Ya'll keep saying a dead deer wasn't worth my life, that never ever occurred to me. The only thing running in my mind was was it worth killing two idiots for?
Regolith,
I knew someone was going to catch that. It did occur to me that technically speaking the guys that shot first may have had the upper hand as far as claiming the deer was concerned. I admit to being caught up in the adrenaline and testosterone pumped heat of the moment. I had the drop and wasn't going to let these guys get the upper hand on me which pretty much meant I'd have to shoot them if one of them made a stupid move. One started edging apart and I had to put a stop to that as it was.
Common sense and sensibilities came through and I walked away. What can I say except that I was in my 20's?
