It's not enough to kill the perps, you have to kill somebody helpless that's important to them. Torture a man's wife and small child then give him a gun with no bullets!!!

Wow. Classy. The way to combat terror is to be a terrorist?

Suffering the sins of the father on the son has been recognized as unjust since Old Testament times, and probably earlier.

I think you guessed it by now I am a very ethical person albeit not a very moral one.

Do you understand the difference between morality and ethics?

Morality is an innate sense of what is right by ourselves and others.

Ethics is an attempt to codify morality into an organized system of knowledge.

If you think you're ethical but not moral, then you care more about following the rules than you do about what the rules are supposed to achieve.

I don't need police if I can carry a weapon to defend myself.

And what if, God forbid, someone rapes and murders someone you love? Do you and your weapon have the resources to find justice? If your answer is yes, then you are truly scary. The rest of us have evolved beyond your vigilante philosophy.

Where can I sign up to carry a gun, not pay the police, not pay for schools, not pay for libraries (I actually buy my books, don't rent them), but pay for firemen?

Uh ... nowhere? You can't have everything the way you want it.
