There is a little thing called self-defense...I think you americans/aussies are keen on that one with all your guns.
If I am in fear of my life...Iīd be justified to strike back at the aggressor....i.e. Israel/palaestine conflict...though I donīt agree with Israel on many counts I find the freedomfighting techniques of the palaestinians to be overly bloody, targeting civilian and fantical.
In my own little struggle agains the neighbor I didnīt feel threatened enough to strike back but let me assure you that my 280 pounds of muscle would have done the trick if I felt threatened enough.
Perhaps you could fill us in on the gun laws in Australia. Are they really that lax? [/QUOTE]Agreed. That's news to me too.
