    You don't view criminals as human waste?

    You’d have to do it twice given the redundancy in the cockpit.
    Have aircraft been brought down with a single rifle round? Yes, more than one, but...

    So says one with more than an ounce of ethical responsibility...
    I tend to wonder why the knowledge is being sought, and though anyone that doesn’t already know, is unlikely to learn enough online and possess the skills, why feed the outside possibility that someone observing might? There’s lots of things I don’t explain to my kids and reasons I don’t.
    It’s also why I don’t share other types of weapons knowledge in an uncontrolled forum.... I guess I am not a trusting soul.

    So if someone brutally raped a member of your family, tortured them and killed them, you seriously wouldn't consider that person to be human waste?

    "Criminal" is a state designation. That designation is irrelevant. Jaywalkers are criminals. People that don't pay parking tickets are criminals.

    Just because a state seems someone a criminal (like Ed Snowden) doesn't mean they are bad. I'd be fine with Ed Snowden moving in next door.

    I've known many a criminal in my day that we're good people.

    So you'd be perfectly okay with brutal rapists from all over the world moving into your neighborhood?

    I've given my opinion on why it should be. Why can't you give your opinion on why it SHOULDN'T be?

    "Brutal rapist" moves into neighborhoods every day. If one moved in my neighborhood, it is government that prevents the neighborhood from driving them away. So wxculease excuse me if I fail to see the validity of your line of questioning.

    Government has the monopoly of force.

    Well if they are found guilty of rape, then they will go to prison. So they will be out of the neighbourhood.

    If that's the case, then how could they move into my neighborhood? According to your statement, they would already be in prison.

    Likely they’d be dead and I’d be on my way to prison.

    That’s the rumor, not necessarily how it works.

    I think that I know you well enough to know that you aren't in favour of open borders either.

    The idea is that they're a brutal rapist, but they've either not been caught or they've served their time. Would you be happy for the possibility that they move into your neighbourhood? I'm also wondering if you are pro-illegal immigration.

    And I would be willing to help out, like getting out my airboat and taking them out on a evening tour of the Glades.

    The idea was poorly conceived. Specify which one.

    I am anti- government and against popular sovereignty. I support freedom of association so I am "pro-illegal immigration" as you put it.
