If somebody breaks in your house and you defend yourself by a knife, you're not a terrorist, that's just self defense. And in general, Palestinians are not terroist, avoid tabloids , discrimnation, and porpagandic medias, it makes us (Americans) look ignorant.

why would you be a racist for fighting a burglar?\n\nsounds like a strange question.\n\nIf you stood there shouting abuse at him while he picked up your TV and ran out the house, you´d be a complete idiot.

If you kill me for no other reason than I went to work that day, you are a terrorist.\n\nIf I kill you because you killed a bunch of people for no other reason than they went to work that day, I am not a terrorist.  Even if I have to kill a bunch of people that you put in the way as cannon fodder.\n\nIt's really not that hard.

You have the right to own weapons to defend yourself

no it shouldnt.  we have a right to protect ourselves.  if some one was breaking into my house and tried to kill me i would be greatful that i had that right.  And besides, I think its like banning alcohol.  We did that and that caused more crime and problems than it solved.  I think the same thing would happen, more crime, fewer answers.

I figure it this way, If you are the enemy to your enemy, You must be a Terrorist to the terrorist.\n\nOh and there is the fact that it scares them to think you might shoot back.  (Terrorist)

cool idea, but how do we differentiate between what is and isn't a weapon?  are kitchen knives weapons?  i don't think so, but they're used in more than a few murders per year.  same goes with many other things, on down to a rock.

A terrorist is a person who intimadates others by means of psycological and/or physical means. They want others afraid of them.\n\nFrom the time man began on this planet there were terrorists. You can see a good example of this in school yard bullies.\n\nI am afraid they are not going away and will be around as long as mankind exists.\n\nTerrorists do not always kill or blow themselves up and you can find plenty of them in all countries of the world and in all societies.

Does not matter even if it is not a friend, the laws surrounding the act of 'SELF DEFENCE' govern this.\n\nIf you see somebody being attacked, threatened, robbed, you are allowed to use 'reasonable force' in order to stop that attack - this is classified as SELF DEFENCE - even if you do not know the person that you are defending.  \n\nThe big question is what can be construed as REASONABLE FORCE, for example, if you see somebody being beaten up by somebody else, pull out your gun and shoot them, that is nor reasonable.  However if you try to stop the person from beating up the other person, and in doing this the person that you have stopped is injured or dies, this can be accounted as REASONABLE FORCE - but helps to have a good lawyer to!

An act of terrorism can be carried out by one person with a primitave explosive device and a will to do harm.  There is no way that any entity, no matter how good their intelligence is, is going to completely erradicate this.\n\nExplosives can be made out of ordinary chemicals and agents that you might have around your house right now.  All it takes is one person to make a bomb and detonate it.  A few people working together wouldn't necessarily be catchable either if they're smart about how they communicate.\n\nThe idea of terrorists coming from overseas and talking extensively about their plans over the phone and in public is just silly.  It simply isn't necessary for them to do that.

It is a tricky situation to protect yourself and your family, here in Kansas, a man shot and killed an intruder, he was free from federal prosecution, but he could have been held on civil charges by the intruder's family.\nIt is also true that if your dog bites an intruder, or he gets hurt on your property(cuts his arm breaking the window) you can be sued, also if you shoot him it cannot be in the back or it is consider that he is "running away" even if he is facing the wall your stereo is on.\nThe laws need to be changed to protect the people in general, and not the criminals.

omg...you are a terrorist aren't you? This sounds like something a terrorist would say right before he blows some s.h.i.t UP.

.I do not think any one that threatens people should own a gun, specially if you have proof that he/she is threatening. but even if he/she doses not own a gun a neighbor can kill with many other instruments.
