I don't know, but breaking into a home or property, stealing someone else's property or causing harm to another person without justification (self defense) is pretty straight forward. Also, I don't have to shoot someone from preventing a crime. Just the simple implication that lethal force is an option may be enough to stop the crime in question.

I sometimes wonder if the loss of this as a deterrent is how we end up in violence spirals.

In theory, if you raise your gun to a potential criminal, and they respond in kind, and they’re more willing to shoot than you, you end up with a lot of folks foolhardy enough to pull triggers. I mean, the threat of violence is super real in South Chi, but it doesn’t seem to deter as one would hope.

police enforce the laws they agree with

Not all of them,the ones I know/knew were a reflection somewhat of society.Paul Newman portrayed this pretty well in Fort Apache:The Bronx IMO

Really?  I know a lot of Republicans.  None of them are racists, bigots, or homophobes.

I don't agree with a lot of their views (just as I don't agree with a lot of the views my Democrat friends hold), but I wouldn't characterize any of the ones I know, using those words.

I hope you understand I was responding to a previous post tongue in cheek

Another guy who would no doubt advocate for thought crimes, arresting people for what they post.

I asked a question because I wanted to know an answer. If you wanna be a jerk because it’s fun, buzz off.

Or else what, you'll accuse me of having another child bride?

Stay classy, and always play the victim. 

Where do you do that? It certainly isn't here, where you enthusiastically carry water for Joe Biden of all people.

Well, if any liberals want to arrest people, I may argue with them. But the prevailing view here is yours - when it comes to other people, there is no government action too strong, and when it comes to you, any government action is tyranny. So I argue with that.

You just played the victim and chose not to be classy.

I want to keep things civil. After a long back and forth, in which you got pretty uncivil, you informed me I was just that easy to troll. So if you want to be uncivil until someone responds in kind, you effing got it. If it hurts your feelings, well, you build the world around you. I avoided saying something gross for a whole, but you wanted to troll me into it, and eventually you did. Congrats!
