Fellow Bostonians: How many of us wished we had an assault weapon last night?

Your respect has no value.
It is not desirable.

You are cowards. Carrying a gun every where you go is a clue
to the fact that you are just looking for any reason to use it.

U assume that your hallucinations r actually true; thay r not.
Carrying guns is carrying health insurance.

If I saw a violent felony in progress, I 'd be much more inclined
just to mind my own business, possibly call 911, if I felt like it,
unless it became necessary to defend MYSELF.

U fail to give my selfishness enuf credit.

On the other hand, if I LIKED the victim
of the aforesaid violent felony, then I might help her out.

If I saw YOU getting robbed or sodomized in the street,
I 'd be no hero; I 'd not take out nor show a gun.
I 'd just mind my own business n go my own way.

WHEN have we ever done that, C.I. ???????

Since our antionality law changed during the last couple of years, I had to look it up in law archives.
Gerry Lauk was a German ex lege, if one of his parents (here it was his mother) had been German at his birth. [§4 Staatsangehörigkeitsgesetz (StAG) same as today]
However, as said above, the relevant paperwork wasn't done.

@H2O MAN,

We've got plenty of History, all the way back to Henge. You clearly haven't been versed in anything other than dumb obedience and parroting your master's voice.

Then you've defiled your past views that an armed society is a polite society. Isnt NOT rendering assistance in many states considered a minor crime?

Is it not strange that the courts had rule over and over that the police themselves do not have a duty to render assistance!!!!!

Second under common law there is no duty to even try to save a drowning child in front of you unless you have some duty to that child such as a parent or a baby sitter to that child or serving in said the role of a life guard.

Now in a very few states the common law had been change to the degree that you must render assistance as long as you can do so at zero risk to yourself.

That assertion is a non-sequitur; please show me in Emily Post
or in Dorothy Manners where rescues from violent felonies r required.
I wanna see THAT!

Yes, it is NOT.
Even the police r not criminally liable
for failure to expose themselves to danger
(q.v. the cowardly police in the Columbine H.S. debacle
n the defaulting police in Reginald Denny 's stomping in riots),
nor r thay tortiously liable (judicial holdings in support).

Consider the 13th Amendment, in relation thereto.

What is the likelihood of FM being sodomised in the street? Have you ever encountered anyone being sodomised in the street? Is it just an American thing?

About as ofen as decapitations in the street.
That remark was directed to Rabel222.
I might like the farmer enuf to rescue him.

Does the social etiquette of England require
one to execute rescues from violent felonies ?

How about the Scotch ?

Oh, Ive been propositioned by a few gay guys, I may have a grunge look now but I had a nerdy waif look many years ago. Some of the boys find that irresistible. They wouldn't sodomize me in the street, most of the boys have more class.
Still, I don't swing that way but not that theres anything wrong wit dat.

Thank you for your concern, I think.

It's not a legal obligation like it is in France, but people do their best to help. Regarding the murder of Drummer Lee Rigby ,most people initially thought it was a traffic accident and his assailants were trying to help him. By the time they realised what was happening it was too late, although two women did try to shield his body afterwards.

What about the Scotch? It's way too early for me to start drinking, and even if it wasn't, I don't particularly like whisky.

SOME people do.
It has been falsely attributed to me in this thread
that I wanna be a hero; I don't.
I believe in minding my own business (most of the time).

I prefer brandy, or red wine (more ofen: just water).

@izzythepush,

I think, it's generally not written as law in common law.
In Germany, Section 323c of the criminal code is about "Omission to effect an easy rescue":

Quote:

Whosoever does not render assistance during accidents or a common danger or emergency although it is necessary and can be expected of him under the circumstances, particularly if it is possible without substantial danger to himself and without violation of other important duties shall be liable to imprisonment not exceeding one year or a fine.

Wikipedia explains:

Quote:

[...]a citizen is obliged to provide help in case of accident or general danger if necessary, and is normally immune from prosecution if assistance given in good faith and following the average reasonable person's understanding of required measures turns out to be harmful.[33][34] Also the helper may not be held responsible if the action he should take in order to help is unacceptable for him and he is unable to act (for example when unable to act at the sight of blood). In Germany, knowledge of basic emergency measures and First Aid and CPR Certification is a prerequisite for the granting of a driving license.

Okay, show me any post I have posted on a2k to prove "I have no brains?"

I have posted over 80,000 opinions; you surely can find ONE that doesn't meet some knowledge of the subject.

Otherwise, I can determine that YOU ARE THE STUPID ONE.

But, I repeat myself. Mr. Green

That is shockingly HORRIBLE legislation.
It creates a state of terror & uncertainty in the populace.
Let's examine it:

Quote:

Whosoever

That includes the lame, infirm, blind,
very old, and babies, too young to walk.

Quote:

does not render assistance during accidents

HOW is defendant supposed to know
whether the event in question was ACCIDENTAL or malicious ?

Quote:

or a common danger or emergency although it is necessary

"common" to whom??
"necessary" to WHAT????

Quote:

and can be expected of him

Can be expected BY WHOM ???????
Anyone can expect anything, Walter !

Quote:

under the circumstances, particularly if it is possible without substantial danger to himself

I take it that Germany has no equivalent
to the 13th Amendment of the US Constitution ?
(i.e., defense: "I am not your slave; I have no duty
to render unpaid work.")

I surmise that the Germen allege jurisdiction
upon citizens to expose themselves to danger,
so long as it is not "substantial" ????

Quote:

and without violation of other important duties

How is defendant supposed to ascertain whether other duties
r "important" or not?? If he sees an accident, must he call his lawyer
for a legal opinion on the point? Have him draw a memorandum of law,
while defendant waits at the scene of ax??

Quote:

shall be liable to imprisonment not exceeding one year or a fine.

That is scary; not the product of a free country; authoritarian.

Of course, there are huge numbers of examples of stupidity in your posts.
It IS possible to find them n post them, if one sufficiently motivated,
but little good comes from convincing u that u r in a state of mental decline
and it is unpaid labor. If u press me enuf, then I 'll accept the project.

It isn't and it doesn't.
It's in the criminal code since ages and never ever has created any "terror" and/or uncertainity. (It derives from our Christian sources)

I really don't know why you would wish to argue with OSD, Walter. He is clearly beyond reasoning with, and has a most unfortunate view of the world.
