The reason women were brought up was because you were sure to make it clear that this issue was a matter of concern, since it was the possible weakening of boys, not girls, after all, to you, boys should be doing the majority of defending, since according to you once more, 99% of boys are stronger.
and the "ghetto" comment made about rappers being alowed to be aggresive is a very big sterotype.
i mean i know i dont want to see a bunch of grown men running around fighting over something and getting thrown in jail for the night for no reason.
I'm not so sure it is a deliberate plot to emasculate the US's young men - I think rather that it is politicians who in an attempt to make a name for themselves and gain notoriety, come up with "wouldn't it be nice if..." type laws that are pretty much the ruin of the nation.

And I did go to public school and back then fighting was a part of everyday life it was just not taken seriousily. No one went nuts over a black eye.

Oh how dare you twist my words so, to serve your own male dominating purposes. I was sure to include, one of the police to arrive could be a woman, as they also serve as police, since they are equally qualified.

You can still use reasonable force to defend your things right? I know you can't shoot to kill but who would want to unless you're sick in the head? I mean, you shoot out the guys legs or his arms or something and call the cops. Makes sense to me and I'm pretty sure that right will never be taken away.

The legs ? The arms ? I don't know how it is NZ, but here in Belgium, all the cops will tell you to shot in the head or the heart. Otherwise, if the guy is just wounded, he will sue you,then you'll go in jail and you'll have to give him tons of bucks.
In my country we have 3 choices :
1) you call the police ( But they won't come. And if they come, it will be ALLWAYS to late. ( you're dead, or raped, or robbed...etc...)
2) you shot the guy and if he's just wounded, you know you won a trip to #land.
3) you shot him and you're lucky enough to kill him. And if he didn't have a gun, be sure to have a second gun ( a non-declared gun !!! ) to put on his dead hands. In this last case, it's better to have a strong will and a very very cold blood.
Talk about choices, isn't it ?
