"I think you distorted my position in your post to which this is a reply" In the post to which you are replying, I didn't mention your name. The post to which I was replying was not from you. So I'm not sure where you get the idea that I am 'distorting your position'. Nevertheless, I am pleased that you specifically disclaim association with the Libertarian Party. I don't see how anyone who would take the position that murder is ok if done by a family member could engage in a rational discussion. Hey, my dad is way old, and I'll get a nice chunk of change when he goes providing he doesn't use it up on nursing home bills and medical expenses. Is it ok for me to go whack him? After all, we are related so I'd guess you'd take the position that the gov't should not worry about that. After all, you said, "People killing each other inside a family is private stuff, imho." Message 15126971 However, I won't completely shut my mind to the possibility that I've missed something, and that some 'rational' case for violating the rights of others outside of the self defense exception exists.
