I don't trust the state to decide who lives and dies. I also know that a life sentence is often shortened. Many argue that a life sentence is a more severe than death. If we don't trust the state to administer death, why trust them to administer life sentences? Murder should be prevented by allowing people to conceal & carry weapons so murderers can no longer pinpoint defenseless victims. Murderers should be identified as outcasts by freely competing agencies, & left to struggle on their own.
I'll never understand the way people vilify "for profit" entities. Every human on this earth is a "for profit" entity. They seek value, exchanging countless things they value less for countless things they value more. And by doing so, make a profit. That's why they look for sales at the supermarket. Government is a "for profit" entity. Politicians seek power, re-election, pay increases, book deals, etc. Bureaucrats seek power, job security, benefits, etc. Everyone seeks profit.
When people say "for profit" theyre usually referring to a business that competes with others to sell a product or service for a price greater than the cost of production. In this case, price & profit serve as vital numerical indicators that precisely measure how well the company is meeting consumer desires so it can adjust accordingly. Conversely public services have no price system or profit with which to measure this. So they drive blind to our needs & desires & thus fail to meet them.
Great video. The part of one nation under god. I believe in being tolerant, but it would be nice if religious people could also be tolerant of atheists, as well. I mean, to be fair, there are some theists out there who are tolerant, but there doesn't seem like there are enough people who are. From what I've seen on youtube, anyway.
Oh yes, the "audience"... Damnit, this isn't a "debate", it's a petty little argument, hardly the crowning jewel of intellectual discourse.
When your argument depends upon the intelligence of your audience rather than the validity of your arguments, then you know it's bs from the beginning.
the thing i hate is the whole poisoning the well shit he goes on about and now everyone is like "OH YEA dERP DErp I LIKE HTWW NOW CUZ TF00t PoISOneD th3 WELL LULZ. LOGICAL FALLACY HTWW AUTOMATIC RIGHT"
and htww does it himself >:(
i think logical fallacy is a hot topic on youtube and everyone loves to call people on them, but they get blinded by it. but what can you expect HTWW said it himself hes a master-debater.
i know he is. but your wasting your time. users with that many subscribers don't watch video responses like this. your better off feuding with someone that will actually see your response, or just making videos about your opinions with tags in them that you think people will click on.
or waste your time, if you want to. you can do whatever you feel like
Insult him? I merely pointed out that for someone who supposedly writes legal briefs, he has a poor understanding of how quickly the judicial process can function. He's also pompous enough to believe that he should determine who lives and dies, and by his own admission, would 'gladly' kill thousands of people.
Conservatives used to bitch about 'elitism,' now they bitch when you swear. WTF?
I'm sorry you find me boring, but when someone says stupid shit for 22 min it takes awhile to sort out.
There's a difference between elitism and common decency - but of course I wouldn't expect some of your intellectual capacity to understand that.
And he never said he personally should determine who lives or dies. It's obviously the judicial system that does that (and yes, if it were functioning correctly, thousands more murderers would be disposed of).
STFU you don't have the 'intellectual capacity' to make videos of your own, so you troll other users to make yourself feel smart. Of course I wouldn't expect someone like you to understand that.

Interesting solution I suppose. Are you anarchocapitalist or libertarian?
I trust the state to administer life sentences because they can be overturned if new evidence comes to life, and separates them from the population
If you want to exile them on a desert island instead, I don't see how that's much different. Don't think I'd trust a for profit entity to do it.
As for concealed weapons, I'm generally for it, but have no idea how effective it actually is. Wouldn't give up police protection
