Guest guest Posted November 6, 2002 Report Share Posted November 6, 2002 The Difference Between The Liberal and Conservative Question: You're walking down a deserted street with your spouse and two small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes around the corner and is running at you while screaming obscenities. In your hand is a .357 Magnum and you are an expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do? Liberal Answer: Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look poor or oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him that is inspiring him to attack? Could we run away? What does my spouse think? What about the kids? Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand? What does the law say about this situation? Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me or would he just be content to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with some friends for a few days to try to come to a conclusion. Conservative Answer: Shoot the son of a bitch! Take your family to a baseball game, eat some hot dogs and apple pie, sing the national anthem, go to church and praise the Lord for one more day of freedom. Y'all keep smiling, ;-p Butch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
