In no particular order...
What is worth defending?
- My family
- My country
- My rights
- My faith
- My life
What is worth dying for?
- My family
- My country
- My rights
- My faith
What is worth living for?
- My family
- My country
- My rights
- My faith
Take notice that my "stuff" is nowhere on that list. For good reason; no matter what the circumstance, objects of possession are not worth a human life. Period. And no, I don't give a damn what Texas law says; to me it's an issue of morality, not legality.
