Why is the government trying to disarm the public are they getting ready for a martial law?
I asked my boyfriend if he has ever hit a woman and he immediately said yes.He said he was 19 and had an argument with his girlfriend and asked her to leave his apartment.He then went to the bathroom and when he came out she was waiting right outside the door and punched him in the jaw as soon at the door opened...he said his immediate reaction was to swing back and that floored her.And before he knew it, she grabbed a hand full of his manhood and squeezed...he said he kept hitting her in the head until she let go...then he told her to leave again and she grabbed his manhood again...and he hit her again until she let go.After that she went into his kitchen and he heard glass breaking, but chose to not go into the kitchen fear of having glass thrown at him.Then she came at him with a Chef's knife.He said that after she swiped at him, he grabbed her hand and began slamming her into the wall until she dropped the knife...then he forceably pushed her out the door and locked it behind him.I asked why didn't he just pick her up and restrain her...he said that they were about equal weight (although she is shorter), and they both studied martial arts together at the time and she could hold her own.And they had been taught to fight with knives, so while she wasn't a knife fighting expert, she did have formal training.I asked if he called the police, and he said no...she did.I asked if he went to jail, and he said no...the laws were diffrerent back then.Back then the first person to throw a punch was committing assault and the assaulted party could defend themselves.He said that she later told him that the police refused to take the report, because if they did they would have been forced to take her to jail & he had called they would have to come back and arrest her.I asked him if he would do it again under the same circumstances.He said, "If a woman my size with formal martial arts training hit me unprovoked by obvious physical aggression on my part...and/or had a weapon in her hand...I would beat her azz like a man...and deal with the consequences.I'd rather be a live man in court for domestic abuse than a dead man in a grave with a tombstone saying that I'm a gentleman."We've been together for 2 years, and he has never as much as raised his voice to me.


Would you marry/trust/be fearful of a man that admits to hitting a woman?
iv heard many muslims say they have no problem with islamic nations even muslims that live in the west.in muslims nations you can be arrested for "blasphemy" and the word of a women is worth half a mans word in court according to there laws that even Western muslims support.if they ever try to force sharia law on us why don't we just confine the streets to a police state until things get settled down.


can martial law be used to combat the threat of muslims demanding Sharia law?
At least he wasn't the one that instigated an illegal war that killed over 625,000, destroyed the south, declared martial law, suspended habeas corpus, and did all that just because 80% of the federal revenue was from the south.(Lincoln and Ulysses S.Grant admitted the war was not about slavery and to think so is foolish).TheOrange Evil - You have a warped view of history, neocon.The south banned the importation of slaves.(Article I, Section 9).With no fugitive slave laws in neighboring states that would return fugitive slaves to their owners, the value of slaves as property drops owing to increased costs incurred to guard against their escape.With slaves having a place to escape to in the North and with the supply of new slaves restricted by its Constitution, slavery in the Confederate states would have ended without war.A slave’s decreasing property value, alone, would have soon made the institution unsustainable, irrespective of more moral and humanitarian considerations.So no, the reason for secession was not slavery, but it was for unreasonably high taxes (Morril Tariffs Act, look it up).

Harry Truman, Doris Day?
This is an interesting question and I want to see the answers.The 2 men are both experienced, the Soldier at the age of 27, being a veteran of at least 2 combat tours serving mainly as an 11B (Infantryman) and he does more than just shoot a gun or use a knife.He helps the people in the foreign land, helps his fellow Soldiers grow in their jobs and trains hard when off duty.This Soldier is highly trained in combat, has experience in detaining suspects, holding a position and using hand to hand combat if necessary.He's experienced with weapons, tactics, mixed martial arts and overall a fit and rough person.A man with a heart and a man who would die for his family and his Army family.He has been a Soldier since the age of 18 and has attained the rank of Sgt.or E-5.His dedication and ongoing training has been in part the reason why he is where he is at.The cop is a 33 year old man who has served for at least 5 years and has served his community in several capacities involving traffic stops, policing the public, arresting rowdy people, using a taser and mace when needed, using the tools given to render suspects defenseless & also using his physical/mental strength and police training as a way to mediate with suspects.He tries to have a heart amongst the evil things he see's while working on the streets and has attained the rank of Sgt.because of his hard work and dedication.He works out weekly and trains part time in wrestling and judo.He is strong and has a strong faith in life.Both men are hard workers and have served their nation/communities but who would come out on top if these 2 people came across each other in a unforeseen scenario involving a misunderstanding on the police officer's side and the police officer not listening or taking into account anything that the Soldier has to say.This scenario isn't exactly a specific one, but the cop has pulled over the Soldier for a traffic offense and he is acting unusually rude this day and the Soldier tries to be respectful.Somehow it turns into a argument about the Soldier's bumper sticker (their politics are different) and the cop threatens to arrest him if the man doesn't remove the stickers.Well, this is something that can very well happen in today's let's fight over nothing age and let's rule over everyone's life age.While both these men are good people, the cop is clearly wrong in demanding the removal of the stickers which are the right of the man to keep on his car.He is additionally wrong by threatening arrest or any consequence and they end up in a altercation.Me personally, I am all for being a law abiding citizen as I have personally been my whole life.But there are certain things that I will not allow myself to be restricted to and I will not allow my freedoms and pursuit of happiness to be hampered by a LEO making unwarranted demands just because he/she doesn't like my opinions or politics/religion.If you have done nothing wrong then LEO has no right to interfere with your freedom to move around and they can't force you to do anything unless you have actually broken a law that is a serious enough offense that any legitimate cop would enforce.Sorry, this was long but I want to see what some of you say.The world is huge out there and in the U.S.there have been too many cases of LEO acting out of line and hurting innocent people who didn't do anything wrong.Sometimes the courts let the cops get off but more and more courts are slapping huge fines and punishments on LEO for abusing their privilege to be a cop.There is much more I could have included up top but I didn't because it would take too long.I tried to cover variables between the 2 men as much as possible.I have clearly made a fine story for which anyone should be able to give a solid answer to.My question also comes in part because I am myself a experience combat veteran and while it has been 3 years since I was in the Army, I still act like a Soldier many times and I still think like an Infantryman because that was my life for several years.While I can do other things with finesse and while I live my life as normal as anyone can, I also worry at times about being pulled over and verbally attacked because of my bumper stickers.The stickers are nothing more than my support for the war on terror, my former job as a 11B and my military brothers.In today's world though I always know to be on my guard and that's something I can't ignore.


Who would come out on top, trained civilian cop or trained Army Infantryman?
