[quote mattkime]Relax Tats, nobody is going to take yer guns.
I don't own "guns".
And the quotes above from our founding fathers were chosen based on the insight they give on the concept of what "property rights" meant to them and the lengths to which they believed citizens should go to protect those rights. The fact that arms are mentioned is coincidental since the quotes were found using "property" as a key word.
And my question was sincere. I wonder to what degree they would think people should go to protect their property. I think she was stupid as I outlined above, but I do think that the possession of personal property is a fundamental human right. Is disabling a vehicle with a handgun a reasonable action to take in order to feel secure in your property? in your life? I better stop now as I am treading in territory that will move this thread to the other side.
