Or they can have a trusted adult put them in the microwave for a few seconds to soften them up a bit first

There's no quote from Biden (aka 'his words') in the article you linked saying he'll be a 1 term president. That's reality.

Oh you can definitely be both of those things, you just can't say it out loud publicly. That's the only thing he messed up in Republicans' eyes

Yes absolutely, the polite thing to do would be to stare at the man's disfigurement for the entire meal...

That wealth "materializes" when his company gets a new loan based on the paper value of his assets as collateral, even if he hasn't materially realized that value yet. If you can get rewarded with new loans and government contracts based on paper valuations, you can pay taxes based on paper valuations.

The answer is money and eliminating competition for money

When someone breaks into your home you don't have much of an opportunity to figure out why. Many times the reason is not to steal things and buy meth. Sometimes it's to hurt, rape, or kidnap someone. Why take that chance?

You might be picturing someone slowly walking up and executing a pleading, weaponless burglar in cold blood. In reality these things happen with mere seconds to make a decision about the safety of you and your family. Again, Why take the chance?

If you're breaking into a house, getting shot is a calculated risk you have chosen to take. If it happens, it's only your fault. You had the choice to not put yourself or anyone else in harm's way, and you chose the other option.
