All you have to do is point them at this article, or directly at Bradford's History of Plymouth Plantation.<br />https://mises.org/library/great-thanksgiving-hoax-1<br /><br />"We've got plenty of laws against murder and mayhem..."<br /><br />It's interesting to think what would happen, if the law against murder were repealed.<br /><br />I think it would instantly normalize the carrying of firearms (with nobody bothering to get a permit), and instead of 8% or 10% doing it, at least 50% would. Shortly thereafter, all the bad people would be dead, if they didn't stop being bad. After that, the murder rate would probably go down, as crime would get a lot more risky, and it would be limited to those individuals too stupid not to carry a firearm - which would provide a strong incentive for even more to carry. At some point people would realize they don't need cops any more, so police forces would get a lot smaller and more constitutional, and cops would stop citing people for shooting charging bears.<br /><br />I just don't see any downsides for getting rid of the law against murder. Of course my scenario might be wrong, heh; but it's at least worth thinking about.<br /><br />Paul Bonneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15279129269584372919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-57020992332633862942019-11-27T10:08:49.106-05:002019-11-27T10:08:49.106-05:00Wishing you, yours, and all your readers a wonderf...Wishing you, yours, and all your readers a wonderful Thanksgiving.<br /><br />May next year's Thanksgiving be filled with heartfelt celebrations as Trump wins a crushing victory, we retake the House, we keep the Senate... and we put the RINOs remaining on notice.NITZAKHONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110716447757507226noreply@blogger.com
