I was being purposely absurd about shooting people in the face to prove a point.

But since you would actually play counterstrike IRL if these nanobots were invented, I'd gladly take the opposing side to your team.

When (not if) I win, I'll emphatically take over those sex parties, but leave the cigars and smoke (not really my thing).

You really think technology will make you immortal. I bet my mortal life that you didn't take a STEM degree. You really are a delusional joke.

    It's a hypothetical and it's making you hopping mad, jumping all around it. It's a moral issue.

    You know what? Your right, when someone's mad it is a moral issue. When your face gets shot, and you mad about it, it is not a question of fact but a moral question.

    Shooting a gun is one thing, the trajectory of the bullet is another thing.

    Smoking is not just you. Because of the public effects of smoking, I will be affected and I should be asked to consent. If you see my consent or lack thereof to you smoking as a moral issue than I see your non consent to your face being shot as a moral issue to be corrected.
