My statement was not meant to create anamosity, but to differentiate what may be considered public domain, from what we may decide should not be. I feel my "argument" is actually quite convincing, should you decide to consider the implications of it, rather than simply react. In your reaction however, you simply decided to throw completely unrelated issues into what was a relatively benign opinion.

I have found this somewhat common in your "debate" techniques, and thus generally refrain from reply to the bait. In fact I don't really know why I am writting this, as it is likely to add fuel to a fire that should have never even started. But here you go......

Against Rape?
don't treat women as sexual objects (unless you are invited)

Against Theft?
Dont Steal

No brainers here....in my opinion. But these issues are in the realm of public safety, and common good.

If you wish to debate the differences between, Gay Marriage/Abortion/ and Gun ownership. And Rape /and Theft, I will be happy to in a seperate thread, rather than hijack this one, which has potential.
