re: #313 stabby

So what? How the fuck is that relevant?

If your goal is to kill as many people as possible, shouldn’t greater measures be allowed to stop you than if your goal is to cheat the lady down the street out of $1000?

I would rather the government focused on making neighborhoods safe and helping people become productive members of society than on weeding out potential subversives.

I understand that both things have to happen to some extent but devoting extravagant resources to the latter while letting the former deteriorate is a big mistake IMO.
