Yes I understand that, and I know in America it's normalised to have guns. But in many other civilised countries it is not normal. And neither do we have mass shootings. Ideally there would be less guns and nuclear weapons in the world, but until everyone can agree to that it's not going to happen.
But I don't believe making guns cool, and talking about weapons that kill people, is good. Are they better than the spiritual weapons we have if we live in Christ, or do his weapons really not cut it enough?

I see so what you are saying is you never pulled the trigger unless it was an absolute must. There was no hate in your heart at the time. Never any enjoyment. It was the hardest thing you could ever do every time, but you had to act in a split moment as a marine. And yes I intentionally put murder I wanted to see whether you would justify killing and not answer.
These are two men who volunteered their lives to keep other people, most complete strangers, safe and free from the tyranny of others.
The Bible also states that we should give honor to those to whom honor is due (Rom. 13:7), and that there is no greater love than to lie down your life for another person (John 15:13.) These men have offered their lives, if need be, as a sacrifice to preserve the lives of others.
This is just my own humble opinion, but I believe people who are willing to sign their life over to a country's government in order to voluntarily protect the other citizens who live there are due quite a bit of honor and respect.
P.S. One thing I do know about those who have killed others, whether from the standpoint of defense or offense, whether intentional or not, are still not beyond the reach of God's great love... and forgiveness.
And, if there are any out there who choose to keep these matters, such as the question you ask, between themselves and God, they certainly have the right to do so. Even if God IS pushing them to confess to someone, they certainly have no obligations to a stranger on the internet.
God bless our brave and much-appreciated military personnel and their long-suffering families.

Yeah.....you just have Muslims stabbing to death and cutting the heads off of your disarmed people and raping women all over Europe....You have no clue what is coming to Europe and England....the genocide because you all are weaponless and defenseless to the oncoming hoard and Muslim invasion....you should pity your own countrymen and those of Europe because your politicians have disarmed the people and made them sitting ducks.....!
Yes I don't think Jesus was a warmonger. Unlike Mohammed who was, and believed in killing. Interesting how people might be against Muslims for their beliefs while embracing the same belief themselves. Both believe in killing the enemy, that it is the will of God/Allah, and yet are no different for thinking the same thing. Old Testament views before Jesus came to teach something different.
Arming everyone is not the answer to terrorism. It may be the answer to invasion, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. America has always been a paranoid country to a lot people, but not particularly if you are American. To me I see the whole right to bear arms, as a little insane. I'm glad I don't live in a country where people walk around with guns, and gun crime is at an insane level. To me that would be a kind of hell. How can you have a loving society, when you just have people walking around with death machines?
The answer to the Muslim crisis in Europe is not guns. The fact is, they have already arrived and what are we going to do about that?

This view reeks a little of ignorance....99% of gun owners are law abiding and criminals will always find ways to commit crimes...
So tell me....when Lee Rigby was murdered in broad daylight by being stabbed to death and then beheaded why did no one stop it? Did they use GUNS or knives? Why did no British citizens step up and stop it?
SEE in AMERICA a law abiding citizen would have stepped up and defended the innocent soldier and capped the MUSLIM MURDERERS........
AND if not for AMERICA and the MILLIONS of men who grew up shooting guns and then coming to YOUR AID....you would be speaking GERMAN....
YOU really should open your eyes to the facts.....serious!
AGAIN I ASK....why did no one help LEE RIGBY..............??

England has had their share in crazy crap just like any crazy crap that happens around the world. England has 50 million plus to United States 300 million plus. Just because England does allow gun ownership doesn't meant there isn't people running around in England killing people please it isn't some sugar cubes and tea setting going on around in England.

Violent crime in England and Wales has risen by 24%, including a 9% rise in knife crime and a 7% rise in gun crime in the 12 months to June, according to police recorded crime figures.
The number of murders in England and Wales also jumped 20% to 681, a rise of 144 – the highest level for more than five years.
Police figures also show that the number of reported rapes and other sexual offences rose by 14%, reflecting a slowing of the recent increase in reporting rates for these types of crime.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said the 24% rise in violent crime was largely due to improvements in recording practices and increased coverage.

Amen!!! That armor is in the word of the Lord.
We find in scripture that there were holy wars when God asked men to go to war against evil. Deciding if a war is holy or not was not up to men, if it was a holy war man was directly told so. We also find in scripture that when the goal of war is to protect life we are to go to war. That is the case of a murderer, when if there is a witness to a murder so it is certain a person is a murderer our government is to authorize killing him so can not murder again.
At the time of Noah man was authorized to use meat as food so animals were killed for food. Again, it follows the universal principle of the Lord that we are to preserve life and that sometimes requires killing. Killing for sport would be wrong. War of conquest or for man's reasons would be wrong.
