101. playing with the wrong person

"How does Adams' exception for "Private self defense" fit the anti's argument?"

First, of course: "anti" what? Just idle curiosity.

My actual answers:

- Who cares? He really is just a dead rich white guy, you know. And *I* really don't give a fig what he said, and any more or less of a fig than I do about what anybody else has ever said, in terms of what is right and desirable in a society.

- Who knows? Does what he said carry the same weight as a provision in your constitution? When the provision in the constitution differs from what he said (and ya just cain't prove it don't), which prevails?
