Anyone could make an argument to put someone else's views down. I could say , you probably drive a car. You drive a car because you like to , or it gets you somewhere faster .... however do you know how many bugs you kill, CO2 you release into the air , natural resources you use up by driving cars? yet you still choose to drive a car....

or Calgarians love going to the stampede. It's fun they enjoy it but with going to and supporting that event they are perpetuating a cycle of chuckwagon races where horses die needlessly. What #######s
( Note: I dont believe either of these things but just pointing out arguments people could make about what other people do)
I could go on and on...
You should worry about yourself and less about what others do. I shot turtles as a 7 yr old kid because my dad said, see if you can hit the turtle on that rock across the pond. I didnt think twice about it and I still wouldn't. Guess what, there are still as many turtles in that pond today. I didn't get off on killing things because I was killing things. I was doing because that's what people did and I just did it . Is that right or wrong? Who am I to judge? but more importantly who the hell are you to judge?
Oh I'll give you a couple Socrates quotes you can chew on too..
"The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing."
"Strong minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, weak minds discuss people."
and finally
"“When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser.”

I hope you can understand why your ridiculously inept argument based on moral subjectivism utterly fails when you start spouting it in
this thread, of all threads.
Every single one of us is in here because of the actions someone took, actions which resulted in deaths, and you're sitting there telling me I shouldn't worry about what others do? Are you ####ting me? What do you think we're all in here for? Discussing potential gun law for no reason? Do you think we shouldn't give a #### about what the shooter did, because he might have "believed" it to be right? Do you think we have no right to judge the shooter's actions? Who the #### am I to decide whether shooting those people was right or wrong, right? In your land of moral subjectivism there is no being held responsible in the eyes of others because, hey, it's just my belief!
Killing for kicks is wrong. Period. Your Dad encouraging you to do it doesn't make me feel any better. The taking of life is the one thing that should be everyone's business. That, and attributing quotes to people that didn't say them. Do another Google search.
