But deception is involved, homosexuality isn't a disease or illness that can be cured / changed. Good intentions or not it remains a scam, all this therapy does is teaching the patients to lie to themselves. The very definition of deception.

Why are you telling me this?

Also if shamans are legally allowed to offer surgeon services without any compliance to medical regulations you live in a very fked up place.

I offered you medical research, science, that shows improvement of patient outcomes. If you think that's a bad thing, then I really don't know what to tell you. Then you come back with some ridiculous claim that Shamans cut people? Basically appealing to a nonexistent extreme, a textbook logical fallacy if I ever seen one.

I'm kind of angry that the guy isnt being charged. He killed a guy. He should be in prison. If I accidentally run over someone with my car I'm still going to jail. Granted not as much if was intentional but I'm still serving time

In either case, the consequences depend upon the circumstances.
Morally/Ethically, I don't agree with what happened here. He should have taken the time to identify his target.

But legally, if the gun was legally owned, he has the right of self defense, with a key decider being if he was in reasonable fear for his life. IT sounds like he might have been.

You cant make a self defense case. He was never in harm. A gun owner need to have more discipline in firing their weapon. Aren't you the one always complaining about people not taking responsibility for their actions. GF, my hypocrisy bacon

Trigger discipline should be the first lesson taught and the most important to uphold. Never put your finger on the trigger before identifying your target. Also works for hunting.

Might want to re-read both my earlier posts an the news about the event.

I said he was morally/ethically wrong; as well as exercising poor gunmanship. (Is that a word?)

But the legal claim of self defense seems to have merit. 11:30 PM, at the back door, and apparently at close range, a bush next to the door? not 20 feet away down the driveway.

I can understand being in fear for his life, which is the legal deciding factor. We do have the right to defend our lives.

How come no one is questioning the victim for banging on the door and then hiding in the bushes at 11:30 at night? Doesn't seem to be the smartest thing to do.

No bacon for you.

[jelgate]

It doesn't have merit as the guy's life was never under threat. It defies common sense to think a loved one surprising you as a threat to your life. I'll stop getting bacon when you stop being a hypocrite. Don't think that will stop anytime soon
