What would you do, if someone came in the night, set up home in your back garden, attacked members of your family with deadly force when they tried to evict them and demanded you bow down to their superiority because they see you and your family as inferior? What if they had the full backing of a police force, who regularly supplied them with the means to hinder your attempts to gain back your property?

Would you just give in?

Would you willingly give up your rights to them?

Would you submit to their feeling of superiority over you and your family?

Or would you fight for your land, your rights and your beliefs?

I know I would.

Regardless of what you perceive this hypothetical question may be referring to, I would request you to put aside your preconceived ideas and simply answer this question as it is written, in its own context.
Thank you.

I am not afraid.
It is simply easier for me to address it like this, than to list ALL the supposed 'terrorists' in the world.

Simply put,

The Bible says in "NEHEMIAH 4:13-14

(13) Therefore , set I in the lower places behind the wall, and on the higher places, I even set the people after their families with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

(14) And I looked, and rose, and said unto the nobles, and the rulers, and to the people, Be not afraid of them : remember the Lord, which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sons, and you daughters,your wives, and your houses.

This does not give us the right to go out and harm someone just because we believe they are a threat to us, it does not allow us to
strike out at what we precieve as a threat,

Good judgement has to be involved.

But the answer to your question is yes.

I'd say you're afraid of asking your real question and clothing it up as some hypothetical scenario to elicit "rational" sympathy for a perpetrator who supposedly is the victim. Somma you guys! Don't you understand that the average American is informed as to immature shenanigans?

I'd set up my AR-15 in the bedroom window and start "plinking" away. Then I'd set up a mine field and a good strong razor wire fence and teach my dogs to bite any intruders.

I am a former marine. I dont think anyone would do that around me. I dont think anyone is stupid enough to try. but if they did for arguments sake. I would make their lives a living hell. I would rape their woman poison their food. kidnap and torture them and leave them disfigured for life. I would definatly rob anything they have. I would do just what the america military is trained to do

I would fight. Just like native americans fought the colonizers, just like the Carib and Taino indians fought the spanish conquistadors, just like Montezuma fought some more spanish conquistadors, just like everyone in europe fought rome, or everyone in Africa fought Europe 1,400 years after Rome, just like Asians fought Alexandross, and so on...

In the case you have described, I think I would move. My family's safety would outweigh my own pride and anger. However, I assume you are describing Israel as the oppressor and I believe you have some fallacies in your argument.

Seriously, I think that I would sell my house and move. Likely I would move immediately (before it sells). You have to choose your battles in life and that is not one I would choose to fight. My happiness and comfort are more important to me than my possessions.

Now, tell us what the question really means.

I'd get a big gun.
