Understand that all of these people who are abusing workers were taught by abusers that all relationships are abuser/victim relationships.
The mainstream media calls the state-controlled market the “free market” like they call America the land of the “free”. It is just a lie. The current “market” is the murderer's market. The fact is that neither a resource-based economy nor a free market can be achieved without a stateless society, and a stateless society can not be achieved while the vast majority of parents use the aggression principle and hit their babies.
The resource-based economy and the free market are not enemies. They play the game with the same fundamental rule: no one is ever allowed to initiate the use of force. They are competitors in a race that can not start until the contestants have the chains of their enslavement broken by those who are willing to stand up and act against the violence that parents inflict on their children.

No, do not Person X's parents near their children! Why would one let their abusers near their children? Remember that the fact that someone is your biological creator does not give them automatic access to your children. If your parent raped someone, would you let them near your children? No. If your parent abused you, would you let them near your children? No. Replace the word “parent” with “random person”, then you would clearly see this answer. However, the word “parent” is designed to disable your gut reaction to immoral behavior.

Friend, you need to call 1-800-273-TALK. It is a hotline provided by the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance. Just do it, now. Do not cut yourself again, and if you have that urge, do not pick up the blade, pick up the phone. You have the support of this community and the community at DBSA to continue to live and find a life free from abuse.

"Political Representation" is an illusion. Power of Attorney is an instance where a person can "represent" you regarding your life, your money, your property, etc. Would you agree to give Power of Attorney to 317 million random people? Could you actually trust every person inside of a population of millions of people to represent your mind? Of course not. You probably would not give your closest ten friends the Power of Attorney over you.

The "past" is not a living organism, so it can not create actions in the objective world. However, a living organism can have history that influences which action, of all possible actions that it could do at that point in time, is chosen as the action that is performed by the living organism. The past of an organism does not change the fact that the organism can choose any action that is possible for that organism to do, but the organism does use the past as a reference point for which action will most likely achieve the most desired preference of the organism at that moment in time.

What exactly do you mean by "everything we do" and "our past"?

How exactly would a stateless society work without a state-led education, isn't that the highest universalization that a society can strive to?
Without it you are left with deranged superstitious parents indoctrinating their children with their pet nonsense.
Just in the hyper-superstitious US imagine the disastrous consequences, it would become a third world country within decades.
Just this alone brings the entire Stefan's philosophy down.
Well, a stateless society requires people who use reason and truth in their personal lives. If a parent told a child that they were going to go to Church, and the child said “No”, then the parent would not take their child to Church. If a parent told a child that he must pray before dinner, and the child said “No”, then the parent could not hit/spank/assault their child in order for them to mutter words while in front of the dinner plate.
It is important to understand that a permanent stateless society will never be created by unreasonable and irrational people. The state requires anti-reason and anti-rationality to exist, which is why the state thrives in this world just as much as religion does.
You don't know what you are talking about, public prayer led by school administrators is banned in public schools in which most children go to and ACLU constantly reminds rogue administrators to fall back in line with the constitution.
The church/state wall of separation is thin and full of holes but is still better than nothing.
When you talk to kids who have been home schooled they are basically scientifically illiterate, many who want to go to college recognize themselves how much damage their parents did to them and their life prospects, the whole home schooling movement is basically an excuse to indotrinate children with superstitious nonsense, exceptions are marginal and irrelevant.
Home schooling completely circumvents the whole point of education, and that is that children should get smarter and more knowledgeable than their parents, this is inimical to the core of religion.
Religious teaching happens in the home before public school. It never exits the home and then only exists in schools. Parents specifically design the minds of children to believe in God until they die. Public school simply does not turn religious children into atheists. Religious children inoculate their children against reason and evidence, which is why reason and evidence generally do not work/appeal to religious people.
I don't know, maybe that has something to do with churches being on every corner in every town?
Also, you are forgetting that we are not only dealing with religious superstition but with anti-knowledge attitudes it generates, so things would be much worse than they already are without the state education, which is a castle and religion besieges it constantly as the enemy of reason, without that castle what would happen?
Then it really would have become a third world country a long time ago.
The state, and therefore state education is an enemy of reason. The church threatens you with hell, and the state threatens you with prison. I think that you are making an assumption that people do not want to be educated (this is not true! People educate themselves all the time in things that they have interest in). It may also be important to understand that the historical evidence shows that intelligence and education mean nothing against the power religion. Why are the top 20% of students not atheists if education can destroy religion? It is because religion is immune against education. To defeat religion, people need parents who love them (never hit/threaten them, [be the guide, not the ruler]), and religious parents simply do not love their children, they love the idea of children.
Isn't that a direct result of right wing jesus-cultists who are trying to defund public education?
Teaching critical thinking and civics would be anathema to them.
Left wing, right wing. Same vulture, different colored feathers.
You have a reading comprehension problem, we've already established that without the bullwark of state education children would only have one option, their ignorant and superstitious parents.
I felt a bit anxious when you said "You have a reading comprehension problem". If you could, please refrain from insults in order to present what you have to say.
Also, state colleges and universities had great impact at chipping away at religious superstition in USA.
College is way past the point at the religion virus passes from the parent to the child. We need to focus on the point at which the virus passes from one person to the other.
Furthermore, you are still not proposing any solution, stateless education would be no education at all.
It doesn't matter if something right now is bad if the absence of it would mean that it would be worse.
The solution is to try to convince every parent and potential parent to stop hitting/threatening their children, and to start using reason and logic with them.
Who will create universal standards?
Who will enforce them?
Do the unborn really deserve the life their religiously deranged parents will enforce on them without the intervention of the state?
Of course children do not deserve religiously deranged parents. However, it is people in the community that must do the intervention, not the state. The state has failed over and over and over and trying to stop immoral behavior (how many times does an employee have to fail before you fire them?). The state presents itself as the savior, and this blocks people from recognizing that groups of individuals could solve these problems.
For one to ask this one has to have no idea about history, political activism and lobbying of jesus-cultists, organisational consolidation in a vacuum of power, indoctrination and polls.
Are you really that ignorant about everything or just trying to use dishonesty as a tool for dismissal?
"Are you really that ignorant" is a statement designed to inflict emotional pain on the person that you are talking to. This is exactly what religious fanatics do to their children. Please avoid using sentences designed to hurt others. The pain that you just tried to convey is the pain that children can not deflect due to a natural lack of brain development. The pain is dealt, then the religious virus infects the child, and then it is over for that child, and thus over for us all as the power of religion grows.

