Great answer. Keep it that way.

No idea what that is.

Do you subscribe to NAP?

I wasn't involved in the original discussion ... but I'll take a stab at it.  Judges are supposed to be representatives of the public, those deemed to be worthy of objectively and morally determining the sentence of the tried party.  More along what we have in the US today at the state and local level, instead of president appointments for life at the federal level garbage that we have today.  NO public official should have a life term without being duly re-elected by the people.

Furthermore, there is always supposed to be a jury of "peers" that are objectively selected by the judge.  Judges should not have the sole ability of determining the guilt or innocence of the tried party, but they ought to be able to throw out objectively determined "frivolous law suites".

Probably not the answer you are looking for.

We haven't been down this path at all. Can you answer the question posed here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3170168

We've been down this path lots of times.  The problem is not guns.  It's culture, or lack thereof.

Can you answer my question please?

Way to revise history, Gun Control 101. Welcome to my ignore list.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/one-killed-in-denmark-mosque-shooting-2346090.html

...and why hasn't is happened yet?

Why would you as a criminal target a school to massacre, when you have AN ENTIRE COUNTRY RENDERED LEGALLY DEFENSELESS?!

btw. in denmark guns are not allowed, but for the police.
We have only had 3 killed by school shooting in the last 10 years, and that was in 1994, and the only incident in Denmark.

A few facts from wikipedia:
USA population: 316,676,000
Isreal population: 8,051,200

Just saying...

The convolution continues.

Threshold: the point at which a stimulus is of sufficient intensity to begin to produce an effect, i.e. a low threshold of pain means you feel pain stimulus sooner than the mean, high pain threshold means you feel it later than the mean.

Killing criminals is only acceptable if they are actively committing aggressive violence, the highest threshold there is, short of suicidal pacifism (as opposed to typical pacifism, where you resolve non-violent disputes with non-violence, which is only possible when your opponent isn't actively trying to kill you, then you do what it takes to live another day, like MLK Jr. did in surrounding himself with guns and white people who could carry them since he was denied his personal right to self-defense by Klan motherfuckers - note that it took a ranged shot to assassinate him, because he didn't have countersnipers on watch).

In a real democracy (where those who count the votes are beyond reproach), whether they will admit it or not, the majority becomes criminals by proxy as they support actively committing aggressive violence. Saying you have "a lower threshold" (point at which the stimulus of other people doing things that you don't like, but don't cause you aggressively violent harm, begins to produce the effect of you killing them or supporting them being killed) "for when killing people is acceptable" and that we should "live with it" is contradictory, as we cannot live with it, only die from it.

Hahaha I love it.Nice post :DDD

maybe i'll get one?

well maybe i have a lower threshold for when killing people is acceptable. live with it.

Please answer the question posed in my last post.

In a typical democracy the one with the most guns (govt and by extension it's cronies) are the big winners as far as I can see.  If you are friendly with (or buy off) politicians you are a winner.
