[Quote No.13357] Need Area: Friends > General
"The first right of every human being is the right of self-defense. Without that right, all other rights are meaningless. The right of self-defense is not something the government bestows upon its citizens. It is an inalienable right, older than the Constitution itself. It existed prior to government and prior to the social contract of our Constitution." - Larry Craig

"A solitary blessing few can find,
Our joys with those we love are intertwined,
And he whose wakeful tenderness removes,
The obstructing thorn that wounds the breast he loves,
Smooths not another's rugged path alone,
But scatters roses to adorn his own." - Unknown

The real winners are those who find less violent ways to solve their disagreements...but unfortunately, sometimes it cannot be avoided.)" - Seymour@imagi-natives.com

It is immoral to help others for this reason. No-one but yourself and the person(s) involved should know of your help to them. You should only help others because it is the right thing to do...and no other reason!]" - Bible, Matthew 6:13
