Cancelled Commissioner
I'm very glad that we don't have handguns easily accessable in Australia.
I may regret this statement if we ever experience a war on our own soil.
But until then, I'm happy to let our police officers carry for us.
Amen brother - let the magistrate do its God appointed job.
How will the magistrate stop the rapist in that moment?
I am all for the magistrate doing his God appointed job, but I am also for the father doing his God appointed job in protecting his family. If we work on the assumption that the family is a training school for the commonwealth, then I do not see how you can assume that it is wrong for a father to protect his natural family with physical force but okay for a civil magistrate to protect his civil family with physical force. How is one any more vengeful than the other?
