Know what happens when you are convicted of a felony?
In addition to limiting your employment and housing prospects... You lose your right to own/carry a firearm.
So now, if this woman ever IS in a situation where she is actually in danger and could reasonably need to protect herself with a gun, she won’t be able to.
but at least she’ll have her honor in the eyes of total strangers she will never meet, I guess.

If a written account of your patience is worth more than what some perceive as honor, so be it. But that is not what everyone else might choose.moviestar wrote: ↑Sun Jul 05, 2020 9:45 pm Choose to teach who what now? this is really getting absurd now. Honestly, what do you think the odds are that these women would have ever seen each other again?
Maybe I would teach people that I will shy away and flee a situation instead of escalating a verbal altercation with murder threats. You know what else I will do? pass a criminal background check. So it kinda still feels like I win.Frau Holle wrote: ↑Sun Jul 05, 2020 1:06 pm The difference is that you would choose to teach others that they can treat you that way and you will shy away and flee the situation.
Other people absolutely do not share that opinion on what should be taught to other people on how they will react. Some people literally come from cultures where backing down and showing the lesser amount of aggression would equate to weakness and there is no worse of an insult.
There is a reason why the most historically violent cultures now have such exacting standards for how to interact with manners, and they hold to them.
