1. You kick his ass (which could end up being fatal for either party) or call the cops. Both options are better than death matches.SultanP said:1. First off, how would you solve the problem of someone hitting on your girl now, when duels aren't legal? Do that even if duels are legal, it wouldn't have to affect your life.
2. The reason I think duels should be legal, but have all of the safeguards to stop it from being abused
3. I'm completely confident that you could find people who would want to do it if they could, and I think they should.
4. It's about freedom for me, and the fact that two consenting people couldn't duel if they want to, without hurting anyone else.
5.And I wouldn't ever participate in a duel myself
6.defend the right of two consenting adults to do what they want to each other.
7.Also, I haven't ever heard of a woman worth having who would encourage her man to use violence against someone else.
2. Impossible, there are so many loopholes in things that aren't nearly as serious as dueling. What happens to the people who get screwed over while you're trying to close these gaps in the legal system? Also, new loopholes are discovered over time. A legal system preventing abuses is a moot point because it can't be implemented effectively.
3. Why are you so eager to watch people kill each other? I have serious questions about your psyche.
4. You need to read both fictional and historical accounts of real duels. Many involve people who really rather would not have been in them. Also, I'd love for you to have to explain to your parents, lover, siblings, boss, and friends as to why you might die tomorrow because you're going to duel someone. You encompass the hopes, dreams, and love of more than just yourself. Even the assholes. Many people would be hurt and lasting feuds would be created begetting more and more duels and court cases.
5. So, you just admitted there is no reason to have duels in the first place! EXACTLY what I thought you'd say. Thank you for proving my point. There is no reason to involve yourself in a death match, ever.
6. Murder, is not a right. End of discussion.
7. Relationships are more complicated than that.