Infidelity may be a result of a lack of honest communication about one's thoughts in an environment where one expects to be attacked physically or mentally in response to honesty. What I mean is, if you had a loving, honest relationship, why did you not tell the person that you were interested in starting a relationship with the other woman? I would think that emotional pain was not something that is dealt with while you were were growing up, or you were attacked for expressing emotions or feelings. Perhaps any attempt to deal with emotions and feelings were shut down by parents who generally wanted you to stay quiet so that they would not have to deal with emotions ("calm done", "stop crying", "how about we watch TV or play a game to take your mind off of it"). However, when you do not process your thoughts and feelings with others due to fear of attack or neglect, then you start rationalizing and normalizing deception to avoid attack.
When you have honest conversation in a truly and loving non-violent relationship, even when topics are hard, the pressure in your mind goes down, and it does not activate the flight-or-fight mechanism.
Recognize that you have probably have never seen a relationship where two people are totally curious and nice to each other, even through hard, painful topics. Your model (father) for how a relationship works with a woman is that honesty is not required for the relationship.

I think that it is important to remember that you do sign a contract with a homeowner's association, and that you are bound to that contract. The "social contract" is a phrase designed to avoid the argument that you have not signed any contracts with a government.

I just saw it on that thread I mentioned. I can understand the OP's style was not the most appropriate, but the central argument was sound, and I did not see Stefan or anyone refute it appropriately. What happens is that people don't like the argument, and start attacking its presentation or secondary things, in order to bury it. That is anti-philosophical behavior, and it is what this system encourages.
If the OP's post was so bad as to receive so many bad votes, then why did it get so many replies? Were perhaps those negative votes given by the people who replied? Why do people bother replying to something that isn't worth reading?
To say that the style was not "appropriate" seems like an attempt to rationalize and defend how FreeEach switched to a bullying demeanor after you found potential empirical evidence for FreeEach's argument. This is not a "secondary thing", and it is a part of the presentation of the argument. However, when people start to bully, they are repeating this childhood terror of angry reasoning such as "my reasoning + my evidence + my conclusion = you are an inferior stupid ignorant animal of a child, and I can now expose you to your friends/siblings as a stupid idiot and gain the respect of all because I know so much compared to you". The moral way to teach people is to be kind, present your argument, present your evidence, and answer questions about your argument without trying to project pain onto people (pain might result from truth, but you should not use name calling in a discussion in order to produce pain in someone else). So, after I saw abuse being used instead of argumentation, I did point it out. I do reject the assertion that this was brought up because I was trying to "bury" the argument. I spoke about it because when people are abusive, they need to see it to have a chance at not doing it again.I did find the original argument interesting, I honestly think that anyone could kindly talk about the original topic again by starting a new forum post. I think that I would even be interested in that participating in the discussion.

