The instances when using violence to repel the loss of greenbacks alone is in anyway appropriate are mercifully beyond the comprehension of most (if not all) the people known to us.

It's only remotely considerable in places of absolute poverty where the loss of a small piece of metal or a small green piece of paper could result in homelessness and starvation.

Appropriate? Considerable? Whatever. Some punk tries to steal from me, I will hurt him. Obviously the situation varies with the size of the guy and what kinds of weapons he has, but if I have the opportunity to protect my property (even some lousy greenbacks) against some idiot who has decided to take it from me, I am going to take action.

I see no reason why I should stand back and watch someone rob me when I could do something about it? Sadly, from the looks of things, most people would think I am wrong for doing so. Looks like the only way to be considered a decent person in this world is to amputate your own balls, bend over, and hold your cheeks open as wide as possible and hope those who will screw you will be kind enough to use lube when they do so.

Warb mentioned taking the law into your own hands? The law has nothing to do with it, it is my property being taken, I have a right to defend it. I am not attacking the guy because he is breaking the law, I am attacking him because he is taking something that belongs to me.
