What are you objecting to? It is fun to kill bad guys. Why do you think FPS games are so popular?
I don't see it as a non-sequitur. If you find that quote offensive in some way, you presumably approve of the Talibans treatment of women.

Does it not matter that we were running those maneuvers largely in response to Japanese aggression in China and the Pacific? Does it matter that the reason we were in tension with Japan was their murder and conquest…
I don't think so. Benjamin Franklin is probably the prototypical self-made man. And you would never claim that "he did it all himself." He wouldn't have claimed that either. It's clear from his Autobiography that there…

So can you identify no situation in which killing someone is appropriate?
Think Sears is bad, try KMart.
Yes, and?
Well, you're entitled to eat whatever you can afford to eat. If that's meat, it's meat.

And Venezuela is a paradise on earth!
China was doing really really badly until Mao died and Deng took power and began implementing market reforms, bringing capitalism in.
Where is the success of capitalism? It's in the rapidly falling global extreme poverty rate, soon to be below 10% for the first time in human history. It's in the cell phone networks blanketing Africa and Asia, giving…
There's the old parable >"In the USA, you can stand in front of the White House in Washington, DC, and yell, "Down with Reagan!", and you will not be punished. Equally, you can also stand in Red Square in Moscow and…
This is propaganda, disgustingly incorrect propaganda, so far off base the only conceivable way you could have written it is to be maliciously lying.
So his exiling of over a million cubans is acceptable, then?
That seems, at best, orthogonal to the issue of foreign investment and business.
You seem to be extremely confused. Of course moral lessons can be taught through stories. That a moral lesson is taught through story does not make the moral taught true in any sense. Which makes bringing up the One…