I argue that it should be enforced. Because it's much more efficient to make agreements to protect a whole neighborhood, and kick the one person who doesn't want to, than for everyone except that person to move.
People won't stop from stealing because of those rational principles. But because those principles are not enforced. And people with pooled protection have bigger guns than individuals who don't want to sign a contract.Therefore, state-like entities appear, who buy the land of the individuals.
However, at some point, people won't want to do that either. So, appears a community around one person who will simply demand an insane amount to move, but won't pay for the protection received (because everything is safe around them). This is the free rider problem.So, the community asks the private police to evict that person. The police agrees, and everyone except the free rider. You now have a state, that coerced somebody. Tyranny of the rich, not the majority.
Then, all communities where that person moved to also form a state. Soon, there will be no "free" land, and the bigger police always win.Practically, there is no such thing as a "right" or a "freedom", only if you pay up. And it's not guaranteed even then.
It's plutocracy, everywhere! We live in anarcho-capitalism.
Since I think democracy works, but we both think big states are bad, we both support competition (a smaller state), here's a barely related link. Support it:http://www.policymic.com/articles/77547/this-venture-capitalist-wants-california-to-split-into-six-states-here-s-why-he-s-right
Hopefully in the end, the state will become neighborhood-sized. Which is as close to completely free markets I would accept.
Rational principles will only be followed by those who are rational. Remember that this conversation is about the following the NAP (and UPB) because they are rational and logical. In that case, we are not talking about the state or corporations or neighborhoods, we are talking about the fact that it is immoral for individuals to initiate the use of violence against other people. Try this: imagine the situation again where the true physical ability to initiate the use of violence is impossible (some physical law of nature prevents it). If you want someone to move out of your neighborhood, how would you do it?

If on the other hand I flat out tell them that their opinion is BS, or that they are being an ass to me or someone else I notice they actually back down from their opinion if just by a little. I think certain people thrive on others being nice and understanding and so sometimes you just have to call someone out and maybe curse at them to get a point across.
Perhaps you are dealing with people where in their childhood, the way that their parents would "make them understand" things is to yell at them, curse at them, or called them terrible names in order to control what they were doing. So, you are trying to reason with them, but since they were not reasoned with as a child and have not experienced an awakening from that abusive method, when you start talking to them like that, you are actually bringing them back into their childhood comfort zone. This is not great or ideal, but it is good to know when you are trying to figure out how to understand what other people are experiencing.

The free market doesn't actually have anything innately against the idea of an institution with a monopoly of force over an arbitrary geographic location, presuming that it's founding and funding is voluntary, no?
Suppose a group of people formed a stateless society and none of the states around them were hostile, or perhaps even in a future of global stateless-ness, this group of people agree that they think a centralized monopoly of force is the way that they want to organize the society, with the method of taxation, through, say, a flat tax of 20%. All of the people signing this contract are adults at the age of consent, and there are no people in the arbitrary geographic land mass who do not sign contract with the new State. They understand the non-aggression principle and so they educate their children rather than propagandize them. Bear with me for a moment.
When children come to the age of consent, and do not sign a contract of agreement with the state to pay 20% of their income to it, the State gives them a choice: You may live here without paying taxes, but you are subject to our laws and you have not the right to participate in the political process, or we will give you enough money to live a middle-class lifestyle for one year outside of our 'country', and then no longer have anything to do with you.
Assuming that the state did not break this part of the contract, would the taxation not be voluntary? This is no critique of anarcho-capitalism, but rather one of the ways a lot of anarchists describe the ambivalence to modern society, namely, "Taxation is theft and the State is a centralized monopoly of force over an arbitrary geographic location of lines drawn on a map".
Thus, technically, it is not an opposition to a 'monopoly of force', but more accurately, involuntary association. Please correct any errors in my thinking and/or discuss.
I'm bringing it up because I think it's one of the stumbling blocks in communication with non-anarchists.
Trying to understand a "centralized monopoly of force" is a bit hard to pin down on meaning. One definition for the "centralized monopoly of force" (state) might be "a group of humans who institute the most threats of and carried out murders, assaults, and thefts in a geographic region.". This is not compatible with the NAP.
Many of the words the come from violent language: "organize the society", "monopoly of force", "flat tax", "age of consent". "Taxation" necessarily requires murder, because those who do not want to pay and do not want to leave the arbitrary geographic region will be killed if they try to defend themselves. "Organize the society" has no objective meaning, except that if someone does not want to conform how society is organized, they can be murdered. If people got together to pay people to do stuff without the threat of murder, they would call it a "monthly subscriber fee" or a "monthly service charge". They would not enter into contracts where their children can be murdered if they grow up to not want to sign the contract and not leave the arbitrary geographic area.

