2. What Zimmerman did in Florida was 100% wrong. Zimmerman was a coward.

Nov 2012

and the NRA lobby group needs to be abolished.

Now, I realize this analogy might not readily be seen

but it is 100% the same as your scenerio above.

There is a third party police- the UN
There is a third party police-the courts

vigilantism should never be tolerated, neither should anarchy

and the sad truth is, sometimes militants hide behind citizens or use them as shields.

Arafat should have accepted Clinton's offer. That he didn't, got him killed.
HOWEVER, there are a majority of Jews (I am Jewish myself) that want peace in the mideast.

So did Rabin.
and a fellow Jew shot him dead (damn freakin'WMDs are guns, aren't they? Manufactured solely to kill).

A family does NOT have the right to kill someone else.
A family has the right to ask the police to investigate, arrest, then a jury to convict and sentence the person to jail.
but a family does NOT have the right to take justice in their own hands

I would rather throw some $$$ and love and hugs and kisses
instead of resorting to violence

and the question itself reeks of the Dukakis shakedown takedown by CNN moderator of that debate Shaw.

How about this one. A family decides they own another family's house because of an old myth. Walk away Nov 2012 #8
That's even more ignorant than the OP. Congrats! Behind the Aegis Nov 2012 #9
Care to explain why? redgreenandblue Nov 2012 #13
Anyone actually familiar with the conflict doesn't need an explanation. Behind the Aegis Nov 2012 #14
Or can't give one? nt Walk away Nov 2012 #17
Or can't create a descent analogy so falls on ignorance and false propaganda. Behind the Aegis Nov 2012 #18
