Killing the Hypothetical
#9
RE: Killing the Hypothetical
I would absolutely have no qualms about killing someone that was attacking my family. I'm not saying I would go out of my way to kill the person, but whether or not they survive my attack would not cross my mind as I was protecting my family.

I don't own a gun, but if someone was threatening me or my family, I'd probably get one(may have to subvert a few laws there, but defending my family's worth it). As it is in the community I live in right now, there's no real need to have one.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
