This post makes no sense. I am suggesting that Kennedy is a killer. And Clinton is a person of interest in a few killings. How that relates to anything else you wrote I don't know. Why would you want to defend there defenseless misdeeds? Do you approve of rape and murder?
You said you were relying on the Second Amendment to protect your property rights from, inter alia, the murderers. I asked you who you meant by the murderers. You replied you were referring to the Kennedys and the Clintons.

I asked you: (i) why you felt these people from the East were coming after your property; and (ii) why, if, as you maintain, killing is wrong absolutely, you felt you could reconcile a willingness to kill these people with a moral life lived in accordance with what is absolutely Right and forsaking what is absolutely Wrong?

I never offered any defense, or indeed, any comment at all on the kennedys or the Clintons. I don't view them as relevant to our discussion, Penske. We are debating whether there are absolute Right and Wrong, and why you seem to feel that you can claim to be superior to others, myself included, for respecting these absolutes when, in fact, you don't respect them.

Once again, Penske, you are ducking the issue. Is killing an absolute Wrong? And if it is, then how can you support war and a right to bear arms?

These are the things you claim to believe. Help me understand.
