I just did.

Personally, no I wouldn't be able to tell in a split second whether someone has a gun.

Police are better trained though.

By armed I mean holding a gun or reaching for something when they are told not to move.

Police are trained to identify a weapon from an imitation firearm or other object.

So you would be ok with police shooting anyone who they thought did something illegal?

Ok fair enough.

He should be able to, but he shouldn't need to.

What?

I'm saying unless the criminal poses a threat to anyone they shouldn't be shot.

When it's an unarmed criminal.

A police officer cannot be the judge, jury and executioner.

Technically, I would say no, as the definition of murder is 'The unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.' Since the military's job is to kill I'm pretty sure it's not illegal for them to kill enemies (unless they are surrendering or unarmed).

Morally though, I would say yes, as a lot of wars are caused by a disagreement about something, be it religion, culture, etc. If an ordinary citizen killed someone because they disagreed with them, it would be murder. If someone killed someone to gain access to their resources it would be murder.

I'm not against the military, as it is essential in some circumstances, but I do think the west has made the Middle East a worse place, but then doesn't understand why terrorist organisations thrive there. If a foreign army bombed your country, killing thousands of civilians and then just leaving once they had 'won', it's no surprise some people there have a hatred of the people who took everything from them.

I'm not justifying the actions of terrorist groups, but we have more to do with it than we care to admit.

But specifically concerning monogamy, why is it wrong?

You might not be into it, but if it doesn't effect anyone else it's not a problem.

It's the same as being gay, a cross dresser, etc. Just because it's not your personal preference, doesn't automatically mean it's bad.

If everyone involved in the relationship is aware and ok with the relationship involving more than just 2 people, why should they be stopped?

It's not harming anyone if everyone involved is fine with it.

Of course cheating is not the same as this, as one partner hasn't agreed to it.

If god is all knowing and all powerful, why would he need to make changes?

He should never make mistakes if he creates everything he should know how everything should work.

I've literally never heard that in my life.

I'm from UK by the way.
