sadly enough...you are mistaken...and have voluntarily chosen to participate in the slippery slope of "compromise" where it is ALWAYS just a question of whether or not a looter will exist just one more day...
and I rightly refuse fifty and/or a hundred dollars when it's all blood money...
Right. But in my example, it wasn't.
Let me put it this way: You are someone who is happier with somebody stealing 100% of your money than working with somebody who will ensure only 50% of your money is stolen.
I'm not sorry that I find it pure folly to compromise with the very person who IS willing to STEAL "only" half of my property...
Is only having half your property an improvement on having all your property stolen?
I'm not sorry that I find it pure folly to compromise with the very person who IS willing to RAPE "only" on the odd days...
Is raping only on odd days not an improvement on raping every day?
I'm not sorry that I find it pure folly to compromise with the very person who IS willing to MURDER "only" on the even days...
Isn't murdering only on even days an improvement on murdering every day?
again...feel free...and even ENCOURAGED...to relate that some people...
are going to rightly refuse EVEN the theft of half their property...
Of course. And good for them. What does that have to do with anything? Why reject a move from stealing all of a person's property to stealing half their property just because it is not a complete end to theft? It is still better than stealing all of people's property.
are going to rightly refuse EVEN being raped only on odd days...
Good for them. But why decide to stick with being raped every day because the only alternative being offered is only being raped on odd days?
are going to rightly refuse EVEN being murdered only on even days...
Well, somebody can only be murdered once, so that's moot.
by now you should understand completely that today it's fifty of your hundred that you willingly compromise and surrender to the looters...
then tomorrow it's twenty-five of the fifty they left you with yesterday...that you willingly compromise and surrender to the looters...
then the next day it's twelve and fifty-cents of the twenty-five they left you lying in the dirt with the day before...
then it's not enough that they got six and seventy-five cents, so they did a little fudge-packing too...
I can't tell what the hell you are talking about here. Plainly, if one guy is offering to steal only 75% of my money, but another is offering to only steal 50%, I will choose the guy stealing only 50%.
You, on the other hand, would choose the guy stealing 100%, because there is nobody saying they will not steal anything.
