Individuals can already give the death sentence out

And im fine with that

Ok u got the last word ill read what u write but im done

being, killed, by, someone, who, mistakenly, identifys, you, as, trying, to, break, the, law, in, a, way, that, gives, them, the, right, to, self, defense, is, not, the, same, thing, to, be, innocent, of, a, crime, and, give, up, your, freedom, to, resist, the, government, to, allow, it, to, render, you, completely, vulnerible, to, them, and, place, your, faith, in, a, fallible, system, of, determining, the, truth, and, be, sentenced, to, death, by, it, without, the, ability, to, defend, yourself, from, it

being killed by the state is more horrifying to me than being attacked and murdered by another person

the choice is between being proven innocent and death, and i cant prove myself innocent by fighting to the death

if a person ever dies because they trust the court system then the court system is what is wrong not them but it is they who will pay for it, and it is they who will feel wrong. its potentially the worse thing that can happen to you

other deaths may be more painful or gory, but dying because of the system makes your death meaningless and an expression of a failure of millions of people that wont ever even know it

its not just a matter of life and death, its a matter of society, if society is to exist it cannot sacrofice the innocent for any reason, otherwise that is literally its failure. my ass could just live out in the forest killing anything i see and have just as good results in how my life is spent on this earth

well said

Alright, @Wally has been warned for '**Mass mention**'.

Lol rip wally

lol

Sup? U got my attention

Well, like I said, I was thanking you guys for your feedback on my little rant on the stupid video lol

I was going to read through it, but maybe you can sum up the main points that were made?

Well we hyper focused on one small video. I stopped at the 13 min mark

Nah we only talked gun control

I see

And there where too many things said in the video to dissect it all. Its better to take it piece by piece and ask

Well, the way I see it, is that I don't think there should be any force or coercion on any sort of mass scale to try to control the ditribution and use of guns.

Would you rather... Cut income tax or sales tax?

Neither

The budget should be balanced.

I think both should be, but if I had to choose, income tax.

If we need to be taxed more so be kt

But if we reduce taxes, reduce spending

I stand on the "taxation is theft" platform.

Reducing taxes while keeping spending the same is reckless

Taxation is theft but there is problems with that statement

Ill take the statist side

For the sake of having something to argue over

Okay. What is the problem with the statement?

A form if centralization is neccesary for a society with a free market to have cohesion

Without a governing body, a free market would either make an oligarchy or total anarchy

Silicone valley being a good example

Likewise, most average people are getting a good deal

If one had to choose however where would you prioritize.

Regulation

Only because markets are so strong.

I think sales taxes are what I would work on eliminating first.
