No. Have the competence to recall your own positions. I’m not going to do that for you. I’ve spent enough time on you already. I thought you were an awful human before, but you’ve outdone yourself by keeping this going and refusing to back off of your absurd position.

Are you still going? You went around and called people evil and a variety of other nasty things for having the audacity to support the law and question your assertion that these people were going to die if they didn’t loot these stores. Prove it or GTFO. You were sure enough to be extremely nasty to people for…

Haha you’re now going to deny your entire position because I’ve destroyed it. Nice. I realize that you’re keeping this going because you are not capable of admitting that your position was based on a fallacy. But I really hope that offline you’re reflecting on your position and how wrong you were to attack those who…

It is central - because the article - the thing we are discussing - is about someone calling the police on looters. Your position has been that that’s evil because the looters needed those things to survive. Of course, we now know that you have no proof of that whatsoever.

Why do they have to knock on my door? Because otherwise how would I know they exist and are in need. If I’m home when they make known their need, they don’t have to take anything from me, I would gladly give it to them. If I’m not home, and for whatever reason my home is the only place they can obtain a necessity they…

We could go on forever if you are just going to cherry-pick my replies and refuse to face your own logic. You are asserting that people in need have a right to property that is not theirs. Why do they need to knock on your door? Either the property is rightfully theirs or it isn’t. Why do they need to take it from…

You seem to be confused. I’m not making a moral judgment about people’s willingness to give to other people in need. I’m making a moral judgment about people taking what they need. If someone was in desperate need of a necessity, and the only way for them to get it for whatever reason was to break into my house and…

What would having a negative account balance have to do with anything? The point I was making is I, personally, do not value my ownership of things over another human being’s life, and if one came into conflict with another, I’d gladly relinquish ownership of my things (even if done without my permission).

I did read your reply. Show me your negative bank account balance, you hypocrite.

You are inventing a scenario. You have assumed this is why people are breaking into grocery stores. Do you know that? Show me proof that people are looting because they are starving and about to die and have no other options. You can’t because it is completely fabricated.

What if I am a drug addict, and because of my addiction I spend every dime I ever earn or steal on more drugs and not on food. I am now starving, I have no money, and I couldn’t possibly earn any quick enough to buy the food that I need right now. I meet your criteria of “dire need.” Can I break into your home and…

I’m trying to get you to understand how dangerous and flawed your logic is.

Out of curiosity, how far does that logic extend? For example, if I’m really hungry, do I have the right to steal food? What if I’m broke and hungry?

Yeah, still waiting on an answer regarding the flood insurance policy that’s going to pay out based on an inventory list and completely empty shelves.

It all makes sense now. You’re full of self hate. Let it out!

Ah yes, the “Think of the children!” reply. Good talk.

lol I’m “fundamentally morally broken” for defending the law. Right on.

Do YOU understand insurance? You realize the more people use insurance, the higher the premiums become, right? So next time you go to the grocery store and wonder why your groceries are just a little more expensive - it might just be because their insurance premiums went up.

All of the people attacking you for your perfectly reasonable statement are making me lose faith in humanity quickly. I bet they’d feel differently if it were their home or their store or their stuff.

LOL so you are telling me that Apple has never issued a bug fix? Come on.
