Re: Liberty Dollar office raided

[ QUOTE ] There are people here who actually believe police action of any kind = ZOMG! Nazis! [/ QUOTE ] Indeed,where their reasoning leads to is the conclusion that the Liberty Dollar folks would have been :morally" justified in using force -- including deadly force -- against the agents. [/ QUOTE ] "agents" isn't a distinct moral category is someone morally justified to use force if someone comes onto their property to kidnap them with a deadly weapon that they intend to use if that person attempts to run away? If I came into your home and attempted to do so to you would you be morally justified using force against me? It can't be right for one and wrong for the other. |

You cannot, contrary to the beliefs of the ACist, shoot someone for the "forceful" act of walking into your office. |

You're now officially beyond help. |

Re: Liberty Dollar office raided
Another question would it have been morally acceptable for me personally to hire some people off the street to go and do exactly what those agents did?

Where they are now is not information available to me, as none of them are presently incarcerated, and they're all at home or wherever they choose to be. |

Re: Liberty Dollar office raided
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Just to make my position clear, this sort of "just doing their jobs" bull [censored] justifies anything evil. If "just doing your job" justifies breaking into private property with guns drawn and confiscating the private property of people for the incredible offense of stamping little bits of metal into circles, then it justifies breaking into private property with guns drawn and violating anyone's rights for any reason at all. [/ QUOTE ] I agree with you that the search warrant itself was wrong, but I believe you're incredibly ill informed if you believe every law enforcement officer is in total agreement over every search warrant they serve, and I also believe you're full of [censored] if you're going to tell me you would work for many years to make it to the top of your given career's ladder, then defiantly quit your job because you were told to perform a routine task that you didn't agree with. You can't honestly expect anyone to buy that idealistic bull [censored]. I just don't see it happening. [/ QUOTE ] ROFLMAO. Funniest post of the decade. Imagine borodog doing something he disagreed with. |