There are several instances. I'm not sure I can do them justice by typing them out due to how much backstory and context one instance would require, but the short answer is yes. I would say my parents and my brother, and some of my friends have all made me question whether me standing up for myself against them is me being a bully. I say this because of the reaction I get from them in regards to me defending myself, and it being a similar reaction to how I know I have reacted to actual bullies in the past.
I think that you should ask yourself if you are speaking the truth. If you have reviewed the facts in your mind, and find that they are true, then you are probably speaking truth. When people speak truth to abusers who continue to try to hide or falsify the truth, then the abuser may try to make emotional arguments against you. There is a possibility that they know that you are afraid of being a bully, and then use that knowledge along with false statements to trick you into thinking that you are a bully, and then they disable your ability continue to conversation.
I do also want to remind you that empathy is one of the most important traits to work on as you think about these things. Try to really understand the other person's perspective, even if that person is someone that is trying to claim that you are bullying them. Never call them a name, never say a "bad word" (sorry for the subjective nature of the phrase) against the person, and never stray away from the argument (it can be a very emotional experience). The purpose of speaking truth is not to cause pain, but to identify the damage caused by lies and to try to prevent future damage from happening.
A true conversation will not end with people yelling at each other and calling each other names, even when they get hard to process and emotional. If you never allow yourself the mirror the bait of escalation by the other party, then it is going to be that much harder for the other party to escalate it. They want you "to start it" so they can be allowed "to finish it".

