I definitely agree on medical marijuna. We see eye-to-eye on drugs, I think.

Adam of The Metropolis Times has some good observations about how self-defense and property rights apply to abortion [1].

“a fetus does not have the option to leave the womb. It is a captive. If a trespasser becomes stuck on your property, you don't have the right to kill them and drag their body out. Furthermore, the fetus did not sneak into the woman's womb, but was created there without the fetus having the ability to refuse the invitation… Airlines can't toss passengers out of an airplane, even if they are being extremely unruly or causing trauma to the other passengers. A consistent application of property law would require a person to wait for the natural removal of another person from their body rather than an earlier one, if the earlier removal would result in certain death. “

Thanks for the comment!

Your blog is very interesting — focusing on issues of crime and the importance of self-defense.

What is your view of Florida's “Castle Doctrine” [1], and allowing lethal defense of property?
