Hey your Honor, I know I killed that guy, but I shouldn't be found guilty of manslaughter. See, that guy killed my friend. I told the cops, but they didn't go and arrest him or anything. Because of that, it is okay for me to kill him myself.

Umm what are you talking about?

he was giving an example of why you shouldn't take the law into your own hands.. I would of flamed back though, some things are baited

Oh!

In Diablos example in was too extreme...I dont think comparing dissing back with killing is rational.

Yeah, but where I come from, you don't get jailed no matter what you say, so I had to bump it up a notch. But it's a fair comparison.

Ya, I know that.

Some people I guess just have more honor, dignity, pride than others. I guess thats what I could say.

not really :S I mean there's a difference between breaking a law, killing someone, and cursing at someone. i think i would never kill anyone, but there's nothing wrong with a little self defence if your being attacked

I hope you don't mean yourself. By repaying an insult with an insult, you're just as bad as he is.

A "politically correct insult" , is this what you are talking about?

lol, actually there weren't many students who you would class as an ethnic minority at my school, it was all about finding the right balance when you got insulted, and keep your head down the rest of the time.


PS, nice 2000th post

Got'tta love Scotland ehh

P.S.: Thanks, Im close to 2008

I agree that defending yourself if attacked is quite right. But otherwise, if in a situation like Diabolus's (first post on this page) it mostly is about "an eye for an eye". Wouldn't forgiveness would be better at this point as there is also teh saying that "an eye for an eye would make the whole world blind"?

Your opinions.
