If you live you'll complain, that is.

By the way, did you know that you live in one of several cities where
courts have ruled that the police have NO responsibility to protect
individual citizens?

I am.  When I was growing up, an elderly woman across the street saved
her husband from two burglars who were beating him; she did so by firing
a gun at them.  I can privide other examples, if you like.

Believe what you want but don't think you can shove your beliefs down my 
throat.

Childish innuendo like this does nothing to facilitate intelligent
