I’ve never owned a car that needed regular software updates. Have you?

See, the difference between you and me is that you can’t envision “self defense” beyond committing murder in this situation and I can. Many, many other options.
Which makes them the weak one and your claim of self-defense a spurious one. You don’t actually know if you’re in danger.
Okay, but you’re making a completely different argument than the person I am discussing is making. Especially since you mentioned a knife before. You can chase someone like that out of your home without a gun.
Really, most home invaders can be driven out with a baseball bat. The ones that can’t… I guess be prepared to murder them.
Also, with a bat, you’re less likely to kill a family member you think is a criminal you’re defending yourself from.
The solution to all the world’s computing issues is not “blockchain.”
And yet they said they would shoot a starving person breaking into their home to steal a loaf of bread. That doesn’t sound like ‘equally strong’ to me.
I thought this was about shooting people?
You know there are these things called ‘windows’ that you can break easily and climb through, yes?
Also, I thought you were done talking to me. Make up your mind.
That would be one way to weasel out of your lie that I suggested you shouldn’t have a gun.
Not an especially good way to weasel out of it, but…
Sorry, not good enough definitions.
A starving man on death’s door manages to break into your home to steal a loaf of bread. You have a gun and see him do it.
Who is the strong one and who is the weak one there? Who is acting in self-defense there?
And I am happy to explain that if you shot and killed the man in that situation, you would be taking advantage of their weakness.
Then I guess you should have used one of those videos rather than an example where your gun wouldn’t have helped you.
Also, please quote me saying you shouldn’t have a gun, or at the very least implying it.
Interesting how you want me to define terms but haven’t defined them yourself.
You haven’t defined “the strong” or “the weak” or what you mean by “self-defense.”
Maybe start defining your terms first before you demand it of others.
Sorry, you being unable to come up with a good example is not my problem, so your question is moot.
Dude, you’re the one talking about how guns can stop theft and your example was a theft that you were not able to stop with a gun. That’s not my fault.
Ah, so what you mean is that it’s okay for the strong to take advantage of the weak when you’re the strong one.

Who is “the stronger” in a situation where you have a gun and someone else does not?
I hate the reputation fedoras have because I happen to look damn good in a fedora.
Well then aren’t you lucky you had a gun to prevent that theft?
Thanks. I’m glad someone did it. I was going to.
