Are you Liberal or Conservative?

The Difference Between The Liberal and Conservative "Debate" Over The War On Terrorism:
Question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes around the corner and is running at you while screaming obscenities.
In your hand is a Glock 9mm and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?
_________________________________________________

Liberal Answer:

Well, that's not enough information to answer the question!
Does the man look poor or oppressed?
Have I ever done anything to him that is inspiring him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
What does the law say about this situation?
Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me or would he just be content to wound me?
If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? This is all so confusing!
I need to debate this with some friends for a few days to try to come to a conclusion.

I'd ask why you have your wife and small children on a deserted street. Interesting take on things.

chuckcoger · 08-01-03, 02:37 AM

Bang, Bang, pause, LOL, Bang, Bang.
Which means
Right Knee, Left Knee, a pause for effect, Laugh at this guy for bringing a knife to a gun fight, double tap to the head :) and that's just me being conservative with my ammo:)

What on earth are you doing down that alley with your family and a Glock?

Another problem:

You are in the same alley, with your family and the Glock for some reason, and there is a guy sitting beside a dumpster. He has a big coat on so you can't see if he's got something under there or if he's just trying to keep warm (it's 30F outside).

What do you do?

1) Talk to the guy, see if he's allright, offer him some help.

2) Watch him carefully while going by at a safe distance, ready to shoot if he tries something funny.

3) Turn around, there must be another way to get to where you want.

4) Bang!

You figure out which one's which.

This question is neither for Liberals or Conservatives - It simply plays on one's nature to defend their family.

To answer the question . . . .

*BANG*

;)

first I would have to pee my pants....then shoot to injure but not kill and get the knife from him.

TopDog · 08-01-03, 09:01 AM

This is why we Europeans are scared of Mr. Bush... his got the weapons, and shoots before he asks...

USA is getting almost as dangerous to the world as the Soviet was before!

Let the flames begin

stabb · 08-01-03, 09:01 AM

I wouldn't have a P.O.S. Glock first of all. But I would lay him to waste with my Baretta 9mm.

and then a little further up the road, I would be calling the rest of TopDog's family to give them some bad news :)

Heil Bush!

KnightAnole · 08-01-03, 09:37 AM

Holy Crap! Berretta, shoot to wound, Europe is AFRAID of the U.S.! Berretta's are bricks with no stopping power (H&K 40 in my hand), you're quite the marksman indeed if you have the composure to aim at other than center mass to wound someone running at you and your family with a knife, Europe is AFRAID of the U.S - Europe is the way it is now - not all speaking German, or Russian for that matter, because of the U.S! How soon they forget.

[FLAME]
1. Actually its the terrorists who shoot without warning...

2. Why should President Bush need to ask? We don't need no stinkin' permission....

[/FLAME]

bigmac110 · 08-01-03, 09:50 AM

I am personally glad that we have a president with the balls to back up what he says instead of them being in some interns mouth.

btw...I have accidently taken my family into the wrong section of town before by getting on the wrong bus and I wish I had a gun with me then...the question is valid and the answer is....BANG!!!!

:-P

Haven't you guys ever seen Batman? lol

Call the family? Nahhhh.... just drop the parts off at the front door :D

BTW - Thanks for bringin' back my favorite avatar :love:

Me, I'd have to answer the original question like this:

Bang - 1 to the knee
Bang - 1 to the other knee
Bang - 1 to the elbow
Bang - 1 to the other elbow

Dude is completely immobilized.

"Here honey, take the gun and the kids, I've got some work to do."

{Wife and children leave the alley - I walk up to said would be attacker with the biggest s*&# eatin' grin on my face you've ever seen and pick up his knife}

Slice - "Ooh sorry was that you're finger?"
Slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice, slice - "Hope you didn't need those other fingers, trust me you won't."
Then I'd cut off his tongue, ears, b(*&@ and D@^#.
Now he's pretty hurtin' and I have some feeling for the guy so I'd kick him repeatedly in the skull with my steel toe boots until I got sloppy grey matter all over the place.
Finally, I'd bag him up and ship him back to his family in EUROPE!!!!!

Ya know, I'm actually a very nice guy, and also more or less a liberal.

But ya know what else?

God, Guns, & Guts Made This Country Great!!!!!

See, I even have a dove, on my signature.
