What was that about not refuting things, again?
>His post implied his karate moves would keep away all bad guys.
What part of "eventually, somebody will shoot you" implies that one guy is fighting a thousand terrorists with karate moves? What is this? Gun fu?
>I was telling him that he'd be dead if there were a thousand terrorists.
You're still framing this as a roving band of 1000 terrorists picking on one random person because reasons, and ignoring the part where we're talking about social organization. What part of your scenario seems like a realistic consideration? In what world do you expect 1000 terrorists to get together to pick on one lone undefended guy, then disband to avoid the social reprecussions of being fucking terrorists?
>means you're using a very biased and one-sided and rather rare example to showcase your point
Tort law? Is… biased? One-sided? Rare? Like, what the fuck are you even on about? I mean, that's grammatically coherent, but that sentence is far removed from reality. Tort law is abundant throughout the developed world, and many legal systems in the past were centered around it to the point of having nothing else.
>putting all criminals on the same pedestal regardless of the crime is very unjust.
For fuck's sake, nobody here is talking about the same consequences for every crime. Go re-read what I wrote about that. The fact that they're not a separate class of criminal doesn't mean that stealing a grape gets the same punishment as serial murder. It just means that you don't throw "terrorists" in a separate classification of criminals. They're still responsible for whatever damages they've caused, whether those are multiple deaths or a petty theft. If you are a tortfeasor (one who has harmed another person), then you are responsible for compensating the victim for the harm you have done. No need to create an elaborate taxonomy.
I can't believe I have to explain this.
>Because there is no distinction between crimes
Never said that. See above.
>and performing a "criminal act" takes away your rights,
Never said that, either, and that's not even remotely true. The man attacking you with a knife still has rights; you're just perfectly within yours to use violence up to and including killing him to end that attack.
>governmental laws are being discussed.
Where the hell did you get that impression? It sure as hell wasn't from anything I've said. The immorality and waste of prisons was mentioned, and you responded by asking what we do with terrorists, at which point we started discussing the social dynamics (not the government policy) of stopping "bad guys". You're trying to poke holes in the notion that a roving band of miscreants isn't long for this world by deciding that there are a thousand of them and only one of their victims, and I'm pointing out the utter absurdity of your approach.
Aren't you at least a little bit embarrassed to be trying to criticize things people never said? I mean, your interpretations are flirting with being the opposite of what you're responding to.

>That's not an assumption, you literally wrote that.
No; you can't read. I defy you to identify precisely which statements directly indicate the ideas you're attributing to all these guys.

To be fair, she was Russian. I'm given to understand that they like long-ass books, and she learned English as a second language. Doesn't make the book any better, obviously, but it does give some context.
