue, who knows...
You are hard of sight aren't you and you make it up as you go along. It was four people I know and ones with an opinion based upon experience and as such I'll be taking their word for it.If philosophy is about logically discerning "truth" though, I think it would pay not to be suckered in by the first person with an opinion on something you run across. No offense, but waaaa?
p.s.
Your use of 'sensei' brought up memories of two conversations I heard when I was 'wasting' time in the martial arts. The wisdom of two sifus in different martial arts;
Student: "Sifu, what happens if my assailant has a gun?"
Sifu1: "You're dead my friend."
Student: "Sifu, what should I do if my attacker has a knife?"
Sifu2: "Run, or pick up a weapon".
Wise words from the west.
