Heh. I guess that's why all the stores there were owned by Koreans - they knew what it took to survive there.
Every able-bodied Korean male has to do over two years of mandatory military service (or go to jail), plus annual refresher courses. It'd be hard to find a middle-aged Korean man who hasn't fired of several thousand rounds in practice.

When Alan Dershowitz blasted the prosecutor in the George Zimmerman-Trayvon Martin case, she went straight to his boss at Harvard Law School to complain, according to the legal legend.

“It’s certainly professional to respond, but by calling the dean and threatening to sue the school, which she knows she cannot do, is unprofessional,” Dershowitz told FoxNews.com. “I would welcome a lawsuit from Corey. It would give me a chance to prove what an awful thing she did.”

She should go back to law school, where she will learn that it is never appropriate to submit an affidavit that contains a half truth, because a half truth is regarded by the law as a lie, and anyone who submits an affidavit swears to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth,” Dershowitz’s column continued.
An incompetent prosecutor certainly works out in Zimmerman's favor.
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Not incompetent. Unethical. There is a difference. And, it may not work out to anyone's favor, certainly not in favor of justice.

Yes, I remember that. I remember the politically correct press criticizing them, and I was thinking, their whole lives are invested in their stores, how can you expect them not to defend themselves? As I recall, those were the only stores not looted.
In this video, at least, I think they were in the middle of being looted when they (Koreans) made a stand and put a stop to it.

Defending against looting? For shame. It's only property. The lives of the burglars and thieves are far more important. :prof:

Especially if they're not armed. If they're not armed, they have large penises, which makes them even more valuable to the species.

Unless they drive sports cars. Then all bets are off.

We're gonna need to set up some sort of National Penis Size Registry, aren't we? Incidentally, if you resist this suggestion, I will have no other choice but to shoot you with my penis-pistol-car-cycle-income-hairstyle-music collection-vocabulary micropenis-compensatory unit. Be forewarned.

Resist? Well, that depends who is doing the measuring? Can I pick a technicianess with a penchant for fellatio?

Don't rule it out so quickly, you small-dicked, gun-psycho, homocidal homophobe! He's cute, he's gentle, he has an exotic accent and a mind-boggling bellybutton.

Edit: And if you're willing to travel...

I've never owned a gun, and I don't drive a sports car. So, let the ladies be put on notice: that is proof positive that I have an armadillo in my pants.

I'd like to trade Lozzer for Bella, Hades, and/or Lordpasternack, please. I suspect they are at least as competent as Lozzer in penisology.

Wish I could oblige, but you're on the wrong side of the gun ownership/self-defense rights issue(s). As a result, you are forever relegated and confined to the small-penis-having section of society. No chance whatsoever that Bella, Hades or LP would have the slightest interest in you or your microscopic whanger. Better luck next time! :tup: :{D
