Explain?

What is wrong with eliminating people who threaten freedom?

Well, there's the "elimination" part of course, which seems - how do i put this? - drastic?
It's just that I believe a democratic society should uphold two values: freedom and respect. I believe you should always respect another person's beliefs and rights, even if you don't agree with them and even if it threatens freedom at the same time. Because once you lose respect in a society, you're just left with freedom and that might as well be the anarchy of the jungle.

Well but the United States of America are built on the premise of eliminating tyranny by it's root.

It's not drastic. Drastic is accepting losing freedom step by step until the point where the Orwellian dystopia will be welcomed by society.

Hey, you're not reading what I'm saying. Society needs both freedom and respect to democratic (and pleasant to live in). It's kinda like the Heisenburg principle in that way.

Hint: when you're against freedom, you are a threat to democracy.

I know, that's what I just said, but thanks for parroting it back to me.

If I am parroting things then why did you say it was drastic? Inconsistency much?

if call of duty is a simulation [based on real life], then im guessing all soldiers carry barrett 50. cals like the're paper, and spin before they fire. hell, why even carry a gun, if the knife has the power of God instilled in it, and can kill someone by stabbing them in the toe. it is a based on rea life, right?
