Anyone actually - want to shoot?

I am once more incensed by the anti brigade re carry and even simple firearm's possession.

Do ''they'' really, in truth - see us as folks who are lusting to cap someone? Sheesh. Even in a situation of crisis and lawlessness - I'll wager that your average responsible guy is far from keen to let loose. I know I am.

Bottom line tho is - in extremis we need and deserve that option - but hey - those poor folks in NO cannot be trusted - I know, I am repeating what I said elsewhere but, what the heck happened to the 2A.

This is praying on my mind - and it keeps my blood pressure well elevated. Sorry - I am only ranting (again!). I respect life but not when mine is deprived of said respect.

Oh God no, I don't want to shoot anyone. I'd think my worst liability in any defense situation would be that I would hesitate for fear of hurting someone.

I can't afford to shoot someone - the lawyers fees, the job putting me on admin leave without pay, the loss of my only pistol into evidence for years, oh, no, I am NOT looking forward to that.
Beats being dead, I will grant you that...:)...dead people can't hire lawyers to sue the scumbags....

How they must secretely envy our independence and capability for survival.
How they must dream of the freedom from undefined fears for their safety.
How they must rage within rather shed their shackles of victimization.

Shoot rhymes with suit. Breath beats death.

The gun confiscation in NO has me on edge as it does you Chris. It's just flat wrong!!

"At the discretion of 'Your' Government, we have decided to suspend the Second Amendment of the Constitution just for a little while, just for your own safety."

What kind of simple-minded liberal sheepdip for brains bureaucrat came up with this idea?

Hey guys and gals, shooting someone is not what I want to do. However, yes we do have those that make good everyday citizens look bad because some people do want to plug someone and are just chomping at the bit to do it. Then when its done they feel lost and traumatized because taking another persons life is far from Hollywood or romantic.

Chris,

What I have learned talking with anti-rights people is this.

They seem to be very emotional.
They seem to have little control over their emotions.
They believe everyone is like them.

I've been flat out told by more than one that if they had a gun with them in traffic they would start shooting people they get so mad. So they attribute this same lack of control over emotions to everyone, because of their belief that they are so good that everyone is like them.

Some really do believe that wearing a gun will turn you into a blood thirsty killer because they have no doubt they would become one with a gun in their hands.

I no sooner want to shoot someone than I want to crash my truck into someone head on at 100 mph. However, if someone is threatening me or my family, then I will use that amount of force necessary to stop that threat. If that means I have to shoot them, then I will.

-Scott-