my quick response to your words are the quip: "truth is hatespeech"...if you fear the truth then you label it as you have here "personal attack", "insult to philosophy", "insult to truth and falsehood", "warlike", etc.
interesting! it seems you are a defender of your guru? meaning stefan? so i am a "bully and tormentor", "empty and null"?... hmmm... so your words here are words of non-judgment, peaceful, address the facts/charges I have made? hmmm... seems to me you are not using your own mind but it is being used by another...
think for yourself...
I do understand your thought that a fear of the truth could result in an accusation of a personal attack, and that could apply in other cases. Please note that the only quotations that I made in my prior post involved you using the words "chumsky" and "alpha ape" to describe a person. I did not say anything about your argument against Stefan Molyneux's integrity in the conversation with Chomsky.
@FreeEach: you must very well understand that criticising stefan's character in this domain will only result in *summon random stefan followers* to direct their fangs at you. The context of what you say could be very well true, but the delivery is too straightforward that it will look like an attack, and in this part of the internet where stefan is held highly, you have to be cunning in delivery.
You are using the word "fangs" to apply the idea of animal-like or non-thinking behavior to other people. This is not fair. Did anyone call you an animal?You say that you have to be "cunning" to deliver the truth. Well, that is not true. If you have the truth, then all you need is to be consistently nice. If the truth was that Stefan had a lack of integrity, you present great argumenation, and you stayed consistently nice, then you could bring the truth to people. Once anyone starts to call people names, the conversation is destroyed.
Thanks for your concern...but I will continue to speak the truth as directly as possible with politeness but also humor...it will be interesting to see if there will be any others like the Clarke fellow!
From your comments here I guess Stefan has a rather standard (semi-?) Sheeple following which I think happens with almost any relatively strong personality. I would recommend to you and all of his more emotionally attached followers what is probably the two best books on understanding the "vatic" power of charismatics: The Ghost Dance by Weston LaBarre and The Guru Papers by Joel Kramer & Diana Alstad.
You said that you "will continue to speak the truth... with politeness", but you did not do this previously. Therefore, the word "continue" is not true.So, you use the word "sheeple" in an attempt to apply the idea of mindlessness and non-thinking to a group of people. It always bothers me when people, including libertarians, that use this word to describe the majority of people in the world. The word "sheeple" is used by an intellectual bully to make themselves feel superior to others. That superior feeling may feel real, but it based on nothing. Everyone is an individual, and to try to attack their self worth or person hood is just wrong. Please stop. I might have appreciated your recommendations to the books that you listed if you were not insulting people in the same paragraph.
I would like everyone to stop for a moment, and think about their next possible response. While you are writing it, if you are calling any person a name in any way, then delete that sentence, and move on. You can not figure out whether a person has integrity if you do not keep your own.
-
so, STEFAN MOLYNEUX you have been OUTED!!!! hoisted/hosted on your own petard with a hole blown through your wholeness!
ouch! so listening to this I must conclude you are not a man of integrity, not whole, you still have pieces at war within you that need integrating...not unusual...so i hope you can grow through this?
At this point, your conversation has moved into a personal attack, which is not only an insult to philosophy, it is an insult to truth and falsehood. I want to also point out that you are crafting a statement in a warlike way, which is frustrating considering that war is immoral.
well, stefan, let's see if you love the truth more than your need to be right and to grow your show, which it seems this is why you had chomsky on...you are a CHUMSKY for CHOMSKY! ah, alpha apes dressed as philosophers!
Again, you are using words that (I theorize) are intended to entice other FDR readers to say things that are anti-philosophical (which is what you might find in other forums). However, many of us can now see the words fashioned by bullies and tormentors as empty and null. Those are the words you add to this anti-conversation.
-
I've had this thought before too. It's the same idea presented in my original post. Why do people say they are going to help only to bail on the project with little to no warning? When I see situations like this one above where someone is clearly being beligerent and it makes people take off, I have to wonder if people have ever percieved me in the same light even when I might have thought I was just stanidng up for myself.
Is there a particular instance where you think that this may have happened? In your history with your parents, did they ever make you feel like you were in a position where you were standing up for yourself, but they told you or made you feel like you were being a bully?
-
Ivan: I'm not sure. Maybe they like me this way. Oddly I don't live with them though, they pay for me to live in another city. They say they really want me to get a job. I wonder if I they would secretly hate it if I reached my full potential.
I was just curious why they pay for you to live in another city if you are not employed. Meaning, why would they not just have you live with them to save the money?
-
It goes from a discussion to bullying when I propose a compromise like "Tell him you want him to remember his script, and then give him a spare one to keep productivity flowing" that way he is expressing his feeling of frustration that scripts were forgotten, but he is also fostering an environment where people feel like more than just a tool having orders barked at them and the group can continue to work without a five minute halt to listen to someone being berated. This potential compromise is then met with "No, I'm still going to do what I did before." Then if I continue to try to show from experience how that type of behavior is not conducive to a creative environment I get completely shut down with the same type of responses "No, I'm not going to do that." Only louder and much more agressive.
I mean, I'm not sure I can explain it better than this. This one conversation is also not an isolated incident. It is more like one stitch in a pattern that would provide much more context.
