That's the perfect way to respond to this debate.

I must admit that I get hinkie around my supposed brothers who crow about what they would do to a robber or aggressor. Almost like they would like nothing better than to try out those brand new hollowpoints.

Now I must (sadly) admit that there are things in life that can get me riled enough to react in a purely visceral manner. As you will remember, I think guys who torture animals deserve some 'elective surgery.' If my wife called out in terror, I might shoot to 'wound.'

But if this topic can be discussed with any aspect of logic, your actions in defense may indeed end someone's life. End someone's life. End someone's life.

I've had enough psychiatry treatments in my life to know that I don't want to add PTSD to the pile I already have.
