Place to put my Nonsense Thread.

Killing somebody when the law forbids it doesn’t equate to murder? Excellent point, chief.
You just get worse. This started with you saying that DeSantis's law would allow it. In which I said good. It is my opinion of how the law should be, not what it is.
 
Why would you need to be an expert to understand how diabetes works? You’ve never been around diabetics before?
We're waiting for you to share with us how Type 1 diabetics no longer require insulin for survival.

Not what I said. For you to shoot somebody, your life has to be in danger. Type I diabetics can go without insulin for days and weeks (some, longer). Who in the US lives more than 3 days away from a hospital?

“Diabetes doesn’t work like that” in the sense that somebody stealing a box of insulin isn’t putting you in a life or death scenario.

Or are we talking about a 90 year old woman in the middle of Alaska all alone, who somehow magically was on the path of a porch pirate wandering through the wilderness on the back of a moose?
 
Btw type 1 patients can go about a week without insulin, but they start feeling the effects after about 48 hours. Very highly unlikely they can go weeks.

You are talking about diabetics like every case is the same. It can cause far worse complications for many people, especially old people with other conditions. Diabetic ketoacidosis can occur suddenly and be deadly within hours, but you already knew that. How do you know they haven't already gone without while waiting on their shipment anyway?

So we’re talking about people who like to play Russian roulette with their lives?

And you guys say my examples get oddly specific/extreme lol.
 
Because it says anywhere from hours to at most a week, not fvcking weeks. And do you not know how the world works and things take time to be shipped?


Try again?

“Multiple days, to a few weeks.” Reviewed by a medical doctor.

“they would need to stay on carbohydrate restriction and stay very hydrated,” Kaufman says. But their survival rate is “multiple days, to a few weeks, getting sicker and weaker as time goes on


They have to have been on a specialized diet.


Read the whole article next time, so you don't miss that hypothetical "yea this one guy who survived a couple weeks, just barely because he was on this crazy diet already".
 
This one mental block of Ghost’s is the most intriguing:

Normal person: I don’t think people should get shot for minor crimes.

Ghost: Oh, so you care about criminals more than innocent people?

Normy: No, I just don’t think stealing a lawn ornament is worthy of the death penalty.

Ghost: So you like POS criminals?

Norman: No, who would? But I don’t wish death upon all people I don’t like.

Ghost: Oh, weird, I do.

Do you place no blame on the criminal in a situation like this? Because that's all the he's doing. He's said multiple times he wouldn't shoot someone in that situation. But if someone did, no one should be up in arms and crying about it. You know who didn't care? The guy getting shot.

This is how most of us feel if you get shot robbing somebody, but you have decided to contort it to some random petty theft is totally ok to fit a narrative.
 
Or this one:

Normal: Officers should not shoot people until they have a good reason to.

Ghost: So you want officers to get mowed down in the streets?

Normal: Nah, I just think they should take a second to figure out if they’re shooting at somebody with an AK47 or somebody just moving their toaster.

Ghost: So you want these criminals to just run free and face no consequences while our police officers get ambushed by people with toaster uzi’s?

Normal: I don’t think so. I like police officers and they have a hard job. They should just try to shoot only when they have reason to believe they might get shot or somebody else might get shot (or otherwise killed).

Ghost: you crazy sonofabitch.

It’s doesn’t matter who the blame is on. That doesn’t do anything to justify or not justify killing them.

It’s the criminal’s fault for stealing. If he gets shot, that’s partially the criminal’s fault. It’s the homeowners fault for shooting somebody for a petty crime. Trespassing by itself usually results in zero jail time. Petty theft usually results in zero jail time. Shooting somebody for doing both is a pretty fvcking big leap.

If you wound the thief, the perfectly just outcome would be a prison sentence for the homeowner for attempted murder and either a light prison sentence for the thief and/or fines and community service, depending on criminal record.

You can’t kill people to protect your stuff (different from protecting yourself). And the rules change when we’re talking about a home intruder because the underlying crime is vastly different and intent is different.

Just when I thought you had reached the dumbest of possible dumb. You keep proving that you can get dumber.

I deleted the lengthy version of this post.

Officers are trained in use of force and should act accordingly. They’re held in higher esteem and to a higher standard because of this training. They should be held accountable when they screw up (they often aren’t) and should be trained to minimize the deaths of innocent people, themselves included.