If this guy is just beyond reason for you and the group, why did you/do you stay around him? Is there money involved, or is it a voluntary project? Is there any want to get a group discussion without him to potentially remove him from the project? There is a certain point where if you try to be kind to people, and they simple continue to be mean or possibly want to be tyrannical in this case, that you just ostracise them (preferably with anyone who agrees with your reasoning for the ostracism). Back to the original topic, I do not see how you can be a bully by defending yourself against a bully. However, you still give them false justification by using swear words, and even giving them false justification is a sour thing.
-
Basically this conversation, or this type of conversation (which I won't bore you with anymore) ends up devolving into Man A screaming about how he is right and Man A is unwilling to compromise because he feels like he is in charge, and that he is right. The conversation ends up with lots of NO! I'M NOT GOING TO DO THAT! type responses coming from Man A which are what I see as "monolithic" these uncompromising, no room for negotiation, get out of my house type responses which have to be countered with "You're being an unreasonable douche" type of monolithic responses from me.
If someone is irrationally screaming at you, then they being abusive/bullying. In my opinion, I do not think that you should ever respond with words like "douche" or other adjectives that are used to invite other people to attack you harder. I would recommend saying that a specific statement or set of words is not reasonable because of whatever your reasoned opinions are.
Honestly, I still do not understand how one goes from the "etc etc" to him screaming at you.
However, I would like to point out that the second conversation you seem to serve Man A instead of having a more fruitful discussion because you are not addressing his to definition of the words in the discussion. He says "Yeah, but we are trying to be serious.", and then you say "Sometimes people forget stuff.". The word "serious" is defined as the objective of the event, and it is subjectively defined. So, when you pass that up, he believes that you agree that the Man B is not "serious". However, "Man B" is obviously serious with his kids if he tucks them into bed at night, and them comes over to work on the movie. He says "I spend a lot of time trying to make this thing work", then you say "Okay, meaning what?". If I heard that statement, then I would probably reaffirm that I agree that he does work hard to make this work. Mirroring that opinion does not mean that other people are not working hard. It is just recognizing his input into the project. You said "meaning what" almost in a dismissive way. Then you say "Yeah, I get that, but do you want to get mad about it or do you want to be productive?". Notice that you are telling him that he is becoming "mad" without him telling you first. I know that there is body language, tone, and what not. However, that person may not actually be becoming mad in their mind. So, to accuse someone of becoming "mad" might actually trigger them to become more so that way. It may be better to allow them to express that feeling to you first, or pose it as a question. That may be why he says "What?" right after that sentence. I also just wanted to point out that earlier in the conversation you said "I get that" after he said "he should put in the same effort as me", but then near the end, you say "So just because he doesn't want to contribute the same percentage as you he should leave? That's not cool.", which contradicts your earlier statement. I am only pointing this out so that it can be thought about.
I still feel like I am missing the point where it goes from a discussion to someone being a bully. You say that the discussion devolves, but even at the point where the conversation was at in the end, the destination of the conversation was not necessarily to end with the use of power. I am also curious as to why you define bullying as non-negotiation followed by the use of power. It seems to me that bullying would only require the use of power (verbal or physical abuse) against you. So, the non-negotiation is annoying, but not necessary for the bully. I mean, he might let you pick your poison, right?
-
I would not describe myself as a bully. I was mercilessly bullied as a kid and so I've always tried to have a sense of compassion and understanding when it comes to other people because I don't want to do to anyone what was done to me. But sometimes when I defend myself from those who I feel are trying to take advantage of me I often times am monolithic in my response to them in an effort to counter them being monolithic to me. Because that is what a bully is right? Someone who does not negotiate but tells you what is going to happen, or what should happen and that you have no say so becasue they say so, and to get away from someone who does not wish to negotiate you might have to also be someone who does not negotiate. But this monolithic response can come across as being mean to someone who is convinced that they are right. So I sometimes wonder if responding the way I do, or the way I have seen others respond to similar situations is them being a bully who is just trying to get their way to the detrement of everyone else, or if they are just being harsh in an effort to defend themselves. It seems like the issue has a lot of gray areas.
Your defensive actions are not an offensive actions. Defense is not offense. If no one is on offense, there is no need for defense. The offense might be tricking you into believing that you are also on offense so that you will self-attack and defeat yourself, and therefore the true offense wins while the true defense loses.
Would you mind giving a real-life referense with conversation examples where the other person is "monolithic to you" and you are "monolithic in your response". Specifically, I am curious as to what dialogue is considered "monolithic".

Maybe an online turn-based game so that everyone can take their turn whenever their children are asleep. Might take a few years to finish though

Lets say I can see their house from mine and I can see him beating his wife. They are total recluses and I don't want to go over and whoop his ass personally. How would that work? I'm not trying to be pendantic, I just feel that exercises such as this only help refine a philosophy.
Your DRO would offer to handle crime that not only happens directly to you, but happens in your local area. I would not want my children living anywhere near an abuser, and if I found out about it, my DRO would need to handle the situation, or they would not be my DRO anymore. I would have no more assumption of safety for my kids if they want to go outside to play, and this guy would be in the proximity to hurt them. Why wouldn't I have a DRO that would handle that situation?
