Yes I think that, considering the words he used, he was mentally masturbating with the gun. What on EARTH is the justification for having a pump-action shotgun if it isn't to kill. I mean, if you need to shoot foxes and other vermin, an ordinary single-barrelled shotgun that requires to be broken and reloaded after each shot is perfectly adequate.

Midnite, it seems to me that in the incident described, you were already two onto one. If I were the other guy, I'd be looking for a way out, even without a gun. The gun was not necessary. Thus you weren't saving your friend, you were primarily restating your desire to become a killer some time. I bet you laughed afterwards!



Thorne says: A militia doesn't necessarily have to fight against foreign invaders. They can also fight to defend against insurgents, criminals and terrorists.

That is true. But your lawmakers were contemplating foreign invaders at the time, not thieves and robbers. Nklion was better able to state what the constitution says than I was, so I repeat what he said: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." That does not include criminals, and I haven't heard that US citizens have formed an anti-terrorist militia in any town, city or state. So that's not why they are holding guns, is it?

Just why I almost didn't join into this discussion, it never fails and you start talking about politics some freaking yo-yo has always got to insult somebody else, I'm going to prove who is the most intelligent of the two and not insult ThisYouWillDo, I will say this, you don't know me, and it's probably to my advantage.

Just to let you know I've spent two years in law enforcement, and there were a few times that I had to make the decision on whether or not to shoot someone, I chose not to, but rest assured if I would've pulled the trigger they would have been dead, no ifs, ands, or buts about it, if someone breaks into my house and steals my TV set, more power to them, if all they are after its property, let them have it, but let them threaten my life or try to do bodily harm to me, fuck em, I will do everything in my power to make sure that they never walk out of the door of my house, if you don't understand what I am saying, I will kill them with no hesitation, and lots of regrets.

As far as the militia part of this discussion goes, it was not only to protect ourselves from foreign invaders, but to also protect ourselves from our own government that this was written in to the Constitution. If you want to continue this discussion without insulting somebody that I will be glad to join in, but insult me again
