re: #7 Expand Your Ground

We have the right to act according to our conscience, that is the essense of Civil Disobedience.

But we still have to live with the fact that there will be consequences and cannot place ourselves above the law nor can we expect to escape punishment for it. We can at best hope to make an example that leads to a change of the laws.

that is the flaw in Fischer’s line of arguments-

If they want to actually try to grab my kid, they won’t live long enough to worry about the legal consequences. Not trying to provoke or have a comment removed. I am just stating my unvarnished opinion as what I would do if somebody tried to do something to my family. My response would be immediate and very, very violent.
