I disagree. Certainly I would not be able to force a chosen outcome in the way that you, quick-draw-KellyJay, might, but there are other ways to influence the course of events than shooting people.

So if someone confronts you with a gun or some other weapon your harsh
language will disarm them or your martial arts? Since they will have the
weapon and you don’t exactly how would (and everyone forced to follow your
example) stop them from shooting, stabbing, or clubing you?

Lol. Well sure that would work. Let's pass the word around and it should all stop within a couple days I would think.

No, you've got me all wrong, I'm no superhero. In the astonishingly unlikely event of encountering a crazed, armed maniac intent on simply killing me, you're right, I'd have nothing. Are you aware just how unlikely this sort of situation is though?

It is just as unlikely that a crazed, armed maniac intent on simply killing school children will enter a school too, matey. 😏

I hope your right, but I bet more than a few people made that assumption that
were wrong.

You're undoubtedly right, but I bet a helluva lot more people have died because some guy thought pulling a gun on an armed intruder was a good idea.

More died becasue some guy/s thought being an intruder was the thing to do.

I'd bet that if the householder puts his hands up and lets the intruder take whatever he likes then in most if not all cases the intruder walks away alive and the householder stays at home, alive.

So "most cases" you okay with rapes and deaths on those times that it didn't
go the way you'd like? Those deaths and rapes are just something we should
all live with?
